Title: Free olight I3E ESO on July 12th.
Post by: Wessaen on July 10, 2019, 04:08:23 AM: Olight is giving out free a AAA flashlight on July 12th while supplies last just for logging in/making an account with them.

Last year I just paid shipping (Around $3) for a nice keychain light that usually goes for about $10-15.

Post by: cody6268 on July 12, 2019, 01:32:15 PM: Added it to my calendar as soon as you posted it. I also got the Olight email this morning. I bought it, and I'm waiting for it to ship. At first, I thought it was going to be another black one, but it's "Desert Tan" (looks more like bronze/gold to me).

Post by: WoodsDuck on July 12, 2019, 07:26:08 PM: Great little light for the cost of shipping. $5 in my case.

I agree it looks more bronze than tan in the photo.

ETA: Thanks for the thread, Wess. Would have missed this completely.

Post by: Roc on July 12, 2019, 07:27:26 PM: Thanks for the heads up. I’ve been wanting to try one of these.

Post by: clown on July 12, 2019, 11:58:14 PM: I got one last year when they did this promotion. Just ordered one for this year :tu: Shipping for me was $5. These are good little lights. Especially at that price.

Post by: Wessaen on July 13, 2019, 01:22:55 AM: Glad I was able to point this out for so many people!

Did anyone else have some major issues with their website this morning? Took about 4 tries to get the order to complete but I got the confirmation email so I think I'm in the clear.

Post by: clown on July 13, 2019, 01:36:56 AM: I just ordered mine a couple hours ago and had no trouble. I let my dad know about it and he just ordered one as well, so they must have some left. I got the email about this from Olight and was going to pass on it. But your post brought to front of mind again. You can always use another AAA :D

It took me a few tries to complete the transaction. Same with my coworker. I got an email later that day that mine will be here Wednesday, so I know mine went through. Thanks again for the heads up. Will be my first coyote brown light.

Post by: karlito on July 13, 2019, 04:56:03 PM: No issues.

Thanks for the heads up. Not that I needed another light though. :P

Thank you!

Post by: Sawl Goodman on July 14, 2019, 10:48:32 AM: Whether a thing's needed or not, sometimes I find it hard to resist a free offer when I'm curious about it. I got one while America was sleeping - and found out today that after taking shipping to my country into account, I paid $2 more than I would have somewhere else.
:facepalm:

Ah well, it's an unusual colour! :P

Mine was due today, but no luck. Last time I had something shipped UPS it never showed, so I’m not getting my hopes up.

Post by: cody6268 on July 18, 2019, 03:53:53 AM: This is weird. I know Olight is based in Georgia, yet this shows up in tracking. First time it's ever happened at the destination hub for my region.

Mine says the same thing that it’s pending acceptance. That was 3 days ago.

Post by: Roc on July 18, 2019, 11:27:20 PM: Still a no show for my light. Contacted UPS and they told me I had to contact the seller. Apparently at the sellers request. I emailed Olight and included my order number asking where’s my smurf?
Title: Re: Free olight I3E ESO on July 12th.
Post by: Sawl Goodman on July 19, 2019, 01:09:35 AM: Mine's been shipped. Tracking says it should arrive at the forwarding depot by the end of the day.

Post by: NJSailor on July 19, 2019, 04:21:22 AM: I should be receiving mine tomorrow, it's been handed over by UPS to the post office.

Post by: cody6268 on July 19, 2019, 04:28:58 AM: Mine showed up today. I like the color even more in person. Man, they must have cranked out a TON of these things. Mine is serial 15,650.

I got a reply from Olight. They said they sold tens of thousands of these and are backed up getting them mailed out. At least I received a quick reply.

I would have bought at least 4 :tu:
