Fenix tactical site down/gone ?

It seems www.fenixtactical.com (the Canadian supplier of fenix lights) is down. Anyone know whats going on?

Works fine, but they're not the only supplier in town

You know another Fenix supplier in Canada?

Ya site is up now, Fenix said it was just temporarily down.

There was an attack on Go Daddy DNS today. It is all over the tech sites. Maybe they used that. Times line up.

Just google "Fenix flashlight" using "Find pages in Canada" and you'll find about a dozen dealers including bestbuy.ca and futureshop.ca. The latter two only have them online but shipping is free for most orders and if you need to return a flashlight (e.g., off-center LED) you can take it to any of their retail stores.

I found a few dealers, would not say there are a dozen. Whats great thought is bestbuy as you said has fenix lights. Too bad they don't have the TK70! Would be awesome.

You can find Fenix lights at hidcanada.com :thumbsup:

Given what happened yesterday, I assumed the same thing. I just did a Whois search:

Domain Name: FENIXTACTICAL.COM

They are registered with GoDaddy. And they are up and running again.
