Anyone have any of these lights from Dae (www.qualitychinagoods.com)?

Thinking about picking some up to fool around with...and I like the variety of colors they come in. I've ordered other cheap lights from Dae and some have been nice, while others are just "eh" or "bleh".

Thanks.

I bought a couple hundred dollar's worth of lights from DAE and am for the most part pleased.

OK, that 11 LED 3AAA with th "Police" banner is similar to one I have that's powered by 2AAs. Very good quality, especially considering the price. I think the one you are looking at is brighter than the 2AA models I have. Light will have a slight blueish tint but nothing too bad.

Same general info goes for the "Submarine" light.

No info on the "9 LED best version" or the 9 LED Bulletheaded.

My favorite DAE light is the 21 LED Ice Cream II.

Worst thing about DAE lights is that they were out of most colors last time I ordered (October - November). :(

Good to know the 11 LED Police and Submarine ones are pretty good. I'm questioning the 9 LED best and 9 LED Bullethead ones tho since they seem considerably cheaper.
Thanks for the info Bror.

Anyone else have experience with the lights I listed above?

No experience with these in particular. My EDC is similar, the column 12:

and I've sold a few to others. Good balance between size, amount of light and battery life. Runtime test gave close to 6 hours at near full output and 24 total with alkaline. All in all, a very good value for a narrow flood, and if you lose it or manage to scrag it, you are out only a few $. Actually I never have had one fail me - I just buy a few and give away (they make a much appreciated tip) or sell my EDC every now and then. That makes me
