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

“”“YEAH”“” :laughing: :laughing: Love the double headed GT!!! :+1: :smiley: Strap that to your shoulder! Got your 12 and 6 covered! :open_mouth:

The lanyard ring around the tailcap rotates independently of the tailcap’s threads.

Mine is hard to turn, not ‘twirlable’ like the prototype in VOB’s video.

Click play below to jump to the section of his video that shows the spinning ring.

I received email from Neal (because all that mixup with shipping method and then batteries included/not included…) on Thu, Dec 28, 2017 at 2:24 PM,
he sayed my light (with 8 samsung cells) will be shipped today but no other info, like DHL tracking number, was provided.

And I will name it…… GODZILLA!!! :stuck_out_tongue: :stuck_out_tongue:

Your bird photo made me laugh hysterically!

I found a few more. The goat is certainly my favorite! :partying_face:

Yes… Hello 911! I just saw a UFO zipping back and forth threw the sky :laughing: :stuck_out_tongue:

Here is the photo…
Not sure why the strap connectors are facing in different directions when fully tightened.

Perfect! Thanks so much for explaining it (and to other commenters as well)! Mine was just a little stiff at first, but now seems to be moving fine.

Please put me on list for a third GT. I need one more for modding.

The tailcap ring should rotate with a little effort to match whatever you want.

Also there is another mounting point higher up on the end I would recommend for attaching a strap, it will be better balanced.

I posted this in the other thread as well. That 5” neoprene cover on Amazon fits perfect. Like it was made for the GT

  1. What are the Amps you are all getting?
  2. What`s the lux you are all getting?

Interesting to know if everybody has similar output and throw!!!!

Please post them if you can.

fits perfect.... for the amount it covers ;)

reminds me of people wearing a rainhat, with no raincoat.... at least it keeps their hair dry ;p

Every time I see that video I can’t help thinking that every Londoner should have had a GT during the blitz. If the AAA gunners couldn’t hit their targets as they were flying, then at least the bombardier would have been blinded and just seeing a blue ball floating in front of his eyes.

I wonder who the first person will be to signal the ISS with their GT?

BTW, VOB, that video just doesn’t get old and neither does your obvious enthusiasm.

Well I got my light but not the batteries, I’ll send Neal another email and pm and hope he’ll answer.

Anyone going to Easy Off their bezel?

I think I might, Like my D1S. Maybe polish and give it the oil/burn treatment.

The objective is to cover the lens, as in “lens cover”. Would still want a lens cover even in a Flashlight bag. At least, I would.

I just assembled mine (it works!), LOL.

Definitely going to have to construct a case for this monster!

Anybody else notice dust on the reflector when the light is turned on? Mine looks perfect when off but when I turn it on you can see a lot of dust.
