Awesome effort from all involved it seems. Thanks OL for making it happen.

Now for a driver, whatever that is, and some other bits probably.

My Grey SKU 88007127 Pill is 30.88mm . The Copper Pill should fit.

Your pills not fitting would be a deal breaker for me, unless we could get a press fit copper slug. But I think it’s a moot point as neither of the lights being sent to OL is grey. I’m still in either color.

Hmm when did you order it?

Copper pill:

Two year old HD2010 pill that I based off the copper pill from:

Grey HD2010 SKU 88007127 2 months old:

Those images are horrible! Must be using a Nikon! :wink:

LOL!

I CK My TMART Acc . Ordered 10-31-2013 . Shipped ?

Watch out, a Canon fanboy! :smiley:

I ordered mine at 11/29/2013, probably from a different batch.

Not sure what they’re sending out these days…

Thanks for putting this together. I have two already, but would probably be in. :slight_smile:

Yes it is a Lottery . Also the lights OL tests may not be the same as what is shipped for the GB .

Very true, but I will endeavor to control that if at all possible.

:smiley: Good luck on that. Your best magic wand will have to have the dust cleaned of it I say in jest.
This is my official entry for winning one of the three lights being sent out. Thanks.

OL Thanks for the GB + Good Luck. The problem is Tmart may not have 100% Control over Build Quality + Performance, or will they be CK + Testing every Light?

I have the gray SKU: 88007127 on 12/21/13 from the US warehouse and it’s the larger pill.
The threads looked the same to me, what do you think??

The thread pitch? Yeah I think they’re very similar.

Are these a standard Metric size?
I looked at charts and it did not make sense to me.

No. Manufacturers make there own size threads up for I assume to match whatever material they have.

I am in for one. Thank you.

Well, samples are definitely on the way, but it will be the "normal" shipping, so this will all come to a halt for a couple weeks or more, till they come in. At least I can compare build quality and do measurements. It's a base to start with and if all the lights can come from one run, then they should be a little more consistent.

They may be 0.9mm but I couldn’t get a precise measurement.

If there’s enough interest, a second HD2010 copper pill run may be viable. Thanks OL for your efforts.

I think this is by far the best way of figuring out which light will be the best to buy.
Other than taking a little time all questions will be answered once they arrive.

Thanks for all you time and effort in trying to make this Group Buy work.
