Sold out! - GBGB: BLF-348 - Classy and Small 1xAAA Stainless Steel light, with Nichia NVSW219B-V1 R9050

Mine finally came today after work! But I think I got a yellow one like you did. Is one of them engraved and the other isn’t?

Both are engraved and should be BLF editions not the regular singfire one, that’s what bothers me the most.

the that’s very kind of you, and thanks for all your efforts on the GB. But it’s not your fault that either the factory or gearbest is trying to scam people, so it would not be fair to accept your light now.
Drrr I am upset, these would have been Christmas gifts.

i have received mine 3 as well. i really like the tint! not sure if I’ll put a nimh or 10440 in them yet.

I don't think so. It's probably a honest mistake, like simply taking a wrong emitter when assembling the light or picking a wrong light when sending them to be engraved.

If they would like to scam us, they would have swapped wrong emitters to everyone.

My offer is still valid: If Gearbest can't make it right, I will. :)

I really hope these emitters make there way to other, bigger EDC lights (e.g 18650). I love the tint and the higher CRI without any hint of magenta etc. I like them so much that I’ve been trying to find a modder to make another light for me with these emitters, but so far no luck…

FWIW—the original batch of 348’s in GB were terrific!
The CW is great for me—and the
“NW” was very vanilla milkshake/orange Julius tinted IF you like warmer tints.

Both http://intl-outdoor.com and http://www.mtnelectronics.com carries the emitters. They are also both known to help customers out with special requests.

OT

@RollerBoySE: thanx for the links. I have checked out them before. I’m not much of a modder, so I need the complete package, and S3 at Mtn is out of stock currently.

Send them both emails about your wishes, I’m sure something can be worked out with what’s in stock.

cool thanx

I’m really quite excited to get this flashlight, whenever it gets here, but I hope I get the proper version.

I have not received no engraved one ordered Oct 28th.
I have ordered engraved version Dec 3th.
At first order there were about 30$ items, but they send this flashlight separately via China Post Unregistered, others SE post unregistered.
Already received SE post package. If I will not receive in one week more, I will open dispute in case it gets lost.

Is it even worth opening a dispute with these guys?

Hi alphazeta, I’m really sorry for this issue, could you please PM me your order number and the picture about the lights ( logo, emitter, sku that on the lights or it’s package ), we need to gain the evidence to communicate with the supplier about this, thanks for you kindly help

PM sent with details, please do everything to correct the mistake ASAP!

I LIKE THIS.

I got one of the yellow ones as well, Do you want my info as well?

Hi. Thanks for the reply.

However I already wrote back on my ticket to have it closed. I was having a hard time get a good comparison pic on how the tint is drastically different to another light I have a Nichia 219B 5000k in & while the tint appears to be off it not as if it’s a puke green or something. Thus for $6~$7 it seems to be too much trouble to get a decent beamshot. As is it’s a decent enough of a light where I’ll just close the ticket.

Afterall perhaps it really is a Nichia 219B 5000k but the tint just looks different b/c it’s in this lens & this reflector (at least I’ve always felt these variables affect an LED’s tint.)

AZ

You can bet if I receive my next one and it ain't the nichia, I would for sure get another one delivered. That's the ONLY reason I purchsed the BLF 348. First one received was perfect...waiting on the second.

A picture side by side of two differing tints is all it would take. :|

Yellow is not acceptable.. :Sp
