DX; deals and new products

anyone interested in a lucky bag ;)

pay $20 and get whatever they are willing to throw in the bag... but worth more than $58

This is a commong thing that happens in Japan. I really don`t like it. Especially not at clothes shops... you buy a bag of which you have no idea of whats inside, but you might get lucky.

they even had it at the Apple store in Tokyo, you pay big money, and only 1 out of the 1000 bags had a Macbook pro.

anyway... here`s the link: http://deals.dx.com/team.php?id=11287

I tried to create an account at DX just now and can’t get it done! It keeps telling me the validation code is wrong! Anybody else experience this? Anybody know how to fix it?

Probably chinese new year problems which stopped you

I needed a special character like ‘@’ when I created a new password. Try to include a special character?

Yeah, I had at least one of each: capital letter, lowercase letter, number, special character, and I had a total of 9 characters. :wink: I think the captcha wasn’t working correctly. I just tried it now and it worked with all the same info I used before, including the password. It must have been a system glitch. J)

I have not ordered or bought any new lights in nearly 3 months… maybe i should… dunno. That Komaes one looks interesting though.

Only 120 lm. Give you excuse not to buy?

The system does not seem to take into many possible input cases. For example, I was prompted for Old password when creating, not changing, New password. Anyway glad that you got it working.

Thx for the info!

i am temped.

but a little bit searching and i found here at BLF:

so, i think i can and will resist :slight_smile:

Hey.. how about this light? seems very interesting for the price..$33.52

Singfire SF-370

and it also has a nice killer spike ;)

downside is, they are XPG R5 (1st gen) and output at 600lumens. (at least they are conservative with these numbers... not showing 3000 lumens or something)

and this one looks funny

It looks like it lights up the ring around the reflector

as well as the normal led.

Wow… Ultrafire is like Kia now, their designs is getting ahead of … kudos for them :beer:
That Singfire SF-370 doesn’t look too bad, especially if you can mod it with XP-L and RMM FET driver :wink:

i agree, i was just looking at that this morning.

hmm… a perfect match?

The Sipik SK68 was my first LED flashlight. The only other Sipik that has caught my eye is the Sipik LK07.

SIPIK LK07 500lm 5-Mode White Flashlight w/ Cree XM-L T6 - Grey (1 x 18650) $27.18

Better pictures on Sipiks website.

Some days ago, this little 14500 light was under “New Arrvials” @dx:
ZHISHUNJIA 1304-T6 XM-L LED 700lm 3-Mode Cool White Light Flashlight w/ Keychain - Grey (1 x 14500)
http://www.dx.com/p/zhishunjia-1304-t6-xm-l-led-700lm-3-mode-cool-white-light-flashlight-w-keychain-grey-1-x-14500-384164#.VUNxi1O-aPU
It would fit nicely in the thread “flashlights below $10” - but it is not eBay who sells it :wink:
Some errors in the description, there is a XM-L2 mentioned but it’s clearly only XM-L.
By the looks it could be a decent light w/o further modifications (modding) - 2,5A current in high mode - and there are even 5 colours to choose!
(Although I would perhaps go with the gray one because there is the least damage to see if the anodising/paint is weak…)
What’s your opinion? Is it worth a try? Does someone have this one already?
One negative thing could be that the switch protrudes over the tailcap…

Antenne, I really don`t know... just saying I don`t like the looks of it so much ;)

so yeah.. no valid reason!

Also, there is this bike light, which is really nice..just a simple 18650 light $15

oh, and the additional code at the end is a code that DX added to see where the traffic is coming from.. so no affiliate links or whatsoever.

Some SRK clones with XPL, NOT XPL, but fake cree

for $27 (probably without led shelf)

Don't buy!!!

This looks interesting.

US $66.44

^ Received the above today. Does not have XP-L's. Looks like the same type of generic 3535 or something that djozz and others have recently received.
