I would like to purchase the BLF GT Giggles as well as the Samsung batteries mentioned. Is there another waiting list available to be put on or is it available to purchase right away?
Hi and welcome joann. The group buy on this light has expired. Undoubtedly when the orders for the group buy are fulfilled the light will be available to purchase from re sellers.
I’m sorry, but it is not available for sale right now. Existing orders are still being fulfilled. Once the light goes for sale to the public, Madmax might have a sale on them.
Hope you are well? I’m Tom, a Researcher for The Gadget Show on Channel 5, Europe’s biggest weekly technology review show broadcast in over 100 countries worldwide. I am currently putting together some shoots for a brand new series which will air in Springtime this year. We would really like to do a feature around the The BLF Giga Thrower!
We are going to do a survival special, where all 4 of our Gadget Show presenters will be going into the woods using the best survival tech on the market. This is the perfect platform to feature the BLF Giga Throwerwith its incredible 120mm reflector throw! We understand the flashlight is phenomenally powerful so it will be handled with great care when we feature it on the show.
We have a date in mind for a couple weeks’ time so I wanted to see what the availability of a sample is like and see if you may be able to send some out to us? As soon as possible would be great so we can get used to the tech. The show will air in the UK in early April.
Let me know if this sounds possible and we can go from there. It would be great to speak with yourself directly about this.
Thanks for the offer, I will keep this in mind if lumintop is not able to get him one in time.
Also, everyone else, please do not contact him directly about this, it could get very confusing very quickly.
If you have an alternative option or would like to offer your own light please contact me so I can keep everything straight and coordinate it with lumintop/Neal.
I know it’s an entertainment program but did noone see the episode a few years ago on torches? Its a bit fuzzy in my memory now but I remember the rating system was a bit rediculous.
I’m already predicting that the BLF GT will get a low score because it’s heavy and “the beam of light is too small”.
Edit to add: I didn’t mean to sound like a dick, apologies. Just wanted to flag that the BLF GT is a super specialised light, the issue for me is highlighted as follows: “We are going to do a survival special, where all 4 of our Gadget Show presenters will be going into the woods using the best survival tech on the market”
So, I’m assuming a situation where there’s people using the GT to navigate woodland and a shortge of range because of trees, so no chance to “stretch it’s legs”.
