[PART 1] Official BLF GT Group Buy thread. Group buy officially closed! Lights shipping.

It will be tripod-mountable i believe? Thought i’d read something like that.

Yup.

Yep tripod hole is there

Cool! Due to the size it’ll be the first crew served flashlight in history; someone to carry the tripod and another to carry the light.

( ex-military will get it, maybe. I apologize for the way my mind works. I still can’t quite get over the massiveness of it.)

For those not wanting to lug a tripod and the light there’s always this idea: http://powerpictures.crystalgraphics.com/photos/view/cg1p77428059c/maxim_s_machine_gun_model_1910_30_on_a_wheeled

You could use one of these

Type, price and quality vary but just search Ebay and you can get one for about us$12 or less.

Cheers David

Beautiful prototype, it seems that this project is going really fast!

Thank you for the update :sunglasses:

I hope The Miller will post some beamshots when it gets dark

Ha I wish I had it
It is in China at Lumintop
And we just received an email from Neal saying:

I think there is a pic in the email but need to open it on the PC to see it, could be a very nice pic!

Indeed there are some nice beamshots in the email, very nice indeed. It also has the XHP35 HI LED now as well:

I am getting very excited :heart_eyes:

Holy flashlight!! :heart_eyes:

Can’t wait to show this thing off at BBQ’s :slight_smile:

I know it’ll be some time before it gets into our hands. I should start looking for batteries so I’m set on those. Is there a preferred battery people are thinking of using? Should I wait for protos to go out and see what the proto testers think?

Any help/suggestions greatly appreciated.

Even I’m curious, I think protected batteries are the way to go, right?
