Lumintop BLF GT94 ( 4 x SBT90.2, 1.65mcd ) NOW AVAILABLE @ Neals: code NDGT94 gives $ 150 off

I bought the GT4 and am sticking with it, because I’m not too crazy about insane throw distances. And the GT4 already has enough for me. Plus I think XHP70.2s are more efficient than SBT90.2’s.

It’s changed. I have the FF5 and can confirm that the light is two mode (42w and 100w), starts on HIGH, and you can go back and forth between low and high without having to turn off and re-strike.

Is anyone getting one of these in VOBs hands for review?

Pretty sure they will be sending him one as well, could already be on the way to him.

Any word on a price range for just the head?

Has it been confirmed they will offer just the head alone? I don’t expect much of a discount for the head alone, it is like 80-90% of the costs.

According to Tatasal, yes.

For me, it prevents me from having to buy an extra 8 batteries, as well as easier to travel with in a case. Having interchangeable heads is quick access to the best of both worlds.

One more, for the road eh…:

:open_mouth: :open_mouth: It’s so beautiful!! Harry!! don’t look into the light!

I will not be able to purchase the GT94 until income tax return but can’t wait to see a video review to come out comparing it with the other GT models. What a great beam shot picture :smiley:

Eye candy never hurt anyone as far as I know!

In a “shipping” while, the GT4 and the GT94 will be in the hands of Texas Ace and we should see both in action as his schedule permits.

That’s awesome! Thanks for the info

Can we get this please?

No one has received the GT94 to compare to the GT4 that I am aware of yet. Mine is in the mail I think though and I will do the technical testing. I generally leave the beauty shots side of the review to VOB as he does a better job then me and I tend to be more focused on technical aspects personally anyways.

My guess is that it will be able to run until LVP without damage just like the GT4 as I expect the same or a bit lower overall power draw from the GT94.

Runtime will depend on what brightness level you run it at and what batteries you use. Basic math, brighter light = more power = shorter runtime lol.

Running either this light or the GT4 at the top of the ramp is going to be your best bet for general performance. It should have no thermal issues that way and runtime will be greatly improved over full turbo and still be plenty bright for almost anything.

Any estimates on throw?

Lumintop measured 1.6Mcd, works out to around 2500m according to someone earlier IIRC.

Sounds reasonable to me.

Which emitter’s more efficient? XHP70.2 or SBT90.2?
All of my experience w/ the SBT90.2 is that it’s insanely power hungry and generates a whole lot of heat, whereas the XHP70.2 always surprises me at how efficient it is. 3-4 of those is way better than 18 SST20’s.

2,569 meters was mentioned by someone a while ago in this thread. I am visualizing beam performance and beam profile that has more throw and less lumens than a certain very large 18 x XHP35 flashlight, yielding more length and less width of the beam. It is going to be exciting to behold!

18 SST20’s?
