I decided to order a few of these as gifts.
I have two nephews ages 4 and 6. Is this light ok for that age?
I’d be gifting it with Energizer Lithium L92 AAA’s and from reading here it just gets a little warm during use with regular primaries.
I’ll also give them tips on not to leave the light running unattended and not point it at anyone’s face.
To me it seems like a decent light for them but any advice from you guys is appreciated!
I see no real dangers with gifting this light using primary cells save for the usual brightness tempting misuse. I’m liking it so much I may fast-ship a few more here for additional Christmas presents.
Thanks SawMaster, I think the single mode will be perfect for them.
I’m curious to the runtime though (haven’t read the whole thread), don’t want them burning through lithium AAAs.
I’ll mention saving battery life and not leaving it on too long… Except for the first day of course, we’re gonna have to ‘play flashlights’ together.
After the said everyone can order, I ordered some
Amazing lights!
Amazing tint!
Arrived quickly, thanks a lot the and gearbest!
These nichias are great and should be in all lights. :heart_eyes:
With one of cool whites.
That might have something to do with the fact that they are almost running out of stock..
If you (anyone) haven't ordered yet, now is the very last chance to do so. Currently there are only 27 plain and 63 BLF ones in stock. :)
I asked GB/factory about the possibility of producing more of these: The factory answered that a new batch would require 800pcs MOQ (less than that, with this low price, would not be profitable for them).
What do you think? Do we want to buy another 1000pcs?
I managed to order one today for $7.13. Right after I clicked add to cart it explicitly went out of stock (the button actually changed) even before paying. Checkout this time went fine, so I’m hoping I’ll get it.
I’d probably order more, but not right now. Need to see it in my hand first. I’m hoping for a new batch in several months.
I went in for another dozen when the buy opened up.
Arrived today and 12 of 12 worked where one has blems on the switch-cap and one of the clips was not quite right.
Great office stocking stuffers. …and one for me to dissect J)
The original SingFire 348 may be just what you are looking for. It outputs around 40 lumens (rather than 50) running on NiMH. Here is the GearBest sales page (non-aff).
