Man, I remember when Mac's Mini Mini's would have been snagged within the first 5 minutes :mecry:
free :bumpit:

thanks! I remember the same. :shrug:
 
Re: 2 of Mac's: Sceptre & mini mini HID*Price Drop*

so are these outdated now, out of style, overpriced? I'm curious what folks opinion is about these?
 
Re: 2 of Mac's: Sceptre & mini mini HID*Price Drop*

My mini mini is a great edition to my collection,its one of my favorites...constantly being asked if its for sale.
 
Re: 2 of Mac's: Sceptre & mini mini HID*Price Drop*

no other opinions? Really? any other of Mac's fans using theirs still or have you just relegated them to the safe? Hard to believe no takers for either of these babies.....
 
Re: 2 of Mac's: Sceptre & mini mini HID*Price Drop*

I think your prices are very fair, if not really good. I sold my Sceptre a few months ago for $400-ish, and it had been carried (but still in near mint condition). The market stinks! And lights that should have moved are sitting.

Good luck!

I think the prices are great .... last year a Sceptre was selling for $500+
With the economy the way it is, everyone is just tighten their belts :(

Free bump :)
 
Re: 2 of Mac's: Sceptre & mini mini HID*Price Drop*

Dang, these are STILL here? :thinking: Just out of curiosity, how does the Mini Mini compare with the Sceptre in terms of output? I've had a Sceptre for almost 6 months now, and I love it. I'd grab the Mini Mini in a heartbeat, but I've got other stuff that I need to get (like a new camera :green:). Oh well. If it sticks around long enough I may get it. Good luck with the sale!
EDIT: The Mini Mini uses the 3.7V rechargeables, right?

CaveDude,

yes, both lights use the r123a's. I've not done a side by side test but it seems to me that they're close. I may have to take some of my r123's out of some other lights to do a test. It seems I never have enough rechargeables on hands due to my flashaholicism!
 
Re: 2 of Mac's: Sceptre & mini mini HID*Price Drop*

Oh, what the hell. I'm in for the Mini Mini.
:takeit:

PM coming soon!
 
Okay, the Mini Mini has arrived. Suffice to say, I'm officially an HID disciple :cool::rock:. I can also speak for the Sceptre, which is a fantastic light. Whoever snags this one is getting a hell of a good deal. There are not very many Sceptres out there.

20th post, yay! I have achieved enlightenment!
