It's hard to think of a flashlight aside from Surefire that isn't made in China. The biggest difference to me is that Armytek actually communicates with their customers and fixes problems with their lights. Those are two reasons why I never bought a right angle light from their most direct competitor.
Yes, this is why I have been waiting for the Wizard headlamp, hoping for a deal comparable to before with a fixed headlamp. And at least SOME parts are US/Canada
As have I. For years. I almost pulled the trigger on a comparable headlamp, but that competitor could not or would not tell their customers what the limits of their battery tube was. My right angle light will be used for very backpacking trips, and my short and long term expectations are quite high. If Armytek didn't have a high level of support, I wouldn't pay more than $50 for this light.
Have you checked out Illumination Supply? Their price is nice, and they are incredibly quick with shipping....nevermind that right now we're waiting on production.
I figure if I want the most American light I can afford, I'll get a Chinese made host, mod and assemble it with a driver developed by BLF members and manufactured in the US. Maybe someday I'll have the skills and money to mill my own host.
Say I’ve gotta quick easy question for ya I hope? Do you have any idea when you might have more lights available with the xm-l2 u3 emitter? I missed out on the few you had in the barracuda. Hopefully soon, id love to be one of the first to push the Amps on one of these and see how they do, please let me know thanks montanaman
Barracuda XM-L2 U3 was a limmited edition and unfortunately now we do not plan to release any flashlights with XM-L2 U3.
