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.
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.
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.
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.
The black flat does 900lm/mm^2.
You can also see from the datasheet that the 726 lumens at 2A is already at 400% output and it doesn’t look like it will increase to much more than 500 or 600% from the curve.
Assuming that you can get 2-3x more lumens like other cree LEDs that would still be less than 600-900lm.
Just received a DHL Express parcel (value USD$ 50) and DHL charged me USD$ 35 for “handling” and VAT.
That bill came in the mail a week after I had received the package.
… DHL Norway say: that when a package is shipped with DHL Express, you agree that DHL prepays customs, VAT and any other public charges for the importer.
I’m guessing the die size is the same as the package size at 1.6mm2. This die size puts it in the range of the xg-g2.
The xhp35 has a die size of 2.35mm2.
You could put a XD16 or xg-g2 in the GT and get even further throw, but with less lumens and the hotspot size will be much smaller. It becomes more laser like and not as usable.
