Looking to buy some Fenix Flashlights but it's hard to find a good deal.

Know any places with good prices?

I think we have an inhouse dealer of high quality flashlight. Someone will chime in and finish my thought.

Also dealxtreme has quite a few good ones, may be knock offs but I remember people here and else where giving them high praises.
yes we do.....here is his thread:

I bought a couple from him.....good prices, fast shipping!
But taking a look at his website, looks like he is no longer selling Fenix flashlights.

Probably best to message him, maybe he has some leftover stock he is getting rid of.

There's a Canadian distributor. I'll have to dig it up. I used to distribute as well so I have lots of stock, albeit older digital ones.

What were you looking for? I do have a flashlight fetish and could probably recommend comparable DealExtreme ones. I've got over 40 flashlights, including two HIDs.

I used to get mine here: http://www.j2ledflashlight.com/

But the last one I got from DX was fine, so I'm sticking with them now since they're so much cheaper.

Thanks! Just PM'd him.

Are they really knock offs? I thought it was the real deal?
I searched and the prices seem to be about the same range as the real ones.

I'm looking for the E01 and LD20 and maybe the white diffuser and head lamp addons.

Does anyone know if the ones on Deal Extreme are fake?

I bought an L2DCE from J2LED before, and the L2DCE Q5 I got from DX is just as good, which is a great deal since they're much much cheaper.

I bought the E01 & LD20 from j2ledflashlights.com
Plus the red & white diffusers.
Seems like a one man shop but seems like he's a nice guy to deal with.

When you do the conversion from US -> CAN, it's about the same price as DealExtreme. Plus his accessories are cheaper than any other place I have checked & DealExtreme didn't have those.

Plus Free Shipping & No Taxes & faster shipment made it a better choice than DealExtreme.

If the CAN $$ was more on par, I would have definitely gone with DX.

4Sevens.com (http://www.4sevens.com) has the best prices I've seen. I get most of my lights there.

You can get an additional 8% off at 4Sevens by signing up at CandlePowerForums (http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb/) and using the member discount 'CPF8'.

The E01 (black) and diffuser are cheaper to get from DealExtreme. Fenix lights have a lifetime warranty when purchased from 4Sevens.

Thanks but I already made the purchase.
I couldn't find the diffuser on the DX site though.

E01 is $15 US from DX and that's about $17 CAN.
J2LED didn't have it on his site but with the LD20, he gave it to me for $15 CAN

I didn't know about 4Sevens discount coupon but ordering from the US means possible customs charges/taxes. So I feel better ordering from a Canadian source.

The black E01 is $11.82USD from DX.

You're right. The diffuser has indeed disappeared from DX. It was $3.37 when I got mine from there.

Wait, LD20 for $15?!

Isn't that the new L2DCE Q5 replacement? It's $60USD at DX...

LOL I was afraid someone would misread that.

No it's the E01 I got for $15 with the LD20 :)

The E01 is a neat little light. Fenix quality surpasses "Ultrafire" type lights DX sells. I carry a L0D as an EDC. Have a bunch of those with "wood" gift boxes.

Anyway, in terms of quality/value, I find the Romisen "series" best. In my humble opinion, the Romisen RC-C3 is best. The ONLY caveat is the twisty instead of tail clicky. Tried almost all the 1xCR123 tail clickies at DX and they aren't very good.
