@bykfixer has one, and as I recall, he rather likes it.I am interested in this light, but here in The Netherlands, cheapest option I can currently find is EUR 159.95 ($169) which is a really extremely overpriced for this light. I can get a nice Malkoff including international insured shipping for that price, so that's definitely out of the question.
Yeah, if my options are Maglite or Malkoff for the same amount of money; I'm always picking the latter.I am interested in this light, but here in The Netherlands, cheapest option I can currently find is EUR 159.95 ($169) which is a really extremely overpriced for this light.

How much would it cost @Ishango to have a member from east coast US ship to him in EU?I do, I do, but not enough to pay $159 (169) for it.
Welcome to the club. When I buy EU lights I pay exchange rate, high shipping, and some times bank wire fees.I am interested in this light, but here in The Netherlands, cheapest option I can currently find is EUR 159.95 ($169) which is a really extremely overpriced for this light.

I already was welcome to the club. There are not a lot of lights made in the EU. I'm paying shipping and all those costs pretty much for every light in my collection. But my point was more that the price in US was $89 according to Maglite without sales (which they have often) and the price here is pretty much doubled. And that only seems to apply to Maglite as if it's on purpose. I can get StreamLight, Acebeam, Fenix and ZebraLight torches here from local sellers for not much higher prices than I would buy them overseas myself.Welcome to the club.

There are a lot of lights made, assembled, and/or designed in the EU and if you include Norway, Swiss, UK, and Russia the list grows even bigger. I have spent the past 11 months or so studying about them and buying as many as I can get my hands on. I'll have a report on BLF in December about it.I already was welcome to the club.

What kind of luck have you guys had with Mag's warranty department? I picked up a 3AA with a broken LED module. It also has some battery corrosion inside, which they say could invalidate service, but it's not related to the LED problem.
That sounds very 'poor' to me, and indeed very disappointing. I'm being very kind here. I won't write what I'm actually thinking:-(...someone at Mag must have thought they could do better so they scratched the hell out of the area with a file.
So they took a non working, long since out of production light and got it going again..... for no charge and scratched up the inside? Yeah, that's terrible customer service alright.That sounds very 'poor' to me, and indeed very disappointing. I'm being very kind here. I won't write what I'm actually thinking:-(
