I had ordered mine around the same time as you, it makes no sense how random it seems what you get is sometimes.

I had ordered mine on Nov 2 from CNQG, shipped on the 8th. Black, U2 version.

I would Prefer no logo, so long as it works…

I was up early drinking some coffee and a little birdy told me “ swap your SRK driver with the Apex driver “…So i did. Thats one smart bird!!

There’s one thing I need to be sure so I can order the driver. The apex is an 5 LEDs light while the king is 3 LEDs, how does an apex driver actually work on a SRK? How does the driver distribute the current to each LED equally? Any safety issue here? Sorry I’m too new to these and just don’t get the concept..

Ordered on 11/15/12 and it arrived today. It came well packaged in a white box with a spare O-ring and a lanyard. It looks to be in perfect condition and has the Sky Ray logo. It makes me wish I had batteries for it.

Ordered my black SRK December 20, got 2 weeks later. Had box, lanyard, o-rings, and the old buck driver(the good one). Has all the SRK markings, the quality of the machining on this light is as good as any light I own, including the big name brand lights that are know for their machine work. Ric, if you are reading, I will most likely order the Shocker after a review but it I would have gotten one of the unmarked lights or one with the bad driver I can assure you the Shocker order would be a no go.

ho to everyone got today my black King from CHQG, and found how to fix easily turn on/off on this monster, pictures attached below;

need two o-rings, with a little bit bigger size than places to put, for better fixing, and small part of thin resin/gum for make it waterproof – put it before second/bigger o-ring(condom is our friend)). after all, now need a significant effort(o-rings are not soft) to turn on/off flashlight, waterproof also works fine

and, sorry for my english!)))

thats an important issue to adress, mayb ric will make a version 2 with all the improvements ?

Is the new batch shipping yet? Ordered mine almost a week ago, no update.

Well, just ordered one at Fancyflashlights

mine came today from fancy flashlight, strong cardbox, foam insert,wrapped in bubble wrap and lge jiffy bag.Cant grumble the quality is spot on,payed on the 30.01.13.Also came with lanyard and spare o ring.Haven’t had time to play yet but works fine.When i figure out how i will upload pics.FAST SHIPPING

Anybody notice they got a new batch of black skyray kings in that have the XML2 U2 1B tint available.

I just received 3 of the KINGs in Black from the fresh order that just came into cnqg recently, I’m happy with them.

I ordered one in black colour xm-l u2.
edit.
First impressions are that the flashlight has not 2500 lumens.After ceiling bounce method SRK have 220 lux and Fenix tk41(800lumens rated) have 92 lux.This means that SRK have 1913 lumens.I don’t know if this methode is accurate,the lux @1m for Fenix tk41-50400 and for SRK-26400.Maybe the Fancyflashlight model(xm-l 2t) is not as bright as CNQ model(xm-l u2).For 59$ it’s a very strong flashlight,i am happy with this purchase!

So there will be no more Skyray King U2 sold? I really liked it but found out too late by the looks. More stock coming or is that it?

soooo, no more U2, verified by Ric. I ordered 1xBlack SRK XML-t6 with 4x panasonic 3400mah and holster. Will post when it arrives, if anyone is interested… It looks like this forum has died down a lot in the last 6 months.
