Very nice. Is there any reason why these are only V2?
Thanks for this answer. Also do you know who sells this “new” LD-25 driver by itself?

I also tried to track it for you using this link, but it shows “not found”:
“the last 2 letters are standard ISO-3166 pointing to the origin of sender”
The weird thing is your suffix is PY which shows the origin to be Paraguay
-
I think the first two letters indicate the carrier, in your case HK Post?
I tried to track it for you here: http://www.hongkongpost.hk/en/mail_tracking/index.html but no luck either.
40 days is not good at all. 
I would just send a message in aliexpress and ask him to track it, but yes you may be running out of time to open the dispute.
Hi
I have got SANYO 18650 2600mAh Rechargeable Battery with Protection Board
would these be ok to use with this torch or should i buy LG DB 18650 MH1 Li-Ion 3200mAh 3.7v PROTECTED BATTERIES. Nitecore i4 charger
many thank from the UK
If it’s not too much too ask, could you post a quick beamshot of your XP-L X5? I’m really curious as to how an XP-L HI looks like in that reflector.
Out of those two the LG MH1 3200 would be best, the Sanyo will work but the discharge rate appears to be quite low (Continuous Discharge Current: 2.6A) as opposed to 10A continuous for the LG. This flashlight can pull slightly over 3.5A. So you probably wouldn’t get the full brightness potential with the Sanyo.
Actually regular XPL and the side switch is steel, at first glance looks like plastic though. Plus I suck at beamshot pics lol work in progress
Does this seller offer a BLF Discount?. Also, I’ve never purchased from Ali before. Is there no PayPal ? If product doesn’t show up, any protection? Thanks
No further discount that I’m aware of. Prices are good tho.
-
No PayPal, pretty sure someone confirmed before? (You could always just message them on the site and ask to be sure)
I’ve been using their payment system for years, I’ve never had any problem with it.
-
Yes there is protection. You can open a dispute and get a refund within a time period. Read here: http://activities.aliexpress.com/adcms/www-aliexpress-com/buyerprotection/index.php?spm=2114.11010108.1000001.1.BC2Z4x
Also, I would recommend selecting ePacket shipping method. It’s much faster, less worry and better tracking. Message them and ask if they can include it.
Just an update over what I said: the tailcap of this X6 IS interchangeable with the BLF X6’s tailcap. Every part legos just fine. The threads are different between the two model lights, but they are able to be mixed and matched.
Very Helpful, Thank you. As a side note, I have one X6 from Gearbest and it is very nice. Apparently it has a diff reflector, than the one from the OP. I want to get one from the OP Seller. I’ll report back with a comparison. Thanks again.
Very nice job, gusta, and Welcome to BLF!
You were able to do what nobody else could!
-Chuck
Thank you for a warm welcome I was glad to help.
Thank you gusta, at least I know that package was sent 45 days ago. I will wait couple more weeks since seller have prolonged buyer protection to 100 days !
Ha ha 100 days enough to go to the moon and back 
Not sure whats going on but all of the X6 / X6r flashlights on EE ali store are showing “No longer available”
There is currently only one item in the store, the X5
However the seller just replied last night to a question about the X6 XPL HI, I’m going to reply and inquire about the store issue.
Patiently waiting a response on the store too. I was planning on ordering from them.
Hasn’t this happened before? I think they run out of stock and pull the link until they get more…at least I think that is what’s going on.
Hi - thanks, but why isn't the X5 listed and described with a side switch on your site? And is it 6 modes or 7? It says 7 but listed 6 modes.
have this light for a while.
can say really please than expected.
small form factor, throw & brightness on par with my XM-L based light driven roughly on 3.5-3.8A with 50 & 60 mm reflector.
I keen to see XP-L HI on large reflector or multiled.
the only con is the clip, unusable to me. remove it for better hand grip.
