Lol, from where I come from, a single LED is about 120 USD and the battery is another 40.
Got 4 of them when I saw this post, seems they are sold out already

I bought this a few months ago, when it was $56 or something and I can tell you it has a very strong green cast, next to say a 500 LED light from Fancier. But even with a naked eye you can notice it.
March 29th, 2012 at 9:50 am
It’s now over $60… Is it still worth it?

Just contacted LinkDelight as it’s been a full month since ordering and no sign of light. (Rods arrived a week back) It seems they’re having issues with their kit being stopped at customs for copyright infringement.
(I’m UK based, no confirmation from UK customs that they have my light)
Not just impoverished film-makers following your posts here.

@dd_poco
I just emailed them today as well. same story with my order. i have never received it. i ordered 3. they keep telling me to just wait and they will send me a refund if the package doesnt clear customs.
id MUCH rather have the lights
April 30th, 2012 at 10:07 am
@antonio pantoja
Where are you based? Wondering if they didn’t leave Hong Kong at all if it’s a counterfeiting issue?
TBH who are the original manufacturers of these lights anyway? They’re like a copy of a copy of a copy.
April 30th, 2012 at 12:23 pm
I live in Louisville, KY in the United States.
May 4th, 2012 at 5:49 am
UPDATE: I never received the lights. They are giving me a refund plus $5 today.
I would MUCH rather have the lights. I’m sad
May 4th, 2012 at 1:21 pm
Yep. Wonder if they knew they were about to be hit with a counterfeiting notice, hence the mad price drop.
May 7th, 2012 at 11:12 pm
Probably because of the counterfeit Sony NP-F970
May 23rd, 2012 at 5:37 pm
I wonder if any of us received the lights, because same story happened with me… never received them, then they offered to resend of refund, of course I wanted them to resend. Oh, and by the way, not only the lights didn’t arrive, but a camera grip too. So even if there’s a counterfeiting issue with the lights, the grip should have arrived by now… they were a separate order (at least I ordered them separately, but maybe they put the 2 items in one package, who knows). So now I’m waiting for this second package, hopefully it arrives next week.
June 12th, 2012 at 6:03 am
Yeah, so I was offered a refund, because it did not arrive… too bad, I wanted the light and the grip instead.
June 19th, 2012 at 8:55 am
wtf same deal here
they have sent a replacement and that hasnt arrived either
im starting to think the whole thing is a scam
very dissappointed
2 months later & no lights
something tells me they didnt intend to sell these at such a low price & are pretending they haven’t arrived when they havent sent them at all :/
June 22nd, 2012 at 11:54 pm
Hi eroded, so we’re in the same boots. By the way, did you receive the refund? I have not (well, not yet anyway), so now I’m kinda angry. Very bad experience with this seller, sorry to say, but that’s the truth.
June 25th, 2012 at 9:54 am
Got no light, but a refund. My guess: the price was a mistake, they never sent anything and tried avoid negative votes by claiming they’ve sent and resent it until everybody agrees on a refund. Not the best experience, but one can do very much worse…
