Shipping fee is AU$ 6.11 at the moment.
I’ve used an Olight EDC before, solid little torch. But at this price, might as well give this one a go. Quick Google search shows pretty decent reviews too.

That did not Wurkkos well for you…
Fine I’ll pay that one.
It's plus shipping for me which total to $21.62
Same…
Subtotal: AU$ 15.45
Shipping: AU$ 6.17
Total: AU$ 21.62
going through to purchase for me with free shipping (paypal checkout)
For me, the first paypal windows is $15.45 but then it goes back to the Wurkkos site with $6.17 shipping fee.
i have one so i'm not hitting th complete purchase button but charge $15.45's the amount in the paypal window
i guess it wouldn't surprise me if they'd nutted out some scheme to appear as though a charge is a total and allow a vendor to bill another amount, though the ombudsman'd have something to say about that and i'd be willing to bet you'd get a full refund and get to keep your torch
@0jay: The Paypal "Complete Purchase" button doesn't complete the purchase it only takes me back to a checkout page of on the Wurkkos site with shipping added and another button "Confirm Payment".
@lorikeet: i'd be hooking in wi the ombudsman if i'd purchased under those circs
you'd need screenshots and a desire to fck wi paypal (i've won an award against them before)
I find this torch too easy to turn on. As in if I have it in my pocket all of a sudden I feel a hot spot and I pull the torch out and it's on. Is there a trick to this without pulling the battery?
I don't have this particular one (!) but often 3 or 4 quick taps on the power butont will lock these torches, preventing them from being turned on. Same 3 or 4 taps to unlock.
Oh cool, I'll give this a go! Thanks.

Quarter of a turn of tail cap, quick manual lockout.
^ this is the way!
Shipping turned me off…
yeah, If the post said AU$ 21.62 shipped we would get it :)
Buy three, and you will get free shipping. They make great stocking stuffers.
Thanks OP, already have one of these or a similar model, and love it. Can't believe I ever fumbled around outside with my phone torch. I reckon I can justify a second one to sit in the bedside table drawer.
You can use the code WKZHCODE5 to save 5% (which is only $0.78 for one).
Theres also a coupon code WISMODS, if you order the magnetic caps to go with it, or the order is over $60 it works, for some reason even when it qualifies for free shipping if you add a coupon code it doesnt seem to work to allow free shipping
Just ordered the WK03 5000K 1200lm variant, plus an extra magnetic tail cap for $23.77 delivered, using the WKZHCODE5 or WISMODS discount code for a bit of extra savings (thank you to lorikeet and drspy00 for those), and thank you Marrio for posting this deal, it's great value for an 18650 light with decent quality 3000mAh battery included.
I generally prefer the warmer colours and the 5000K model has a much higher CRI with the Nichia 519A emitter, though the max output is lower at 1200lm.
Link to the magnetic tail cap for anyone interested — make sure you select the right variant, for the WK03. Note that getting the magnetic tail cap separately works out cheaper:

Here's a review of the WK03 5000K variant (the one reviewed is the gold model, but I think they should otherwise be the same in performance):

Where did you find WK03 5000K 1200lm variant so cheap? I can only see this one https://wurkkos.com/products/wurkkos-wk03-golden-nichia-519a…. Shipping makes it $29.66 (with the code).
The black WK03 listing that this deal links to originally offered the choice of either 6000K or 5000K emitters, but the 5000K variant has now sold out so it's no longer available unfortunately.
damn didn't think it would sell out so quickly, serves me right for waiting I guess
Paypal didn't work for free shipping. Thought I had another window before confirming my purchase but the order went through without free shipping.
Had to email them to cancel my order
Drops to around 500 Lumens after a minute. So it's a 500 Lumen torch, with a temporary bright mode.
Yep this is normal for high power flashlights, at turbo output the emitters get super hot so the flashlight has to drop down after a short while to maintain a reasonable temperature.
I literally said to myself just today, as I was opening my latest Sofirn purchase, ' that's it, no more torches'…
