Lumapower Vantage Group Buy Update :

There's still 2 more seat left to complete this deal otherwise all this 8 buyer would be have to purchase it at slightly higher price sad.gif . Common guys, just 2 more ! or as alternative, would any 2 of the current confirmed buyer purchase 2 unit ? tongue.gif

Remember the dateline given is before 25th Oct ya...i hope we can seal off this deal by today or latest tomorrow. Only then we could arrange the payment part which i expected to be done within 21st till 23th Oct. If everything went off smoothly, 24th will be the confirmation of order with full payment to Lumapower.

Payment details will be forwarded to buyer via pm by tomorrow. Preferred payment via paypal as i'm gonna make the payment to Lumapower using paypal too. If no paypal, payment can be done via local bank in and please take note the exchange rate is 3.5, as i need to convert this into paypal fund eventually.

The price mentioned in pm is final as this was quoted directly from Lumapower. It only include the delivery of items from Hong Kong to Malaysia [my home ] via registered air mail with tracking no. From my home to your place is on your own cost [ e.g PosLaju ] as this is cost to cost basis, no mark up here and there. If , if the items was held up at custom, then the taxes will be equally shared out. [ mostly likely 10% of the declared value - but i'll declare it at a much much lower value anyway tongue.gif ]I'll try my best to avoid this.

Cheers icon_rolleyes.gif

note : sorry guys, i don't intend to make this thread as the sales thread. this is purely on voluntary basis to organize/facilitate this group buy to share the good deal with you guys here. thanks for your understanding

I have both the E2DL and LX2.   E2DL has been measured hitting 200 lm OTF, typical SF lumens.  I have not read anything about the LX2 registering greater than 200 lm but safe to say it is likely higher than 200 lm OTF.   Visually, The LX2 is visibility brighter than the E2DL, it is noticeable but not a day and night difference.

it's compulsory for you to join us this Sat's gathering ! tongue.gif i want to test this LX2 out oooooOOO drool.gif bro, where did you get from???

btw, Ricky from Lumapower just posted this Vantage's runtime chart;

3. Chieftat - Q3-5A Warm White [ limited edition -Silver HA-lll ] - paid via maybank

9. pseudoblue - XR-E R2 WD [ limited edition -Silver HA-lll ] - paid via paypal
10. makuyo - Q3-5A Warm White [ limited edition -Silver HA-lll ] - paid via maybank

i'd received the reply from Ricky, Lumapower earlier this evening. he can give us the same price [ the lowest price ] even with min 9 pcs. looks like his offer no longer needed as we have 11pcs already ! tongue.gif sorry this deal is sealed off as of now. now is the payment part which need to be taken care....

just one more consent which i want to make it clear openly to all participant; custom tax [ if applicable ] ;

please note that this parcel MIGHT be taxable if it can't pass thru the KLIA custom due to the quantity involved. total of 10% of the declared value will be imposed. i'll request Ricky to separate this shipment into two and will also declare the parcel at lower value to minimize the taxes if applicable. if let say only one shipment is taxable and the other parcel successfully pass thru, the total tax imposed value will be equally shared among this 11 participant. i'll try my best to avoid this biggrin.gif

i'll pm each individually on the payment. payment grace period will be from now till 23th Oct. once the payment completed 100%, i'll officially placed the order with Lumapower on 24th Oct morning and hopefully the first parcel will be ship out on 25th Oct. thank you for your understanding and support on this group buy icon_rolleyes.gif

note : please pm me your details [ name and contact number ] which i forgot to request in my payment pm... sweat.gif for those need to use Poslaju service, i'll arrange it later but the cost need to bear by individually ya....i'll check out the Poslaju rate tomorrow...

Note : If payment made via paypal, please sent it as gift or payment owned to avoid the paypal fee.

I'm very impress with the Krytox grease, the best among all I've used. My lights' twisting actions feels very very smooth. It's truly a wonderful product!!!

The Scuba Grease with PTFE is not bad either, and the "locking" property makes me strongly believe it can really waterproof any equipment with o-rings and such, this grease should be safe to use with silicone o-rings as it does not contains any silicone nor paraffin.

hahaha... Ultimate Grease Man... that sounds like a super villain from Marvel comics  sweat.gif  hmm.gif
hello Chieftat, I bought Krytox from Tekno_Cowboy from cpfmp, this is the straight grease, not 50/50 mix. The Scuba Grease is from a diving equipment shop at 1Utama old wing, near Popular Bookstore... while the gear grease from rc shops.
I would suggest to skip the gear grease as it doesn't really perform well, I think if mix with some lube oil it will work better.  doh.gif 
Fyi, the same shop that sell the Scuba Grease also carry a 100% pure silicone grease (AquaSeal).  smile.gif

make sure you come for the gathering this Saturday ya....no need to bring any flashlight, just bring your whole bunch of grease here ya Dr. Grease rclxs0.gif

QUOTE(strinq @ Oct 22 2009, 11:12 PM)
Just went for a night run just now, more like evening - night run.
Used the Eagletac T20C2 with the diffuser and on medium mode. Just enough to see where I'm going cuz when running you need the light to be pretty bright cuz u don't want to stumble over anything. When walking the medium mode is more than sufficient.
But the diffuser does lower output quite significantly.
On high its really nice.
