I'm presuming that this is janice answering for carlos...

You should have it this week, then, clyde. Congratulations!

Mine seems to be breaking in pretty quickly. It still has a way to go and I still have some learning to do, for sure, but it's putting out some pretty impressive clouds already (not outstanding, but pretty decent for a new-ish atty @3.7v). I'm reserving judgement on it for a few weeks.

Have you tried one of the aw high drain 18650's on it? Ejoker has reported that it's made a difference on his.

Not yet. I may end up doing so, but I'm not convinced the AW batteries are as great as people seem to think they are. Check this out:

I'm not convinced that the difference in performance between AW's and Ultrafires of the same mAh is large enough to justify the price difference.

I did throw some slightly drained 3.0v cr123a's on it for a second, and WOW! I don't think I want to risk the atty at that voltage though.
 
biggest thing you should look at to get idea of that graph is the mah batteries used
to help you get a idea.

the aw are a bit better & have diff circuit & also more accurate on the mah rating.

so before judging too much compare the differences between the 2 and you will see a little more info most don't know about looking at.

just my opinion but so ya know I am also running ultrafires & trustfires.
Trustfire 2500mah i picked up & ultra fire 18500 2600mah
next set of 18650 will be AW Hoping they come out with a higher mah
 
also look at the amps used.
forgot to mention that. 2600 uf & aw are simular to a degree.
for that batch atleast.
can't believe i didn't say that before.

the aw drops & goes back up.
Hard to read some of it as its blurred

uf drains super fast at the end
while the aw drains slowly & gives a boost compared to uf.

batches & way its tested makes a difference.

feels sorry for anyone using the gtl that is horrid

just my bits of research thrown in..
also aw give better performance generally..
Ordering some next week if all goes well

Bummer! Delivery was expected today, I figured I'd be spending this evening experimenting with my new JB. But, for whatever the reason, it didn't come today. I guess that makes tomorrow all the more likely. :)


EDIT: Well, today is yesterday's tomorrow. Still no JB in my box. :( Maybe tomorrow.

Umm..if we go by the box actually ships the day after delivery to the post office like what's his name said, that would make it day three, wouldn't it? Friday would make four days.

Gee thanks Negative Nancy! :) However if the boxes were dropped off at the post office on sunday (the day i got the coveted email) they went out first thing monday...so moday could possibly be considered day 1, making today day 4. I'll know any second now...mail lady should be here any minute!! AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! i feel like a crackhead staring out the window at the mailbox. good thing the mail lady has a hole in her muffler so i can hear her coming a mile away
