[Lane32x]

Put me down for 2.
(An XPL and a Hi-CRI)
These look fantastic.

Also, I thought I was already a member here. Thanks for motivating me to finally register. Been coming here for years.

@ToyKeeper, thanks so much for all your work on this. And of course also to Neal & FW3A Team.

So is this first batch with the BLF discount only going to be XP-L HI, and that SST-20 will be at a higher price?
Also, if the only branding to be added is the bunny on the tail switch, is that etched into the metal or painted on?

First batch is XPL HI only. Hopefully later there will be an SST-20 version at a lower price. SST-20s are cheaper so should cost less.

Got my code, ordered right after.
XP-L HI 3D will do, until I swap the LEDs

Yes, the SST-20 will be cheaper - says in the pm what that price is. Dunno if I'm allowed to post...

In for 2, ordered one HI 3D with the code pm’ed from the FW3A Team. Thanx All!!

I need to talk to Neal about yours, actually. You were part of the project originally, so you should get at least one light free.

@Firelight2

How big is the delay between each email?

It looks like about 95 seconds each.

Also, the PM list isn’t identical to the interest list. It’s still in the same order, but with duplicates removed. One person can have many entries on the interest list, but can only appear once in the PM list. So the PM list is in order of first appearance on the interest list.

In practice, this means your PM number is lower than the request number.

I think the SST-20 version will probably be $30. Hopefully soon, since it’s easy to get those emitters in FB4 tint. Removing the FA/FD tint requirement allows things to happen much faster.

About the Lumintop-branded version, the bunny is etched into the tail.

The TLF/BLF group buy version has no logo or other markings on the light. It is completely blank.

So there is no guarantee that there will be HI-cri leds ever in this light and no guarantee that the codes will or won’t expire while we are waiting?

If it’s not too late – Sign me up for 1

Thanks for this info.

My guess is I should get my my PM code in 3-5 hours. I’m around number 200 on the list. :innocent:

Hi Gunga,

Looking at your position in the list and TK’s estimated time between each email notification, I figure that you should get your PM any time now

~55: in list
~95 seconds between messages
= ~87 minutes from start

[Bevo]

I’m #192 on the list and patiently waiting for my code. 2 years in the making.

[Illumenated]

I tried lurking and not clogging up the works with posts but I cant’ stand it anymore. I’M SO EXCITED! Thanks in advance for everyone’s work on this!!

[lightboks]

So we order these from neal’s, right?

[Gunga]

Woo! Thanks! Boarding in 5-9 min. Orders one in each tint. I’ll wait for sst 20 to order more.

Neal throws me a deal now and then - don't worry bout it at all.

[Random_Dan]

Will $50 be the standard price after the group buy?

[radellaf]

Interested, but completely clueless how to get on the list. Is there info I’m just missing in the 1st post?
