oh my… great timing Martin! I literally cackled at my desk at work.
This G700 is very popular too, and they appear to have a healthy shill base. On facebook there are a lot of “reviews” in the comments on their ads from people that appear to be in the US military, claiming that these are the same flashlights that are issued to them.
So, since I have a Youtube channel, I obsessively look at the analytics. I have found this G series of flashlights as a common search term. In fact it’s my top search term. These terms you are seeing on the far left are, are the top search terms that bring people to my channel. I have also noticed that Yahoo runs targeted ads too for these crap lights. Here’s a screenshot of my analytics showing this.
Maybe we need someone to buy one of these cheap clones and do a comparison video vs a Convoy or something under the title of “G700 review”. That way correct information shows up on YouTube, just like this thread (hopefully) will on Google.
No no no, just buy the $5 version, and use G700 in your title somehow
I mean yes…. $50…. Just PayPal it to me and I’ll drop ship the light to you.
If you do it tonight I’ll even give you a 50% discount. Only $25 to have the light shipped to you!
I ran across this one the other day and had to laugh when I read it, here’s some entertaining highlights from the description:
“The XT8-L Flash ranks among the toughest tactical lights ever produced in the history of the tactical lighting industry”
“the XT8-L Flash has quickly become a preferred tool among its Military and Law-Enforcement Patrons”
“The XT8-L Flash can withstand the abuses expected on the battlefield, while still carrying the finesse and beauty fit to be carried by top-rank officers”
I like this idea. Someone should do this. Countless are being ripped off and they need to know what they are getting and what’s the real price of those products. I’m willing to give a couple of dollars for this g700 review to happen.
