*BLF LT1 Lantern Project) (updated Nov,17,2020)

How about BLF@LTN

to give it some balance

I agree LT is confusing and also missing a letter.

Don’t like lights that someone feels the need to put their name on .

I’d rather it be a BLF light than an ego booster .

BLFCamplite

BLF Happy Camper

BLF Campfire maybe a flame in between camp and fire like ultrafire uses.

BLF Nite Lite

BLF Campgear

BLF Equip

BLF Tacticool Gear

BLF# RCL (Really cool lantern)

Same here, i like this too.

Doobyscoo, how do you do? Interest list numbers 834 and 874 have been assigned to you.

I’m interested, depending on the price.

The ones who prefer warm tint don’t care about 18% less luminous flux. If more luems are neede, it is still possible to increase the color temperature.
I’m sure 2700K will be much appreciated.

/\ Agreed.

I’m all in for 2700K

I’m for 2700K on the low end as long as we get at least 5000K on the high end. :wink: To me, the more “spread” we get, the better. I’d be okay with 2000K + 6000K even. I’m confident that TK’s mixing will make it all look good. :wink:

BLF/AI
Looks like artificial intelligence but it’s Area Illumination
I thought about Artificial Sun Shine but those three letters seem wrong when put together. :innocent:

I feel like I’d regret not getting a second one, so could I add my name again to the list please? I’m already on #431 for my first one.

xikteny is number 875 on the interest list, if the price is not right no obligation to buy one.

I hear you, I am on the list for 3. Your second lantern is number 876 on the interest list.

That second name would be more appropriate if the light had a $1000 price tag and fancy marketing about how it was handmade by virgin monks, with uniquely advanced quantum engineering inside, to cure all manner of physical, emotional, and spiritual ailments. Because then it would be pretty undeniable that we think the sun shines out of our, um, “Artificial Sun Shine”. :smiley:

(At least the part about quantum engineering would be true. All common computer chips rely on quantum mechanics in order to function, because that’s how transistors work.)

I’m sure Ultimate Camplighting Kit is out of the question… :innocent:

SkyLantern has grown on me. You could do one of those fancy logos with “BLF SL” and have a Chinese lantern in between. I tried to make one but I’m apparently… artistically challenged. :frowning:

That is the funniest thing I’ve read in a long time.
Not only are you the smartest person I currently know (as far as light goes)your eloquent writing and sense of humor could propel you into a successful comedy writer career or a stand up comedian.

LMAO!

2700K at the warm end tint would be great, worth losing a little output & efficiency to persevere circadian rhythm when sitting around the campfire but a little additional lighting is needed at night

if i only had the 2700K & 5000K to test, but right now i only have the 3000K & 4000K LH351 series LEDs to test.

TK is indeed a special person……… Ive thought of PMing her and telling her just that but then I thought, No, she would probably be more annoyed than impressed with any praise ……

Logo idea:

- Currently modifying the V1 Prototype lantern to run four LH351 3000K LEDs to do direct comparisons to the LH531 4000K LEDs that are in the V2 prototype now. I don’t have another Q8 MCPCB so i flowed the emitters on four 16mm Cree stars and will work with those to get the V1 as close to the pattern as the V2. (photos of comparisons coming soon.

These are 351Bs and not 351Ds though. The efficiency difference might be quite large, but still interested to see.
