Anyone heard of "Spotlight"

[Twistedsteel]

It seems pretty cool, lots of different colors to choose. Why didn't someone think of it sooner? I'm gonna order me a couple, you can never have too many lights.

Sooner? In one for or another, they have been around for years. There are even several old threads on that specific brand. I'm sure you could find them with a quick search

The titanium mini 12v spotlight was introduced before 2008...

Oh man. No offense, but there have probably been more duplicate threads about this particular light than about any other.

 

[Twistedsteel]

Oh sorry, I had never seen one before and thought it was kinda neat. I did do a search first, I guess I should have typed in 12v, you wouldn't believe how many threads come up with the word spotlight in it on a flashlight forum.

Yup, I've spent hours trying to find one specific thread on here.
I find you have to use trickery with this search engine. :welcome:

Search for this: weiguo It's the original name of it. Then, if you are interested in purchasing, batteryjunction.com has them on special till the end of Feb. Pretty good light in general. And here's a more complete review: http://www.dansdata.com/spotlight.htm

Welcome to CPF, Twistedsteel.

That light is an example of one that is actually very difficult to find using a search here - as you say, the keyword "spotlight" will throw up hundreds of results. Adding "12v" would not help, as 3-letter keywords aren't accepted.

Fortunately gchronis has helped us out and given a link to an external review; there are also threads about it here, including this one.

This looks like a good moment to mention my review of it

 

[Twistedsteel]

Thanks for the tips guys. I don't really post alot as you can see, mainly I just pop in from time to time and see whats goin on. I actually just purchased a M60 and a M60F from Gene for my 6P Defender, very impressed. I also have Nitecore Defender, a few Fenix's, Fulton, several Maglites(which need to be modded) and a Zebra H50 which is one of my favorites. Well thanks again and I'll try to post more and keep up to date on all this stuff.

Oh and Fallingwater your link no workie.

It might have been mentioned in earlier threads, but if not, WalMart has a very similar light in the automobile aisle for, I think, around $10. Might have to go have another look tomorrow. I was concerned about overcharging, but maybe it's not really a worry.

Says "website declined to show web page." "possible causes: site requires you to log in"

 

[Fallingwater]

Never heard of this error :thinking:

Anybody else getting this? My site definitely does not require a login.

 

[Marduke]

Link works for me.

 

[alfreddajero]

Your link works fine for me as well....great review by the way.

 

[Twistedsteel]

Yeah it's wierd, It won't let me on the site. It's an Internet Explorer error. I found the name of the site and just typed it in and it still won't allow it to open. Oh well, I have a couple on the way so I'll find out soon.

Well there's yer problem....Who uses IE anymore??

Me

 

[Fallingwater]

There's a reason why most computer-savvy users have switched over to Firefox or Opera.

Still, weird that it gives you that problem. I don't have anything weird going on; the site should be visible on ie as well. Anyone mind firing up iexplore.exe and pasting the link? I'm curious as to whether this happens with ie all the time. I'm on Linux so I can't try ie myself.
