I was recently involved in a GB (of similar cost) where a significant number of lights were delivered with 1/3 or more less lumens then spec, “NW” that looked blue, battery carrier issues, flickering, or just plain DOA. And the claimed 55 deg thermal management was absent on all, lights hit 100C in short order. I’ll take extended wait times over that crap anyday.
Sounds like Haikelite MT09R. I didn’t pull trigger on it because the GB was such a hurry and the review sample of XHP35 HI went missing like act of GOD, ya, right! But I still think the 15000 lumens for XHP70.2 is very good performance.

Me neither, because it seemed somewhat a bit overvalued and I can not forget the problems with the previous GB organized by the same factory http://budgetlightforum.com/node/50791
Following what is happening in the MT09R, I am very happy that I did not pull trigger
Not that I have received any tracking number for my GT, anyone sends their GT to Vinh to be modded into CFT90 beast?
I wonder how much it cost if send him our own GT? Vinh is selling USD675 for complete light though.
Vinh himself is still impressed with his own mod. That is one badass self endorsement that everyone believes and it is selling like hot cakes now.
I’m still waiting for my second battery carrier that was missing from my order… Hope Neal will reply (I even offered to pay a bit more to solve this quickly). Sucks to have an incomplete GT, I want to play with it while the nights are still completely dark over here.

If you want to use it without the 2nd battery carrier, you could probably make a dummy carrier with cardboard cut and rolled long enough to push the first carrier to make contact with the head. Positive and negative contacts are on the same side of the carrier.

Or you can ask for a short tube.
Perhaps a short tube and second carrier for compensation.
No email or PM but I just received a text message that a DHL package was picked in HK today. I do not think it could be anything but the GT so there is some hope.
I just sent him a mail
I hope he answers and that the answer is coherent
The last one I received when asked to verify the DHLAWB because the one I received was delivered in Dayton, OH – US (my address is in Uruguay) was unacceptable

If you send in your light the cost is $490 shipped (If you live in the USA).
G.sintornillos that reply from Neal is almost as bad as the guy who’s customer service rep reply was something like: Dear all, could you mind to keep wrong flashlight?” That is a classic lol.
Sorry man it appears that it costs way to much money to send a flashlight to your country so we just sent it to a stranger in the United States. Cheers!!!
You deserve some good luck finding its way to you, I really hope you get it!

Neal also gave me the track number dhl that was received in the US
G sintornillos I think you need to leave Neal’s original message to you in your last post. It’s funny and deserves to be laughed. The situation isn’t funny, but his explanation to you sure as heck was.

Probably not a good idea to post people’s email addresses in a public forum. But I agree, it would be worth archiving the reply for posterity, just with personal information blurred out.

The last 50 can use M4dM4X’s “BLF GT trackingnumber”:
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScjN4NVqYTBrrYgXJOpmpxt-T1lJATC...
form again? Or is it too early?
no reply from Neal…
I got my tracking number, best news of this week
Finally my GT is on the way…
I hope it will arrive in good condition, with cells included.
Just got my tracking number from Neal. My flashlight is in transit from Shenzhen.
Thanks Neal.

You can ask Neal for your tracking number.

Tracking number received – and it’s a Royal Mail number, so should be easily trackable once it’s in the system.
EDIT: Just appeared on Packageradar a minute ago

Ah. Packageradar. A new one for me. Mine has just appeared too, and it’s also a Royal Mail number. It’s finally making its way here!
If you make the payment on December 2,2017. Why hasn’t it been sent?
Read post #1. The explanation is there.
Texas Ace Lumen Tube and JoshK Sphere calibrated with Maukka lights
Click this to go to signature links. I'm still around, just not reading many new threads.
If I filled out Neal’s survey a couple weeks ago, should I fill it out again? Just wondering if they’re two separate surveys.
Thanks for taking care of everyone, Team Giggles.

i have not received tracking information from the last batch - asking me will give you no answers
also repeatedly sending the same mail for 3 weeks nearly every day “where is my gt?!“ does not ease neals work (and blocks my inbox as well)
Neals PayPal is still blocked, Lumintop want to get rid of the stock ...(https://m.de.aliexpress.com/item/32857004396.html?trace=storeDetail2msiteDetail&spm=a2g0x.12010611.0.0.58b91c17zMdI0r)
every alternative to Neal would cause a significant higher price
he is desperate to find a way for the remaining groupbuy participants to get their Light for the nice price.
Your patience saves you $$
all new deals are also posted here: deals.m4dm4x.com
if you do not find what you are looking for :
ask MARTIN@M4DM4X.COM - i will save you money!
So that was my last Neal’s Deal’s, nothing more with neal and lumintop for me….
I maybe lost the first payment but I found better to lost the first payment than receive a damaged flashlight
