Hi there,

As you know, or not, I have sold my Porsche 3GD incandescent last week, because I needed some bucks for buying some other LED Flashlights. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif

I ordered the new porsche 3GD LED for replaced my sold one.
Which error!
It's really a low cost product, nothing to see with the surefire model, it's a "made in China" product, with maybe 1W Led Fraen Optic and without lens /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif
The tailcap is a click on/off switch but of bad quality /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon15.gif
The power is provided by 3 AAA in serial (see pict).
It is impossible to unscrewed the head /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif
The cost is 75 Euros, $100.00 actually !!
The Surefire Porsche one was 187 Euros, $240.00 actually
The engraved porsche Logo is not made of same quality as the one in the surefire porsche!!

It is really a bad copy of the surefire Porsche Flashlight

I am very sad, and don't recommend to anyone to buy this production. I regret my Porsche surefire one, but I am happy that BugoutgearUSA got it at this low price /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Here some pictures of this "toilet" product !!

Hey you've got it Bernhard, the AAA batteries are Led-Lenser one /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon15.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon15.gif So it's a Led-Lenser /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

What's a Guinea Pig ? Le (cobaille) cobaye en Français ? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crackup.gif
 
Really? LED LENSER? PORSCHE is selling a LEDLENSER light?

Well ... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon15.gif ... I have to officially apologize to all of you in the name of German engineering ... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crackup.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
This is an outrage !

P.S.: the term Guinea Pig is employed for the first one to buy and test a new product. I have no clue why, I just use it and sound like a smart-*** /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif.
Le cobaille ... désolé, je ne connais pas ce mot /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Haha even the lens have a hole in em so your both right. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crackup.gif so how do you get info of the SureFire version of the Porsche light?

Guinea Pigs were/are used for live animal testing of drugs and such. Thus the first to do something is called the "Guinea Pig"!

Sorry Bernhard, I made a mistake, in French guinea-pig is a "cobaye" and not "cobaille" /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon15.gif
And in French, "faire le cobaye", is exactly the same sens as guinea-pig, it's a sort of beta-testeur /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif
But Guinea-pig is more like "cochon-d'inde" than "cobaye" /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif
 
This thread starts to feel like the old days in school ... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif ... feels /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif
