'Rid of my torches, need chargers to go with ($0.02 needed)

Batteries and Chargers Chargers

I saw the review by HKJ on the ML-102 model and was satisfied with its performance. Fasttech and other dealers carries this model and few others.

I'm looking at the ML-101 model at FT. Anyone have these? I like to buy 10 - 20 of these if they meet the guidelines of being inexpensive and safe.

I'm currently getting out of the flashlight hoarding business* and need to get rid of most of my torches. They will need batteries & chargers to go with them.

Please add your $0.02. Any other brand/model I should be looking at?

ML-101 is the same as ML-102, but without USB-out.

Why can't you sell the torches without cells/chargers? I think anything posted for sale here will get response. The BLF crew already have cells/chargers.

Thanks Nekdo12 - that's good to know. I hope they do have the 69.9mm capacity like they advertised.

Wilson - Most of the ones I'm getting rid of (over 20) are P60 type torches (WF-501s & WF-502s, & a few C8s types). They're cheap and the cost of shipping from where I live (Vancouver) will be the same as buying them new from overseas. I don't know why I have so many of them. Everytime they go on sale I buy. It's a sickness. Hence, I'm looking for relative cheap chargers but hoping to find them to be better quality and safer than the $2 chargers on flie bay. Most likely they will be sold below cost just to get rid of them.

My B.I.L. said he'd help me off load these flashlights. Yesterday, he came back and wanted more and all the ones I gave him were sold. What the...

interestingly, the buyers all wanted 1 mode. I said the upgraded drivers costs about $4 a pop. He told me he sold the sets (xml p60 torch, TF3000 18650, Xtar Mp1s, & holster with the upgraded drivers for $75. $60 without upgrade. ?!?!

I don't know how I feel about that. Im thinking the price is kind of steep on one hand and on the other you sell something to make a profit Right? Am I feeling this way because I'm biased being a budget flashaholic?

cost to me would be around $35 at the most. It would have been lower (wholesale) if these were first bought with the intention to sell.

i just can't believe these people would pay that price and think they are getting a bargain.

well … what you don’t know will cost you :wink:
anyway, he’s helping get rid of it, so why do you care…? as long as you’ll get your money back ( or some)
speaking of that, i think i need to follow your footsteps and thin the herd a little bit :bigsmile:

Glad to hear you are successfully selling your lights. I have too many too, but I’m still at a point where I just can’t let them go.

What is a B.I.L?

a fair price is what a buyer will give and a seller will take.

if you are going to do driver swaps, your time is worth something.

just my .02

I get lazy typing on the phone. BIL is brother-in-law.

The crappy thing is now that he wants more to sell, I have to put together a package for him. This means looking at those websites and possibly buying more for myself. It's like giving an ex alcoholic a job to test rum in a Bacardi factory.

Thank you. You had me rolling (with laughter) with that one. Love it. Well, at least flashlights don’t cause brain and liver damage.
