Yes, good choice I could also troll my wife with that name… 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
Seems like there are a lot of folks that like LT for a name but we have been told they want to avoid any conflict with the GT makers. Legally, I dont think there should be any problem …… I mean one is a Giga thrower and the other is a Lantern…… I mean look at all the different car names with Z or X.
If I remember correctly, LT looks too similar to the Lumintop-produced GT, and this lantern isn’t being produced by Lumintop either (which could also be abbreviated LT).
Some members (myself included) Find “Lantern” to be a boring name anyway. I’d personally take just about any other name over just “Lantern.” This is also why there are a lot of Lantern-plus names that have been brought up, like Ultimate Lantern, Sky Lantern, and the various number + Lantern names.
DBSAR has a neat logo for the “BLF SARLantern” name, by the way.
I am amazed at how many votes that ” BLF Lantern ” got for the name. Even though some have mentioned a shorter name would be more practical. I don;t know how difficult it will be for the factory to produce the production models & etch the name on the lantern, i guess it will depend on them, as i’m unsure if the name etching detail level affects the final pricing of the lantern. Will have to wait for Barry to comment on that.
Those are good suggestions. BLF ULT would be good, too. That would lower the anxiety of those of us who are OCD (3 letters on each side of the old school lantern), as well as the L44.
Now if we could just add the Aux board that Lexel drew up with balance resistors and LDO for multiple color Aux LED’s. That would make this the Ultimate Lantern.
