all gt minis are backlit like that, mine looks more or less the same like yours. Its clearly that there is an issue with the buttons sadly on some lights. But if u have on a brand new light already a button thats unresponsive i dont think it will get better overtime, mine worked perfect for almost a month then suddenly one day unresponsive…
I hope they will cover us that has issues with this, its clearly something that should go under warranty and i mean 40$ i expected better quality overall…
Sometimes when I try to turn on the light it recognizes one click as two and goes straight to turbo or recognizes 3 clicks and goes to battery check mode, that is frustrating, but overall I like this light.
Yes same problem i have, the light is useless as its defective that way since its a gamble when it will turn on or off or even go turbo no matter if u click ten times not normal behaviour, send Neal a mail and ask for replacement head or something. Even if its just a few under 10 people so far out of 3-400 users its still not fun for the few of use that got the a defective light either at once or after a months use…
well so is mine, its not perfect centered the so called smiley its a bit off but not as off as his no but still….
I asked Neal if maybe a replacement head is an option to send, since that is easy just unscrew and it would probably work but if they dont want do that i have wasted 40$ on a light i will not use since its defective and warranty for a light thats 1 month old should cover normal use…
Just reviewing the GT mini for youtube, first thing I’ve noticed is my GT has strobes from default. Nice light tbh, the aluminium is very very soft though.
