Questions About ThorFire Deals/Products

Now we don’t have TG06 with NW tint, but in the near future we will have more options and upgraded version, according to customer experience and comment.

On VG10 listing and manual, it says the brightness level in the order of High-Mid-Low-Moonlight.

My VG10 arrived yesterday, and it has the four modes, no blinkies.

That’s what it says, and that’s exactly what kept me from ordering, like, 10 of them, back when I had the chance. Well, at least a few more.

But mine definitely goes moonlight/low/mid/high. I can take a video of it doing just that. And that’s the kind I’d definitely want more of. If high-to-low, not interested.

So how can I be sure of what’d be offered in any group-buy?

Good point What recourse do you have usually with a groupbuy? Is there a standard policy in place?

I checked the manual and it says ML-L-M-H so don’t agree on that with Thorfire.

Maybe we should keep this conversation in the proper category for the groupbuy so we have it recorded.
And if you have the manual or any specs you want Thorfire to be obliged to please post them as well.

It looks really neat. I would be interested as well in a few of them. what was the price before it went AWOL?

By the way what in the world are these product pics supposed to demonstrate in their Amz store?

Umm, I think you mean you agree with me. :smiley:

Ads and reviews say high-to-low (boooo).

Mine’s low-to-high (yay).

TF just “confirmed” per the listing/manual that it’s high-to-low (booooo).

If ordered through Amazon, if it says high-to-low, you’re “assured” off-channel that it’s low-to-high, buy it, and it’s wrong, you might be SOL. If it’s advertised as low-to-high as you want it, but it arrives high-to-low, you can return it penalty-free with their “a to z” guarantee, as it doesn’t match the description.

No idea if it’s done through a group-buy what recourse there’d be.

Ha! Saw your edit…

That if you had a TG05 light, you wouldn’t be left hanging like that.

LOL that is funny, what was the pricing on the TG05 before it was discontinues?
Hope we can bring it back.

Don’t recall offhand.

Yeah, looked like a nice light. I’d def be tempted.

Yes, saw my typo and edited that, I totally agree with you. The instruction manual and Amazon listing says clearly that it goes from “Moonlight/Low/Mid/High from 0.5 - 847LM ”
I guess they changed it and didn’t “TF” know.

Meanwhile I looked at some reviews and now I see why is it so confusing there seems to be 2-3 different versions of VG-10 over the years. 2 with H-M-L-ML and the one you have and advertised on Amzn is ML-L-M-H

Looks like you have the “newest-newer” model and all of the reviews are discussing the ” older or the other newer” version with H/M/L/ML.

Anyways, in the groupbuy thread, I specified the modes so we can be clear on what we are interested in. I don’t remember anyone preferring the H/M/L.

In HML, you start in high, and only if it’s just way too bright do you back it down, so tend to use a higher mode than necessary. And after already being blinded and your night-vision ruined, you now “need” a brighter mode.

In LMH, you start in low and only if you need/want more light do you kick it up a notch, so you tend to use the “just right” brightness level.

So yeah, my natural dislike for HML seems to be what lots of people agree with me in preferring LMH, but unfortunately, all too many lights still get sold as HML.

Hi Guys,

ThorFire group buy thread was created: ThorFire Official Deals- Save 45% on 500 Lumen TG06S flashlight($9.89), 6th Dec 2018 Updated
ThorFire VG10 is included. More items will follow on.
With regards to what will be included in the GB/what aspects ThorFire products need to improve, here we still would like to hear your comments and suggestion.

BTW, Lightning deals on VG15 flashlight is coming. Deal information will be posted on ThorFire Deals later on.

Could you please help specify which detail parts of the VG10 flashlight we should keep as a most welcomed VG10 host? Thanks.

I’d say it’s about perfect as-is.

My own preferences, I immediately took off the pocket-clip, as it gets in my way.

Ditto the “tactical ring”. Gets in my way, keeps me from holstering the light.

But, people might like them, so it wouldn’t hurt to include them.

I’d include a few extra O-rings, a switch (just the switch itself, not a whole new tailcap), and possibly front glass, ’though you can make those optional for those who need them. But O-rings tend to wear out over time, so…
