Lumintop GT micro

I think, Lumintop should also consider this version:

BLF GT M:
2S3P (6 pcs total) 18650 (OR a slimmer 2S 26650 version)
Net reflector diameter: 95 mm
XHP35 HI emitter

I think, this could be implemented as being just a bit more than half weight of the original BLF GT, and it would be a very practical thrower.

GT Micro could be a better idea with the Osram White Flat emitter.

interest list is open!

I would rather see 2S 21700 because there are already a ton of similar 2S 26650 lights already including the new Jaxman X6 Hunter, Convoy L2 & L6, Thorfire S70, Sofirn SP70, etc.

Thing is that for me a general light appeals in any output, both low output and high output lights have their use and I accept and appreciate less output when the light runs on a safe NiMh battery.

But throwers is different, they must throw really well to be attractive, regardless the battery chemistry. A micro-GT modded with the best current throw led, the Osram KW CSLNM1-TG, on a NiMh and the best boost driver available, will still make under 50 kcd. My sk68 mod with dedomed XP-E2 from 4 years back does that too. While that same micro-GT with a 14500 does 130 kcd, which is impressive for such a small light and immediately attractive for me.

(admitted, I have no grandsons yet and my 8yr-old thinks me and my hobby is a bit silly)

I’m not really impressed by the battery life a FET on one of those entails. Since it won’t be AA compatible, I’ll just stick with a 18650 light.

how much runtime highest on a 1000mah cell then ?

If there was a 2 or 3 AA extension for this I would be all over it!

Aye! Put me on the list!

Bummer on no AA support, but will be interested if that becomes an option in the future.

. this is the (derailed) discussion thread ;)

Wait, What? Did I miss something? They’re putting the Micro on Rails? A Rail Light? Cooooool! :stuck_out_tongue:

Consider the thread re-railed. :smiley:

Any idea if these will have a true neutral emitter (around 5000K) , or will they go with the warmer 4000K again?

Oh,oh . I think Dales startin a rail light dream next !

Interested if NiMh will be fully supported with decent output.

Which translates to: not interested :person_facepalming:

Lol. It seems like you’d get a bit more than 50kcd out of a good cell, but you da boss. Still, that’s firmly into ‘decent’ imo, when you’re talking a tiny cell with like 3 watt hours of energy. Plus, it’d be great for them to have a small boost driver in their repertoire. Shame, that.

Interested

I have to second robo819’s motion, some of the GT Mini’s came with a quite warm XP-L HI… if they’re going to glue the bezels then there needs to be a few choices in tint.

Any news on head diameter? Or throw measures?

will probably be as gt mini offered, cool white and neutral white but im just guessing on this only…
