Mine did the same. I figured it had to do with the massive piece of glass settling after heating up/cooling down. It has been about –5F outside when I’ve used it, coming back inside it makes some clinking noises that definitely startled me the first few times.
lol ! ive been out the past few nights in sub freezing weather getting, and posting beamshots !
im doing all i can boss! :+1:
im with you though, id like to see more
suprised im the only one , besides dale, posting pics
Yes, mine did that the first time I took it out of the box, and has done so a couple of times since as it went through temperature changes going from the car into the house. I haven’t noticed anything detrimental occurring to the light but it did concern me at first.
anybody know where to get their hands on a handle like this, let me know…looks like it would be a slick setup for the mildly heavy blf gt :+1:
and yall think the gt is heavy, this thing clocks in at over 8 lbs !
but man, 4.5 mill lux, and 7500 lumens, me likey
what would stop somebody from putting the same hid and driver in the blf gt i wonder ?
If I remember right, the reflector for an HID needs to be designed different than an LED. That, and you would need to machine out the head to accept the HID bulb, and find a way to mount the ballast
I get an occasional “TINK” sound that is faint, doesn’t sound like breaking glass at all. mine does it inside at 70 degrees F or out side at –10 degrees F.
while im on the subject of handles and mods, i got to looking at some extra rubbermaid lids i had laying around
heres what they call a number 2, fits the bezel perfectly :+1:
works as a nice diffuser also
Just to be clear, I was not suggesting another thread.
I was / am suggesting a Replacement Thread & CLOSE THIS ONE. .

Sure there could be a “Team Account”.
Pick a “Team user name”, set up a “Team email address”, set up the BLF account, and each “Team member” has the account & email password.
Then there is not the problem associated with one person having control of the account and no timely needed updates if that one person is not around…. as is the case at the moment.
