Well it looks like I won’t be getting mine for a while, the retards at Ebay global shipping program thought it was a prohibited item and has been holding it since the 29th…
Apparently Canadians are so scary with flashlights it has to be prohibited…
October 3, 2016 at 1:54 pm #576569@jzmtl ebay is messing up lately. How is that prohibited item. Doesn’t make sense does it come with battery or bare tool

Just bare tool.

Not it was shipped via Ebay’s relay shipper, seller ships to them, now they have it and hasn’t even shipped it yet.

I guess that is one way to prevent fraud, very interesting, i didn’t know they did this relay shipping business.

That sucks I don’t see what the big deal is. Your right flashlights are not dangerous

Oh I never heard about that before. stopped using eBay for the past 3years.
looks like they changed quite a bit."If you're going to do something, do it right the first time"

ProMy new GLI18V-420 arrived today. Nice little light. Way, way brighter than the my old CFL180 and brighter than most of my traditional flashlights. Definitely worth what I paid for it.

take some “night” pictures how it compares to the old CFL180 or maybe FL12 if you have one.It did come with the pouch. Not sure if I’ll use since it won’t hold the light and a battery but it’s well made. I don’t have any Bosch 12v tools but I’ll compare to the old CFL180 sometime soon.

Congratulations, nice to hear about being well built, lol forward to seeing some pictures of it.

Nice it came with a pouch, guess so that is for storing in an L-Boxx and not getting the lens scratched.

That makes sense. The lense seems pretty heavy duty but I can imagine scratches.

The actual lense is protected by an plastic piece to change the light beam.
And yes the pouch is only there for storage."If you're going to do something, do it right the first time"

October 4, 2016 at 9:46 pm #577161Although I have to say I’m a bit disappointed by it’s only 420 lumens, looking at that monster heat sink it should be twice that.

yeah you are right and it only has 3 LED’s. The FL12 has 10 and doesnt have any heat sinks.
Whats weird to me, the german model has less lumen. its only at 320 or 350

They probably upgraded to newer gen LED for NA release.
I haven’t taken any FL12 apart, but I think the aluminum bezel ring is the heatsink.

that would make sense if they did that.
My FL12 shut of many times when I was working in my attic during summer days.
It would be nice to see the inside of an FL12."If you're going to do something, do it right the first time"

Palm Springs, CAOctober 4, 2016 at 10:52 pm #577196Huh didn’t realize that it would do that. Didnt think they really got that hot. But I guess compared to the same output from an incandescent it’s cold.
