95% of the flashlights are black.
That is pretty boring.
I have 3 lights that are not black: The Roche F8 and one SRK Clone and one “NEW-612” in Grey. That’s it.
I would love to have different Colors. Maybe even a white one? Or dark Red, dark green, etc.
Just ordered one… Thought the expedited shipping was $1.99, was 12 dollars … DOH! … oh well … scroode the pooch on that one … that’ll learn me to pay attention to what I’m doing. ahh … Well, it may get here a little quicker now anyway, we’ll see …
PS- the “gbcourui” code still is not working for the gray btw … so I got black … I think they look pretty cool in black …
Ordered the Yezl Y3 with extension tube yesterday.
The Courui still is a nice light - even for 35$ it’s still cheap.
But for my plans, the Yezl is better. The Courui would be a pain in the arse to mod into a MT-G2 light - with the Yezl it’s easy and it has more cooling fins.
I was waiting for the gray, but I bought the O’pen of the GB GB. They have put it to back order.
I’ve frozen other purchases in GB until O’pen is sent. I’m so sorry, but I’m losing confidence.
I sure don’t enjoy the ‘discontinuance’ of OL’s Olight pen gb.
However, being a ‘veteran’ of failed gb’s due to MAP here in BLF, namely the Niwalker Vostro and the Crelant 7G10 with Doingoutdoor, the Nitecore EA41 and JaX Z1, both with Gearbest, I can’t help but feel sorry for the vendors and other organizers here in BLF of past failed gbs due to MAP or some other reason only known to the manufacturer.
Personally I can’t blame the vendors. I believe no vendor would ever want a gb to fail. In my past experiences with failed gbs, it’s always the manufacturer’s side that cuts or shuts off the deal, leaving the vendor with no choice but to cancel the gb, regardless of the status of the gb’s progress.
In this case the guilty is who does not take precautions … If the seller does not takes precautions the buyer should take. For this reason I’ve banned BG.
