My question is which GT is being used in this video, the first proto type with CW emitter or the NW that is now being shipped?
Rather a poor show that out of all the members whoa have received this fine flashlight about the only non member video available is from Germany in German was hoping to see lots of pics and vids yet part from one video and the team members offerings we have seen nothing
so come on guys put us poor souls out of our misery and get some beamshots posted please
Hmmmm…… That is a very good question BCW………
Easy for you to say, but for us with 5 thumbs and no tools, that is not an option!
You need to look on YouTube Buttkicker… You obviously have not been keeping up to well.
Hopefully you will soon have yours & can whip out some beam shots & a video to redeem us.
Any Australians got a shipping notification yet?
It’s a production light with 4000k emitter.
Wonder how he got his so quickly if he’s not part of the original build team.
The videos make it look warmer than it actually is in real life, at least with mine it does.
There…fixed it for you

Thanks. I didn’t see that message posted by M4D M4X.
I was wondering if he was sneaky or got one via the states.
It’s doubtful. There have only been 2 big shipments and they were to the USA.
Neal said he was gonna send another big shipment at the end of last week, but since no one has reported any tracking notices, I’m guessing it wasn’t sent. Hopefully it will get sent today or tomorrow and folks will start getting notices.
This always cracks me up!
This is an important post, so I’ll repost it here.
Great Show!
thats a regular production light like all others shiped last week
no one expected the delivery so slow and scattered over the list :(
as far as i understand a lot reflectors produced do not pass QC and have to be redone
(imagine "some" other brand would just ship imperfect lights to rush onto full price selling... )
we all can be happy to get nearly 1000 lights after the planned 555 for a bargain!
but we need to pay with our patience (and still will be delivered before all others)
btw - Julian did not get it for free!
(the calculation has no room for free lights)
i really hope you like his video and help him with a thumbs up :)
PS
i just read a guy is making english subtitles :)
Comparison, GT with CW XHP-35 vs. GT with WW XHP-35, very cloudy night, light sprinkle coming down….64ºF with 75% humidity. Water tower is (still) 1.9 miles away. This time I set the 2 second timer on the camera and held the light about 8’ away to the right of the camera so the beam shot isn’t looking down the beam of light.
Base shot, (all 3 shots are with the 70-200mm f/2.8L IS lens at 200mm, ISO1600, f/4.0, 0.5 sec in manual focus from the 5D MkIV, Med Jpg SOOC)
CW
WW
I have 8 matched LG M25 18650 cells with solder blobs, I used one carrier from my light with the rear 4 in the WW GT, used the empty WW carriers in the rear of each light. So each light is running on 4 matched LG M25 cells.
Thanks for the beam shots…
However, i notice the street light tint changes from one pict to the other, meaning your camera is adjusting the white balance differently for each shot. That renders the comparison difficult if not meaningless?
