So they are using a green led on the switch, rather than the dim red led. Nice!
How do I know when the light is shipped? I have not received any email
Bezel glued on with Blue Loctite on my production sample. Gonna be a bear getting off it you don’t have significant tools to attack it with.
Got mine today - it’s great! Good build, and brighter than I expected
Flashed Anduril and swapped in the Samsung LH351D 5000k 80 CRI… it now makes 1552 lumens on this new emitter with zero other changes. Still the Sanyo GA cell, not quite fully charged.
Got the LYCN tracking from Martin - say “package accepted” in CHINA 8/2. EMS. (USA, just like teacher). I’m not going to worrry about it. Probably see positive motion into/thru US sometime next week if I’m lucky.
Keep those pics coming!

Replaced the FET with an SIR800DP, added 18ga leads, spring bypass on driver, removed mcpcb at tail cap and put a copper disc with only the larger spring in place and a 20ga bypass inside the spring. So now, on the Sanyo GA cell, it makes 1683.6 lumens at start.
You got an email from martin with tracking of your parcel… 
om my production NW i got:
4.70A @nitecore NI18350A toomAh
4.95A @Aspire 1300mAh
5.25A @keeppower IMR18350 (black) 750 mAh
5.60A @shockli IMR 1150mAh
That little Shockli is really delivering! Wont’ last long of course but hey, it can show em long enough to take care of em!
I’ve tried butt I can’t find any meaningful comparisons to the Emisar D1S. beamshots?
I mention in post 173 and 175 that they should be very comparable to each other. Very close. The big difference is just styling.
I’m sure as more people recieve their package we will get more info. It’s still early.
The D1S and GT mini are essentially the same light. The drivers on both are press fit in and glued. They are almost the same size. Driver’s are similar in function… the D1S was kept simpler by the mfr.s wishes. Beam profile too is very similar and they can both be tweaked to pretty high output. The D1S has a short thread on top of the tube and at the driver, can be problematic with longer cells like button tops and protected cells. At the end of the day they really are similar lights but with different design. If both are flashed with Anduril so they perform the same, the differences are really very minimal. I have 2 D1s’s and the GT mini, I like em very much, both for different reasons.
Last night, stock light, looking down the road-under-construction in front of our house…
This afternoon, broke in through the Blue Loctite…
A look at the tail cap with the copper disc replacing the pcb…
The business end, showing the new Samsung LH351D 5000K 80 CRI with the dome left on…
FWIW, once the loctite was defeated removal of the driver was easy. De-soldered the emitter leads then ran a small jewelers screwdriver alongside the black wire to the driver, couple of bumps on the screwdriver and the driver was free.
im in for 2, how do i order ?
Just received my GT mini a few minutes ago! It looks great.
Received it today. Very good looking light. Really love it how much it looks like the GT!
received my GT mini :+1: 
Got mine today and I love it!
Finish is great
Threads are great
Reflector is great
AR coating is great
NW - bordering WW - is great, same as on Big Brother.
Short tube is great
Throw is great - especially for its size.
.
Packaging was also great: light in foam in a Lumintop box, that box wrapped with bubblefoam put in a plain box, with plastic over it to protect against moisture!!
Cheers,
Nico
