M4D M4X deals - Astrolux WP1 and WP2 LEP

[quote=The Burgh]

Can you find out which of the three available tints this one is?

probably CW (but not blueish)

mhanlen sent me one that was “bricked” I was able get it running (again thank you).

Here is what I think, I love the fact that in two clicks I can get the full range from maybe 10-30 lumes up to the rated 450 (which for a head lamp is a lot). No observed PWM no humming.

The ramping feature is so smart. click it once and it comes on in high and while holding it, it will slowly cycle “hi” through the whole “hi” range, lift a finger and that brightness is memorized. Click a second time and you are in “low” (same deal) Bingo you have two prefered levels memorized. double click, strobe, double click again and SOS. Click once more and back to “normal”

It is light weight, the band is a bit snug for “Einstein heads”, think of it as “secure :wink: ” Maybe when the elsatic streches a bit it will be just right.

FYI for thoes of us who like to mod. The head is pressfit over the (glass,reflector,emitter and pill) in such a way that I have not figured out how to get into it :frowning: . The head unscrews easily and access to both sides the board and teeny tiny wires is right there, the switch wires are tucked up in a hard to access recess (havent figured out how to get the switch out). So on a moding scale this on is a mechanical challange.

The battery comparment is long, if you pull the plain spring out it measures 75.5mm so if one wanted I am sure two 18350 cells would fit with rooom to spare, add a small spring and bobs your uncle. (just in case you were thinking about a 6V mod :slight_smile: ).

I belive it is an electronic switch (every time you repace the battery expect the light to come on and to need to reset your light levels)

Now if only we could get to the emitter.

I get that you were being sensitive to some criticism (deserved or not) about links.

But consider that if you don’t post (your) link in (your) thread it means that we and you need to go through additional separate PM’s to get your link.

If you are going to post the price with the code put your link up and we will be done with it.

I thought you were going to post two links and we would pick one (I say just post your link) and if we want to use the code directly, then folks will take care of that them selves.

So a long version of “thanks you”, yes please send me a link to the ch10 or better yet just post it in this thread.

@ trume_3454

FDDNCR works for me - tested right now…

@Ronin42:
i wanted to do that with the update yesterday - but somehow i lost the complete post twice… :expressionless:

i will try to fix that asap
(but since last week i have a lot of work in a hospital (~12 hours a day) and a baby growing teeth - just a little time for the forum :frowning:

.

€dit did a quick redo on Post 1…

Thank you, M4D M4X. FDDNCR works now.
This code saves 9% vs. the 8% BLF code saving but only if buying 1 pair. With each additional pair you buy in the same transaction, the value of the FDDNCR code decreases. If you buy 3 pairs only, BLF code already saves more than FDDNCR code.

2PCS NCR18650B 3400mAh 3.7V Gold Plating Li-ion Battery With Seiko Protecton Board

I remember seeing best prices for protected NCR18650B in the $15 - $16 range for a pair within the last year. Perhaps, it was a group buy? You wouldn’t be able to find something comparable, perhaps a group buy, would you? Bangood would sell 100 of these batteries with your 9% coupon for $16.63 already. Perhaps, BLF members could purchase several hundred with 10-12% code which should bring the price well under $16.

As the Japanese yen has declined against the US dollar and most other world currencies due to Abenomics in 2014, the purchasing power of US dollar has increased which makes it cheaper for Bangood and other vendors to buy Japanese products. Therefore, such stores could offer better discounts on Japanese-made (not Chinese-made) goods now. You could use the strength of US dollar against the Japanese yen argument to negotiate with vendors regarding discounts for made-in-Japan products

I would love to see BLF members benefit from the growing purchasing power of US dollar and not only stores who purchase Japanese goods and resell them in US dollars.

Thank you for your efforts.

hey guys!

are the updates okay for you?
do you get them in your subscriptions?
can you live with the way i post the Links?

i would like to get some feedback from you
also from thme who did not use the aff-link …

All Good Martin.

Marc.

Updates are good.
I get them via subscription.
Posting codes and links only in post #1 works great and is much more convenient for users than posting them in the next-numbered post at the end of the thread.

Thank you.

M4D M4X:

Could you please arrange with BG to include button top equivalent NCR18650B batteries into the code ‘FDDNCR’? If you can get it done, please update post #1 with the additional URL.

NCR18650B not covered by code ($19.50 original price). “Coupon is only allowed to use in special product” error when using ‘FDDNCR’:

NCR18650B covered by code ($19.56 original price):

Thank you very much.

i forwarded your wish! :wink:

Thank you. Let’s see what BG would do.

hello mr m4x. I bet you can’t get a coupon for this! Q5 300LM Mini Zoomable LED Taschenlampe Schwarz (1 * AA / 1 * 14500) Sale - Banggood Deutschland sold out-arrival notice-arrival notice
(in spain we finish these kind of phrases with “no hay huevos!”, something like “you have no guts to do it”. It works ALWAYS)

I am confused, why would you ask him to “work” on reducing the price of a $3.59 light.

  1. these are on sale everywhere,
  2. unless you are buying 1,000 units what does it matter?

Come on and give Martin a break.

Hi M4D M4X, do you have a code for the Skilhunt DS20?

Thank you for all your work!

not now…
I will ask, but it takes some time cause of the new year…

Thanks M4D M4X, I know they are off for the holidays and will take a week or two before they get back from vacation.

Hi M4D, any chance you could get a nice discount for this cells:

Cheers

requested…

Thanks :beer:
I see BG started working, there are new stuff added today :slight_smile:

I’m planning to buy some HE2 cells

I’ve found some on aliexp they cost me 4.9$ each/shipped but they are flat top and i should add a magnet for it

Is it possible to have some discount on these (they are button top, natively) so they would be more secure to me.

Just in case. If not possible thanks anyway. :slight_smile: :slight_smile:
Cheers

Thanks for the deals. Subscribed
