SureFire batteries - 15 bucks a dozen!

Nope- it's the new price on SF batteries if you buy direct from SF. Expect dealers everywhere to stop carrying them, since that is dealer cost. :)
 
This is most excellent. Kind of a dirty thing for SF to pull on their dealer network, but hey, I'm not gonna complain. :) I wasn't buying these things from dealers anyway. Wal-Mart has them for something like five bucks a pair.

With this new battery pricing, I'm gonna get a P61 lamp! Whoo Hooo! :D
 
:rolleyes: What else is new, screwed again. Good thing the SHOT show is this week.
 
Yeah, Spark- like they'll listen to the bitchin'. They've done it to dealers five years running- and always surprise cuts like that. :rolleyes: :barf: :grumpy:
 
My favorite is how they are now selling directly, without filling pre-existing backorders, at lower prices than retail. That's the best, it truly makes me glad to support their policies... it's the best.

Hey, I'm a Brit, what do I know...

I know that after years of touting the buy Surefire buy the best, and people who don't buy internet scraping to buy a G2 - as it's the best thing they can afford... at roughly $105

they will be scratching their heads as you can now source them at around $25 in the US. (Which coincidentally comes under the duty margin for imports)

I really don't know where they're going with their pricing.
I'm seeing stuff about QC problems. The model range is growing like topsy with the A2 and this hypothetical 5W LED - looks like problems to me.

This screwing of the dealer network - do they need to turn more money in house to fund their model development?

{FWIW, I have a 6P, G2, E2e/KL1(thanks Tim), and an E1, so I am an SF believer}
Turbo head, N2 and adaptor for the 6P... and I'll be out of lights for a while... though the Ultrastinger sounds nice <thwap>
