Does that price include shipping/tracking?

i asked because palight is not a “bad” company

suggesting the number is “as well calculated” as other 1000 Lumens firecrackers we can hope for 1000-1200 Lumens
which would let think that its well built in thermal regards.

i hope to see a teardown soon from someone!

What is the status on the BOSS1 sample? I’d love to see it broken down.

Hehe i asked gearbest to stock the fat BOSS in there sales thread yesterday, and they said “Thanks, we are trying to find it, if there is groupbuy for it, wish you could support it” :wink: i assume that means they are the seller/shipper when this thing happen then.
I have no issues with that especially now when we are getting some concrete price info.

And lately they seem to have upped there game on shipping at least for me, what used to take 30-40 days now takes 18-20 days only :slight_smile: for me to Sweden, without tracking or insurance just the free shipping option.

This is lowest quote for BOSS1 for now.

I am 99% sure that shipping and tracking are included but I will verify with vendor again tomorrow.

Sample has already been arranged. I am going to leave the mod part out of the equation first, because there will be buyers who prefer to leave it as stock.

Yep, I don’t care about a “modded review” really, just a breakdown to show internal construction. I’m super excited for this.

Then we shouldn’t expect the $48 figure?

I see your point, but since when do we only buy lights with ANSI ratings?

I think they are quite humble. Other companies would have said 5000lumens.

I received both Niteye and as indicated by centaurus3200 there is a physical polarity protection on the R26 ( not the R25, simple spring ). The good news is that it is easily removable, just be careful with the driver board under it. Check your light when you’ll receive it, at first even my protected Pana were not working.

Update: new batch of model C (R16) has arrived in vendor's warehouse on Sat.

Fingers crossed. :bigsmile:

I’m assuming your protected battery was a flat top and that’s why it didn’t work?

Robby

Flat top will not work due to it physical polarity protection on A (R28) & D (R26).

Whereas B(R25) has a protruding spring design instead.

I hope so, I paid on Nov. 7 :bigsmile:

Your patience will pay off.


First NITEYE MS-R28 review here.

Thanks Freeme, ordered A…Now thinking that it needs some friends… :~

You could decide after your A arrives. C or E could be a good choice if you wish to have a matching set.

No, the protected pana is button top, but the polarity protection doesn’t seem well designed.
I received the clip and with it in place you really have to tighten to make contact, I think I will run the light without this plastic pill.

Interested in BOSS1.
