Anyone snag any decent Black Friday deals today?

Dr. Tweedbucket · Nov 27, 2015

I got a Fenix E05 for like $13 and an E15, the new one for $24.... basically 20% off. Got some good deals on batteries too. :rock:

Of course I didn't go out anywhere, just online.

Anyone else?

Butters4sure · Nov 27, 2015

I've been looking all day. I haven't seen anything worth talking about. 20 percent is nice, but thats not a deal of the year like we want!

I got a Jetbeam TCR20 for $126 and a Fenix CLR25 for $47.

Still debating the MH20 for 30% off from Illumn.

I'm also debating Armytek Partner A2 v2 XM-L2 directly from Armytek or Nitecore MT20A with discount from Illumn. Both of these are about same price after shipping/taxes so hard to decide... I like how the Armytek Partner A2 seems real sturdy, the modes/runtime is good and it seems like I'd get pretty decent flood based on pictures or videos I found. The Nitecore MT20A's mode selection sounds so natural to use, has good runtime, but I'm not sure if this is more of a throw light or flood (or a good balance of both).

Decisions decisions...

Was debating between Fenix E05 vs Olight i3s also, but don't know if I really care to get an AAA light. Where did you get the Fenix E05 for $13?

Defiant 3C 850 lumen flashlight from Home Depot for $10.
A few 60 packs (30 AA, 30 AAA) Rayovac batteries for $10 each.
A 5 Amp 18 Volt Milwaukee lithium ion tool battery and charger for $100. (Runs my 700 lumen Milwaukee lantern with USB charger).

There were no lines at Home Depot.

I also bought the defiant 3c 850 luman, what other batteries would fit? It's definitely not 850 Lumans but it's not bad.

That was the Fenix store. They will probably have a Cyber Monday with similar deals.

*edit* It was Battery Junction ... and almost $14, sorry. It's a great EDC light though, I have one already.

From what I saw, Amazon had exactly zero deals on flashlights. :broke:

Poppy · Nov 28, 2015

I saw that Defiant 3C 850 lumen flashlight from Home Depot for $10 and almost picked it up, but then I thought... I have smaller and better, what would I do with it? Gift it? nah... 2 hour run time.

What is the beam like? I imagine floody with a large hot spot?

How many went to home depot looking for that $24 twin pack of mini mag pro's? (Bykfixer raises hand)

Mine had none.
But I got a twin pack of Defiant penlights for $4.88 that normally go for nearly $6 each. Not a mini mag was left in the joint.

The wife braved the Wal Mart crowd and scored me a mag combo of aa pro and a solitaire for $23.
Black of course being black friday and all.

Got several MiniMags, the new 272 lumen ones, from Home Depot. $13 each.

They did not have the package they advertised, one 2xAA Minimag and that 2xAAA contraption with 111 lumens all in one package. So after talking to the managers, they gave me a discount for the existing Minimags. Actually ended up with a better deal than the Black Friday ad. Since I don't have much attachment to the AAAs format.

Thanks! Hard to pass up for that price! ;-)

No "real" deals on lights here..

JohnnyBravo · Nov 28, 2015

YES! I was on Orbtronic's e-newsletter and received a code for 30% off. So I bought 4 of their 3500mAH high-drain IMR flat tops. They are now my favorite brand of rechargeable cells, e.g., 18650, 14500, and 16340s. Sal over there is super! ;-)

cloggy · Nov 28, 2015

LuminTop L1C from HKEquipment - 65% off and BLF code works ( published so available- HKE80 ) and gives a further 8% off = £18.39.
Very good savings on Black Friday deals on slightly unfashionable lights but includes Fenix, Xtar, Skilhunt.

In Australian retail (Masters), the 2xAA MiniMag is $35, and it's only an older generation 81 lumen model. Not much incentive to purchase from (non-online) stores in Aus!
