I bought some parts from mtn electronics to do my first build and want to do more but with the$22 shipping and £20 tax it ended up ridiculously expensive! Is there anywhere else I can get that stuff in the UK/Europe without breaking the bank? Eg; S2+ triple optics leds drivers etc.? TIA.
All Asian shops ship to EU countries and, if ordered separately, they won’t be taxed and shipping is mostly free.
Kaidomain, LEDDNA, Fasttech, etc
For electronics parts you might try here http://uk.farnell.com/ They got some optics too, but don’t expect to much.
Ouch, instead of mtn electronics, use https://intl-outdoor.com instead for UK purchases.
https://eu.nkon.nl sell batteries and a bunch of related stuff (good range of heat shrink materials). I ordered on Sunday and just got a shipping notification today so not fastest to dispatch the order but actual delivery should only take a few days unlike my battery order from China which is coming by train.
I think BLF member Lexel is based in Germany. He sells lots of custom drivers
Thanks all.
