Teacher, I’m working with/on that design so at this point it is still in.
To everyone, if you want to have the gt made please drop this discussion.
There is nothing more to say, all important questions are answered and everything you need to know is said.
We will give an update when we have one.
Not surprized, but it makes no difference; ‘thijsco19’ was gracious enough to provide a simple, uncomplicated answer.
Thank you, I shall endeavor to move ahead always, hopefully you shall also…. as well as Forever Upward. :+1:
Ahead & Upward…. despite bumps in the road, a great combination.
Err… drop the conversation??
What’s going on here? I’m totally lost. There has been literally 90% less banter on here for the last 2 weeks, than anytime before.
I’m getting the impression something is going on certain members don’t want us to know about. If the conversation is to be “dropped” why even start a GT thread?
This is BS. All the drama is over, we want answers and updates and now we are being told to not discuss anything?? Bollocks. 100%.
Thank god. I just wanted to cut the crap before it started all over again.
This is exactly what I ment with ‘drop it’. There is nothing “going on”.
Obviously I was referring to all the drama. Its perfectly fine to talk about the GT. (might be better if I’ve said drop the drama)
All that need to be said from the team is said. There are no updates at this point afaik, all the questions are answered.
It looks like instead of machining the reflector they use a technical procedure called deep drawing. Once you have the form the production is be very cheap. My guess is that these reflectors are used in those cheap handheld plastic led “searchlights” where they sell high quantities.
So, if your “guess” is correct fritz15; do you think this type of reflector would be suitable for the “GT”?? Or would it just be a cheap compromise that sacrificed preformance?
Any thoughts or guesses at this point?
My guess there is that there is a reason most or basically all flashlights known to me use a reflector which is turned on a lathe. But I really don’t know very much about that so I’m probably the wrong one to ask.
Thank you, I understand; that makes sense to me.
I can’t imagine a reflector priced that cheap having much real value except for use in a crappy light.
But hey, I could be wrong; I’m no highly trained expert either.
