[PART 1] Official BLF GT Group Buy thread. Group buy officially closed! Lights shipping.

After must consideration , sadly I have to withdraw my slot @ 318 for others.

Sorry !

Minimoke.

Glad to see the engraving thing turned into a DIY and not implemented for all, love the Giggles text for sure but love little to no engravings better :wink:

Will update the list later.
However I think the mass pm will be send based on the previous update so ignore it if you don’t want it after all.

To bad TM, i just entered the 555 range
Which means i have to wait somewhat longer

In case of non reaction/paying more people down the list will be send the PM :wink:

Any deadline since pm sent to make payment? So member like yokiamy can get pm too.

And i guest new 555 list will based this first payment?

Cmiiw

I didn't receive a PM yet, is that correct?

The PM text is being tweaked (Mr.Scott has just made the layout easier to read)
I think it is ready for sending but when it happens depends on when Mr Scott and SB can find the time to do so.

Google: Fablab
for your area. The often have a laser engraver. The conditions how you can use it are for each Fablab different, but it’s most small money.

Ask TA for a svg picture of the name

Anyone know of any of the Chinese vendors that have GA”s in stock ?
I have checked Aliexpress, BG, GB & Everbuying & none have any listed ?
Nkon, the european supplier, also doesn”t have any listed.
Failing that I think that Neal posted a while ago that he could supply 8 cells with each purchased GT ?
Any idea what the cells are & the price please anyone ?

i bought some GA’s from an alibaba seller 3 months ago. about US$3.80 a piece and no minimum qty required i think. you might like to try alibaba since their vendors tend to accept Paypal as well anyway.

LT wrapped Panasonic protected 3400 BT I guess

Here is the Giggles Text that I used in a few different formats. Personally I would stretch it out another mm or 2 to fill out the flat area but otherwise I think it works great.

Giggles Text For Engraving

Thanks for the link.

That is with am XPG2 and only 850 lumen. The GT will throw a more usable beam for sure. I hope that it actually gets to 1.2k lux to justify the size of the light. I am sure that modders will get well past that mark very quickly.

89 is half of 118? Must be some Chicago math in there somewhere… just sayin.

When I swapped in an XHP-35 over the de-domed XM-L2 U4 in the Maxtoch Shooter 2X, the throw stayed pretty constant but the size of the spot nearly doubled as did the lumens. I’d much rather have the larger spot and double brightness to be able to make out something long range than the small pencil beam you can’t even decipher with a scope.

Great to get light so far downrange, not so easy to find actual uses for it other than bragging rights on paper.

When I get the PM to send the $14 down payment, I assume that it will tell me where to have PayPal send the $14 and then later the second payment will be to LT for $97?

Chicago math :smiley:
But indeed if a XPG2 in TN42 does 1,2mcd put one in the GT for higher numbers, I stay with NY sharpie beam :wink:

And it is about to go down!
PMs could be send in a matter of hours, a day tops.

Yes, you will receive clear instructions as The Miller told earlier.
You have to pay the first 14 dollar to Neal, the rest will probably be told in the PM

Oh boy, it’s going to happen!
Giggle, giggle :wink:
