We don’t even know what leds it will have. ToyKeeper has not seen the latest prototype.
Unless Lumintop has already chosen what LEDs to use and bought them and started a production run and maybe ToyKeeper has already handled the latest prototype and is just keeping quiet about it, then I would say we’re still quite a long ways from shipping a final product.
I know lumintop can get the production rolling pretty quick because we’ve seen it before, but we really need to get the above mentioned items sorted out first.
If I understand correctly, the springs are nothing special. The light isn’t designed for maximum lumens, it’s designed to be well-rounded. Super-low-resistance springs may not be desirable here.
Anyway, I think Neal may have sent production samples out this week, so I can probably give more information soon. And then if the schedule holds, purchasing can probably start shortly after CNY. Then there’s the usual month or so for slow shipping. So a rough ETA for people actually receiving lights is … maybe March?
Damn it. I was going to try and skip this light, but the hype train has left the station. Please put me down for one with XPLs. Thanks everyone for the work and time put into this project!
