Tmart Group Buy - Closed

I wasnt serious about blaming anyone except myself Streamer. I should have known better than to twist the reflector if its that tight down, I assume thats what i did. Not that it matters, so long as I havent damaged it, I now have the XML2 to put on a copper sinkpad, and into the copper pill I have. Might look to drive it with a single mode driver, hot.

The o-ring on the light I got broke too… it was the one that connected the battery tube to the head.

Me too. :frowning:

That big glass thing on the front, if you look through it during re-assembly, you can see if the reflector is seating properly before something goes crunch.

But its upside down… :smiley:

We are talking about a tiny amount, maybe .2mm. Nothing got crunched as I had pulled it down a couple of times, and each time the light worked perfectly. Beam was nice too, not ringy or anything, Im betting that will change now. Im guessing it just didnt like being held tight, and twisted. The amount of tightness seemed appropriate to keep everything from rattling, and keep the LED in the reflector.

How bout an update on this?

another day with no delivery…

My lights had hit european ground a while ago. They have been idling at the customs for quite a while. Guess this might explain the delay for european customers…
One was delivered without going through customs, one is stuck…

On my Tangsfire, the oring between the bezel and glass lens is slightly too big, and it lets water in. Can anyone suggest a place to get a quality replacement?

The update is, I have passed on to tmart, all the PM information I have received, so it’s up to them now. There’s not much more I can do from there. I do know that many have been contacted by them via PM, since this info has been passed on to them.

Received mine. Black Tangsfire with EAST092 chip 06N03 (should be good). Unfortunately comes with friggin’ next-mode memory, but easily removed with pencil. Nice, big and shiny aluminium reflector. I can see why people love this light.

Plain old XML, cold white. Quite bright from first turn on, without any mod. I haven’t tested amperage but I don’t really mind at this point, it works well, it uses the proper driver and honestly T-Mart hasn’t made any claim that it should be 5A or anything. That claim was based on O-L’s review and the assumption that they’re all built the same.

In all, I’m very satisfied with mine, especially for $20. It’s excellent. No complaint from me.

Thanks O-L and T-Mart for this great deal.

OL, you've gone above and beyond for all of us on this one. And many many thanks to you.

My post was basically to stir TMart. The squeakiest wheel usually gets the first oiling...LOL

do they who did not receive the lights yet have to pm to you if something is wrong?

or have we to contact someone else?

If you did not get the light, or if anyone just wants to "squeak"Wink, then you can PM louis huang, here on BLF. Anyone can contact him here. That is how tmart are supposed to reach you anyhow.

I just "squeaked" Mr Louis Huang..

thanks for all the help and time you give OL!

Finally today I received famous HD2010.
It’s NoName, gray :Sp version. They try to put 23mm wide o-ring under the bezel |( that’s beyond stupidity, they did that in purpose, to piss as off. Of Course it broke but they put it anyway. Box was crushed until pieces started to fall off but more annoying I can’t unscrew the driver retaining ring, as if they glued it!!!
When shining at the driver and looking through the wire holes from emitter side I can see it’s the crappy (not the wanted East092) driver and it’s pulling only 2.29A from NCR18650PF @ 4.19V in High mode…

Definitely my first and last purchase from tmart scams…

Still waiting on mine…is the tracking number actually suppose to work?

EDIT: NVM. It finally works/updated today. It’s in Sweden so still might be awhile before it gets to me here in the bay area, california.

I Got a response on replacements.

please dont worry. i will resend the correct flashlight to customer during Next Tuesday.

Sounds like we'll get a new light in the mail. Great!

I have tracked my HD-2010 and it says that it is ‘en route’ to me as of 12 April. It usually takes ten days for an item to reach my place after being marked ‘en route’ by our Postal Services. I should get it anytime next week (I hope). :slight_smile:
