The first 555 on the list have until Dec 31 to pay. Everyone else I’m sure will be longer since they didn’t do the deposit. It’s just a straight up $155. I don’t even know if the 555 and up even have a deadline. Maybe TA can answer for sure.
Yep… just depends on what your particular budget limits are though. They may well vary greatly from person to person. What one considers outrageous others may consider a real bargain. ‘One size does not fit all’…….
.
EDIT: If you just want a cheap arse sling & don’t care about quality at all…… just get anything and don’t worry about it.
But when you ask & someone gives you a quality option…. all you can manage to come hack with is telling him his suggestion is “insane”.
Really??? :person_facepalming:
Well. It’s pretty hard to find better and more versatile sling, so for that price it’s a bargain. Why buy crappy sling for a good quality flashlight. Besides, you only need one of those slings because you can easily swap it to another flashlight when needed. Also when I recommended Peak design’s sling I assumed that everybody already knows that Amazon and eBay is full of crappy and uncomfortable slings.
There is also a little bit cheaper version available:
Well said Juusto…… I totally agree. :+1:
It amases me that someone asks for sling suggestions, you give a suggestion for a quality sling, and all they can manage teliing you for your trouble is how “insane” your suggestion is. :person_facepalming:
I never ceased to be amazed…. and not in a good way.
It’s not like this is some cheapo, throw-away light. I’m amazed we’re getting this quality at this price. If a $65 strap makes the light more enjoyable and useable, then I’m all for it. I love the link! :+1:
Buying a strap, (don't think cameras, or what's labelled "specific" by search only.) is easier and cheaper than many think. Consider all the many other things that are carried with similar. And FAR heavier, that do what it needs too just fine.
Cameras, guitars, gym bags, firearms (search rifle sling), water bottles, totes, laptop bags, carry cases in general. There's no need to pay over $15
Slings and gear intended for use with camera’s usually carry a very high price tag purely because the companies assume expensive gear is going to be used with it and as such, people feel better “paying more” relating a high price to a high quality. I see the comparison is for a “$1000+ DSLR”, that’s an entry level consumer camera. My camera’s are $4000 and more for the body only, often times with a $2000 lens (or more) attached. So the strap simply HAS to be good. The companies figure a pro photographer makes a lot of money and as such, can afford to pay for the gear. That’s not always the case though, it depends on the market one lives in. I’m broke. Too dang many flashlights and cells. lol
The point is, try to think about the market that the gear is used in, if it’s an expensive hobby or career the gear associated with it is likely to be overpriced accordingly. So if you look for tool carriers, probably rifle slings, more casual consumer goods related items… the price will be a lot lower and typically made of the same nylon webbing.
(I make my own straps from Kevlar webbing, for what it’s worth)
I really like the short tube :D. It would be awesome if Lumintop offers them later on.
