New Roche F6 EDC XM-L2 Single 18650. $20.99 shipped.

I have not yet. I will wait another week before i black-list Banggood to my Do-Not-buy-From list or file a claim to Paypal.

Got a package from BG, and guess what I got... The charger head :) It was actually quite painless. They made an error, they fixed it, I'm fine. Contacting BG via BLF PM could have helped, I don't know.

good!

That’s how I contacted them so we’ll see.

Good to hear :slight_smile: i hope to recieve the same soon.

After the issues noted in this thread I bought one from eBay. from here.

Ordered in the 12th, came yesterday.
Great torch.

I would be very interested in swapping the driver out to add a moonlight mode.

It shows a picture of the charger head , but doesn’t describe it in the title. Does it come with the charger , we’re you expecting to get the charger?

It was ordered, and came, with the charging head.

In the drop down menu next to the “Buy it now” button you can choose whether you want the charger head or not, costs $3.

Well worth the $3

Ok, thanks for the quick reply , folks
Ok , see it now , missed the fine print.

My reflector rattles slightly, which I find quite annoying.
I have loosened the stainless bezel and placed a small spacer under the aluminium reflector to take out the slack.
It works lovely now.

mine came with the charging head ..

this one definately needs a Dr Jones driver ..

Come on Dr. J......

I wonder if the following would work:

1. 3.04 amp Nangj 105c with DrJones Lumodrv driver.
2. Mtn Electronics Zener diode mod to allow the Nanjg to run at higher voltage.
3. Replace emitter with MTG2
4. Run on 2x18350 IMR cells.

Dr. Jones said normal drivers are too big for this light and he was thinking of making one since he liked the light so much . It was my intention before I even bought the light to mod it with one of his drivers so I was a bit sad to hear that there was a size problem . I really like the light and might have bought another if I'd recieved it before they raised the price.The lack of a better driver option is the only thing holding me back... It took 66 days from banggood so the ebay light starts looking really good at this point .Although it's probably just banggood again :P

How big is the driver compartment?

Nangj 105c drivers are 17mm in diameter. But I’ve managed to get them into 15mm compartments by filing the edges down.

thickness

I think thats what I thought I heard

Received my charger head today.

Ordered another one (without charger head) and started developing a driver board.

Unforunately that ebay seller doesn't ship to Germany. Otherwise I'd buy a third one.

Contacted BG: they said they will re-ship charger head. Let´s see if I can eventually get one.
