$5.12 for shipping to the US. From the pics it looks well worth $15 though.
These are available from banggood for the same price. I have one inbound. Seems a little on the cheesy side but with built in charging port, audible alarm, attack head, side switch and side cutter there’s a lot there for $15.
Nice theme for a thread because of the obscureness of ebay. I suggest as a 'rule' in this thread that at least with every deal a picture is shown of what the deal is about.
very nice prices for budget conscious minded BLF flasholics 
that double O rings light reminded me of Keenwin light :~

Use the code “15SD32” for discount.
Just tried thw code and it currently works.
I own two Supfire F3 L2s and thinking of ordering a few more.
not exactly ebay but still a good deal ;)
Thanks HBomb.
Didn’t realize this concept was already a few years old.
Wasn’t sure what to call this thing.
So far I’ve seen the following names similar to this design:
- Sipik SK51 (thanks HBomb)
- Zoomable Flashlight and Pop Up Lantern
- LED Dual Light
- LED Flashlight + Lantern 2 in 1
- Flashlight which extends to become a lantern
- Pop up LED lantern / flashlight combo
- Flashlight Lantern Combo
- Led Camping Lantern Flashlight Torch Lamp (
- Lantern Stretch Light
After some looking around, here are some I think fall into this particular combo catagory:
The Romisen RC-N3 is a versatile light that can use CR123A, 16340, and 2AA with the included extension tube. With a cool white Cree XR-E, it’s a thrower in a small form factor. Without the extension tube, it’s a compact stubby. With the extension tube it becomes a 2AA stick.
Tail current is 0.95A with a cheap 16340 and 1.9A with 2 AA alkaline cells.
Here are some features (plus and minus):
- OP aluminum screw-in reflector
- single mode
- forward clickie
- solid aluminum screw-in pill
- nice anodization
- anodized tail cap for lock-out or conversion to twisty
- thick walls
- thick glass lens
- o-rings
- nice wire belt clip
- does not tail stand
The main tube is sized for CR123A so there is some rattling when used with 2AA extension tube. I solved this by cutting 1/4” copper tubing to act as a sizing adapter.
I broke the tail switch after unscrewing it. Thanks to the anodized tailcap, I was able to convert the light to a twisty by adding a spring.
It’s a bargain for $6.83 shipped from the US. By 5 or more and get 5% off. I ordered two more before you take them all.
Thanks for the info and alert dthoang. Is the tube like 3 different size sections? You mention main and extension, but it looks like in the pictures it may be 3 section.
ordered one to make use of all the extra AA Eneloops I have laying around from buying the Costco packs and all the AAAs are in remotes.
There are actually five sections. The image below shows four, but the head can be separated into two pieces to get at the reflector. This is really a well made light.
I like these Romisen RC-N3 and have modded a bunch of them. Curious the ebay seller ships from the same NJ town as Tmart, who also sells the RC-N3 for a bit more on their site…
I use them for general purpose lights. They take a 16mm MCPCB for the led, the reflector hole is a fit for XM-L size and it makes a nice smooth and focused beam. One in the tool box, hall closet, kitchen….
The XR-E in these is dated and the driver is not so efficient either.
You can get much more light with less power by upgrading.
I have used DX SKU 25505 and BB Nexgen drivers in them. Select sense resistor according to desired current. I run 100-250 lumen range for general use. (runtime is important here) The driver size is a bit non-standard. The pill is aluminum with a brass ring around the driver to solder. Remove the ring and you can fit a 17mm driver, but then how to connect to aluminum pill… A bit of work to fit a new driver.
For the price it is a nice 2AA/CR123A host even tossing the XR-E & driver.
I believe Yallstore = Tmart.
