First of all, my sincere apologies to BLF and every member of BLF, including our forum owner, for the total fiasco of the A01 and F13 lights. I am sure I could have handled it better. I am sure it could have been less of a mess, but it ended up being one and all I can do is ask for your forgiveness and understanding.
I thought that I would just put up a Non-Affiliated link to the Old Lumens Nichia 219B Copper 102LM AAA Mini Keychain LED Flashlight.

This way, you can go through a direct link, without any affiliations and in no way am I saying anything bad about M4D M4X, because I highly value everything he has done to try to help. He has been wonderful and gone out of his way to help. I trust him explicitly, but I just wanted a thread clearly stating the regular link and clearly apologizing for the mess.
Banggood has stated they will honor 8% to me. They have sent me one paypal payment for the sale of 2 lights. They say only two have sold.
I will say that I hope some of you will want one, but if not, I can clearly see how you might not want to touch it like the plague and I can understand that.
I also want to say that as far as I am concerned the F13 project is dead. I am just no longer able to physically or mentally tackle that whole bag of worms again. If there ever is another light, it will simply be another existing Astrolux light, with a simple mod, like making it out of Brass or something else, instead of trying to make it over from scratch. I am just not up to that any more.
Again, if you wish, the link is there, if not, I thank you sincerely for putting up with me. I myself, am ashamed at times, for how it all ended up, but time is short, so I let that go and move on as best I can.
Thank you,
Justin Valleau
