Post 1
Speaking about customs, I’m actually a bit worried about the weight and size of this beautiful beast causing issues with custom rules in some countries. Any estimates on the box dimensions and total shipping weight? Thanks!
Hello sb
I will ask the lumintop about the box and weight
Great, thanks Neal!
So the updated list is not the sorted out one. That’s done by Mr. Scott?
yes Mr.Scott runs the core list through his sorting programm
Is the advance payable to everyone or only the first 555?
@The Miller
Is it possible to update the core list with blanks to see how many dropped out?
This gives a nice indication on where everyone is in the list.
The shorter,the better… 
I wondering what kind of box will the put the light in? Lumintop’s usual brown box or something different altogether?
I am so happy that you are satisfied with what the government does with your tax money. I think the nearly punitive and extortive ways that import taxes are levied is unfair and that is why many of these folks are worried. I live in the US and don’t have the same issue as others.
I do, however, know for a fact that I am way more efficient than any government could ever be with my hard earned money. In that same vein I do absolutely everything I possibly can legally to ensure that they don’t a single penny more than necessary from me. Perhaps the Canary Islands local government has the best taxes to benefit gained by the populace, I just don’t know. I am glad you are happy to patriotically pay as much in taxes as you can, however I don’t think you should judge other members without walking in their shoes.
Now then: BACK TO THIS BEAST
Can a hard shell case with sponge cutouts be a possibility for this light ? (Like the olight M2X-UT or M3X)
Safety for the light during transit (as its heavy, needs more protection i guess)and carrying it will become easier with a case.
I know it’s a far fetched idea, can be sold at an extra cost or separately as an accessory like the idea of a short tube.
Just my 2 cents.
Would be awesome for sure!
Hard case 20
GT + set orings and lens 250
Short tube 10
8 cells 48
2x lii500 charger 50
$378 / ~$400 excluded shipping seems an OK (but expensive nevertheless ) price to ask for such set.
Not that it will be a groupbuy thing but I can see LT do it.
Or get a pelican case for like $100 
If the good hard case is only 20 , ill definitely go for it.
Please, put me down for second - I am 334 in the list.
So I quite possibly missed it, but is DHL the only shipping option? I agree that tax evading is not nice, but at the same time I’m not sure if I want to cough up another extra 40-50 euros 
There are DHL and an alternative shipping option.The alternative ships in 2-parts so 2 parcels.
You get to choose which shipping option when doing the final order.
