[alive: M4D deal] jetbeam RRT1 950 Lumen

:beer: yay!

Mine is shipped too. Now I hope my new LEDs for this light arive in time.

which LED are you planning?

Got in on this. Thanks. Saved me some money.

Was in doubt to use 219b sw40 9080. But decided to with 3000k sst-20 95cri.

Over on CPF, one guy posted about using a Dremel and boring out the slot ends just a little to make 12mm work. So I’m assuming the thickness is OK.

Over on CPF, one guy posted about using a Dremel and boring out the slots just a little to make 12mm work. So it wasn’t just the length but the thickness and depth that required trimming.

for a while, this light was the main news! So many others being offered up now :wink:

Same! :stuck_out_tongue:

Still waiting to hear why my BG order was secretly cancelled.

I put up some pics of the trit slots ground out to fit the 2x12mm trit vials a few weeks ago. WTB: Jetbeam RRT01 – Any place to buy it?! + [RRT01 2019 discussion] - #261 by moderator007
It’s either grind the slots to fit 2x12mm or use smaller trit vial. I never had any luck finding 2x10mm even though they do exist.

Good to know that, thanks. There are 1.2 mm x 5 mm tritium vials available. So you could stack 2 of them in a slot… but will look a bit thin.

JB never mentioned the slots are for trits. Could be just coincidental ornaments

BTW Martin, sent you PM regarding my order which is on hold. BG couldn’t ship it to my address (after 2 weeks processing time waits) and asked me for extra shipping cost without telling me how much the extra would be. Just asked me a yes or no confirmation

PMed you

Mine arrived this morning. I found it stuffed into an old walking boot outside my front door, no note left, and it would have gone through the letterbox. Very odd. It took 10 days to reach me.

Anyway, it looks much nicer than I thought, very bright, lovely rotary switch, beam has a ring but fine. Beautifully made. It’s on a par with my Sunwayman lights.

How fast is the strobe?

definite fail, forces Vinh to the use of a pair of 1.2 x 5mm to fill the slot, and atm mixglo only has green

It is disappointing that they almost got it the right size, but not.

jon_slider, can you please post a picture where we can see how the trits glow? I want to see if it looks good with the gap in the middle.

Maybe a bad situation can be turned around with the combination of two colors in one slot.

It’s from skylumen
