He usually ships DHL so seems pretty quick, forget, but like 10-14 days maybe? The light is a beast - I like to compare it to a HD 2010 on steroids -- it's simple, over-sized, but gets outstanding results. Battery carrier isn't at the same level as a TN31, TK75, or even the new 7G9v2, but it's not awful budget either.
What puts it over the top now, I believe, is the real AR lens shipping now -- my tests show a definite bump - two Shockers I tested with the new AR lens get over 3,000 lumens stock. It seems to be better than the UCL/p lens, unless it's variations on my side with the lightbox, or other production mods I'm not aware of, dunno.
Without doubt, go for the NW! I highly doubt that the brightness difference would be noticeable, and the fantastic color rendition with the NW definitely WILL be noticeable.
Did anyone have any problems trying to check out? After I pick the US as my country I can’t pick anything in the next two blanks. So where does the city and state go?
Yes. They told me don’t select any of that stuff on the top drop-down (and do not put in a postal code) and just enter your full address in the address box. Then it goes through.
