:laughing: :partying_face: :smiley:
I just got so excited for you, thats great! lol.

Mine too- accepted in NY, expected delivery 12/7! here we go, people!

I have droped my ft03s few times on concrete after receving it 2 days ago …loll now it got few dents on the bezel and its very hard to screw and unscrew the bezel.
Looking for SS bezel now for ft03s any help.
Thank you

Ok i will have a look .thank yoy

I found SS bezel for ft03 .wil it fit ft03s?

:weary: :cry:

I’m even in NY, no update

yes, on the Aluminum version it does. i have both and their interchangeable.

You will get it today! you have to. Yea, weird your in the state of reception and im next door and i get it first. its coming to ya!

Artiet59 i got the copper ft03s i am pretty sure it will fit if it fits Alumium version.thank you

Mon. Dec. 7 the FT03s SBT90.2 has arrived. It looks great and seems to work fine. You instantly notice the difference in weight. With a 5500mah Vapcell it weighs 30.65 oz. compared to 14.06 oz. for an aluminum FT03 SST40. It will need to get dark here before I can actually give it a good check out. It does look extremely nice in the daylight.

Thanks again freeme.

Awesome! I’m at work, can’t wait to get home

Soo… mine hasn’t shown up. Said it was on track to and supposed to be received by 9pm, but doesn’t say “out for delivery” on the usps tracking site either. Hopefully tomorrow. Arrgghhhh! As long as it’s not lost in usps oblivion I’ll be OK .

On an unexpected note - my ec03 green body with sst40 came in today! So that’s awesome! Wierd though that I ordered that and cu sbt90 ft03 in same order, and the ec03 shipped the day after my ft03’cu sbt90 but ec03 came in first… confused and sad… kindve… lol.

UPDATE - 12/8 @ 10:40am - its still sitting in NY according to usps tracking. USPS has at least acknowledged it will be late, so i’m thinking if i am lucky i’ll see it by Friday. but i’m never lucky, so we will see.

Anyone else get theirs in? pictures? :wink: i understand once you get it you’re probably not checking the thread anymore :partying_face:

I ordered both as well, wonder which will show tracking first. Still neither have showed up
I’m like 1/6 for getting BG delivery ontime :weary:

That is annoying, i feel that pain except the problems i have are mostly with AX, not BG. BG has been good to me, with this ft03s Cu being my first “late” delivery out of about 15 orders…

AX on the other hand… my god. My last two orders are out in transit, one has been sitting in Georgia (allegedly) since 11/30, and the other (i ordered 10 days after the GA package) is in NY waiting shipment… but has been there for going on 4 days… My concern with those two orders is they are parts orders = small packages = easy to lose.

As a reference, i ordered (2) 21700 to 26650 converter tubes from AX (obviously a small package) and it took 3 months to come in. Im convinced it was because the package was 3 inches cubed and weighed less than a half a pound. an easy box to get lost in the front of a truck… Of course i didn’t order them by themselves because i knew it’d be a shipping issue, but thats how AX shipped it…

jp9mm - this will be your week, sometimes we get those orders that just “show up” in the mailbox, its happened to me once or twice, maybe that’ll happen to you? Like tracking didn’t follow it correctly and it shows up unannounced :laughing:

EC03 Showed up today :partying_face:
No sign of FT03, has yours updated?

Nice, glad to hear it.

Nope, I have had absolutely no update since 12/6.

It arrived in NY 12/3, was supposed to be delivered to me on 12/7. USPS tracking says it left NY 12/6 and there has been no update since then except to tell me it will be late…

Last night I was finally able to take out the FT03s SBT90.2 Copper for a short time. I was pleased. The throw is a little more than the SST40 version but not really a big difference. The spill area is brighter with the 90.2 which I didn't know if I would like until I got into a more wooded area. There is where I was really impressed with it. You can see a wide area close to you but it isn't so bright as to blind you letting you still be able to see things at a distance.

The new knurling has a lot better grip than the old style, I am immediately a big fan of the new style.

The drawback, as already documented, is the greenish tint of the SBT90.2. Once you start actually using the light you won't hardly notice it but if you are used to a 5000 or 5700K emitter it will take a little getting used to.

I like the weight but WOW it is heavy when you have been using an aluminum FT03 every day. For those of you waiting on yours be sure to comment on the weight when yours finally arrives. Hopefully it will be very soon. I feel for you.

It is a beautiful light

Well mine just showed up, first time i’ve been surprised by usps. Only scan was at the local shop before delivery today.
Overall very nice looking but there are numerous small blemishes. Was hearing a lot of crackling from turbo and cooling down but loosening and tightening the lens ring seemed to fix that.
I’ll have to compare to some other lights at night but was expecting more of a wow factor from the output indoors. Maybe that’s just what months of sbt90 lust brings…
I like the knurling a lot more and will make for a nice display piece in the living room

Damn, glad yours came in! I’m worried mine is lost, still no update. I was impressed with my aluminum ft03s, guess it depends what you already own. After getting and dedoming my mf02s xhp70 my sbt90 ft03 seems to standout less, but for the size it still impresses me with a wow factor, but I’m kind enough new to this, before I got my first ft03s my best thrower was the x9l, so big difference.
