*BLF LT1 Lantern Project) (updated Nov,17,2020)

Oh, I always buy off Sofirn in bulk so whether thereā€™s a GB or not they still give me the best price. I often also get GB prices long after theyā€™ve ended.

I dont know the ā€˜whysā€™ but Im getting the feeling that Sofirn might Regret taking control of this stage when Sig had the system all worked outā€¦ā€¦ā€¦. maybe notā€¦ā€¦ weā€™ll seeā€¦ :person_facepalming:

I think theyā€™ll let anyone order and just look at the list before discounting. Not surprising if a lot on the list change their mind.

Their AliExpress page just says to message with BLF username before paying and theyā€™ll change the price. Kind of invites anyone to place an order

I agree with Sig, I think alot of folks want to see if they have a color option.

Patience?
I ainā€™t got time for that.

Ordered yesterday, received a shipped notification a few hours ago.

Thanks team. :+1:

Just for the record, I just received notification that my LT1 has shipped. It still continues to show delivery by Nov 7- Dec 11th. I bet itā€™s here sooner than that though. It was done using the GB PMed code through Amazon.

Just curious regarding the original BLF Q8 ā€” what kind of significant differences are there from original batch 1 compared to later batch 2 for the BLF Q8?

Iā€™m not quite sure if my BLF Q8 is batch 1 or belongs to batch 2 (I did order quite early so it may be batch 1 ā€” but Iā€™d like to know what are the improvements for batch 2 and later batches)

Here are the latest additions to the interest list and the files linked in post #1 have been updated.

I donā€™t remember all the details, but at minimum the screws were replaced with something harder than butter, and the switch PCB was rebuilt to stop it from dying. I think there were other things too, but I never actually got a batch 1 Q8 and wasnā€™t involved in the project, so I didnā€™t really have to pay much attention.

FWIW, Iā€™m #398 on the interest list and I just got the PM with a coupon code. In case anyone is wondering about progress on those.

Thats grand :slight_smile: Though it does surprise me that as 1 of the main contributors you didnt get a free oneā€¦

Thatā€™s very helpful- I scrapped in at 483 so it looks like Iā€™ll have to wait a few more days.

Looks like they cranked out a bunch of codes late ā€œour timeā€ yesterday as I got mine at #280.

IĀ“m #215 on the list and havenĀ“t got a code, yet. But IĀ“m not in a rush and hope I get a code someday. If not IĀ“ll bring it up again :)

As part of the team back then, I never got a free Q8 either, but I did get a prototype to test and that was way more fun than getting a finished light :slight_smile:

Sorry yeah my bad, never knew you could change the offer period. Made a new offer with 2 day period, no bites on day 1. Yes I put the exact amount as listed in post #1.

Yes added my username and list position number with the offer.

The code I got was for the US Amazon store. Will codes be sent out for store like AliExpress etc for people in the UK etc?
