Convoy L6... XHP70 Beast!

The Convoy L6 or the Thorfire S70? Which XHP70 to get?

Choices, choices, choices.

Bob

I have really liked every Convoy I’ve gotten and the L2 is one of the best yet. So I’m looking forward to the L6 with high anticipation. That said, the S70 is also an impressive light. Simon has his work cut out for him, for sure!

I have not been here for a long time, but I know the answer, get both!!

Great answer! (when you get the wife telling you that you’ve got it made!)

You know I say, you can never have too many XHP70’s and a couple XHP50’s also!!! :smiley: So I’ll patiently wait for the new L6’s! :cowboy_hat_face:

Still working my on that one.

She doesn’t believe me anymore when I say “Just one more” :person_facepalming:

You are not alone my friend.
Even when I explain why “this one” is truly different than my other lights I know she is only hearing Charlie Brown’s teacher… :wink:

LOL I´m with you, boys :wink: It´s hard explaining the fleshl… uh, flashlight needs to your “government” :wink:
Wife and kids think I´m crazy needing more than ONE flashlight! When a new one arrives I tell them “oh it´s just cheap chinese stuff, don´t worry…” :sunglasses:

J-Dub, pls tell us there is an update!
:smiley:

:beer: :beer:

It’s a information by my request (from Simon):

Then we should see some final pictures of the lamp!? Has Simon some ideas about the final price? Will he have an early adopters, group buy, BLF special offer for us?

I would like to order one lamp!

Unfortunately I can not answer these questions.
I also just waiting for release of the product. I just asked a question about the timing of realization of the product.
Maybe J-Dub74 can able to answer these questions.

JDub has been in nearly constant contact with Simon throughout this development process and updates us regularly here in these threads of his. I don’t understand why anyone wanting to know something wouldn’t contact JDub directly instead of adding confusing by getting in touch with Simon on their own. This is what creates the chaos, too many Chiefs, not enough Indians.

I don’t answer the phone when I’m in the shop, really feel like locking the doors as well! Too many times I’ve seen guys trying to work, finishing up a project, only to have to deal with that phone and people walking in and be unable to get any work done. Simon is busy, JDub is our contact, when there is something to be known, JDub will tell us here. Seems simple enough, right?

I know, I know, people are eager and anticipating this arrival. But for any one individual that want’s to take it in his/her own hands and contact Simon directly, there are a dozen more (dozens?) doing the same! Think about it, do you want Simon working on these lights for us, or answering emails?

I just want know more information. I don’t have right write to Simon directly on ali (so in this topic is no update for week)?
Do You think if Simon will not be distracted by correspondence, the supplier will deliver drivers faster?

Sure, you have the right ability to muck up things all you want. (Don’t know that it’s a right….) But SHOULD you? You also have the right to stand patiently in line with the rest of us. Call Fenix, Olight, Nitecore, bother them some, see if it speeds up anything.

This is how delays happen, we’ve seen it all so many times before. We have a contact here through Jared with direct communication to Simon, why is that not good enough?

Common sense has become uncommon. And with that, I’ll defer to Forrest Gump “That’s all I’ve got to say about That!”

Of course you have the right but Dale made a good point. Simon has a severe time shortage and it’s not easy for him to fit emails into his day. Most of his emails to me are sent from his home on his own time in the evenings. I keep Simon quite busy just with my own emails which are almost all on behalf of BLF. I have 15 emails from Simon in the last three days. They do not include updated information on the L6. What has already been posted is about it. I can tell you that the side switch issue has been resolved. Now we’re just waiting on the driver. The original driver wasn’t hitting quite as hard as we wanted so Simon asked them to bump it up. It shouldn’t be too long but I don’t have an exact date. I will post here as soon as I receive any real news about the L6.

I’m sorry.
But i’m waiting too long (that’s only reason) - IMHO.
If product until now is not near to release, why this topic was created in december 2015?
