Please donāt tell me what to be, itās hard enough to be who I am as it isā¦ With all the comercials, politicians, religious people telling me what and who to be.
Thatās my point exactly. The price has to be competitive with the D4 when compared against the same emitter options, especially since this has one less and the X-PL HIs are a significant portion of the cost of a D4 with them.
Evidence so far is they donāt pay much direct attention to this thread.
Something that was said recently by someone on TLF who is in contact with Lumintop gave me the impression they did at one point in the past look at this thread, but suffered a debilitating eye-roll injury as a result.
Personally, I still donāt care about the color of the clip, as long as it is not something that is going to rust if whatever the coating is wears off, but the apparent protrusion of the clip ring from the body should be obvious as undesirable.
If that is final, I will still buy it, but be a bit disappointed at the need to sand down the outer diameter.
Youāre probably right that they havenāt paid much attention to this thread. It gets hard sometimes for even BLF members to follow it everyday.
Hopefully, there are no glaring issues, or dealbreakers with the samples. Hopefully, the clip fit, and it all fit. Hopefully, production and sales will start soon. Hopefully.
āI hope I can make it across the border. I hope to see my friend and shake his hand. I hope the Pacific is as blue as it has been in my dreams. I hope.ā
Thatās probably a good thing. I worry a little about the mental condition of anyone whoās followed this 8,000 post āadventureā. (Myself included.)
That said, thereās a lot to be gained by them having a regular on here provide them a direct weekly TLDR. This may already be happening, but it sounds like thereās pretty big lapses in communication.
While I prefer the original bare metal clip, having a painted black clip or one where the ring sticks out slightly from the light is a minor issue to me.
I think itās silly when I see people posting they wonāt buy the light because of it. But to each their own.
