Nitecore TM-11 "tiny Monster" clone, $75 instead of $260: What do you think?

I accidentally found this at Manafont.com, while looking up modules just now. Here's the link:

It has 3 XM-L T6, 2000lu, it is anodized gold, and it looks very close to the TM-11. It has only 3 modes I believe.^^

SKY RAY KING CREE XM-L T6 3-LED 2000-Lumen 3-Mode Flashlight - Golden (4*18650)

Here's another listing I found interesting, although I wont buy this brand of batteries:



These are Protected Ultrafire 18650's, supposedly 4,000mah!^^:naughty:

I know "you get what you pay for usually", but I wonder how good that Nitecore TM-11 clone is? Thats between 1/3- 1/4th the price of the TM-11. Has anyone ever bought this light, or any of the other cheaper clones? How did they work out for you?

Do not link directly to sales sites - Norm

You may need to remove those links. I believe it's against forum policy to hot link products.

I think rather than a clone what your look at is a cheap copy.

Clone infers it's an identical copy which it clearly isn't.

Looks good for the money, although it's been mentioned before in a couple of short-lived threads.
The main problem I have with this light is there are no trustworthy, detailed reviews on it.
Oh, and the gold/brass color unfortunately, on this light it reminds me of a Home Depot brass check valve. Although, I could probably get used to it.:thinking:

Yeah, I think they actually refer to the color at their website as "Check valve gold"
