I don't think so... Only ZeusRay branded, only from the one source of DealMetic.com. freeme - you got a link? Also note the design of most of these SK73 clones is different than the ZeusRay - the ZeusRay has a wider flood mode due to it's closer position of the lens to the LED. I sanded down the crenelation of the bezel on my ZeusRay.
I got my first batch of XM-L2 U3 1A's from Hank at IOS, and replaced the XM-L2 U2 1A I had in the ZeusRay last night. Results are outstanding.
With a fresh Samsung 25R, build is Nanjg with 11 7135's, total of 3.85A, XM-L2 U3 1A on Noctigon, screwed down to pill, 22 AWG wires, replaced the tail switch with an Omten, wired both springs:
3.92A tail reading, lumens (full flood): 1,370 @start, 1,306 @30 secs, throw (zoomed out): 21 kcd (measured at 5 m)
This is the best #'s I've gotten from any zoomie, and it's a 21% boost from the XM-L2 U2 1A I had in there, but, that XM-L2 U2 1A may have been suspect since it had something wrong with the dye (doggie icon showed in zoomed out beam pattern).
Edit: It was just noticed the U3 1A silicone dome touch's the lens at full flood position, just barely. Don't think it's a problem - the silicone softens up when heated with the LED on. Just a matter how hot it gets and if long runtimes in hi will cause damage to the lens. I could pop off the MCPCB and sand it down a little - it's at about 1.53 mm now at the pads, about 1.50 mm where there's no tracing or pads.
Guys, can you give me some advices?
I’m not a really fans of zoomie light…I got an Ultrafire Z5 clone, 2x 18650, about 600/700 real lumens (they sell for 1600 :bigsmile: ) when use 2 good cells like Eagletac…Z5 Trustfire very good flood and nice throw (I have paid it only 9$ shipped)
…and I know that we are talking just about 7,99$ shippend, and seem they are bucks well spend…but, I got to buy others light (my list is long ), and maybe this Zeusray it’s just a copy of Z5 ( just a little more lumens and only 1x18650), and at the moment can save 7,99$ for something else.
Get a Zeusray, you really can’t go wrong. You will probably prefer it over your Z5, as it will be twice as bright, half the weight, and you will begin to feel like Zeus himself once you use it.
Also it works great attached to a hat using the included clip. For me this is the best feature, and it is secure enough for walking jogging or biking.
The number isn’t quite realistic. I order when the back-order number is about –7, but the item arrive just around same time as first batch. THEN the back-order number still same.
Order another unit, haven’t arrive (longer period than last time, forgot what no. am I in the queue though) it aren’t that bad as it seems.
I ordered one on the 26th Sep. Didn’t hear anything and not received anything. I emailed Dealmatic on the 9th Oct, this was their reply:
Hoping it’s now shipped, but I didn’t pay for a tracking number, so have no idea. I also did the express checkout via PayPal. Thought I’d get a confirmation email, but no, only PayPals.
Hope the light turns up, else it’ll have to be a PayPal claim. Happy to give it a few more weeks yet though.
Dealmetic shows four lights in stock now and the sidebar on the main page no longer says it’s back-ordered.
Checking my order status, that still shows it back-ordered.
I emailed to ask about shipping my order — order was placed Sept. 17th.
I’d buy more, if I knew they were shipping and shipping good quality stock at this point.
I ordered on 2014-09-18, it’s been more than a month and I received no shipping notification. Should I wait or ask for a refund? I contacted dealmetic 2 weeks ago, they said they will ship in one week from then.
hm, the Ali Express link posted at trying to consolidate all ZeusRay posts
for the same light from their other web store for $14
has a “$5 coupon”
but strangely after they tell you you got the coupon available
and try to buy the light
it has no coupon discount available.
Which cup is the little pea under? shuffle… shuffle ….shuffle …
Oh, and nevermind those $5 off coupons they claim to offer on the page: they eventually show up as
US $5 off $175.00

Yes, it’s a shell game. Keeps you guessing and hoping that somewhere, there’s the flashlight they told us they wanted to sell.
Now it is back to backordered. Maybe I picked up the last one. I hope I receive both I have ordered. I want this more than the three groupbuy X6 lights.
