[pedalinbob]

I wasnt sure where to post this, but it is one heck of a deal. $10 for an inova 24/7!

I ordered it on friday, but left town on saturday. i came home tuesday, and the box was on my porch.

i can find nothing wrong with the light. it is very nice.

it came in the original packaging with a little lanyard and battery.

Your link comes up "page cannot be displayed".

The correct URL is this:

http://shop4.outpost.com/product/3665065

Please don't use the URL above, which doesn't work, and if fixed in the obvious way includes a session ID that would give everyone the same shopping cart.

This is an extremely good deal. I really like the flexibility of my 24/7, just don't ever remove the battery unless the light is in the "OFF" position, or you'll be in for a nasty surprise (as in the light won't work).

Wow, thanks Pedalinbob! This is a great deal indeed! Gonna get it while the sale is still on. And thanks for the heads up sotto /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Thanks pedalinbob, it's like the Solutions deal revisited. I didn't get enough of them then, so I picked up a few more for presents this time around!

Sweet deal!!! I know a couple of people who would want one of these, and this is just the right price!!!

 

[Zephyr]

Is this just an online deal? Or will the stores carry this same sale price? I might stop by my nearest Frys store later...This is indeed an awesome deal!

 

[LEDmodMan]

Well, a couple of quick phone calls and I placed an order. Five total with 2nd day shipping (only $1.50 more than ground) for just under $60!!! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif I had to pay with a credit card though. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/broke.gif

I am giving three of these for gifts, and my dad bought two for flying. He said he had seen these in a flying catalog for $60 each!!! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon6.gif He also said that he looked at one at a store a couple of weeks ago and almost bought one for $40!

Thanks for finding this great deal Bob!!! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bowdown.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/clap.gif Four for the price of one, can't beat that!!! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif

i keep playing, er, uh, testing mine, and still havent found anything wrong with it.

switch seems fine. bat cover seems fine. light is bright, broad and very smooth. all functions are present.

a very useful little light.

mine makes 57 lux on high, and 3-5 lux on low--perfect for reading in the dark.
the red as crazy bright, and very smooth.
the flashing modes could be useful.

oh, and inova really did their homework. i notice that the switching is logical: rotate clockwise = low beam, then high beam. rotate counterclock = red.

this makes sense to me. i believe that a light should start out DIM, to prevent goofing up night vision or waking people up.

Thanks Bob. Deal is online only, $9.90 each. Interestingly, the blurb says ground shipping starts at $4.83 but it actually showed up as something like $6.91 when I tried to order one unit. I bumped the order to 2 units to spread the shipping cost out and the shipping cost went up to $8.34. With tax the order came to just under $30 total, or $15 each. If I sell the extra one on BST, I'll have to spend maybe $3 shipping it and another $1 on Paypal fees. So I'll have to charge close to $20 just to break even on the $9.90 light. It sounds pretty bogus but that's how the math works out.

The "Dont change the Battery while on" issue has been fixed.. it has been for about a year. So the newer ones are not affected.

Yup, sweet deal... Bought Lots myself!!!!!

Thanks Bob,

I just got three with tax and 2 day shipping for $40.

All the best,

Marc

My only complaint about this light is that it doesn't have a lower setting for red. I'd gladly give up one of the flashing modes for that.

 

[electronics4life]

Ordered 4. I am going camping labor day weekend with my 3 nephews. My 3 nephews are aspiring flashaholics. Oh, and I need one for me self to play with too. LOL

yeah, i noticed that as well.

the red is BRIGHT! i would trade the red/yellow "dim/fade" setting for a dim red mode.

still a sweetheart, though.

i missed the last bargain, so this was a real gem.

Just got this

Thank you for your order J624xxxxxx.

Please note that the item(s) listed below have been removed from your order per your request to Customer Service or because the item is no longer available from the manufacturer.

I didn't cancel it... Anyone else get this?

 

[marcspar]

I just got it also! When I ordered, they were in stock according to the webpage.......

Oh well! Anyone want to sell an extra?

Marc

 

[paulr]

Hmm, I got an email confirmation and no cancellation (yet). I placed my order pretty early this morning, so maybe they ran out earlier in the day. I guess I should have ordered 3 for $40 instead of two for $30. I hestitated to even order two, but I knew I could unload the extra one.


Countycomm sells a red version of this light for $30. I played with one and it's very well built.
