Deal alert; 18650 size zoomie $3.50 e-bay

This is one of my favorite budget lights. It’s a very small zoomie that takes an 18650 battery. It has a good ring free beam.

I have bought from this dealer before, they ship quick.

Cool! Thanks!

Cool, went to buy 2

Says he ships worldwide, except for some reason worldwide doesn’t include the UK :frowning:

Maybe he thought Scotland was going to leave and the UK would cease to exist :bigsmile:

Just be ready to settle in till it arrives:
Estimated arrival date: Oct 14th & Nov 18th

Anyone know if it has memory/next-mode-memory?

Does it have a solid hollow pillow hole? :smiley:

Got 4 of them, I think these are the hollow solid pillow hole lights! (?) The guy’s at work like my ZeusRay solid hollow pillow hole light! So they can have these! Not as good maybe! LOL!

I have never bothered to take one apart. My Son actually grabbed mine and has been using it stock for about a year now. Just don’t expect convoy quality from a $3.50 cent light. Still I like this light a lot better than a stock Sipik clone which is about the only thing else like this for the price.

Thanks, I ordered two. I also picked up two the svelte, cheap 14500/AA zoomies with 3mode drivers in black.

I just got email saying that my order shipped, but does it take like 2 months to get to the U.S.?

NO WAY! Just got the notice that mine have been shipped? 8:21pm? So it’s 8:21am there? Now let’s see how long it takes to get to the door….hmmm

You didn’t get any tracking, right? I did not.

Last time I ordered from them I didn’t get a tracking number either. It took about 2 weeks for it to arrive. They had a bunch of 502B’s fairly cheap that time. I think they get closeouts or overstocks or something like that.

Nope, no tracking number. 2 weeks not bad?

Wait….why am I seeing them for Price:US $0.99…ah (Shipping:
$2.50 Economy Shipping from outside US)

Definitely would like to see one broken down, just to see how it’s put together

got 2 for $6.88 just to have em…worse comes to worse…I will use em as loaners (and get my SK98 back from mother in law :D) [not like I don’t have a bunch of 18650’s :stuck_out_tongue:

Most of these have XPE on the cheaper version. There’s a chance vendor don’t even know what the emitter really is.

But at $3.50 shipped I’ll bite, can always use another beater.

Yep the ones I got were both XPE too and I would almost bet that these are. Probably why the beam is better on them.

I think this is the same light and ships to UK. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1200Lumens-CREE-XM-L-XP-HOT-3-Modes-Light-Flashlight-Torch1-18650-Battery-DS-UK2-/400760419066?pt=UK_SportsLeisure_Camping_LightsLanternsTorches&hash=item5d4f2eb2fa

Anybody know what the HOT stands for?

I’d guess “HOT” means it’s really cool.

“CREE XM-L XP” — clearly the seller doesn’t know what it is.

I see a whole lot of cheap ‘zoom’ lights from China showing up on Ebay lately.
