Last unsold flashlight: a Bass Pro Shops XPS flashlight. Takes 3 AAAs, and uses (I believe) a luxeon 3 emitter. Plastic body and reflector and a rubber grip, but build very well considering the cheap materials. This is the same thing as the Brinkmann 3xAAA, just relabeled. Nothing is glued - although there isn't enough heat management for a high output flashlight, you could add a new emitter and a resistor for a great throw-around all-purpose light. $16 + shipping.

Sold: First, a black Liteflux LF5XT. I bought this from LEDCool, so the tint is handpicked to be as neutral as possible, and is the best I've seen yet. Since I bought this early, it uses an R2 bin, so it is both brighter and has a nicer tint than the current LF5XTs. The flashlight is in perfect condition, electronically and physically. Comes with everything that came with the flashlight, although some of the lubricant has been used. $60 + shipping.

Sold: Second, one Nitecore EX10. This is the XR-E edition, not GD+, and does not have a slotted piston. There's a 1cm by .3cm stretch of rubbed anodizing, only on the tops of the knurling, and not completely rubbed off - just a bit more irregular in color and shiny. Other than that, the physical condition is perfect, as is the electrical condition. Includes everything that came with the flashlight, as well as one Shan 650mAh RCR, which I can charge for you if you'd like :) . $48 + shipping.

Sold: Black Fenix L0D CE. This is the older version that says only Cree XR-E on the packaging, and 50 lumens max. Anodizing is worn on the tail rim, and also noticeably on the head rim. Between the ends there's only a speck or two of missing anodizing. No other bodily harm, and no electrical malfunctions. Includes everything that came with the flashlight. $30 + shipping.

For shipping reference, I live in Vienna, Virginia (US). Also, since I will charge you the actual cost of shipping, you will save a few dollars in shipping by ordering multiple flashlights. Please pm for paypal address. Thanks for looking :)

L0D CE and EX10 both sold and shipped.

The Liteflux is mint, and was my favorite - the only reason it's going is because I'm buying a LF3XT :)

ok, another price drop. LF5XT is $62 + shipping. Shipping should be pretty cheap - up to $3.

I wish you had gotten the natural color, I would have taken it off your hands ICTTL.

I'll think about it, they are great lights. I just ordered a couple Olight's, but the LF5xt was the first runner up.:rolleyes:

Good luck

Thanks for the post. A lot of people seem to like liteflux lights in natural. I prefer everything in either black or silver (bare or chrome).

The R2 LF5XTss are going to become scarce. LiteFlux has announced they are unable to get more R2s and are beginning to substitute the Q5 in the LF5xt. They have dropped the list price on the Q5s to $62, but IMO the R2 is probably going to be more desirable since the Q5's that LiteFlux has been using in the LF3XT are a bit on the cold side. This light is mint, and IMO, the seller is asking a fair price. I'd buy it, but I already have two of them.

Congratuations d1dd1! You are getting a great light!
This is definitely my favorite AA light. Anyone getting one of these now is making a great decision. I just got a LF3XT Q5, which is a great light, too, but I still love the LF5XT R2. I don't think there is another R2 which even comes close for the price. Any respectable flashaholic should have an R2 in his collection and this is the one to have.
