Armytek Predator Flashlight Pass-Around List/Discussion

I Ordered one today as well!

 

No. The o rings, rubber button and grease are spares. Which I think is a very nice touch.

 

lol I think Anethema should get 2 flashlights for free! We haven't even tried out the lights, and already got one. He's doing a very good job of promoting them so far.

 

lol

 

Yeah i mentioned i got the information from The TW forums when i ordered, so maybe that will help his cause.

 

Wow - that's awesome.

Haha I'm sure they appreciate it but one free flashlight is enough

Speaking of which, DHL came today. 3 lights inside so one for me and two for pass-around.

The pass around ones are the high-throw (smooth reflector) ones, in cool white. Mine is orange peel reflector, neutral white. All have the silver bezel.

Now since they don't come with batteries, and they run off of CR123A's or 18650's does anyone here actually have any of these? Not sure how people would really try them out without spending $20 locally on 2xCR123As. They are godawful expensive for some reason locally most places, but can be had on the internet for about a buck a piece.

Thoughts everyone ?

 

Your idea, you should hook up the pass around.

 

Now that's a tough one, this case is much different from flashlight nerd forums doing the same pass around. Mostly because the CR123 and 18650 is a common battery that some people already have.

Is it possible for you to maybe ask them to send a charger and battery to tag along with each light?

 

I will probably buy a fresh set of batteries online before the light comes so I can test it with full battery.

 

Yeah I might just end up buying some batteries from battery junction and having them shipped. It's only a buck a battery. Everyone will have one set, and if they want more than one recharge they will have to buy em.

That's mighty nice of you.

I'm hoping my AW's will come in soon. Sucks staring at a flashlight on my desk.

 

I'm about to closes the lists too. A good few never PM'd me who originally showed interest, but I'll wait until morning before closing the lists and ship the lights out tomorrow. At worst, Thursday!

I'll also probably reorganize the lists a bit west/east coast to try to reduce shipping costs for everyone. I will PM those first people the second people's address and so on. No one else will get anyone else's address.

I think the first people on the lists should get them within a week or so of me shipping. The batteries will probably beat the lights to the first people.

I will PM instructions, but if I do this battery thing, please only use one set of cells and leave the rest for the rest of the people on the list.

I'll keep everyone updated! Been playing with and programming mine all evening. This thing kicks ass haha.

 

Grab a couple CR123A's somewhere local to get you going with the light! Runs just as bright off of those from what I can tell.

 

I didn't get on the list, but I have a pair of 18650s and a charger that I bought from Dealextreme.com. I have not seen that size locally though.

 

Salmon it isn't too late. Just PM me before morning as laid out in the original post.

 

OK guys the PMing is closed.

I'll organize the lists this afternoon and ship tonight or tomorrow.

These things are shipping directly from China, WTF? Canada can't make anything either!

 

Haha nope. They say it's all American and Japanese parts but assembled in china. Ya Canada can't make anything either .
