*BLF LT1 Lantern Project) (updated Nov,17,2020)

DBSAR, thank you so much for all of your hard work in making your dream a reality. I’m positive this awesome lantern will make its debut and will be a true testament to this community. Best wishes to you! :+1:

I haven’t been here for long but still, no need to apologise.
Seeing how much you’ve done and how far this project has advanced, a huge thank you to you.
But please take care of yourself. Health is more important than anything.

I’m sure there are people who can pick up from where you left.

Den, I am sorry to hear that and hope you will get better soon!

Take care of yourself, Den. Best wishes

my appologies everyone on the replies last night, (it’s been a very rough couple stressful days and not been feeling well for a week)

Hope that things work out for you. Your life and health are way more important than anything going on in BLF so you should definitely focus on them.

Den……… Sorry to hear things are tough and I hope they get better soon…… good luck man :beer:

Hope you are feeling better Den. Hang in there and just keep looking toward the light . . . :wink:

Very Interested

Den, thank you for all your work! Please take care and I wish you a speedy recovery (:

I am soooooo IN!!

Interested in ONE lantern. Two, depending on the final price.

Thank you to everyone involved for all the hard work and dedication (and for feeding my light addiction)

And DBSAR: Get better soon…and thank you for all you’ve done for this project.

I thought about this and the USB port problem

It may sound strange but why not simply produce v1 lantern body

  • with USB micro and C port on the same aux board just wired in parallel below one silicone cover
    And then in V2 this aux usb board gets replaced with new driver

So the upgrade would only need 3 LED wires soldered and likely a Thermal resistor with 2 wires for precise thermal regulation

So… Are you talking about a possible manufacturing design change or a possible after-market mod for those who could accomplish it?

It would be at least great if its possible to upgrade v1 lantern later to v2 with a kit

That would be a fun little mod for those interested.
