If all the documents are correct from sender, and the sender location isn’t on a watch list there shouldn’t be any trouble shipping to Israel. I had a friend working an archeological dig in the Negev desert (my spelling is likely wrong) for 18 months a few years ago. We had no problem sending parcels to him, including a pair of C8s batteries installed. Cheers!
Well, I got my tracking number. It’s in Chicago right now, so it’s on its way.
Thanks T_A, Team Giggles, and Neal.
I am #965 on the list n i paid for my GT last Dec i still dont know when i will get my flashlight
Please contact Neal to find out what is going on. There were some orders that feel through the cracks in that super, ultra, hectic time.
To keep this thread from dieing here a question that may also also interest others…
TA, did you do some beamshots with your BLF GT having the XHP70 installed?
I would really like to see this in comparison to the stock setup…

JasonWW:That reminds me. It is important that everybody have their Paypal account info up to date. Shipping address, your name, email and phone number is all pulled from there.
YES! This is SUPER important. Many of the issues from the last batch were caused be incorrect info and having to update order info after the order was placed. This time around there will be a $5 fee for any changes to the information after the order is placed. Also if there are any issues with the shipping or otherwise due to the information not being correct, all associated fees and charges will be the buyers responsibility (there were a few cases of the wrong address being used and the order was returned to lumintop, costing them more then the light just in the combined shipping costs). If the issue is lumintops fault they eat the cost themselves without an issue. I Should add this to the OP when I get some time.
all that was written on the ordering page and therefore accepted by the people who bought a GT
disclaimer:
- Neither Lumintop nor the GB team is in any way responsible for customs duty, taxes, brokerage fees, or any other additional fees. These are the buyer’s responsibility to calculate and pay.
- If the package is delivered with taxes, duties or other fees payable and/or the buyer refuses the package for any reason, a refund will not be given until the complete light has been returned to Lumintop. Note that shipping costs are non-refundable.
- You are responsible that the shipping address forwarded to us via the PayPal invoice is correct. If the light cannot be delivered we can try to resend, but additional costs that may result are on you.
a lot of the cases could have been handled very different by lumintop and the team
saving them a lot money and time
.. just saying ;)
but we should add “we have the right to refund your money and cancel your order at any time if problems occur during the shipping process caused by unforseen circumstances“

I had actually posted some a few months ago. Although I never got a beamshot with the dedomed emitter come to think of it.
Here is the xhp70.2 with dome on:
XHP35 prototype CW in the same location (I can’t seem to find my production beamshots right now):
XHP70.2 GT vs a 1000m thrower, the G36 IIRC:
119 patient days later my light is here. DHL delivered today. Based on everyone’s feedback I was expecting a monster light and it was even larger than expected. Thanks to everyone who helped make this happen.
Ya, it is huge. My family is surprised that I can get flashlight that is bigger than my other big flashlights.
You should hear what my family says about mine…
Yours are custom right? GT is stock. GT might be among the world’s biggest stock flashlight at this moment.

Not brightest but longest throwing LED reflector light I am aware of.

Ya. Is that why NASA ordering more?
I wonder NASA try to custom GT, can they share some pictures? :sunglasses:

Yeah, maybe more appropriately called a searchlight.
There are HID spotlights larger than the GT and my light though, idk if you would call those a flashlight.
For example the lemax LX70 or those big HID searchlights sold in stores which don’t get anywhere near the millions of candlepower they advertise.

Yes, they wanted to try the best commercial product out to see what it can do. This is pretty common as it costs a whole lot less to research with an existing product even if it is not exactly what you need then it does to start from scratch.
Not sure they will send pictures but I can ask.
I do know that they really want the warmest tint they can get. 3000k is the coolest they want and keep asking if I can get anything warmer. For real world throw warmer tints are simply better.

Yep, something like that. This is pretty common in all sorts of research to use the best you can find and then test it before building your own.
I got my first one with batteries inside shipped to the Philippines.
