ok so just took the plunge and ordered the torch when do you reacon i should get it?

Took them about a week from order to shipping, then about a week to arrive.

You’ll get it just as the clocks go forward

Mine’s just stopped working after 4 hours use. No reply from DX 2 days after reporting it.
🙁

sharkbait, it may sound a bit heath robinson, but take the whole thing apart, clean it thoroughly, check all the electrical connections, grease all the threads, and put it back together.

Mine stopped working after only a few minutes use. There was obviously a poor connection somewhere. I did all the above, and it’s been fine since. Though in fairness 2 days and still no response from them isn’t the greatest customer service!

fastindian, if it’s in stock, usually takes about a week to 10 days to arrive, based on my experience of 2 orders from DX so far.

ordered another on the 1/3/09, recieved shipping notice on the the 7/3/09, got the batteries (misc kit) yesterday 12/3/09… I imagine the torch will be with me in the next 7 days. Last one took about the same.

BTW the wait is well worth it, you won’t be sorry. 😀
