hi, i ordered 05 of may. i just called DHL/netherlands. they couldnt find something. my question is does someone knows if the parcells are on there ways or stil @lumintop ?
They should be shipped this week, see the message from Texas_Ace on saterday 12th of may.
Texas_Ace:
Just got a response. All of the shipments were delayed as they ran out of 35E cells and Neal decided to wait to travel to Lumintop until next week to help with the packing (it is a long trip).
The cells are supposed to show up on Monday, so they will ship them out next week. This goes for all the orders, lost and new orders.

I don’t know anything about the customs fees or tax for the Netherlands. Maybe someone from there who has already received their light can give us more details about whether they had to pay a tax.

Mine came with registered shipping, not DHL, and just slipped through. If they catch it, tax is 21% of the purchase price, plus whatever the shipping company adds as handling costs, in case of DHL in one case that was 18 euro.

In this particular light, if you use high quality protected cells like the 10A ones from IMRbattery, then the only real downside will be cost.
Cheap protected cells can suffer other issues like high resistance but that is the cheap protection circuits.

He has not responded to me in a day or 2, that is usually a sign that he is at lumintop or at least away from home. His VPN and thus internet access is seriously limited when it is not at home.
Does this look like a copy to you guys? Or is Astrolux and Lumintop related?

It is 100% a copy.
I know nothing else about it though.
I just happened across it and thought it looked very similar except for the quality

You wait a bit longer, no orders from May have shipped yet to our knowledge. Everything was delayed a bit as they ran out of batteries.
