I don’t know if it’s been mentioned yet but I was just messaging with a fella at Lumintop about the delay and some other confusion over the GT70 conversion kits, they are so great at Lumintop and great English to boot, and through this conversation I was told that the BLF GT70 is now available in NW, BLF GT70
I was also told that the conversion kit won’t actually be ready to ship until Sept. 25th, so if you’ve paid for the kit and noticed that all you’ve got is your PayPal receipt this is the reason why, I was told they are behind and will send notices via Leo with receipts by that date and start shipping.
So I went to look and confirm the GT70 NW is there and sure enough there she is, so here goes another $220 and hopefully no more glitches, and this will now make a ridiculous total of 6 GT’s and only one GT Mini, I’m trying to cut back ?
I’m sure not holding my breath that a GT70 in NW will ship this week or even the next as it seems Lumintop likes to put things up for sale that aren’t always quit ready for shipping.
This is most likely already old news since I seem to always be the last person to know of such things but I thought just in case I’d mention it again, … ha ha
Yeah, I kinda saw this coming but thanks for confirming it.
It is much easier for them to ship things in batches due to the convoluted shipping system they are forced to use, so they do tend to put things on sale ahead of time so they can minimize the number of batches.
Last I heard the XHP70.2 LED’s should be arriving this week (need to see if they have show up yet come to think of it) and they will then have them reflowed to the mcpcb’s and finally they will be ready for shipping.
I am hoping it should be ready by the end of the month.
Yep, sounds right to me TA, after you get used to how they do things and just accept it along with just forgetting you just bought something from them, it’s not so bad until it gets to be 2 months down the road and you forgot so well that you really forgot they have my couple hundred bucks,
Saw KB1428’s pic above and thought it was a pic from my place, I’m getting way to many lights.
Buying odd ball presents this year for Xmas. And this NW is mine and I’m done buying big and going back to my budget lights, I hope if there’s any budget left.
Cool, thanks for the update! I did the order on mobile and had a few false starts getting the code to work, so I was a bit worried my order was screwed up!
The GT70 CW is awesome, I tested it and was amazed. Now, can someone make me a handle and battery compartment similar to the maxabeam? Oh,and something to plug it in the car 12 volt socket
They have not informed me of the end date yet but I expect it will not be that much longer.
I don’t generally ask too many questions about the end date in hopes they forget about it lol. The downside to this is there is not usually much warning when it does end.
If I had to guess I would say that 2 more weeks should be doable and possibly longer but I simply don’t know at this point.
