Yes, I just got finished sending the email a few minutes ago.
Turned out the team was split down the middle between the BLF / GT / Lumintop tailcap logo and a Lumintop only tailcap logo.
So we decided to send both to lumintop and see which they preferred. So it is a bit of a mystery at this point as to which will end up on the light. I would give it even odds as to which one they pick.
Guess we will know when we see the finished product…

I remember a long time ago, buying a Mercedes Benz without the badge will cost you more (Badge-delete option), as it will require extra manpower to work for this request, haha.
Fast forward to 2017, the MB/AMG dealership will de-badge the car free of charge for its new owner.
Assuming the light doesn’t come delivered with the usual myriad of QC/production/design/engineering problems associated with most BLF derived lights of the past, I may be in for large quantities of 50 or more. I could only sell them as unbranded lights. It wouldn’t be worth my time removing branding or the logos that are being discussed.
Like was said, if you are buying that many you can contact lumintop directly and see if you can work something out for the next batch of lights.
Part of the GB agreement was that lumintop would get it’s logo and the word “Lumintop” on the light, so we will not be going back on that now.
Oh well, for all intents and purposes, for Lumintop the bottom line is business, and anything that they’ed believe beneficial can be arranged.

Indeed, in those kind of quantities I bet you could work something out.

Giorgoskok says that is indeed the Mateminco/Astrolux 30k+ lumen light.
Of course I would!
You’ve seen the rainbow finish I want, right? I could totally go for just the pink/purple bit on the front end, two colors repeating in a flame pattern:
The combo might work especially well on a car, due to the metallic paints they use where it can be both pink and purple depending on the angle of reflection:

Yes, look close and you can see the colors overlaid onto the image. Plus things never line up on parts that twist together.
No, but that Mateminco prototype earlier was. Here’s the original image:

Well, the GT is officially VERY close to being released!
This info is fresh off the email client and is subject to change but…
The first 500 can expect PM’s with purchasing instructions within the next week or 2.
The next batch of 500 will follow shortly after that.
For everyone over 1000, the next batch is planned for early next year, exact timing and quantity will be determined by the response to the first 1000.
No word on when the GB will close yet but it could be any day now, so if you want in, better to get in sooner rather then later.
