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

They should ship inside the light when ordered with the light. So it would be in 1 box.

Yes, VOB measured it at over 1.2 Mcd.

I have been thinking about getting that same lens. I think it should be possible to 3D print a replacement bezel to allow it to basically bolt on. Without a wavien collar though it won’t gain much so I put it on the back burner until I can find a collar.

Correct, just replace the R091 with the R050.

It should not be divided like you are thinking. It will be a continous process of boxing and putting in 2 piles every day (DHL and registered mail). How many boxes can one man package in a day? It’s hard to say. If he starts on Monday and can do 111 boxes per day, then he might get all 555 out before he leaves at the end of the week. If he can get 140 boxes a day then he will get the first 555 plus 140 boxes from the next group done. For him to get all 1000 boxes out before he leaves he would have to pack 200 boxes per day. Is that even possible by one man? I don’t know.

Anyway, the delivery guys should pick up whatever he has ready on a daily basis. He’s going to do this steadily until he has to leave around the 16th or 17th.

This is what I understand.

Are you going to make your own Storm of Ra light?

In case the sun dosent come up one day, break glass. :partying_face:

Anyone else got shipping massage? Or it’s false alarm?

They are not suppose to ship until next week, so my guess at this point is it was a test shipment to make sure they have all their ducks in a row. I have not heard anything more about it though.

It’s supposed to ship DHL Express, not eCommerce.

Unless these are the same thing? I’m not familiar with DHL at all.

Wooohooo! My GT is ordered!

:laughing: :laughing:

I paid on 05 December via PayPal and responded to Neal’s return email with phone number and BLF name. I’m not on the list on page #344. I hope I get the GT in this round…I know I am a bit anxious…LOL!

I forgot that I responded Neal’s email with my phone number and BLF user name.
Big thanks for the team to make this come true. :+1:
I will buy a plastic toolbox and make a foam insert for the GT and for a spare set of batteries. And I will 3D print a lens cap for it.Does Anyone has an accurete measurement of the bezel outside diameter? I start make the lens cap design now.

I was planning to do the same…I did a quick look and didn’t see OD for the bezel…anyone else know this spec??

I found somewhere TA said 134mm

He has not updated the last several payments yet, I am sure he will get to them soon.

Correct, just checked again on the V2 and it is indeed 134mm

Please add me to the group buy list. Thanks.

New * Cree XD16* , extreme density LED. This could be a game changing LED for throw lights.
284 lumens per mm2. 726 Lumens at 2A 6W. 1.6mm*1.6mm Can’t wait to see how it respends to higher currents.
