DX is the only site that has even half way decent search, useful pictures and descriptions. If it weren't for the folks on this forum, I would not take the chance of purchasing at KD. Web sites, how hard can they be?
I NEVER would have purchased from a place like KD if not for the testimonies and feedback from this site. It's amazing how comfortable you get once you get sucked into the world of flashlights :P
Hope you didn't take them all! I would love one at that price but I have a feeler out. You know, if it's too good to be true...... WHY would they just discount them by $8 when some said the other prices were going UP? I hope it's legit.
U serious? Opera is the only one I use. Have that in tabletop, laptop and every cell phone in the family. Wouldn't take anything else.
To subject; I just had to order that C8 for the crazy price. Oldbob and some others have waved the C8 flag for some time now and as I don't have any C8 format light, I figured it's time to jump to that bandwagon. And if I get a lemon, the emitter by itself is worth of a tenner or so, so no big loss.
+1 on Opera. It's the one I regularly use. I sometimes use Firefox for a couple of sites I found greasemonkey and scripts indispensable. Other than that Opera exclusively. To each his own I guess.
In the main it is because I use a very large number of FF extensions, several that I find totally indispensable. I don't even upg to the next FF each time until most of the extensions have also been upg'd to work with it. So whenever I use Opera I find it aggravating that I effectively have to do so very much by longer routes.
I guess if I were new to browsers and did not use such a range of extensions I might feel differently.
The search engine works with google chrome but you have to hit the "enter" key after typing the text instead of using the "go" button that doesn't work.
Chrome, Opera, IE etc., are of no interest to me. I use so many FF extensions that I'm not up for changing. I find it v.annoying that to use KD's new site I now have to use a portable version of Opera.
I am not pleased and you can bet that with FF's huge user base I am far from alone. Unless KD sort it they will lose a hell of a lot of business.
+1. I've been a FF user since back when it was called Phoenix and it's the perfect browser for me. If it's a really important website, I may pull up a copy of IE in a sandbox (there's even a FF extension for that :D) but I am not installing another browser for any website.
This is sort of like opening a distillery in Utah. Sure, you can do it but it's probably not a smart move. Beta testing FTW. ;)
