Mine arrived in very poor condition, both lenses were floating and not secured properly. The 2x 18650's used in mine were generic Chinese cells and had a real capacity of 2000mAh not 2200mAh. On the stock generic cells the runtime on full was respectable at a few hours. I modded mine and upgraded to 2x Sanyo NCR18650GA's which had a very noticeable effect on the runtime. Don't try to do this unless you are comfortable with soldering as it's not a simple or particularly easy job, you will need to spot weld your new cells together and swap over the battery protection and then squeeze everything back into the aluminium body. I did not notice much if any increase in output from changing the wires to a larger AWG or the lower resistance cells, I would assume this is because the stock wires are sufficient and the light is regulated. I did not do any current measurements but going by the output in comparison to another genuine Cree torch I would say it is around 1000 lumens MAX. The heat sinking to the main aluminium body is near enough non existent but the small contact area it does have did not have any thermal compound, I am extremely surprised it runs as well as it does. Overall it's a nice looking light that works well but the actual spec is WAY off, my estimate would be 1000 lumen 5500K 75CRI with a 4000mAh battery which in comparison to the leading brands of bike lights makes this still well worth the money!

Seem decent for the money, they also use silicone wire which is much better than the cheaper ones I have seen.

I had lots of problems with this, it seems much more inaccurate than a regular ruler and the solar part of it is useless under led light (which is not a surprise).

This printer is awful. It came with absolutely no instructions what so ever and the bed is totally warped which makes it useless. If you use glass over the top you will have uneven heating and possibly bend or break the glass. The extruder motor is also faulty. The printer was also supplied with some 3d printed parts which I would not expect from a printer kit of this value. The only good thing about is all the revised parts from all of the other versions of it like the X5S etc.

Good stuff. I have not tested it's resistance to heat or flames but it seems just like all the other insulation tapes I have used. It also has a nice pattern embossed into it which makes it look a bit more expensive than regular insulation tapes (which it is).

This alarm is quite good quality and functions well. The range of the remote is very good, the LED is quite bright and the battery life is good.

I have purchased quite a few of these and they have always been of reasonable quality. The price has increased over the last few months though.

These will not accept a heavy AWG wire. They perform OK and are pretty sturdy but if you want to use them at high current due to their "copper" material then you should probably look for something else as they simply will not accept more than 12AWG.

The quality of these vary massively. I have had 2 batches of these and there is a huge difference in quality. The first batch was really good quality and fitted very nicely but the second batch was really bad. It's the chance you take I guess when buying from China.

This stuff is quite good, I have not done any resistance tests but there is a noticeable quality difference when comparing this against another 8AWG silicone wire. I can't totally recommend this wire without doing a resistance test but I will say that going by the quality it will most likely be good stuff.

These are a very very tight fit, I had to warm mine up to make them fit but after that they fitted perfectly.
