I had ordered 3 and the total was just over $16. I receved 3 email confirmations (3 separate order numbers) each was for 1 flashlight shipped at $5.45. It looks like their ordering system automatically separated it into 3 orders and applied the coupon code..........................

Crossing my fingers.

Edit: Added info on LED modules
For those of you wanting to convert this to an LED light (to save on purchases of D cell batteries), I found a site with several options here.. Another highly rated LED mod for maglites is the EverLED. No, I am not affiliated with either of these companies.
Holy crap those EverLEDs are $40 :Q

Do you have runtime graphs for those LEDs? I'm interested, but I'm not sure what their runtimes are.

These LEDs are not like the normal LEDs people think of. They do not use less power. Therefore I'm curious about its runtime.

yep, I've been looking around. It'd be nice to see a runtime graph. candlelightforums doesn't seem to have any information either.

Diamond has a LS1 regulated LED for $30 on the same link too. I'd probably get that one if only I know how its times.

:Q indeed

I was considering looking into those for when I need replacements, but as soon as I saw the price that thought was ended.

The EverLED is one of the few FOCUSABLE LED modules for maglites. The Diamond modules are fixed focus (spot size) and defeat the purpose of having a mag lite with an adjustable beam head.

The $14.95 spot miser puts out less light than mini mag sized lights (check out the review at flashlightreviews or LED museum). The price for the everLED seems ridiculous, but it still appears to be the best choice.

Don't forget, many of these modules contain regulated power supplies as well as the LED, so it's a bit more the "just an LED."

If someone here buys one, maybe they can post an AT review?

According to Flashlightreviews.com the diamonds retain the focus feature of the mags.
