*BLF LT1 Lantern Project) (updated Nov,17,2020)

I would be interested in several. Depending on price. Once things are solidified, I can ask around some of the neighbors to see if any of them are interested. We lose power around here with annoying regularity. I have flashlights. But for wiling away the hours with a book; not useful. Head lights; generally too bright and not really comfortable.

Bottom line: great idea.

Heh. This looks like a great idea/item to have. Just saw this thread today. Looking pretty neat :slight_smile:

Wow, sounds great! Definitely in, I can’t wait to try one out camping! Love the choice of 7A3 tint, it’s definitely my favorite so far. The candle/warm incandescent/sunset-golden-hour-like tint, almost campfire-like, seems to be ideal for use in a lantern. :smiley: I’ve been itching to make up my mind and mod one of my cheapo old plastic lanterns to use a 7A3.

What is happening?

Would love to support this!

Make it happen!

Interested, make it and they shall come

If a manufacturer can still be found and negotiated with to build this it will be done. While the prototype is a great success in eliminating the many common problems found in other LED lanterns on the market, we still need to find & seal a deal with a manufacturer to build then into production.

You ought to try and piggy back with The Miller on the SRK project with Thorfire. Two heads, one body. Would be a win win.

it could work, but i am unsure how far he has worked into his SRK project already.

I’m interested in one, possibly more depending on the price point.

Interested.

Interested depending on price…

Interested also depending on the price.

Another interested here.

The talk of teaming up with the q8 sounds worth checking out, thinking logically a lantern and torch could very feasibly share a lot of components.

miller has not shown any interest in adding this to that project, and the last member who was going to help push this in to a production model bailed due to work loads, etc. At the moment its in the air and looking for help to get it going into a production model, while in the mean time the prototype has proven itself over & over again as the best most usable LED lantern i ever used & have.

I would definitely go for this lantern.
