I got one of these Pelican 1610 coming today from amazon to protect it. They had a special for 139.99 a couple days ago, so I’m sure they go a lot less than this. This is prob a little overkill, but I’ve waited over a year for this light and like to take care of my lights. I hope to get a second GT when that time comes, so there’ll be room for that.
Yep I keep some of my most favorite lights in Pelicans because they are that good. I’ve tested them on the river, underwater, and with a cell phone in them too. No leaks. But I have two of the original Defts, one with the original OMG lumens pelican. In another Pelican case I keep a Firefox III and Firefox IV HID, and in another I keep a couple of my most favorite lights, the Neosekian Legion IIs modded with WW xm-l2 emitters. The Pelican 1610 could prob fit all of those other cases, and it’s got wheels and a pull handle, lol. It’ll be interesting if it’s as big in person as I am expecting. I know it won’t be the tallest but it may be the heaviest of my lights. We’ll see soon!
hope not, but I am waiting for 6 weeks now on some 26650 batteries, send with registered mail from China.... but some things go fast, you never can tell.
My GT left Cincinnati @ 6:22 a.m., and arrived in Austin a few minutes ago (10:37 a.m.). I live about 75 miles west of Austin, so I doubt DHL is going to dispatch a driver just to deliver my light today. Does anyone know if DHL delivers on Saturdays?
I also don’t see an estimated delivery date on the DHL tracking site for my package.
Nothing really too out of the ordinary in the garage. I have an Audi in there I think is pretty neat. I’ve always have been a vw audi guy. But would love a new vette or gt350, we can dream. It’s just a hard sell, getting a pure sports car if you have wisconsin winters and a family. But I do have a remote security cameras in there so I can spy on my house. But lots of cool things in the house. We’re pretty big into home automation and gaming/vr at my house. Lots of interesting lights, some really big ones. I have an old 7D that’s big and a bigger mag mod that uses 7 26650s. I’ve always been drawn to quality stuff, not necessarily the most expensive. Some lights are super expensive because they are more works of art. I like that but I want them to be functional and perform at a higher level than . If anybody getting their GTs today doesn’t have a Q8 with the sweet user interface, you are going to be in for a treat. Easily one of the best UIs ever, thanks to Tom, TK, and all the others that made it happen.
