(prototype) the GT Mini

I think all the bezels are glued. Nothing else, though.

My button looks like this, what does yours look ?

GT Mini arrived. A couple things I noticed:

-Identical head size vs. D1S
-Lower moon than D1S
-Pretty much identical beam profile, D1S has a marginally smaller spot but wider corona
-My D1S has a bit more rosiness to the beam, GT Mini is more neutral, no green
-Switching between the two on momentary turbo, there’s practically no telling them apart
-Mushy switch cover, but good distinctive click, no trouble doing 5x clicks in a row
–18350 tube is ridiculous

So, if you have the D1S and don’t need more configurable NarsilM and its mode config, the silly but adorable 18350 tube, there’s no need to get the more expensive GT Mini.

I thought they were both $40.

D1S is F-ugly! :person_facepalming: The Mini GT …. soooo cute! :+1:

I bought my D1S from Int-Outdoor 3 months ago for $35 shipped. Looks like the price is still the same.

Okay, I’m in the US and Mountain Electronics sales them for $40. I didn’t look outside the USA for cheaper.

Got my order of GT Mini too (CW & NW). In both cases, the buttons do look like smiley faces (2 “eyes” and a smile).

Also, in both cases, when the tube is properly screwed up, the tube label “GT Mini” doesn’t align to the side button… (more like at a 90-degree angle).
I would like it better when the “GT Mini” words line up with the button, when the tube is properly screwed up…

Yes my gt mini text doesnt align proper either but not much u can do atleast the light performs very nice.

So far no response from Neal with my issue with the light.

Can someone help me to contact Neal or tell me how to get hold of him? Thanks.

It may take him a few days or more to respond. His last post in this thread was last week.

You can also contact M4D M4X. He posted in this thread just a few days ago.

Did you PM him?

I did. But I got a replied says he is not Neal. I guess I got the name wrong. I believe i placed my order through m4d m4x web site. This is not my first time never had any problem before. There is first time for everything. I will wait few more days. Hopefully I get contact soon. It really sucks that you wait for few weeks and the light don’t work.

Here are PM links:

Here are emails:

It’s on M4D M4X’s website, but Neal runs his own “Neal’s Deals” page within that website. Neal is the one who actually handles the transactions for things like the Mini GT.

Thank you. I am sure Neal will contact me soon.

Neal was traveling this week
(visited Lumintop and another manufacturer) and he has issues using VPN and stuff to fight the chinese wall of censorship

he definetely will contact you :)


Thank you for the heads up.

Yeah I know, I recall a couple others saying their bezels weren’t glued. Mine had so much glue that some must’ve dripped down the head of the light due to how hot the box got in transit cause it was all over. A bit excessive lol

Mine was not glued, or so little that I failed noticing it. It did have faulty switching though (light fails to respond to switching action most of the times). I’m in the process of finding out if it is the switch itself or some connection (Neal asked about that). Also in the process of finding out how Neal is going to make it right (as CvonP in the other thread already mentioned about his GTmini without switch cover: “I did not buy a DIY flashlight”).

The Mini has arrived in the swamp—-WOW—Nice Little light——mine seems to be working perfectly— I purchased the warm/neutral tint—doesn’t appear to be quite as warm as the GT at a glance comparison—Holster is very nice,just a little too big—I have something that will fit better I’m sure
