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

@orangepeel
I’ve received my light, but no tracking info from Lumintop. I did receive tracking info from DHL a couple of days before delivery.

I also ordered extra cell carriers. There´s no info on those yet.

tracking number came via phone call wed, received my NW (with cells) friday

How is the flood on the GT70 model? I had read that the light actually had a decent amount of flood want to check that out before ordering. I know it isn’t a flood light just wonder how it beam looks, I apologize if there is beam pictures I have tried to go through this whole thread and haven’t seen a beam profile picture yet.

Check out the video in post #2.

The spill light is just the light directly from the emitter which misses the reflector. So if you have 7500 lumen on turbo, you have 7500 lumen worth of spill light. It will light up everything around you.

With the original GT, you only have about 1800 lumen of spill lighting, which is noticable dimmer.

Just ordered my NW and a CW conversion. Was gonna wait until after we moved to the new house but said to hell with it and am having it shipped to my brothers. Didn’t wanna risk missing out on the GB.

Probably a smart move…… :+1: . . :wink:
As long as your brother is trustworthy… . . :smiley: :smiley:

Is the GT70 NW a cooler tint compared to the GT NW? Got the 70 last week and comparing the two the 70 puts out a whiter light. Could I have received a CW by mistake?

Yes, GT70 is 5000K and the GT is 4000K.

Thanks, Great light!! Any opinions on Eastshine 18650?

They look way overpriced to me, from what I saw on eBay.

Only buy batteries from known reputable sources.

Well I have tried to fight it for several weeks, but couldn’t do it anymore. Purchased one through Nealsgadgets, the individual is top notch on communication. Glad to finally be joining the GT70 owners.

Complete newb here. I have watched yt videos on BLF and have a few BLF A6

Do I buy the light AND the conversion kit? OR is the conversion kit only if you want to upgrade a previous GT?

I don’t have a GT and just want a kickass light

Just the light, the conversion kit is for converting an OG GT. Welcome! You’re gonna love it

Got mine in…NW, no battery. Account hasn’t updated online but I’ve got it.

I also didn’t realize the battery issue… so I guess I will have to splurge. Went and bought some more batteries. And a Q8. And a couple new charges to get all 8 batteries charged.

Flashlights… WHY do I love them?

There is a seller on eBay named genuinecells that I have bought from several times. I have ordered 30Q’s, VTC4’s, VTC6’s, and NCR18650B button tops from them. Always fast shipping and great prices on cells.

Since I’m going to be using 8 cells in this monster… is there a better 8 cell charger than the nitecore i8? Or would 2 4-bay chargers be better?

Oha!
hast Du schon auf Taschenlampen-Forum.de gefragt was die dazu meinen? Die kennen sich eher mit dem Zoll aus.

I have a collection of 4 bay chargers I use for most things (LII-500’s and Opus C3100, although the fan on the opus can be annoying if you sit next to it).

For big jobs I pull out my custom 14 cell hobby charger :sunglasses:

I use my hobby charger too! Although this last time I was too lazy to set everything up, so I just cycled all 8 cells through my 2 Bay over the course of a couple days. Call me lazy or patient lol.
