Legend LX - coordinated buys ??
Not in all my many years of light-loving experience (OK, so I registered about 8 months ago) have I ever experienced anything like the commotion over this torch. People are crazy-for-it.
Putting self-interest well away ...... (in my case, 10,000 kilometres away ! )
and gathering my courage in both respectable receptacles ......
As Tater Rocket public-spiritedly said, quote - " But it seems there are plenty who can get it, and plenty who want it, so maybe we could set something up. Or not, you all decide ...... "
Well, no-one decided - nothing happened that I am aware of.
Some people want, some people got access. If you know that your local store has some, then isn't there a way to arrange for this ?
Maybe if people post on availability in "Individual for sale/trade" would be the simplest.
Then arrange to use PayPal, or pay however is suitable.
Especially if there isn't a store nearby your city or state.
[BTW, my American flashlighting friends - (you know who you are) the first of you to offer me two (2) LX's will receive - the cash and my nearly-eternal gratitude. Plus a British "nice cup of tea", sent Airmail ...... ]

The Legendary LX won't be an adequate replacement for the 9P or M6 or 10X, etc. - will it ?
I mean, it certainly seems very good value for money, but it's still only a 2x 123.
And the question of it's durability/longevity has to be answered yet.
I would really like to know the bulb's burntime and shock resistance.
Is there any back-up service like SF offer ?
Just that even a great value ~65 Lumen won't put me off buying an 8AX for instance.
If it shakes up the market, all well and good, but one torch won't put SureFire in the shade. (And Streamlight, etc.)
