    The REI Member Dividend

    The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

    Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

    Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

          Comments about SureFire Saint Minimus LED Headlamp:

          When the power went out this morning, finally decided to write about this great little light. Comfortable and bright(when needed), but low is usually enough because of the great flood. My main use is under a vehicle or in a dark house. If you are looking for a light with throw--move on. Never worn for a long time, so weight is not an issue, but I don't think it is heavy. Would replace with same if ever a problem with this one.

          Item was backordered, but arrived ahead of schedule.

              Adjustable output conserves battery life, low output/low light is ideal for reading in camp. This is my second Saint (a spare),and like all other Surefire lighting tools is top quality equipment.

                    Comments about SureFire Saint Minimus LED Headlamp:

                    Sure 100 lumens is bright and the field of view encompasses a semi-circle of + 50' but I am most impressed with what is does on the absolute lowest setting. Just past the ON "click" (could it be 1 lux?) the available light is enough to do most tasks while stationary and still not broadcast your position. Looking straight ahead at the lamp/person on lowest setting, the user's silhouette is undistinguishable. For those who require a subdued profile, this is the one.

                      A friend fell down laughing when I told him how much I paid but here I am in my second year an I never had a light this long. I carry it in my pocket all the time. The sigle SF-123 lasts a long time and that cuts down on weight. I read the bad reviews and I can't speak to it. This light is more adjustable than any other I've had and the switch leaves little doubt when off or on. I sail ocean sail boats. I vest great trust in my lamps. They can mean the diff between life or death and one did save me one night when I was rescued and the light told the assist vessel where I was. This one is not waterproof but no issues thus far.

                      Comments about SureFire Saint Minimus LED Headlamp:

                      I have to say that I really really like this headlamp. It is amazingly bright at it's brightest and the adjustments to the beam are really easy. I really still want to like it, but I'm not sure I can justify paying this much again for the possibility of another lemon.

                      My headlamp didn't last longer than 6 months which, especially at this price, just doesn't cut it. It slowly stopped working, first by not going above medium brightness, then by intermittently not turning on, and finally never turning on (changed batteries multiple times). This progression happened over the course of a couple days.

                          I've purchased many Surefire products and they have excellent customer service and support.

                          I'm using this light at work and at home. The light is bright and clean ... no dark spots. It is so comfortable, I forget I'm wearing it! I can adjust the light and the angle easily, even when wearing gloves.

                          I have no complaints. None. One of the best lights I own.
