dont need to be anything special... just something the right price to justify buying this... almost thinking this would be better though... anyone know the lego-ability of the "spicer" fire x-07? to me it seems the same as the aurora sh290 with an extension tube
but if i dont get the xg-v3 now while its discounted, ill never get it
cheap 1 cell charger with one or 2 cells would be fine.

Dinodirect has the Trustfire flames for like $6.70 a pair.

And you can buy that charger from Serena on here for I believe around $19 counting the car charger.
$6.70 TF flames are the way to go (if you don't want to buy XTARs)
If you decide to buy those from DD, you can as well throw in this charger ($5.99 - 20% = $4.79 in DD, $4.70 in DX). It's not the best possible charger, but good for the price paid.
cheapest universal charger for 1 cell(I bought that for emergence or travels, is slow and not smart but do the job)
DD flames looks the better choice, I have 14500 and 18650 in the way, but them send me the photo first of ship and have hologram
TF flames (DD) + XTAR WP2 (SERENA)
or, if you want better battery
XTAR 2600 + XTAR WP2 (Serena)
Quality item for cheap price. You can spend less but battery are in my opinion the most important part in a flashlight and charger has to be reliable (this summer i broke two cheap charger).
i decided to go with this for my 1st 18650 setup:
2 Pcs TrustFire Protected 18650 2400mAh 3.7V Lithium Battery
TrustFire 18650 Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Travel Charger 4.2V 600mAh
TrustFire TF-R2 Cree 3-Mode Whiter Light LED Flashlight
total w/coupon = $32.05 hows that for budget?
i think ive decided the xg-v3 is flashy and neat, really cool design... BUT... how much will it get used? and DDs sale/coupon code means good time to save some $$$$
..and your next purchase will be some XM-L P60 dropin (like this MF UF 3-mode one), from which you take the pill to TF-R2. :) More info here.
One of the easiest "mods" available, and the result will surprise both you and your friends!
exactly why i wanted that torch lol
i plan on getting a few p60 hosts, figured that tf would fit right in
http://www.dinodirect.com/ultrafire-c8-led-flashlight-1mode-210lumens.html
anyone know if thats a good light? or is it a knock off ?
im leary of DD, never bought from them but know their rep
Let me know if want a custom P-60 drop in and I will hook you up,
with all the positive feedback, one of your drop-ins is a must once i get the extra cash....
does anyone have this ultrafire c8? anyone know if its any good, even as a host? im very sceptical of anything from this site so i want to know for sure before i pull the trigger tomorrow. if no one knows ill leave it out... on the same page about 2" from each other it says its 210l and 1100l. id say 210 is closer to actual probably but dont know
No personal experience, but it seems to be a pretty basic "generic" C8 with old(ish) emitter&driver.
Could be quite ok host though.
