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:
:heart_eyes: :heart_eyes: :heart_eyes:
Wow! 
very impressive!
Impressive ! Congratulations to Lumintop，Neal and all BLF members for first working prototype !!
I am glad that I have suggested them as a manufacturer for this unique project !!
Impressive! Great job guys!
Holy flashlight!! :heart_eyes:
Can’t wait to show this thing off at BBQ’s
:sunglasses: Wowzers :+1:
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?
I doubt that it’ll draw huge amounts of current from each cell, so I’m fairly certain it won’t need to be anything special in the way of cells. You’ll want them to match of course. If I’m wrong someone please correct me.
You know to stay away from the Chinese cells that claim 15000mAH and sell for $2, right? They’re too good to be true for a reason.
edit: I doubt protected cells would hurt and probably be a very good idea, but do we know if there are length restrictions? I don’t.
I wouldn’t be at all surprised if there is a group buy on cells as there is/was for the Q8.
Yeah the led is driven at 2,5A
So I’d say trusty good old Panasonic protected 3400mAh would do just fine.
That reminds me, Need to get cells for that too.

I’m impressed with the GT progress
Wow, I would not even think we would see a working prototype this summer! It is incredible! And the beamshots look good, this light packs some throw!
