Along these lines anyone found a good base for these yet? The base doesn’t have rubber and can easily get scratched when camping. Wonder if there is a foldable base like this collapsible shade. Looks great BTW.
Another hack here is the orange rubber ring for protection? The groove on the head of the lantern light is way too shallow and the rubber ring slides off at the touch. If it was meant to protect the lantern it’s not doing a great job. I just found an unused silicon wrist band and wrapped it around the top. Maybe one for the base will help too? It holds in place way better than the orange one which pops off in the case everytime I pull it out to play with.
May need to find one for kids on the base.
Hope they change the design for V2 of the lantern.
A good base will make it more stable too.
A ranger station had those silicone wrist bands for kids and told me to take one, so I got a glow in the dark version. Works great and makes less noise if you knock it over.
Hi everyone, just got my LT1 and I’m loving it. Thanks to everyone involved in the process.
I’m working on a detachable base that doubles as a bumper. This is the first version as I tweak with the tolerances (I have a very cheap printer that isn’t set up very well). It retains access to the tripod hole. I’m thinking of making it click into the ridges instead of being help in by friction. I’ll possibly do some different types of bases as well. I’m an amateur so we will see how it turns out.
This would also work well printed in TPU for the grip and anti-shock properties, but I do not have any TPU filament to test. Once I tidy things up I will share the file here
My JBL case is coming in the mail (I got one without the extra pocket at the top of the lantern). I’d love to test it for you but it’s coming from China so it will take a very long time :cry:
Sorry if this has been asked before. I have seen the post from ToyKeeper saying there is no commercially available firmware update kit. Is there a guide on what we need to convert and use the D4V2 update kit on the LT1, since the pinout is different?
I brought a (thrift store… Joby GorillaPod Original Tripod for point and shoot camera,it works perfectly at the base or side screw ,Need to pick some wrist bands to better protection,I agree orange rings always slides out ,every time I pop it out of my LTI case(JBL speaker case)
