oops.....so you're trying to tell us it's hard to it? except for an expert like you....

i want to go there also to collect my Christmas present from you can ah? i want one of those cute little keychain light wo.....

hmm...looks like now i'm very in love with this light than any surefire lights.....once buy this no more buying other lights d

Elektro Lumens EDC-MCE;







here's the spec;



what do you thinks guys? any comments on this?

yeah...i was considering this too previously but i still prefer elektrolumens's light.....

that's why i'm still holding back any purchase now.....we shall see how good is this maelstrom.....

Xeno Group Buy Update :
the first shipment parcel [ G5 & accessories ] is still with DHL in Shenzhen....picked up from manufacturer on Tuesday morning but still not moving since then.... DHL suxxx big time ! if i were to know this would happen, i rather save up on the shipping and sent everything together with the Cube next Monday....

my guess will be....

MCE - USD105
XPG - USD90

but hopefully both could be selling for less than USD70.... [ before apply discount coupon ]

can't wait to check out the Preons......

i'll go for the MCE Mealstrom this time.....

no issue.....yeah had a good chat too even for a short period! and good luck in your chess competition tomorrow remember to 'activate' the strobe mode when time is critical....

thanks to bro pseudoblue for his lesson on those dmm....


Xeno Shipment Progress [ 1st batch for G5 & Accessories ]


the parcel was picked on Tuesday and only registered it on Wednesday's evening and overall shipment progress is slow.....

This post has been edited by old newspaper: Nov 29 2009, 01:53 AM

the cube will be ready hopefully by today and shipment most likely by tomorrow....using UPS this time. the 1st batch will be arriving today as the parcel is currently with the courier guy

oops, i saw that pic few months back d...but didn't realized this is the maelstrom...

quite pricey tho and look bulky to me....

RookieDaddy,
nice beam shot and appreciate your beamshot !


Xeno Group Buy Update :

First parcel [ G5, G105 and G5's accessories ] arrived safely yesterday ! No custom tax involved ! Please allow me 1 day [ today ] to sort out all the items ya...and i'll start to PosLaju it out by tomorrow ya as i'm not feeling very well today... For those prefer to COD in Serdang/Seri Kembangan, please call me up to arrange it [ after 8pm ]. For those prefer me to PosLaju it out, please pm me your shipping address and details ya and remember to add RM5.70 for the Poslaju. [ please include the payment slip to avoid any confusion ]

I'll appreciate if all participants in this GB could top up additional RM8 each to cover the additional cost for the separate shipment arrangement. as i already absorb the bank charges for the TT payment previously for you guys

Xeno Cube :
there'll be a further delay on this as it's still in the production stage. I'd been told from manufacturer that this is expected to be ready by this weekend.... sorry for any inconvenience caused.

get a pelican case ...but quite expensive here

me the 3rd ranking in ......

welcome to the family here....most of the member here are truly pro flashaholic except me....

mind to share your lights collection with us?

dang.....i was the very first person who own the D-Mini VX few months back only.....now come out this....

the newer one looks like it has a bigger hotspot and spill, not sure whether it can throw better than the current version? SST-50 a thrower?

.....i think i would just request to buy the pill from Lumapower instead of the whole light ....let me talk to him first if he can give you guys a good deal or not

LUMAPOWER D-MINI VX ULTRA with SST-50 - the Ultimate Pocket Rocket !

err....i just received a group buy purchase pricing from Ricky, Lumapower

so who's interested to get this? we need a commitment minimum of 10 pcs order for the good deal as usual from my buddy, Ricky.....

the pricing he quoted me comes with the D-65v [ body extender for using 18650 ] + shipping

just a few note here for you guys :
- there's only limited unit up for sales at the moment as his supplier only supplied a small quantity of SST-50 LED
- RCP price is USD 119.50, pre-order price is USD 105 and my price is USD XX only, yes 2 digit only
- but don't expect 50% off the RCP price as according to Ricky, the SST-50 Led alone is almost half the RCP price....
- this D-Mini VX Ultra was planned 6 months back, so no worry on the myth of 1st batch production issue....
- we need to commit to him on this before 8th December.....after that, all of us here need to purchase it at USD 119.50

sorry guys, as promised to Ricky i can't openly published the 'special price' here or CPF.....so you guys have to PM me for the 'special' price

so what's your decision ? really want me to organize this group buy too [ again ] ?



