IHMO there is little to no difference between BG and GB in aspects of reliability and speed (3 wk on avarage). They just don’t sell the same stuff. Try NOT to want something right NOW. Make a list of what you want and wait till there is a flash-sale or someone has a coupon for it. IF the item is also sold by Fasttech, chances are that this is the cheapest. FT offers a bit more speed and a 5% discount with the “BLF”coupon. Atm. BG and GB don’t have general coupons (for BLF members). Sometimes I buy from brand-related stores on Ali (like Liitokala). But also here: wait for sales and discounts. Last but no least: if you want a real Convoy flashlight, buy from Simon on Ali! He will go the extra mile to get you exactly what you want.
