I’m sure I’m deranged but I’m afraid I just had to order the TK18. Oops! 
Hm? How?
I got the code, went to the page, only option was “preorder” vs “add to cart” or anything, and after clicking, it just went to an empty cart, nothing inside, no “we got youre pre-order”, nuttin’.
I figured I just had to wait a bit more…

No, I went through the “pre-order” option and and was led through the payment sequence in the usual fashion. A little different for me probably because I had to open an account with Banggood—never shopped with them before. That was quick and easy and I payed through Paypal. Done deal. Got the order confirmation. It’ll be awhile but I reckon I can scratch by with the lights I have now.

I just gave it a check, code works fine from my end. Perhaps try clearing your browser cache?
Yeh, just tried it now, worked fine, tnx!
Figured it just mightta been a bit early…

Was it mentioned somewhere that there would be an improvement made to decrease the ramping time in the latest productions?
It doesn’t appear anything has been changed, the 2 most recent reviews on Amazon (May 13 & May 11) both stated the ramping is slow.

My kit should be delivered Monday, so no worries, but would anyone have an idea when the light-only (currently listed as “backordered”) might be shipped?
Tnx!
I have a new one and it’s still around 6 seconds. But I don’t find it intolerable at all, especially with memory. Then you are only ramping part way one direction or the other. Plus, with 4 clicks of the button, the light goes into a 4 mode operation with no ramping. IMO, with good mode spacing, ramping is unnecessary anyway.
I personally think it’s a excellent light for the money. The light really works well when you replace the emitter with a XPL HI. I replaced the XPL, with a 20mm noctigon and a 5000k XPL-HI.
I have a TK05 also, and plan on swapping to a 5000k 219C
