To Massdrop,
Why do the overseas shipping cost more than doubled from the previous Maratac CR123 copper? I paid US$6.25 for shipping to Singapore for the copper, but this stainless steel will set me back US$13 for shipping? What gives? The weight of both lights are not much different, with both around 3oz.
AkhyarHey @Akhyar -- It's possible that we've changed carriers since you bought that copper version, but I've asked our team to look into this. Thanks for letting us know, we'll take a look.

JonasHeinemanI just notice that the much heavier Astrolux SS, at 17 oz in weight has cheaper shipping fees to Singapore then this light which only weigh about 3 oz.

AkhyarI'm not impressed with that either. I can't believe how much postage is for this.
AkhyarHey @Akhyar and @Tinowrx -- The reason for this is likely do to the fact that one includes a battery but the other does not, which changes the Hazard Class of shipping and dramatically affects carrier rates.

JonasHeinemanI would understand that if this light comes with the battery, but on the description page, it says only comes with a spare O-ring. My copper Maratac CR123 which I bought from Oct 2015 drop only came with a spare O ring inside the plastic box. So, does this steel CR123 comes with the battery or not?
