I have no horse in this race because I don't own any zebra lights. I will say this however. Have any of you all complaining about the shipping tried to ship worldwide recently? It's an absolute disaster. I don't blame them at all for not wanting to do that on any kind of a large scale because customer complaints would be out the wazzoo. It took almost 2 months for me to ship a bezel to the UK.
It's impossible to handle the outside factors for a company with such a good rep as zebra light. And you all know how humans are. Ship something out of country and it takes more than a couple days you are already getting bitchy emails. I don't blame them a bit. We ARE still in the middle of a pandemic. I see these threads every few years on here, on Reddit, on edcforums. "Is zebralight closing up shop"?
Google it same topic every few years for the same reasons then things go back to normal. This year we have extenuating circumstances of course.
Good post. I agree with the international shipping. It's a no win situation. Also, I can imagine much fraud occurring, whereas a customer would say he never received a product and ZL, to save their reputation, mail out a replacement on their dime.
I just really think allot of hard feelings and speculation could be avoided if ZL would just come out with an official statement.
For me, I'm just sorry I never tried a ZL a decades or so ago. It would have saved me thousands of dollars. It seems to me that theses other makers coming into the game are just looking to make lights as bright as possible.
No regulation, no efficiency, etc. I don't want a light that will set poop on fire, but that seems to be the gauge nowadays for these new gimmick lights. Between the lack of temperature control, regulation and ghetto backlighting of the lens, etc, you can keep them all. They will never have a home here with me
