How I read this thread.

To be fair, everyone likes free stuff. It is a matter of morals to whether be fully honest or not doing the review.

This is also how amazon has been operating for the past couple years, but I highly doubt that we will see that level of bias here on BLF…

It also comes with a clip, lanyard and a small assortment of replacement parts if you should ever need them. Since it is similar to the Convoy M1 i will use the Convoy as a reference in this review.

Since there are several reviews of this light already on BLF and my good camera is on the fritz this is an abbreviated review
This is a general all purpose light that balances throw and flood, similar to its predecessor and the Convoy M1 (which i consider the reference of all purpose lights). There are a few improvements over its predecess…

Impressions
The reason for this review is to highlight daily use thoughts and not redo the technical tests already thoroughly described.
In my long quest to find a fully charging charger (with various devices that charge to 4.04-4.15V) i purchased this charger, based on its features and the the thorough tests conducted by HKJ (the go to guy for all hardware). Took over a month to receive it, and upon charging the first battery it read as 4.2V.
Then a…
It came last week but i got the wrong plug, Xtar was very gracious and sent me a new north america plug which arrived today
2. Which would you like to make a review? The newest LED flashlight, other flashlight or charger etc…

Banggood, are you going to address this or not?
I want to be able to trust suppliers/retailers to do what they say they will do. Without that trust, I wouldn’t buy from you no matter how good the reviews are!

I got a reply about 8hrs ago from them.
I’ve purchased enough from them over the last couple of years to be happy with them as a webshop. I’ll gladly do some reviews for them!
