lol, I think all of the names that got 1 vote were by the person that coined the nameā¦ Me included. :smiling_imp:
BLFCamplite, simple.
Looks like BLF-Lantern is the popular vote.
Is there a set time for the vote/poll to end?
September 31st.
Mark it on your calendar.
22 votes for BLF Lantern!? Come on guys how about a little imagination! How boring!
This poll has ā¦ 58 choices? Is that right?
I donāt think I would even attempt a poll like this in a āvote for oneā system. The math just doesnāt work out. But this sort of poll is perfect for approval voting (vote for one or more).
With almost 1000 requests on the interest list, Iām hoping we get a LOT more votes in this poll. Perhaps the tables will turn once more votes come in.
Iād really love to have at least three choices in this poll (First, Second, Third choice). I agree this is too much for a āvote for oneā poll.
FWIW
I know yall never listen to me and I thought about not posting at all but I just cant help it.
The way I see it is this was DBSARās baby and although someone can and should appreciate suggestions when naming a āchildā It is still the parent that has the final word. Jeeez, look at all the suggestionsā¦ā¦ Surely DBSAR has a favorite?
I think he ought to have the honor of choosing a name for it.
Okayā¦ā¦. I said it.

I wouldnāt mind if he chose the name. I get the feeling he doesnāt want to though. But if he did, Iād be all for it.

I do understand your thoughts on that.
I never really looked into the name and what would be good for it. I did like the BLF-LT with the logo one & Lantern symbol and border similar to the GT, but because the GT was built by Lumintop Barry mentioned it was awkward for the factory to use that logo because of its similarity to the one on a light built by a different factory. Neal contacted me recently asking about if we had a factory & engineers working on the lantern, project, as he expressed interest in this new project and having Lumintopās factory take on the project, but we had already handed the project production to Barry and the factory that build Sofirnās lights. (with Thorfire)
As for other alternate names for the lantern, I thought of others like: BLF-Lantern with the lantern logo either before or after the name string, but i still agree with some that ā BLF Lantern is very generic, and needs some kind of model designation. I also liked the one another suggested: āBLF-SARlanternā , or āBLF-ULTā as another name, ( ULT meaning UltimateLantern.)
so in reality the top favorite names i like in row of fave to last (excluding BLF-LT) is:
- BLF SARlantern
- BLF-ULT
- BLF-Lantern (logo)
-?
-?
-?
Here is a rendering of a logo engraving i thought of recently, what is your thoughts?
so let it be written
so let it be done
Here is an edited version of the logo idea:
How about āGeorgeā, so itāll be less confusing to all my other lights?
I think that first version looks much better.

BLF illuminator 18650

Yes, good choice I could also troll my wife with that nameā¦ She calls for me (George), a lantern named George on an RC car appears in front of her, here, job done, now leave me alone
I want to vote for BLF LT but there is no option
Missing BLF SkyLantern (Or, in Chinese, BLF 天ēÆ ).
SARLantern makes me think Search and Rescue Lanternā¦ which is kind of neat.
