Ordered one a week or so ago in the Ali store. Also happened in the past that the store was empty, so try to check in a week or so, it’s such a fine and cheap light it must live on.
Probably just in between production runs.
I'm planning on doing a X6R triple with the copper heat sink I got from nitro. I as well love this light, recommended it. I'm so-so confident in the built-in charging circuit though from others reported problems, but if it fails, it's pretty isolated from the driver, so not a big loss.
I’m making a triple 219C with a twist with my X6R
They are on holiday from 22 Jan - 20 Feb. There will be no shipment during this period. Probably that was why most vendors temporary halt their sales for Eagle Eye.
Just popped up at Fasttech

it's one-mode though and not using XP-L HI. Otherwise, I'd be all friggin' over it!
Thanks everyone, yeah they’ll be back, just got nervous because I gifted my X6R before I got one for myself!
Joe, I’d say the 1 mode spec is a typo - (the norm for fasttech) Also the X6R never came with XPL-HI
I don’t remember seeing any X6R with an XP-L HI.
I didn’t notice the modes though. I think it might be a typo, as it also says the max output is 350ma.
edit: I guess I just sound like a mockingbird…
Highly interested in seeing that, please post about it when you do!
I don't think FT wants to sell these - 1 mode and 350 lumens max. We will never see GearBest under spec a flashlight .
There back on aliexpress
Damn, Banggood need to offer this light again : (
You can buy it from AliExpress :
I just don’t need another XM-L2 light. A newer emitter would revive this light easily.
XM-L2 may seem “old news” but it’s still the best performing emitter in its class, unless you want an HI for throw or the smaller XP-G3.
XP-G3 sounds best!
Well if you want less lumens…
I changed one to a XP-L HI gave it a real nice beam profile. I don’t have it any more though, I lend it to my father and never got it back.
I have been trying for a long time to give him a flashlight but he always returned them. On this he likes the beam profile, tint, dual switches and build in charger.The charger works very good but I put in a protected NCR18650B just to be safe.
