Thanks,

ordered 1 NW version. Now have to find a WW XHP70.2 led with good CRI & output, lol.

Yes, Lumintop is working hard to not repeat the mistakes of the first group buy.

This one is moving much smoother due to learning from those mistakes.

Ordered 1 NW and will be looking for a better 4000k emitter - any suggestions on where I can find one

If you find one in the EU, plz post here!


I would also like to see some beam-shots of XHP70.2s with 3000K or 2700K… if someone has a link? Couldn’t find anything… 80CRI would be OK, I think. 90CRI would mean loosing too much lumens….
Maybe I buy a change kit and try to open one of my GTs… If I would have to swap the LED anyway, let’s get some really warm light color 8^) …. I don’t want to use the greenish NW stock version, when even my CW GT70 has a more neutral tint…

I bet someone else can find a better option on aliexpress or something but here is KD’s 4000k: http://kaidomain.com/Cree-XHP70_2-P2-3C-Neutral-White-5000K-LED-Emitter?search=xhp70.2

It is a 5C so it will have some green in the tint though.

For the USA there is this 4000k P2 that I have used in the past. : XHP70B-00-0000-0D0BP240E | Octopart

The first place I look is MTN Electronics since he’s in the US and shipping is fast. He does have a 4000K, but I’m not sure of the tint code. You might ask him.

Yep, for those in the USA MTN always has some good LED’s as well and you can add some other flashlight stuff to the order while you are there along with supporting the BLF family.

Awww crap. Paid full price for the spare carrier. Oh well. I think they deserve a little something for all the hard work. Can’t wait! Wait… how long is shipping to California?

They are supposed to get the LED’s in late this week or early next week is the last I was told. Once that happens they have to get them reflowed to the mcpcb’s and then they can start packing orders. I would guess they will start shipping in 2-3 weeks.

Once shipped it generally only takes a few days for DHL to deliver to the USA.

Nice! Just in time for daylight savings!

Just have to find 999 more interested people,lol

Received the email saying the NW conversion kits are ready. The website allows me to order the CW kit as well… are those ready? The email didn’t explicitly say so I just want to double check :+1:

Yes, both kits are ready, technically the CW kits were ready a little bit ago but they wanted to wait until they had both tints before selling them.

Awesome! Placing my order now for a CW kit :beer:

what is the expected run time in hi with the conversion kit?
can you use the short tube and long tube together to create a 3S carrier for more run time?

You will need a coupler.

The GT70 runtime (conversion or not) will depend on the brightness level.

On moon mode it should last months.

On turbo it might last an hour or 2

At the top of the ramp it should last around 2-4 hours

Anywhere in between, will have runtimes between there.
