Doesn't look too bad. But those pictures are a little deceiving.. Not high resolution.

$23

Only 2 modes? On and off?

And picture looks more like XPE than XML.

This also doesn't look to bad, not a headlamp though

$5,58

Edit: will change the thread title.

That ultrafire light looks good.

if only it confirms a solid pill

..and if it confirms an aluminium reflector.

I’m interested in the angle light. Hopefully it is mechanical switch and does come with solid pill.

Title changed again... Not just for the headlamp.

590 has plastic reflector and semi hollow pill if i am not wrong. Avoid.

Reg. Tmart.com and it’s deals:
Early March I’ve bought one of their special offers: “Cree XML T6 2000LM 3 Modes Zoomable Green Light LED Headlamp Green $9.99” It took ages and some reminders til it was finally shipped and found its way to me (received the package 13.05.15). The only place I saw a XML T6 was on the sticker on the white box. Inside the headlamp it’s only a XP-E. Customer service asked for pictures, I’ve send them, and all they offered me were some points for compensation! So I opened a case with Paypal. Tmart asked to close it before they give me a refund. I used customer protection instead and got my money back recently. I still don’t understand what was so difficult for them in either sending me the right product I’ve paid for or refund me asap.

Their folks, after referring me around in a circle for a few days, offered me the full value of a light (half-dead-on-arrival) as points.
I checked their fine print online and found you can only use “points” for a tenth of any purchase.
They were trying to rope me into spending 9x as much as I’d already spent with them.

I insistend on a refund, and did get their prepaid shipping label, returned the light, and got the refund within a couple of days.

Watch’em.

Thanks for the warnings!

Buy at your own risk.

I’ve ordered only once from Tmart.
Shipping was little slow compared to Fasttech or Bangood but item arrived as described.
By the way, it was Sipik SK98. It has hollow pill.

If you buy enough lights, bad experiences will happen with all Chinese vendors. I just went through a spell of receiving 4 of 10 lights that were DOA. None were purchased from Tmart. Tmart has some of the best sales and you can use Tmart points on any purchase, even heavily discounted items. One of the better deals they run is the Tangsfire C8 for $13 minus $1.30 in Tmart points, total $11.70.

Ive had variable experience with Tmart, but mostly positive, mostly because SK68 clone that I bought was 1-mode, not 3-mode as advertised.

They used to sell genuine Leatherman multi tools from their US warehouse on Ebay at competing prices so I bought a pair.

Pitty they dont sell them anymore.

Oh and that black Ultrafire light posted here - looks like JetBeam BA10 light :D!

> you can use Tmart points on any purchase

Only points up to ten percent of the total purchase price, they told me. That correct in your experience?

Yes they do not let you use points under 10$ purchase and you can not use more then 10% of your total.
If offered for compensation this is not good. I have got 1$ as compensation for an AA light not using 1.2V but 3.7V batteries.
I have had about 160 points, and my purchase was about 12$, I could only use 1.2$ with points.

Yes 10% of total can be redeemed in points. Just about all of the lights I buy are at special discounted prices. Most of the major Chinese retailers will not let you use points on discounted items. Because of that, I have lots of points that will never be used. Tmart will let you use points even on discounted items. Best point system of all retailers in my book.

I received their promo e-mail and they have MT21A for 26.99$, I also have received 400 T-mart points from them for free, so 26.99-2.7=24.99$ for MT21A, not bad.

The angle light is currently out of stock as I asked their sales rep a few minutes ago. Luckily I did inquire them about this before I place the order. Wonder why they always not updating their stock status?
