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

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.

CHECk YOUR BATTERY CARRIERS, WHEN I LIFTED THE TOP ONE THERE WAS A SCREW SITTING THERE THAT WAS NOT PUT IN.
I put it in with a 2mm allen wrench and checked the others, the rest were fine and tight.

Someone mentioned the weight w/8 batteries somewhere. I don't remember what it was.

Has anyone weighed in yet?

Not sure about GT but each battery is 46-47 grams…

IIRC 1800g/2200g wo and with batteries approximetely

FRONT GLASS PROTECTION for BLF GT

Hi everybody!

- I found this "hood hat" used for photography lenses (I use them on my gear and are very good quality) that should be fine for protecting the front of our beloved BLF GT!

- I still didn't get my GT, but already ordered one of these because it's very cheap ($9.95) and the specs seem to be perfect: "Fits 5.00 to 5.75" (12.7 to 14.6 cm) diameter lens hoods"

- I want to keep my GT safe when it arrives, especially considering the huge front lens...

- I paste link below. There's also a video on the site showing the product.

Hope this helps, cheers! :)

PS: I started a new thread with the info few hours ago because this one was locked. Now that's working again I thought it was worth sharing here for GT current & future owners ;)

I mentioned this as a “guesstimate” at one time…

I am also interested to know…

My postal scale says the GT weighs 5 pounds, 0.1 ounces when loaded with 8 Samsung 30q button tops.

That’s 2.27 kilos.

That's a hefty flashlight!

Thanks

Trustfire T90-2 1428g without batteries.
Fresh memories. A few days ago I modded one with XHP70.2 :slight_smile:

In another GT thread, someone mentioned not receiving a printed manual with their light.

My light came with a single sheet of A4 paper printed on both sides, folded into quarters.

Here are two .JPG scans. I reduced the dimensions a bit to allow for printing on letter-sized (8.5x11”) paper.


The first QR code on panel 8 of the manual leads to this thread.

The second QR code on panel 8 of the manual leads to Lumintop’s homepage.

The QR code inside the tailcap also leads to Lumintop’s homepage.

The tailcap QR code is visually different, and even has the Lumintop bunny in the middle! :partying_face:

FWIW, Lumintop’s support page doesn’t appear to have a .PDF manual for the GT yet.

EDIT: User steel_1024 posted a Google Drive .PDF link to the printed manual in this thread

I’m eyeing these on Amazon and I’m not sure whether to purchase XL or XXL.

XXL seems like the better option but I think RobertB bought an XL and his fits perfectly.
