Hi the
Are prices inclusive of free shipping with TRACKING NUMBER? Also, is there a way for me to order the light and 1 extension tube in 1 transaction only? I tried to do a mock order, I can only use either the fl’s copuon code or the ext tube’s. Also, would you know till when is this special pricing available?
Fixed -> Now you can purchase more than one extension tubes at the same time.
No, but you want another. :)
Tracking number is free if the order is more than $40. Otherwise it costs +$1.99.
There are technical reasons not allowing to use the same code for different items. You can order the light and extension separately and ask them to combine the orders (by writing a note to second order, contacting their support, or sending PM to CSgearbest)
The end date is not known, but this won't last forever. :)
Good question. I'll ask them and update here as soon as I get the info.
Dang - though I got 3 Y3's around here already, I'm gonna order at least one more, just dunno how many more . I do love this light - overall quality for the price and a HD2010 format but better, and just finished a MT-G2 mod on one using the stock driver, 2 26650 cells, adding a 0805 R100 resistor, and measured 4.6A at the tail with a MT-G2 on a Noctigon, with a UCL/p lens, getting 2,329 OTF lumens and 43.5 kcd measured at 5m.
Note: all my lumens and kcd measurements are "my own" taken on an older LX1330B meter - kcd taken indoors and lumens in a PVC constructed lightbox, accuracy can be freely debated (CYA all the way...)
I dunno for sure, but thinking ~4.6A, maybe less to the LED. The MT-G2 runs at a higher voltage than a XM-L2, so the voltage output of the 2 cells in series is delivered to the LED, unlike a buck driver for an XM-L2. How this buck driver regulates the MT-G2? No idea... I'm sure there are loss's from the cells to the LED - always is with buck drivers.
Thing with these lights is the batteries and charger cost more than the lights. Ordered one with tubes, thanks for the discount the. I think going to let my in-law buy the batteries. I know giving a gift that doesn’t work is strange, but I can’t get myself to buy new batteries!
Might change my mind though… I’m already 6 batteries behind
Thanks to the for setting this up. I did miss the other GB from GB.
Ordered one plus two tubes. My brother-in-law has been wanting a good cheap thrower to wow his Boy Scout troop on night hikes to spot animals, so he got in on the deal also.
Did I read a thread here about some potential slow shipping with GearBest? I never ordered from them before.
Shipping from GB has been decent for me. Not as fast as FT or IOS, but not like some people experienced. I’m not sure if it was just people outside the USA, but some people had big shipping delays.
