Now I am curious as well so sub-ed
They look totally different from the leds in my 3x and 4x SRK (both probably not cree as well)
These look like a good shape for zoomies though
Yes I bought magnification clip on lens with leds to make pics of leds
I put the pics in the fake cree awareness thread.
Today SRK nr 3 arrived, leds were even worse
I buy at AliExpress because of their nice dispute method so far this is the outcome:
opened disputes for first SRK, ultrafire C8, ultrafire zoomie (the infamous G700), another ultrafire that was send instead of ordered flashlight - all full refund no shipping back.
Opened dispute for the second SRK and sent pics to seller of the third asking for a genuine SRK (likely dispute needed as well)
I ordered 10 neutral white XML2s (€27 AliExpress) and 2 DIY V1 sets with mcpcb (€20 inc shiping RMM) to mod 2 to practice and our idea is to order the V2 set at RMM to mod two more.
So it seems like we have decent SRK s for less then $20 a piece thanks to overrated ads on AliExpress.
