Definitely interested in a Hobi. With or without extensions, it depends on the price.
This would be my first group buy, so is there any info how these group buys work? Is it a problem that I live in the Netherlands?
Seeing that a fellow dutchman has replayed as well, I don’t think that the last would be a problem :P.
Can we get a battery included? I don’t have any 10180 cells, so it would be great if we could get one along with this light. The listing you linked says the battery is NOT included, but they also don’t have it for sale separately on the site, and a 10180 IS included with the Fairy.
Well, thanks for showing that they do have a listing for it, even though it is out of stock ATM. I couldn’t even find a listing when I did a quick search for keywords “10180 battery” before.
Edit: Banggood has some Veleno Designs 10180 cells in stock for $2.99 each. The DQG cells at the Gearbest link are/were $1.82 each. However, the DQG cells are 70mAH, while the Veleno Design cells are 90mAH.
Do the extensions fit the Fairy as well as the Hobi? I would be in for this as well, and since I have the DQG Fairy, if the extensions fit that as well, an extra set of the extensions would be great. I would figure they would, as the charger fits all three, but do not know absolutely, which is why I am asking….
I picked up the Fairy recently and it is pretty sweet. Only thing I don’t like about it is lack of knurling of any sort to help with twisting to turn on/off. Looks like the Hobi might be a bit better, but still somewhat slippery.
Ok spoke with GB and they will make a pick and choose combo so those that need a charger can get one and those who don’t can skip it. The light is stainless steel not titanium, I will ask if that’s possible to get; the main group buy will be on the stainless steel version. I can also ask for them to include a deal on the Fairy for those who prefer the brass model or the Spy. I have the Fairy and it’s a great light, the brass is really nice.
I need to ask which extensions people want. There are two options