This post has been edited by old newspaper: Dec 2 2009, 01:05 PM

can...it's compatible....not sure about the pricing yet as Ricky will update this on his website within this 2 days.....i guess it should be selling for less than USD20.....just my guess....

i haven't officially open the GB for this yet and seems till now there's already 4 participants has confirmed with me by now...

alright....Lumapower D-Mini VX Ultra Group Buy is officially open now....




some first hand information from Ricky...[ not even published in CPF yet ] :
- this D-Mini VX Ultra share the same body as the previous D-Mini VX
- same UI as D-Mini VX and Vantage - 3 modes [ 100%, 33% and 5% ]
- the D-Mini VX's teleforce [ which will be release soon ] WILL NOT be compatible with this new D-Mini VX Ultra....but there will be a new teleforce for this in near future [in planning stage now ]
- the quoted price on this is include the D-65v body tube [ support 18650 ] and with free registered shipping!
- dateline given is until 8th December, otherwise will be buying at slightly higher price....

just some extra note here for you guys :
- there's only limited unit up for sales at the moment as his supplier only supplied a small quantity of SST-50 LED
- RCP price is USD 119.50, pre-order price is USD 105 and my price is USD XX only, yes 2 digit only
- but don't expect 50% off the RCP price as according to Ricky, the SST-50 Led alone is almost half the RCP price....
- this D-Mini VX Ultra was planned 6 months back, so no worry on the myth of 1st batch production issue....

sorry guys, as promised to Ricky i can't openly published the 'special price' here or even in CPF.....so you guys have to PM me for the 'special' price
note :
for those purchased the Vantage previously, good news for you guys....there's a special price given for the Vantage's teleforce for more throw power

here's the comparison;


and if anyone intend to get any other Lumapower series of light, can do so also and there might be a special price for it if bundle together with this GB

maybe you can organize a GB for loan package too for us ? seriously all of us need it especially when we have damonlbs around, he's the real evil here

speaking of dead of light....my brand new [ never even used it before ] EagleTac T20C2 die premature.. after changing the reflector....send to my sifu, Dannie also can't revive it.....no choice but have to send it back to ET.....no more ET for me

yes sir...

at least i take a break for a while

all of us here are not rich.....just save up our hard earned $$ to buy it.....

+1

i would love to go with the 500W green laser ....but for the sake of my children safety, i'm not buying any laser....

lesson learned this time......i bought it because of the form factor and throw capability....but now even my miniature light [D-Mini VX & L-Mini ll and even my cheapo romisen RC-C6 ll ] can easily out throw it that's it why i never use it anymore.....

i'm now more into Maelstrom and the new SST-50 light, D-Mini VX Ultra

so far only 8 are confirmed.....so still got 2 more seat left.....if by tomorrow still can't fill up all 10 slot, i'll try to nego with Ricky to give us the same price.....

not yet send to them...still waiting for their email reply on my issue....definitely not the led issue...it's the driver circuit...

really appreciate if you can help me over this issue

i already promised you ma earlier that i will give you you the 47 tailcap rubber boot even if you can't help me on this

err....it seems MC10 looks like an alien among all their siblings.....the poor quality material, cheaper led used etc etc.....luckily you didn't pay for it

there's always a next group buy waiting for you in near future....

you should do so because it's good for your wallet....for saving $$$$

hey guys......looks like Bright Side V3 is approaching soon.....can we nominate someone to head up the V3? i nominate our Mr. President, pseudoblue !

this is just my suggestion on the new V3;

First post content :

1. List of all flashaholic here with their list of lights - so we know who to look for if there's any questions pertaining to that specific model [ not for show-off purpose ya ]
2. FAQ for some new comer reference, a link will do

Second post :

1. Gathering info - compilation on all previous and up coming gathering
2. Information / Announcement on all those new release light

Third Post :

1. Review section - lights review only by our members here

Forth post :

1. All the Group Buy Information - all previous GB and up coming GB - so it's easy for everyone to check and monitor it from here [ no need hassle to search the entire thread for the GB status/ update ]

any comments on this matter is most welcome. So the nominated TS should be preparing all these info by now so our V3 could be more properly organized
