Red S2+ flashlight ,for girls,for your lover

Indeed. Persistence is key here. Iā€™m sure multiple people asking for the same thing doesnā€™t hurt. When I responded to him about the blue S2+ I also mentioned that lots of people were asking him to bring back the L2. Weā€™ll see. It did finally work with the S2+. :beer:

So please tell me, if itā€™s not too OTā€¦

Iā€™m pretty new to Convoy (only having the Real Red S2+ and the L4)ā€¦ What is it about the L2 that people like so much?

I mean - I really donā€™t knowā€¦

TIA!

I think in order to get Simon to do a run of L2s youā€™re going to need to do an GB interest thread. There has been much more interest expressed for a blue S2+. Not so much in the L2. Get some interest numbers. If the numbers are there, Simon will do it.

Judging by pictures and size, it was quite a thrower? Better than Jacob A6?

Cobalt Black & Blue Super-L2! :heart_eyes: I can dream!, I can dream!, Dream about you!! :wink:

Everyone who's getting these fakes should be posting over in the GearBest thread.

Lets clean up Simon's thread, & look forward to the Blue S2! :beer:

if i paid via PP and they offered refund will it be store credit or refund on PP?
(i ordered 2 days ago and im scared ill get the fake ones.)

Clearly tell them ā€œI need a PayPal refund. Do not give me store credit or coupon.ā€ And Iā€™d put at the end of every message I sent to them regarding this.

Of course they may still try to give you credit. :expressionless: But at least you were quite clear on the matter.

I used my red S2+ to build a red red-orange amber color mixing light, I donā€™t know what Iā€™d put into a blue one.

XP-L V6 3D

I afraid there might be entire line of fake Convoys coming... buyers please beware from now on.

I hope the replacement they send is a real on. Weā€™ll soon find out.

I think part of the problem is that in China there can be several companies making lights for one person\brand name. I believe Simon probably uses the one manufacturer, hence the good quality. But since every copies each other over there it becomes a free for all. We had this with the X6 BLF if I recall correctly, various quality hosts coming out.

These ā€˜fakesā€™ do seem to be particularly bad though.

By the way did anyone know that EagleEye is Rayus light? Again hence the high quality.

Marc.

I agree. Good point about cleaning up this thread. It seems to have spun out. If you buy from Simon you will never get a fake Convoy. Iā€™m excited for the blue S2+ too. I talked to Simon again last night. He shot down the green version because he thinks a green flashlight is ugly. LOL Iā€™ll still try to change his mind though. As far as the L2 goes Iā€™m sad to report that he said he will not bring it back because the design is not good (obviously many disagree) and he didnā€™t make money on that one. Cool as many people think it was you canā€™t expect a business man to knowingly produce something that will not turn a profit.

Yeah thatā€™s the real reason, he didnā€™t make money on it. That = ā€œdesign is not goodā€ for a business man. For most of the reasons we may like it, the ā€œgeneral publicā€ probably doesnā€™t, so it wonā€™t sell in high enough numbers. The only way to bring it back probably would be to try to get a ā€œgroup buyā€ with high enough numbers here for him to be interested. You could ask what those numbers would look like, but because its more expensive, it would be hard to get many hundreds.

I hope there wonā€™t be any fake Convoy L2 in that batch. :wink:

Its maybe as simple asā€¦ If you want the real thing, just buy from Richard or Simon. End of story! :wink:

I think that you got it right.

Thanks,

Exactly! And for crying out loud, whatever you do donā€™t buy from Gearbest!

Red S2+ as a host:

But is it the real deal? Brass retaining rings, but ā€œ1 x Aluminum pillā€ ?? Since the pictures are from the original light itā€™s hard to say if it has the SS switch coverā€¦
