The BLF GT70 "Giggle Monster" is here! 7,500lumens, 1,500m throw! Group buy Closed!

Yeah, I kinda saw this coming but thanks for confirming it.

It is much easier for them to ship things in batches due to the convoluted shipping system they are forced to use, so they do tend to put things on sale ahead of time so they can minimize the number of batches.

Last I heard the XHP70.2 LED’s should be arriving this week (need to see if they have show up yet come to think of it) and they will then have them reflowed to the mcpcb’s and finally they will be ready for shipping.

I am hoping it should be ready by the end of the month.

It may be fine. Take a real close look at your tips, though.

Yep, sounds right to me TA, after you get used to how they do things and just accept it along with just forgetting you just bought something from them, it’s not so bad until it gets to be 2 months down the road and you forgot so well that you really forgot they have my couple hundred bucks,
Saw KB1428’s pic above and thought it was a pic from my place, I’m getting way to many lights.
Buying odd ball presents this year for Xmas. And this NW is mine and I’m done buying big and going back to my budget lights, I hope if there’s any budget left.

Looks pretty good.
How much is this in USDollars??

Soldering Station 2005

R 1,725.00

It’s priced at 25$US+taxes.

So, it’s actually pretty good.

If that is the South African Rand - R1725.00 =$117.77 to $128.15 depending on which converter you use

Thanks Blue. How did you arrive at $25??
What currency are you using for the ‘R 1,725’??

Thank you shirnask. Lothar is from South Africa it appears, so maybe that is it. :+1:

Yip, R1725 would equate to roughly $115-120

Thanks, I’ll have a look tonight

Thanks for verifying that Lothar. :+1:

Interested in buying a NW - BLF GT70!

My GT70 arrived today
it was shipped from China Wednesday
and was delivered this afternoon
DHL is amazing

The reflector looks great, I see no flaws
They did not etch BLF GT70 into the side of the light engine
wish they did

I just fired it up outside,
it puts out a very impressive amount of light

Has anyone had their NW lights shipped yet? Mine is still waiting on shipping…

They had a slight delay getting the LED’s in and reflowed to the mcpcb’s. They do have them now though and will start shipping next week.

This is why I build in some time for delays and said it could be the end of the month before they ship, you just never know what will come up.

Cool, thanks for the update! I did the order on mobile and had a few false starts getting the code to work, so I was a bit worried my order was screwed up!

I am telling someone you got the beast. Jk… congrats…

The GT70 CW is awesome, I tested it and was amazed. Now, can someone make me a handle and battery compartment similar to the maxabeam? Oh,and something to plug it in the car 12 volt socket :smiley:

I have been off for a while , so i have a little question .

Is there a deadline to order the conversion kit ? I have received the email but still haven’t ordered . Thanks!

They have not informed me of the end date yet but I expect it will not be that much longer.

I don’t generally ask too many questions about the end date in hopes they forget about it lol. The downside to this is there is not usually much warning when it does end.

If I had to guess I would say that 2 more weeks should be doable and possibly longer but I simply don’t know at this point.

Thanks TA :+1:

I ordered 2x conversion KIT on 11 September.
For now non info about shipping.
Order status : Wait For Shipping
Did anyone who has ordered conversion KIT has diferent status?
