Edit : Not recommended now.. 20% disc Trustfire Flames are good, measured 2266mAh & new batch 2498mAh

I got a full refund, no questions asked, and the dispute was closed, but not from my hand. I thought that I was the only one to close my dispute.

The money was already send back to my bank account so I guess that PayPal themselves have closed the dispute which is all right.

Now I could re-order but I don't dare, I also think that the 20% off is'nt valid anymore.

I have received a $15, $20, $30 and $50 giftcard from them through DD's CS before. (Yes they mess up quite a few of my orders) I think they just don't understand too well most of them time.

I decided to give dd one chance to make it right. "otta" promised in online chat the items I have originally ordered to be immediately sent. If the cells are unprotected or they do not arrive before the date that's my last change to open a PayPal case a dispute will we opened that's for sure. And after receiving the correct items I'll just close the PP case.

I ordered 6 pairs of PROTECTED ones, and I have included this paypal note: "Please, be sure to send me PROTECTED batteries as the item's title says".

I really hope they send protected!, I have an upcoming project and I can't use unprotected batteries at all.

The first batch I've received from DD were ok; original, protected flame Trustfire. Yesterday, surprise! Unprotected, and probably fake (looks the same as fake eBay cells we were mad some time ago).

Unprotected on the left, good one on the right.

When did you order the protected flames and when did it shipped?

When did you order the protected flames and when did it ship?

I've ordered protected cells on 10/09/2011, and second batch was ordered on 10/20/2011, arrived yesterday.

Thanks Hrvoje.

my order finally came... with un protected cells. time to contact CS

I don't expect any order shipped before 8 November to be protected.

my order was made nov 28th. do you mean after nov 8th? ill still use them, but im sure they will get over discharged at some point

Whatever you are drinking or smoking, can I have some?

haha oopppsss... october 28th lol.. maybe i need to drink or smoke something?

short 5 min chat with cs live chat, they offered me a $7 gift card. i asked if you can use 2 giftcards on one order because i have a $1.50 from a delayed shipment and id like to use both at the same order. so they canceled the $1.50 card, and gave me a $9 giftcard.

there was some confusion at first, id assume a language error. but im happy, as long as the gift card actually works

mmmh... Still waiting for mine... Sent near 1 month ago :( .. My UFH3 which was sent a few days later already arrived last weekend

I "think" I have started the refund process. Their site is a bit confusing.

if you dont mind a gift card for more than you spent on them, the live chat was quick. i did mention that alot of people on budget light forum got the wrong batteries in this sale

this gift card is going towards the uf-2100 ive wanted for some time im pretty sure

They offered me a $9 gift card or protected batteries.

I went for the batteries.

They responded within 24hrs too, can't complain about their CS here.

Have you opened a paypal dispute or just DD’s CS?, How many pairs did you order? Please keep us updated if they send the batteries.

No Paypal dispute, that's always a last resort for me.

Done through their CS. I only ordered one pair.
