Still waiting for my solarstorm from Lightmalls. It's been almost a month.
Deal extreme has been significantly quicker for most of my purchases.

if units from China comes with a battery, they have to use sea instead of air now. Takes a lot longer for delivery.

Did you get a tracking number? If so can give you the site to track your shipment, I had to email them to get it.

My order took about 10 days.

Something is messed up, email [email protected] and ask what is happening with your order. (Sunny is who replied to my tracking number question.)

I have some gemini olympia headlights and a bell super helmet. Anyone know if there are any adapters that will fit my lights to a gopro mount? The bell super has an integrated gopro mount with their helmets. I prefer to keep the lights low on my helmet

I would like to see more of your hacked reflector mount. What type of reflector?

Try typing your tracking number in the Canada Post website. Worked for me

Once my package arrived in Canada, I did the same thing.

Mine showed up today, took three weeks plus a day. Oh, and $27.50 in duties/taxes/fees. I was under the impression when I ordered that I needed to do express in order for the batteries to ship with it. Big mistake… Slow-boat via DHL = pay for the privilege of waiting.

I just went back and checked Lightmalls to see if I read it wrong, and they've updated their shipping options, and made it very clear what you need to select. There's now an option for regular post via airmail that ships with the batteries. Don't do what I did!

Moral of the story, fuck DHL

Crap…guess I am going to have to pay as well. When I ordered they said I had to choose one method over another because of the batteries…sigh. Still cheaper than buying lights just about anywhere else. Anyway still waiting for mine, let's hope they get here soon!

I used the updated shipping method, but still ground. Didn't pony up for air. Took about 5 days for them to process and now shipped with tracking. Good email updates so far - 1. Order Processing; 2. Order Processed; 3. Order Shipped.

Now we wait and see…

I'm going the self-contained light route… Exposure Diablo MK6…1300 lumens, 110grams (with battery)… beauty part is it doubles as a great flashlight.
