Alright, this is probably the last one of these particular lights.

I ordered an Ultrafire Wf-501b 500 lumen reverse clicky, single mode, XM-L2 cool white light. What actually arrived is a three mode XM-L...has strobe and SOS modes also (triple click to activate), but at least the blinky modes are not in the way of normal use. Giveaway comes with a SoShine 3400mAh cell, and a NiteIze adjustable holster if you request it (winner can do that in the same PM with shipping info).

These lights are surprising good value, in my opinion. They are simple, very easy to operate, very easy to disassemble (I cleaned and lubed the threads already), and reasonably durable. (The one I use frequently at work has been dropped several times onto concrete and metal floors, and still works fine.) I just got done with my basic waterproofing test (simply submerged in a bowl of water, cycled through modes, and left for several minutes to soak), and it kept the water out just fine. Every WF-501b I have owned has had an imperfect reflector, but this one is decidedly better than average. This light does not come with any guarantee, from me or anyone else, but I have tested it out, and everything is working properly.

Your post must include "I'm in for the Ultrafire WF-501b". I'm making this available to anyone, international entries welcome! I will end the giveaway and draw names when I have four entries, so if you want in, be quick.

Good luck!

(If anyone who has won one of these lights in the past would like to share their thoughts on it, that would be appreciated also.)
 
chuckhov, your name came up! Please PM me with a name and shipping address at your convenience. Also let me know if you want the holster.
 
I'm in for the Ultrafire WF-501b

I bought 3 of these over a 2 month period when I was just beginning to get bit by the Flashaholic bug. For less than $20 I had a flashlight, gun mount and pressure switch. The light worked, but longevity, waterproofing and dependability led me to upgrade after a fairly short time. About three weeks ago, I found one of my 501b's, dropped an 18650 into it and it worked fine. My son now has a new light to try out.
 
Thanks Doc!

A Great Thing you're doing here!

I have long heard about the 501b but have never seen one. - I have heard that it's just about the 'Bang for the Buck' King.

At least for me (thanks to you) it will be For Sure! :twothumbs

:thanks:

Next up: Fenix TK09.

The light is like new (bought 29-9-2014) but barely used.

The light has 3 modes: High: 450 lumens, Medium: 130 lumens, Low: 15 lumens. Max. intensity: 13225 candela.
Always comes on in high!
Can take CR123's and 18650's.

No battery included though! (Need it myself :P Sorry!)

To participate post a comment saying ''I'll take the TK09" AND you have to include a reason why you want the light or where you are going to use it for. I will not pick someone based on what they say though. (Saying you just want it as a shelf queen is a valid reason!)

Will ship internationally.

Giveaway will end Thursday 02-04-2015 21:00 CentralEuropeanTime (CET).

That is awesome. So great of you to give that up.

As much as I want it because it's a light from a company I love, it'll be much better off with somebody who needs a light in general right now.

I feel so bad not having donated yet like I planned. My candidature this year isn't going as hoped, but one day I'll be able to. Just the existence of this thread is one of those nice little things that makes the world seem a bit nicer.
 
I'll take the TK09

My primary purpose would be to stash in the family room in case of power outage. The 135 on medium bounced off the stipple ceiling will nicely illuminate the fairly large room.
