Anyone have experience with the ThruNite Saber 1A 2014 Edition yet?

I think it looks quite interesting and was thinking of buying one. Did you end up picking up one? If so, how did you find it?

I've got the boxed set with the Thrunite Saber 1A and the 1C body. The box is stamped "2014". I have taken them out and tested them to make sure they work and play with them a little, but haven't carried either one or used them much at all.... trying to decide whether to keep them, sell them or gift them.

Was there a specific question that I might be able to answer for you? I don't have the previous model Thrunite Saber 1A or 1C so I can't compare them. It seems like a nice set and certainly for the money! I've seen them as low as $25 to $29 for the boxed set on eBay. That's where I got this set.

That is correct, the Saber 1A in my 2014 Edition boxed set has a foam donut on the head at the positive contact.

It also has "2014" stamped directly on the outside of the head, right below "Saber 1A".

rje58, can you confirm the 2014 version uses a foam donut instead of a spring?

Thank you very much, rje58! I appreciate your willingness to answer questions about the light. I am content with my older version.

Anytime, my friend! Isn't that what flashaholics are for?
