The chat on his site requires a Fakebook account.
I don’t have a Fakebook account.
If I have to open an account on Fakebook for Neal to attend to me… “Arderá Troya!” .
it is true I have burned up a couple by slicing , just takes a tiny speck of dirt on the blade or a tiny bit of thermal paste, any kind of minor contamination on the sliced surface and they just burn up
Neal didnt respond me either after many days still no reply to question, was kinda interested getting this before holidays and all but if cant get answer then i didnt chose to buy someting else not from him sadly…
That’s what I bought for it. They are rated 35A and they are known to actually achieve that number. There’s also the Samsung 30T but I like to always use the largest cell the light can handle. They are a bit pricey though, I just paid $9.99 plus $5.00 s&h from vapewild.
Edit: Not sure if this light can take anything other than a 26650, I just assumed as most do.
Updating post #386
My NI40/SBT90.2 of the first batch stock “is not ship because of the shortage”, order #8378.
In mi account that order continues appearing FULFILLED.
The tracking number that appears corresponds to the previous order (received).
Two last PM sent to Neal, on December 6 and 12, with no response.
Neal was in BLF 4 hours ago but did not deign to respond…nor correct the order status in my account.
Summarizing…
Without any change in the situation.

For now I have lost interest in this light and it is on the shelf until work is done on it.
I hike every night with my friend Randy and his Dog Max. Randy and I both love Turbo when on the hiking trails. I get enjoyment for 2 minutes of Turbo and then it is constantly stepping back up to Turbo every 60 to 90 seconds.It becomes Very annoying.
My Mateminco MT35[FT03] XHP50.2 NW has Narsil. I disabled the step down. The light never got too hot even in August.
When my NI40 is able to do that, I will enjoy it more than the MT35 because I like all the other aspects of the light.
I had filled out the form and submitted it, expected a notification when the lights would be ready again. Never happened, which is ok because I too have had so much problem with Neal getting it done that I no longer care to make a purchase if he’s involved. Sad but true.
So I’ll be looking for the 90.2 and will build my own Stalker if/when I find the emitter. In the meantime, the one I have here works pretty well with the original SBT-90. (built a driver for it, hated the UI)
Ran it 10 minutes on turbo tonight, changed battery and repeated.Not even close to hot. Temperature was 25F/-4C.
In the warm weather I can do the same. I have a high tolerance to heat. With this light by the time I pass the 5 or 6 minute mark the battery is certainly weakening along with the output, resulting in less heat.
