My new 3x21C came today. Since Piercing the Darkness and others pointed out some quality issues, here is an Update from my newly received Flashlight:
Reflector/MCPCB Screws length fits now, with 1mm air for tightening.
Battery Tube got a new chamfering.
There is still solder flux on the MCPCB but my emitters are clean, for me this is not a problem.
Springs are single springs per Cell, but by eye they look thicker as shown in Piercing the Darkness Video. They are very firm and strong, I can’t push them down far by hand.
I will do a Spring bypass nevertheless.
I am very happy with the light at this price, the over all quality looks good to me.

Not sure why this was down voted.
Both improvements were much needed.
Especially the razer sharp corners in the tube.
Tomorrow I will take a photo from the springs, as well as thickness measurement.
