Q8, PMS SEND TO THOSE WITH ISSUES BLF soda can light

David there will always be bumps on the road to a BLF special light.

:slight_smile:

And the driver get more complex (GT), there are other manufacturers.
And if it’s too smooth it’s boring :cowboy_hat_face:

Mine are in ILLinois… any day now!

I set it for the time based step down, 3 minutes was what I intended to set it as. If I were to do it based upon temp what is a good temp to do so? Also how many lumens does the light step down to.

Thanks

Well, 3 mins is the default. If yours is stock, 3 mins works pretty well. For temperature setting, all depends what you want it at. An externally measured temp of about 50-60C works well, but even 50C is feel'n quite warm, all depends.

:crown: :+1:

Although tracking from China is a muddy, muddled mystery to me, I did figure out my Q8 is in New York City! Now it just has to travel to Florida with the snowbirds! :wink:

Has anyone noticed or mentioned the behavior where if the light is switched off when ramped below 50% the switch only flashes once and quick method of disabling switch leds doesn’t work? Sorry if I missed it if mentioned already.

Yeah… it is almost funny. My last two finally got out of customs the other day in California & have been on two completely different routes to final destination (me in AL). One has hit every small town possible it seems since it left Arizona…. :smiley: Comical to watch for sure…… :wink:

Sometimes I look at those small towns that Fedex drives through on google maps, and imagine what life is like for the people there. Especially if it has a unique name, or if I vaguely remember hearing the name somewhere.

You guys are lucky, look what our great postal service calls detailed tracking :person_facepalming:

Cheers David
Edit …. shipped 29 sept

Are they raised flat tops? If not, you need to check that all 4 are getting contact.

If they are the red ones, then it should be raised flat tops which is perfectly acceptable.

Got mine today, and it blinks out v.1.1 Shouldn’t it be v.1.2?

I had to look twice before I realised that it is no joke, LOL. The ‘we’ve got it’ and the ‘it’s coming today’ are are at least real things happening, but the ‘it’s on its way’ is the ‘we’re not going to tell you what is happening to your package right now’.

Yeah… I know what you mean. Probably, in many cases; life is a lot more ‘simple’ compared to most in a bustling metro area. (which simple works for me… :slight_smile: )

I do the same thing with the “Locations” listed below peoples avatars here on BLF.
For instance…… Yours says, “Eastern Woodlands in the Wilderness of North America”.

I picture that in my mind as somewhere between East Tennessee & Pennsylvania, possibly even on up to Maine or into Canada; out pretty much away from it all surrounded by nature & a lot of mostly untouched land & woods.

Right or wrong, I’ll most likely never know. But it is fun to imagine. :wink:

Yeah… I see what you mean David, not a lot to go on there……. :smiley:

The blink or blinks when stopping ramp indicate what is used , once for the 7135 chip and twice for fet. You are below fet levels so it blinks once and that makes the temporary disabling of indicator LEDs harder for there is less time to switch off, half the time compared to two blinks using fet.

It’s blinking v1, not v1.1.
NarsilM V1 is what it’s supposed to have and is the latest.

Oh thanks. Mea culpa didn’t follow the thread sometimes. Mine is flawless btw.

AFF LINK RESULTS AND WHAT HAPPENED (or is happening) WITH IT.
Despite we were not aiming at making money Banggood was so kind to still allow us to do so.
It seemed fair to distribute these funds roughly like this:
40% team (7 people)
40% special involved BLFers (14 people)
20% GAW for those on the list before the PMs were send.

Over 1300 people have used the aff link and I have received money on my PayPal.
After fees and taxes this is what it boils down to:
7 x ~$55 for each member of the team $385 (free to use how they want as of now $82.50 allocated for Mrs Lumens)
14 x ~$27,50 for special involved BLFers $385 (payments started to those who reacted, as of now $27.50 allocated for Mrs Lumens)
14 x ~$14 for a GAW to members on the list before PMs send $196 (SB is yet to draw, so winners will e published later and given the choice as the rest has, they can use it for what they want :slight_smile: )

$966 total to be distributed.
Awaiting further response to PMs and emails now.
If more choose to give it to Mrs Lumens it will be posted without the name, I want all to eel free to use it for what they want.
