I too would like to be added to a list.
I’m not too sure how BLF works so if some explanations can be given about when payment needs to be submitted just let me know.

Please add me to the 2nd batch group buy
quote from vob….I got 1,176,000 at 10m and the 1,229,000 at 15m
those are your corrected numbers, not the ones you actually read at those distances correct ?
because this is what my dummy calculator says 
i think that says 117 million lux, im not sure ! 
I would like to purchase, please count me in.
Thanks
Candela by definition is lux at one meter.
If you say 1176000cd at 10m that means the lux mas measured at 10m and then the candela was calculated based on that.
You cannot have 1176000 candela at 10 meters, that doesn’t make any sense. That would be saying “lux at 10m at 10m”.
And yes for a highly collimated light you need to measure at a longer distance to get accurate cd values, which is why it is higher at 15m than 10m.
Can I still get in for one please;? 
so his actual numbers were 11,700 lux at 10 meters then?
i just shot my tn42 at 10 meters and got 7,800 lux
I usually use 5M for smaller lights, since you use the distance, squared, then you’re multiplying the meter reading by 25. To calculate distance you would then multiply that result by 4 and take the square root. So, if you measured 7,800 lux at 10 meters you would multiply 7800 x 100 for 780Kcd, 780,000 x 4 = 3,120,000. The square root of 3,120,000 is 1766.35 so your TN42 would throw 1766.35M by calculation. (which is 1.098 miles)
Edit: For the record, when we say 780Kcd the K means thousand, 780 thousand candela. So when Matt got 1290Kcd it’s really expressed as 1.29Mcd. The M being Million. A new realm, right? 
Yes, that is correct.
Not yet. I will be making a separate video outlining the “advanced” features of the UI. I’ll be hitting you up for help about it later
Yes, those are the final numbers after they were calculated back to one meter.
Is it still possible to get in on this group buy??
cheers
Please add my name to the list.
Please add me to the list if it is not too late
Would love to know what % of BLF members are here because of the Q8 and GT group buys
Please add me to the list if possible.
Put me down for one. Thanks!
lionheart, probably not all that high of a percentage but there’s certainly a lot of new members. I think the original X6 group buy brought in a lot and then the X6/X5 brought in a lot more. Now the Q8 group buy has brought in even more… seems like when I first joined there were some 7000 members, now we’re up over 20,000. (22,211 as of a few moments ago)
I don’t even know how many members were here when I joined, but the active ones gone up at least ten fold
I’m sure these projects help quite a bit
The real story is in the active members, as of right now there are only 47 members online. Staggering, isn’t it? 22,211 members and only 47 here at the moment. Maybe the Q8/GT threads account for more than I realized…
