Hi there, just received an Archon w40vr from Aliexpress. $160. This appears to be a great light. I'll be in Indonesia next month to test it out.

$160? You got a link to that price?Hi there, just received an Archon w40vr from Aliexpress. $160. This appears to be a great light. I'll be in Indonesia next month to test it out.
Here is one of the messages during my purchase. I dealt with Olivia via email mostly and paid via Paypal. I also asked them to throw in an extra battery, which they did (for another $12). The light is not that big. Look at the dimensions in the product specs. I received it quickly, it appears to work well (at least in the bathtub).

You can get some fatter loc-line, should be able to hold it no problem.
True, I'm more concerned with how to attach it to the locline. This is what I have now.
If there is something like this for those wider lights perfect but I haven't had any success finding such a mount or another way to mount them to loclines. This might be an alternative but I really don't think they would accommodate the w40vr's width:
They do make a mount for about 30-40 bucks I think. Kinda pricey. I saw it on alibaba but it takes a bit to find it.
Good to see that the light flickering seems to be fixed. I was under the impression that it was present at 24, 30, and 60 fps.
