In for one!!! Who gonna be the list keeper?

 

[onthebeam]

Happy to be of help. But, no list. . . Please see earlier post to contact Amilite directly. Cheers!

I just bought this today at $72.00 plus $12.00 shipping .

I should get a 10.00 refund since I'm a CPF member. I will
e-mail Amilite and see what happens.

 

[cheapo]

Well.... $84 isnt so bad for what its numbers read, but you make sure you get that $10 refund.

But we need a group buy to get the break on shipping? OK we need 20 or more people to form a list

"Good things come to those who wait"
It's quite logical to wait for a GB, esp for a new light. Take it slow ya Hope ya get your $10 back.

So any Singaporeans doing a GB for this to save on shipping? Or maybe CEJ bring in? It technically should be even cheaper here... But waiting even more might be better for those who want a modded Amilite... hmmm...

why mod?????? The only things I could think of improving is the switch and the reflector (to make it a smaller spor and increase throw).

Variable brightness, my friend
Nowadays I no longer hunt for the biggest lumen numbers (blasphemy!!!), but things that can be big AND small in the same package. (erm, talking about flashlights here I think High and low output would be better terms )

as i said... switch. That would make a fine light if it were two stages, as if it werent alreay a fine light.

Well improving the switch could mean like trying to make a clicky or button somehow.... so I wouldn't have known you meant 'switch' as in 2 stage output...

I'm not sure this will save a lot. Who is going to repackage and remail them for nothing? The PO will give you the boxes if you go priority but you still need labels etc.

I know... and I hope I wanst "sounding" rude. I wonder if the VG FB1 tailcap would fit its threads... hmmm.

I hope I wasn't sounding rude either... I was just clarifying... I guess the twisty operation keeps the light small, but having to twist it on and off for multi-stage levels (if that's how it's gonna work) is gonna be a little messy

The Amilite illustrates why I've taken a hiatus from buying LED lights and now buy only incandescents: LED lights are improving too swiftly to allow me to be content with what I've just bought!

 

[Perfectionist]

Nail on the head Paul !!

I'm gonna TRY and hold back .... until the likes of Amilite, Jilite, Fenix etc start producing an improved range with built-in multi level brightness .... but then I'm afraid I may blow my entire Credit Card limit on all of them .....

Hopefully, the mythical LRI Proton will appear just in time to prevent this !!

 

[tsask]

:wow: Looks good. I wonder how it compares with the Peak Carribean? brightness? run time??

 

[cheapo]

check out the review on flashlightreviews.com. I have not bought a light in a while, and this is the light I have been waiting for.... cant wait.

Noticeably brighter than the Caribbean but only about half the runtime. Check out www.flashlightreviews.com to compare the reviews of each.
