Ferei is coming hard, not only price-wise but check this out

A battery with TWO positive ends??? WOW!!! Now that’s hardcore…LOL! Printing on that battery is confusing as hell. It looks at first glance that both ends are positive. Who here has a charger that fits an 181300 battery?

4

That UF 270 is sweet, sweet stuff! I'm betting they are going to sell a lot of those to the members here. Just look at those ample, clean threads...

5

...and recessed switch for tail-standability!

6

That likely means a dedicated charging system - FAIL.

Too bad about the proprietary pos/neg end there - this could have been a good replacement for the B90 battery used in the Surefire rechargeable torches.

7

I guess you charge it here :

8

Why is there a "r=43033281" ending in every link fran82 is posting, affiliate URL? trying to make some extra money?

9

It does look very nice, but its also sure to be quite the hand warmer.

10

Busted!

11

The steel C3 lookalike is nice but overheating is just 5 seconds after firing it up. :/

The dual positive terminal battery is truly an epic fail. :)

Thanks for the good laugh. Still giggling...

12

I don't find that offensive in any way. If he makes a few cents good for him. No harm to me whatsoever.

13

I prefer full disclosure.

14

So that's why some post waves of new products.

15

Hmmm... you never realized everything he links to is from DX and they always come in waves (as Hikelite puts it)? :D

I was starting to think he was employed by DX but I never thought about an affiliate program.

I'm okay with it if that's the case as long its disclosed (it's only fair) but I don't buy from DX so I mostly ignore them ;)

16

Sorry, never liked referrals :bigsmile: Prefer ManaPoints slyle, buy item - receive cash, post a review - receive cash :bigsmile: Referals <= spam IMHO.

Whatever, not the best place to talk about that. :bigsmile:

As for those flashlights... man, those guys @FEREI are f%$kin' crazy S) This light was $151, and now... $277 :O From what that light is made of? Body from gold and diamond emitter?

UPDATE: ok, looks like it's not FEREI "fault", DX just deleted decimal point to make it 10 times more expensive :| ... man, those guyz @DX are f&%kin craaazyyy :evil:

17

Boom !

( i am only responding on one word responses today - disregard the words to explain that please : )

18

The symbol at the bottom of the battery is a repeat of the symbol on the end cap and usually would be used to tell the plug type to be used for charging, but is opposite to what the end cap states. WTF indeed. I would be using a DMM to be sure on this one.

181300? Does this have 2 18650's in it set up in parallel and the outer shell is +ve? odd indeed.

19

I don't have an issue with referrals aslong as it does not cost extra, It is just one member helping another.

fran82 has commented before on the pitiful amount that the referral program brings in so it is not a new thing.

20

I don't really care. Saves me spending hours trolling through dx. Do you get points for someone looking or do they have to buy?
