if it's the same as the L3, it has only 2 modes.(non flashy) You can set the first mode as you desire, but that's not a whole lot better than the king imho.
As soon as someone reminds me of the FT discount code, it will be on the way. One good point about this light if someone is trying to keep costs down is it only uses 3 batteries instead of 4. Was showing an uncle some 4 cell lights the other day and informed him of the light price, plus the battery price. Premium batteries cost almost as much as the lights.
At least if I order now, I will get an “original” copy of the original. If it isn’t up to my expectations and someone else comes up with an improvement…so be it!
What I can’t stand is getting a fake, of a fake, of a fake. Then I feel cheated, in fact I have very little confidence in any of the older lights. From here on in, nothing but 1st edition fakes for me!
- Applying the code shows $0.00 discount => :(
- Refreshing the cart page (old trick) shows $3.80 (10% discount) => :)
- Going to paypal shows total of $38.00 (no discount, well.. maybe it updates when I return to WB, didn't!!) =>
=> Yes, I accidentally ordered it with $38. Don't make the same mistake!
