Sure looks like it. Very shady. They respond with “This case is solved” How do we know?? Sounds like just lies.
They told 1 person that he received the package before he even ordered it… Wow they must of been Pre-shipping his Pre-order.
I think we need to hack into their WordPress site and show the world who they really are and what they’re selling… Just a thought.
That has to be them. Pretty scary stuff considering one guy got charged 3 times and it sounds like he only ordered one light.
The fact that you can’t use PayPal is pretty disconcerting as well. That would really suck if we all pooled out money together to buy the light, and then someone got stuck with 3 different charges on their credit card. As much as I’d love to take these guys down a notch, it might be better to find someone with the light, and borrow it for a review.
I think we need to send it to mhanlen for a tongue and cheek review.
I will throw in $5.00.
He does have a catalog of beamshots to compare with….
If you want to spread the word, get a pic like the one above plastered over social media.
A couple of rounds on Facebook will capture many people’s attention
I received one of these for Xmas. I’d seen this in banner ads all the time while using my parents’ PC. It came with a dumb charger and 2 “protected” “4.2Ah” cells, which are undoubtedly old laptop pulls. I also looked at the emitter. It’s a LatticeBright clone of the original XM-L (surprise).
The box. Cheap thermoplastic (likely recyclable LDPE).
The contents. Light still in the crinkly wrapping.
I highly doubt the cells have any of the claimed protection circuitry. IlluminationSupply Kinoko IMR cells are among the shortest cells I’ve seen.
The mere safety of this kludge of a package is highly questionable.
Bless my parents. They’d always want me to do what I wish with a gift.
Such a review would be great thing to see, especially if mhanlen did it. He’s funny and from my understanding his YouTube channel has considerable reach.
I’d be more than happy to ship this to the designated reviewer at my expense if I were to get $56 and a comparison review in exchange. I would then purchase an Xtar MC1 charger, two Convoy S2+, and two protected Samsung cells for exactly $55.99 at Mountain Electronics to gift to my parents.
Yes and in the review your choosen package could (and should) be compared to the G700
And now that a just cause with no extra money to the scammers involved is found I am definitely in for $5,-!
I recon Slim Pickens also chips in and we are at 25
Maybe ship the cells to HKJ, and the G700 to someone who has an integrated sphere and is willing to make a comprehensive review?
I just bought almost exactly the same package deal for a relative. Mc2, 3 protected Samsung cells, and 2 S2+.
There's $25 not listed yet, with your $5 it's up to $45.
Nice
Four more for $5 and we’re there
Probable easiest if we give slim pickings a gift card at RMM?
Look like they are labeled “Klonefire” 
That is hilarious.
Truth in advertising, people!
That is an excellent idea!
Count me in for a $5.00 contribution.
MtnE is out of stock of S2+ unfortunately.
Richard told me that there are Convoys on the way.

Anything happening here?
all this does is get a review out in the wild for the spiders to index.might save someone else the disappointment and danger(of the shitfire batteries)
our little contribution to the flashlight world.
btw i “won” one of these for $1.99 shipped.
it is what it appears to be.
a cheap n nasty $1.99 zoomie.with incendiary bomblets on the side.
a bit of tightening here and heatsink compound there and a bit of superlube made it useful.its in my neighbors toolbox now.
this one came in the same case with “anlook” ultrafire copies.same recycled junk.
this light had no markings other than the typical zoomie marks on the head they all have.
edit batteries are anlook.
yes it is.
but they are really “alonefire”
in an emergency you will be alone and on fire due to these crap batteries!
Sorry for not updating my post. I’ve been working nonstop all last week, and weekend, so I haven’t had a chance to do anything with this yet.
I’m going to reach out to a few users this week who have the g700, and see if we can borrow their lights for a week or two for a review. I figured a gift card to Mountain Electronics would be fair compensation for letting us borrow the lights for the review.
That way these scammers don’t get any more money, everyone gets their lights back, and we can still get a review done. How about that?
