What should I expect?

[CallmeSleeves]

I just ordered a Trustfire X6, it is my first "budget" light. I've read that a lot of people recieve these light in questionable condition. "DOA' "Monday morning Special" I've never experienced that before. Can some please tell what all this means, and what to expect in my new light. And what I should do about it if anything goes wrong.

I have a couple of Trustfire lights that give no problems at all. With budget lights they often need complete cleaning, solder reflowing, and tightening the ring in the tailswitch. Don't worry until you get a troublesome light.

You may well be lucky and get a decent one.Plenty of decent budget lights in the big shed stores where you can take it back if it does not work.

The site makes me laugh all day long.Grown adults buy a cheap torch from your local no 33 with rice and when it is d.o.a go about trying to fix it because they waited so long for the thing in the first place.

Plenty of good budget lights on the market place if you are quick.I got a brand new Romisen for £5 including the post and packing because the member did not want it,it was a steal at that money.
