I've got one that's a couple of winters old, well made, powerful and I've never flattened the battery.

All our club lights are his, all our families are his.

Great to buy from, good quality product that he stands by (even if there is no posh warranty card), and at great prices.
Do it.

Buy all my batteries from him and also the noted Fluxient 3x U2 which is quite big but its the brightest light I've ever seen
Highly recommended

Haven't bought anything from him recently but yep, always been very happy in the past. He's obviously an importer/reseller rather than a maker but I've never seen him sell anything that isn't basically sound

Bought a light off him 3 years ago . Had a problem with the charger initially , but he swapped it straight away & I haven't had a problem since.
I'd use him again without hesitation

Excellent fella, good products, good prices, knows his stuff, great aftercare.

Yep, when I bought mine he had several at different capacities, and as others have said, if you're not sure from the descriptions posted, he's very quick and helpful responding to messages. "A++++++ Highly recommended seller" as they say on eBay.

I bought one of the £20 jobbies that he does from time to time last year and it is still really good!

I have a set of ay-ups that I use on my head, and it is easily an equal to them.
