I ordered 1 from fasttech to see how the light stacks up in person. If it impresses me I’ll be upping the qty to 10. One thought I had was that if it’s a plastic lens of a hard size to replace elsewhere, will Brinyte ever offer replacement lenses for sale?
Ok folks. Pill pricing will be around $10 a piece. It seems they can not be shipped out bare, they need a red or green LED and driver. I am working with Brinyte to see if this is fixable, but it may not be. I have thought several times that they could be ordered bare, because that’s what was said. Post 1 and 2 updated for clarity. If this changes anything just shoot me a PM or post in this thread and I’ll update the numbers.
Edit: It seems some miscommunication exists between parties. The brass modules will not be bare, I wish I could change this- but it is not so right now. Also if we reach 50 total lights of any color- of the complete light will sell for $22.59 (white) or $20.59 (color). This makes it a lot better. Sorry for the initial confusion.
I didn’t see the lens comment yesterday. I’ll check with archer (brinyte rep) and see. I will say after this, I don’t think I’ll try to line up another one. I don’t know how those guys/gals do it who organize these all the time.
Gear Best will not be stocking the momentary switch. I have put in an email this morning to brinyte about the modes. The Gear Best listing is confusing, so I asked what they’re sending gear best. The listing also says 1 mode for the color modules, and mine was two. I’ll let you know what I hear.
I just noticed that the red aand green will be a couple bucks cheaper. Since I’m planning on using them as hosts anyway if red or green get close to 50 in addition to the white I may switch to the colored ones instead.
If I understand correctly each type of light doesn’t have to reach 50 for its best price. 50 total lights sold, in any combination of white/colors, gives us the lowest price on all of them.
That is true. Gear Best confirmed it today. So yes, if you are planning on using it as a host then get the colored versions. I still have not confirmed the modes of the drivers, if they are different from what I reviewed.
I’ve probably exchanged nearly 20 emails/PMs this morning alone. FYI Brinyte said they’d be putting this light up on their aliexpress store and they could customize drivers and offer additional stuff. I don’t have the link yet, but maybe they’ll sell the bare pills? I don’t imagine the price would be as good, but it’s something to check out.
Wow, this is first zoomie that really grabbed my interest. I super very tempted. Great video on this light btw! I love to grab a bowl of cereal and watch your reviews.
It’s a lot of work to do any kind of gb but especially for multiple choice items. Any who wish to complain should try doing it first. Much appreciated mhanlen.
