This is a master thread whose sole purpose is to allow CPF Members to post a link to an interesting light found on the WWW or in a brick 'n morter store.

By posting your interesting findings, here, it will allow less clutter in the other forums.

Why this thread: Over the last several months, there has been an explosion in off shore lights, new WWW retailers, and even big stores carrying new and interesting lights. This has led to a multitude of simple posts all over CPF, pointing to these new lights/finds. It was causing clutter, confusion and controversy. With this thread, it is hoped that a simple look at this thread will allow the reader to quickly discover a new or interesting light.

Of course, if you find a light and wish to post a review or worthwhile commentary, i.e. technical, usage, etc, it can be posted in the appropriate forum.

EXAMPLES:

"New LED light at Jimbos" www.jimbos.com
"New light at Target"
"Sears has the new Ray-O-Vac X5000"


GUIDELINES:

--All flashlight related links are permitted, including LED and Incan. SPAM is not.

--Please limit your posting to a link and a sentence or two. Please, no extended postings, reviews, discussions, etc in this master thread.

--All existing CPF rules are in effect. Postings in this master thread will be reviewed and edited/deleted/merged as seen fit by CPF Staff.

Since this new thread needs some activity, and we need to consolidate all the new at DX and Kai pointers...

DX has Cree XR-E Q2 Emitter with Star $8.90 for one or $7.67 shipped for five or more.

If new finds are consolidated here then a single thread subscription will keep you up to date and the forum won't be flooded with new find reports.

Hi CPFer's
I was in Walmart today and noticed in the flashlight dep't that they had a couple new lights they haven't carried before.

1) 1 Watt aluminum brinkmann led that takes 2AA batts and looks like the minmag led for 13 bucks.

2) 1 Watt aluminum rayovac version of the nuwai 2AA led and the river rock at target for 15 bucks.

3) A smith and wesson with multi color options
8 5mm white leds, 2 5mm green leds, and 2 red 5mm leds.

go find and enjoy and oh I didn't buy any.

I noticed four things today in Walmart.

1) Lower $19 red tag price on 2AA Mag LED.

2) Similar drop in price on at least one larger Mag LED

3) Lower price for Dorcy Metal Gear 3AA.

4) 3 Watt Rayovac (Nuwai) 2AA for $24.95
