Lumintop GT micro

This is what LED4Power is selling

This is what Hank is selling at his store

Great, thanks for that. I have passed it on so we will see what they come up with.

I just tested the GT Micro with the known best 14500 cells on the market. The new Shockli 14500 1000 mah matches the output of the previous king of high current 14500, Windyfire 600mah but with much more capacity. Very impressive. The output with these cells make this light almost as bright as the GT Mini and D1S. The Shockli also beats Sanyo UR14500P by a large margin, which was the previous best overall 14500.

The GT Micro just became much more interesting.

thanks for sharing your findings!

:beer:

nassagus, check to be sure your emitter isn’t grounding on the negative pad at the MCPCB, a small solder ball from the re-flow can do this. Use a multi-meter to check at the bottom of the MCPCB and the negative pad, if it has continuity you need to re-flow the emitter again. :wink:

$26 on Amz US right now.

I’m trying to decide between the micro or the X5.

Basically the same price right now.

Somebody sell me on one or the other.

Both.

Resistance is futile.

:smiley: You’re probably right.

I was trying to behave.

I’ll start next year.

I gave in and bought a GT Micro. At the price, I’ll live with the cool white.

I really need to stop coming to this site… I’m not sure if I’m thankful or annoyed at people posting price drops of things.

In, for ~$28 delivered.

Yeah I can’t help myself. Check a bookmarked Lightning Deals page and next thing you know I am one-click ordering a non-essential light (but after 2 or 3 how many are really essential anyways).

I try to at least not by something too similar to what I already have. This one is rather unique.

Misery loves company :wink:

Goggle this site and see how many times I start a comment with “I hate you guys…”.

Yep, I gave in as well… My first 2020 gift to myself !

On my last hike I used the FW3A, but the throw was simply too low to see far enough on critical parts at night. I hope this can fill that void. Weight to throw ratio looks promising! Good enough excuse to convince myself I NEED another light :person_facepalming:

I gave up trying to make excuses on why I need another light about 100 lights ago lol.

I’ve kept the total to around 20 working lights. I convinced myself I did a fair job in not buying too many shelf queens.
I guess I have a kinda weak month. Think I’ll blame the awesome LT1. I have 5 in the mail at the moment… Still looking for the perfect right angled flashlight. Maybe 2020 is a good moment to stop making excuses :smiley:

Am hoping 2020 will bring in a light with a full spectrum color LED.

I like Lumens. I really like color changing Lumens.

Is that already a reality? :stuck_out_tongue:

Guess I might spring for a kinda cute MICRO.
Question. @400m, what footcandles does the MICRO project? Or lux.

I got mine today and already in process of sending it back for a refund. The button is really inconsistent. Sometimes taking multiple clicks to turn it off or on. Not acceptable to me for how much I paid for this light. I paid too much, I’m actually embarrassed how much I paid for this light at Amazon from Sino Trading Co, Ltd. To make matters worse is I have to pay to ship it back to China then waiting to see if it makes it all the way back to get my refund. Sucks. Not a good experience for me all around. I’ll edit this post tomorrow when I find out how much it cost me to ship it back. I have a feeling this is not going to be good. Man I hate having to return shit.

Yeah the light had issues on the gt mini also, its a really mushy button i wish they use something more sturdy… but if u bought it on amazon why must u return it to china? makes no sense… just send it back to amazon say its faulty should be no problem.

Return to china i would never agree, it costs more then the light u paid for and it takes forever to send stuff back there… dont do it!
