It’s kinda sad that some people will get as many as 4 lights and some will end up with nothing after waiting all these months for a PM to purchase one. Why can’t LT cover the entire GB list?
Wow, that sounds more than fair. As much trouble as this caused I would have figuted more like $15 - $25…… Around 10% - 15%.
LT is being very reasonable if they hold it at $3 –5. :+1:
This sounds excellent also. Using what they know works should cut down problems tremendously.
THANKS AGAIN……. LT, TA, Neal, & all involved. Well Done!!! :+1:
It’s not sad at all. Anyone could get much more than 4. You could sign up for 10 if you wanted to.
Also, we don’t know yet if anyone will be left out or not. Everyone on the list might get their light. We just have to wait and see.
Keep in mind the list was going on for over a year. It was a huge and popular thread back in 2016 when I first saw it. Not a whole lot of people were signing up, including myself. Then in the last few weeks of the group buy we had a lot of new people sign up to BLF just to get on the GT list.
No one should be getting sad because they might not get a flashlight at a sale price. It’s just a flashlight. Most people don’t even need it, they just want it. If there are some people who miss out on the sale price after the 1500th light is bought, it is not the end of the world. The lights will still be sold. I’m sure there will be coupon codes as well to bring the price way down.
(Sorry, I just don’t understand why people get emotional over these things)
Ok, just got an update on the Polland packages as well, Lumintop / Neal have contacted the carrier and they put a trace on the packages. As soon as they hear back on that they will make the next move.
It’s a lot easier if you loosen the upper head from the light engine first. That takes the pressure off of that o-ring on the lens. That giant o-ring can create massive amounts of friction. Then the bezel will unscrew by hand.
Very tough for me, I am not into 3D drawing or printing, and I think plastic twist has to be strong enough to twist GT open because it is tighten with such a big metal tool.
About missing packages…. Mine head package was so wet and soaked, that address was almost unreadable. It comes with piece of paper with handwritten address by post office employee I guess and packed to foil bag together. That might explain undelivered packages.
