The knock-off ones have truly crap reliability. Factor in shipping costs and convenience and I recommend spending the few extra dollars to get the real one with Samsung batteries. Action LED has great service and is highly recommended.
Lastly, the one I posted has the latest Cree XM-L2 emitter, it's not the regular MJ808. XM-L2 is state of the art right now.
