Option #3…. make the XP-L HI model now. Wait on the Samsung model until the proper LH151D can be obtained.
Or…. just put a 5000K LH351D in it if they are available in a nice Rosy tint. :wink:

  • “3. Make the XP-L HI model now, and do the LH351D lights later”.

Vote for…
make the XP-L HI model now.

5433

Hi Now.

5434

HI now, high CRI with good tint when possible.

5435

Assuming it has been finalized that there will be two emitter options, I absolutely think one should be made now, if that is possible, and the other should be delayed until it can be made without comprising on tint.

5436

Option 3 please. Hi now. Better tint Samsung later.

5437

I’m with everyone else: make the XP-L HI first and wait for Samsungs with nice tint. As I’ll be going for the Samsung version, this will allow other people to find any problems with the first batch.

5438

My preferred option is:

Go for the XP-L HI lights right now, and worry about the LH351D lights later.

5439

XP-L HI now, LH351D later.

5440

I am all for the XP-L Hi as well, as long as it isn’t 4000K. 5000K or a bit better is good with me. So if the XP-L is going to be 4000K I would wait for the Samsung emitter if it’s going to be 5000K or better. If both are going to be 4000K then I would prefer a light without any emitters at all. If none of that is a option I will buy another D4.

5441

Good question…. :+1:

  • Is the XP-L HI going to be ’at least 5000K’ (or a bit more??)
5442

Release the XP-L V3HI 5000k or better and may God have Mercy on my Soul… I want it….I want to use it…. or at least have it, before I’m DEAD! :smiley:

5443

Is it too late to get on the list? If not please add me to the list.

Thanks,

The reason the GT needed extra shipping costs for certain countries was due to its very large size and weight. Some countries cost $70 to $90 to ship it and Lumintop did not know this in advance.

This little light is not going to have such crazy high shipping costs. Lumintop has shipped thousands of lights this small, so there should not be any shipping cost surprises.

The reason there was a PayPal fee was because the GT was bought through Neal’s personal account and from the fact Lumintop estimated a too low Group Buy price way before they knew the total cost of the light to make and the shipping costs. They lost money on the early lights and made a tiny bit on the later ones. Lumintop could not afford to pay the fee themselves as they would have lost even more money.

Fast forward to the FW3A, I don’t think we have to worry about extra PayPal fees as the final price is not announced yet. So far it is just an estimated price. I guess they have learned their lesson on locking in prices too early.

We should get a firm price closer to the actual sale. This way there should be no “extra” fees involved.

The GT (and GT70) contains zero glue. Maybe you meant the GT Mini which had a glued bezel.

Option 3

5446

Hello, I vote for:

XP-L HI now, LH351D later.

I’m on the TLF Interest List.

5448

I would like the XP-L HI now, and the other later. It will be easier on my wallet to do two $30 purchases than one$60 one.

5449

That is my choice

5450

That is my favorite option too :sunglasses:
