I paid for my GT within a few minutes of getting the P.M., and I’m #10 on the list. Looks like the list may be in order of payment received. I’m hoping the lights are shipped in the same order.
So using your formula and Cree’s specs of 280lm mm^2 * pi = 880cd mm^2 at the manufacture’s rated current of 2A. If I remember correctly the flat black achieves it’s max around 5-6A. I’m just wondering how this compares. I know the manufactured is saying it has 5x the lumen density of previous gen cree leds. None of this matters if they don’t produce a larger version with adequate output, but it’s interesting.
When looking at the datasheet click on the heading for column A, a drop down menu will appear, click on sort A-Z.
This will give you the list sorted by your interest list number, the column of numbers on the left are just the line numbers of the database
I had been off work the last few weeks for the holidays which is why I was able to take on this full time job of this group buy but I was just informed that I will have to return to work earlier then planned.
So I will not be around much after today. Hopefully the Miller shows back up and can keep things on track.
I had signed up to do the design process, so I was not prepared for this side of things. Thanks to the rest of the team for pulling together to make this happen as well.
I will try to keep up with things as best I can but I generally only get a few mins in the morning to myself, so that could be hard.
The next round of PM’s are almost ready to go, just waiting on one last details and then we will start the process of sending them out tomorrow or saturday (well, Scott and SB will).
Luckily most of the hard work is done at this point, so after this Neal should be able to get your payments and ship out the lights.
I just bought one of these today. It seems very heavy duty and surprisingly well made to me! Will make a ridiculously overkill case for my BLF GT.
There is a current 25% off coupon available ( www.hfqpdb.com - no affiliation) that brought the cost to $30 + tax. Unprecedented in my opinion for this Pelican type case.
Thank you TA, you have done amazing job so far, and we really appreciate your efforts and all troubles you had to face with after The Miller decided to leave…
I think all we know for sure is that we really DO NOT know much at all.
We do know that Neal said the GT would begin to ship Monday.
Anything other than that right now is speculation. Which is just fine…. but it is nothing more than a guess.
Hmm 160 plus down the list are getting shipping notices so it must not be strictly based on who paid first. I’m 120 something and no DHL shipping notification yet
TA…… Thank you!!! :+1: …… As far as I am concerned you have doing a stellar job handling a confusing situation. The things you have done have been clear, concise, up front, & decisive!!
