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

Looking forward to your accessories video, Den!

BTW, that’s a gorgeous Sofa Wolf! Perhaps Kane will make a cameo in the video. :partying_face:

Code received for Amazon DE which worked.
Ordered one lantern without batteries.
I am #483 on the list.
Thanks to all concerned.

I got the privat msg from Sofirn after I posted here. So Sofirn seams to be good and are trying to fulfill our needs :).

“LTI mit akku”, from Amazon.de, didnt know akku is batteries in german.

Thx Sofirn

Just got my code and ordered from amazon.de.

Thanks again to the whole LT1 team especially DBSAR for following this through to the end.

Thanks to all

Does this also have a turbo mode?

Can the cap-base be bought separately? or what is an alternative. I need to cover the lantern base when the batteries are not connected.

Actually, the English term "battery" has two meanings in German.

Battery = "Akku(mulator)" = rechargeable battery

Battery = "Batterie" = disposable battery

Seams logical and akku(mulator) made it relevant. Thx

Highly unlikely. I’m guessing it ramps all the way up to 600 lumens. I don’t see the point having a higher turbo being a lantern that’s designed for runtime

Is it too late to add my name to the list if possible? Thanks :slight_smile:

  1. here.
    Ordered via AliExpress, have a tracking number and waiting for delivery :slight_smile:

Really! 974 and no pm

Hi, I’m 426 in the list, got my code yesterday and ordered today at amazon.de.
Thanks to the team

No need for PM if you’re ordering from Ali or eBay.

I believe anyone can order from aliexpress at any time without a PM as long as their name is on the list.

Just an opinion of mine…. having the LT1 available from Amazon with a PM’d code as well as being available on eBay and aliexpress is very confusing. I know this ordering process is completely out of our hands so this is just a statement for future consideration by anyone else involved in a project.

If anyone on the list can order from ali or ebay at anytime what is the point of the numbered list? It becomes a free for all.

Codes are only needed for Amazon but they all ship from China

This is correct. The LT1’s primary purpose is to be ‘enough’ lighting to let you function normally over an extended time. In a situation where normal lighting is not available, this should be enough light to allow it. It was never designed to replace a 200w chandelier.

That said, there are - I believe - solder pads on the driver to let those who want to trade runtime for more light. If the details are not in the instruction manual, dig through the first post and you should be able to find them. You’re not going to hit 4 digits of light, but you can get ‘more’.

Not a bad idea.
