Who has this new Dealextreme-Light? Feedback?

I'm pretty sure Ensenada did a review of it.

Can you provide a link? I tried to search all Ensenada posts but couldn't find it and at DX people are saying they haven't received their order yet. I also ordered one with price mistake but nothing happens yet but a delay email from DX.

My mistake. He got the 1 mode version.

Hopefully the 5 mode version compares the same (or better) on the highest output setting.

Trying to translate but not very good. Look like they tested at 2m while I saw a lot of tests here at 1m. Data look pretty good, waiting for mine to arrive.

Yes, exactly, there is no review about the 5 mode version. At Dealextreme, a lot of modes often means a lot of trouble.

Wait and see, mine is on the way ... :wave:

I am new to CR123 and 16850. Can this light take 2 CR123 and would it be brighter than 1 16850?

i fried my EJY from DX by using two 3V cr123, discribtion here "Li-Battery 3.6V-9V"
taking a look at the comments allways helps

mine will probably be here within two days...an order that shipped 2 days prior to the other one shipping just got here...so we'll see!

Okay, please give us some infos, when your C2 arrives. :thumbsup:

Will wait for your report before buying this light. Have to buy the charger and battery too. So what charger and battery is recommended?

I've got one of these on the way.

Does this mean I shouldn't use CR123s in this ligt? That would be a pita as I don't have any 18650s or any way to charge them.

Today I got mine. And a wf-139 charger but no batteries, they are delayed, so I cant check it out that much :S

:eeksign:

[FONT=&quot]Just received it from DX. I bought it before price change for just 18$ (DX mistake) and it seems like DX send me a FAKE. It smells like burning, even before putting batteries in. [/FONT] [FONT=&quot]When turned on, on high mode it is very dim- about low mode in my other lights.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]When I measured the voltage it is only 2,5V. On low mode is no light at all!!![/FONT] :shakehead
[FONT=&quot]I requested replacement form DX and waiting for the answer. [/FONT][FONT=&quot]They will reply 20 FEB because of Chinse new year.[/FONT]

No problem: You send the package back to China, paying cheap $30 for postage - while you get a new one for $26. :sick2:

DX will have you send the light to an address in Florida.

If you do tracking and confimation they pay for the postage.

I had to return a light and I paid the cheapest shipping. I did not even care about getting a refund on the shipping.

Once they get the light in Florida DX sends you the light from China.
