Anyone have this ke-15? Does it really have five T6 emitters for $29? Strangely, if it is a real Keygos, it doesn’t seem to be on the Keygos site. The only one I can find is on tmart. Googled it.
http://www.tmart.com/KEYGOS-KE15-CREE-XMLT6-8W-700LM-5-Mode-Flashlight-Black-118650_p142447.html
Doesn’t seem to be any mention of it on BLF, although a search gets really tangled up with the ke-5.
It also looks like it takes 2 18650s — or what else is that extension for?
I’d spring for it but don’t want another 5 Q5 light, if that’s waht it really is.
Thoughts?

At 9.4 inches long, it has to be 2 18650s.

The pictures show TR-J12. For that price it would be a steal..
Someone could try gambling with this.. How does Tmart handle "wrong item received"-cases?

Pics show a 2x26650 light with 18650 adapters and 5xT6 emitters. Specs say single 18650 and a single T6 at 8W and 700 lumens.
I have emailed Louis for exact specifics. Will update this when I hear from him about it.

I thought it looked like 26650s …. Well, I snagged one for better or worse. $29 is less than our usual Friday-night take-out pizza dinner.
>>>>>>I have emailed Louis for exact specifics.
Well, if it is a price mistake, we’re shining an overdriven T6 on it now ;) ; )
…. Oh well, I guess it’s the only way to find out.

If tmart is stuck for a light name, looks like they just name it ke-15. ;) ; )
Like I said before, IF (and that’s a big “if”) keygos.com is the real keygos site, there is no ke-15 on it when i checked a few minutes ago.

yeah it’s the wrong picture…it’s probably the 501b clone with a xml drop-in…

If it isn’t the cr+ppy 501, I’ll get a 5 x xml for 30 bucks.
But if it sounds too good to be true ………………

Then again, I don’t care if it’s a Dalyrimple 5678GH instead of a keygos, the description says, plain and simple, that it has 5 t6 emmitters:
Key Features LED flashlight, Flashlight torch
Emitter Type XML - T6
Brightness 700LM
Light Color White
Bulb Quantity 5

Thanks for all your opinions, this item is in suspended state. It will be on after being put right.

Well, they changed some stuff around in the ad but it still seems like a great deal. And the flashlight ad is still up completely live on the site.
However my order has sat there now for a week without shipping. Just says processing. Tmart has shipped fairly quickly in the past.
Emailed them today to see what the deal is and when they will ship.
Has anyone been stuck in the tmart processing loop before?
In fact, I think this is the longest I have waited for any vendor — Chinese or otherwise — to ship in a long, long while. I have a bad feeling about this.

Okay. Tmart notified me that it has shipped. Now to see if it is a multi T6 or a Q5. Or even a Keygos. Or perhaps none of the above.
The price went up to $75.80 so you might be getting quite the deal. :)

Hmmmm interesting. You are right! I just checked a couple days ago and it was still at $29.
