That’s really cool. What’s the best source to order Carlco optics from?
Edit:
Carlco optics are very cheap and easy available in local shops. https://www.voelkner.de/products/337964/Carclo-LED-Optik-Klar-Geriffelt-Transparent-17-46.6-Anzahl-LEDs-max.-3-Fuer-LED-Luxeon-Rebel-Seoul-Semiconductor-Z5.html
I thin I’ll buy all available 105xx optics.
Yes, all TIR lens from the same series (105xx) which share the same footprint, diameter and heigh will fit. Have fun with swapping and experimenting, first step to modding.
(Check each one’s PDF and compare dimensions if you have a doubt).
I would very much like to be notified when the SST-20 versions are available.
You’ll know. Just look for the spike in a thousand posts in about a day. There will be the following spikes:
1. Now, because it’s ready to order. “I just got a PM telling me it’s ready to order! Yeah!” “I just placed my order. Yeah!”
2. In about 3-4 weeks, when people start getting them. “I just got a delivery notice! Yeah!” “I just opened the box! Yeah” “Etc.”
3. In about 4-5 weeks, when people start complaining about flaws. “OMG! The tailclip has a hole in it! I thought it wouldn’t have a hole! This is an outrage!”
4. Sometime soon after that, when the SST-20 version becomes available to order.
Location: This is not a real account. Contact Neal for support instead.
The first batch of PMs is complete. Everyone on the first list should have a message now, except for Garth and Paradise, who have private messages disabled.
I’m updating the list for batch 2 now, and then the list will be closed.
Shipping notice already for the 3D HI, cant say anything other than very impressed. I am really looking forward to this light and the trick UI. Can one have too many dog walking lights? I just love excuses for more , i just need maybe a 100 more dogs

Geez… wait until the last minute, why doncha?
The interest list is now closed, with KawiBoy1428 as the very last request.
The final total for BLF’s list is 1670 people, 2479 lights.
(this includes people who signed up then cancelled, so the actual number is slightly lower)
The second batch of messages will start in just a moment, with a much shorter delay between so they should all arrive within an hour.
If you have already received a private message with the purchase details, you won’t get a message in the second batch even if you requested more items. Simply use the coupon from the first message to order the items you requested.
(for example, KawiBoy1428 was at the beginning of the list and the end, so a second message won’t be sent)
I am worried that I possibly only should have ordered one as my first request and last request where over a year apart don’t want to jump the queue and upset the applecart
Admirable, but no need to worry. You only ordered what you were on the list for. They will make plenty of them.

… and now all messages have been sent.
Except for three people who have private messages turned off: Garth, Paradise, and USA. I don’t have a way to notify you, so … hopefully you’ll see this?
I’ll take one please

I’d say Arrow is your best bet. Prices are low and shipping is free.

Repeat.
So, just look for the 4th spike.
Glad to see these come to fruition! Order for a Neutral coming on Tuesday. (#1223 on the list.
) This has been a fun project to watch!
The fw & the D4 are of similar size , I’m thinking the holster would be perfect for D4 ?
Please put me down for 1 more please.
About to order mine. Quick question. Any concerns on ordering a Q30 cell from the seller? I know everyone is always cautious with these.
No concerns here.
Just get a 30Q from Neal if you want one included with your light.

Correct me if i’m wrong, but sst20 and xpl hi are the same footprint? A straight swap with no resistor changes is possible?
