Ordered, answered the mail with forum name and phone number, custom survey done. Now I’m waiting

Custom survey? I went through this exact order process but never saw anything about a custom survey.

Survey is not a part of the ordering proces, Marting posted it several pages ago, you click his link and answer what would be the best declared (CN22 form) value for your country…

Correct. I'm guessing he is looking at "Post #3":https://budgetlightforum.com/t/-/42408/3

His name shows as number #62 but request #64 on that list.

The problem is that Jinx (England) is not the same member as Antiparanoico (Uruguay)

Edit, after further checking member Jinx is member Jeansy look here:
https://budgetlightforum.com/t/-/4891
https://budgetlightforum.com/t/-/7318

Here is his spot on the list...

62 Jeansy 1st #64

There were 11 errors with BLF names out of 555 PMs for the GT. The following is the list of errors. I see Jinx/Jeansy on the list.

ERROR: can not find user Frankie
ERROR: can not find user Gigathrower
ERROR: can not find user Jinx (Jeansy’)
ERROR: can not find user junkie
ERROR: can not find user KAWIBOY 1428
ERROR: can not find user Lyubo

@ARsee

#473 - ARsee (2nd Flashlight)

Paid in full

Return email confirmation sent to Neal

The Miller

Note that; My second light order comes from being on the first list totaling 555.

22 people requested a second light on that list. I am #16 (or should have been) of the 22 people that apparently received notification. I did not receive one.

Would you confirm this for me please? Thank you.

Are you saying you did or did not get the second PM to purchase the second light at $111???

Checking the PM lists. ARsee received the PM for ONE light.

There were not 22 people receiving a PM for TWO lights.

Thanks Mr. Scott…. I was just curious. Cause I was # 24 on that list & he was far below me…. definately not #16.
Take care & thank you for the work you do here!! … :+1: …

Hi, could you please put me on the list? What else do I have to do to order one BLF GT?
Thanks in advance!

This is all you need to do. Payment details are not set. Once production starts and it gets close to buying time you will get a PM telling you all the details. What store to go to and what special code to enter to get the discounted price, etc… We may even need to do a small deposit before that. It’s still not known.

So for now we wait.

One month has passed and I don’t see my name in any list… :weary:

[JayWallis]

Please go to the first page of this thread and use control + f and search . You are on the list 1192 Giancarlo

You still have a little waiting to do.

From what we have heard, it will probably be January when you will get the PM.

Right now the first 555 are paying and shipping might start next week for them.

Then a week from now the next group from 555 to 1000 will be paying.

Then there is a gap from 17th to 30th (roughly) were Neal will be gone for the holidays or else the Lumintop factory will be closed. Then in January, shipping will continue and the next group from 1000 and up will be paying.

I’m in the 555 to 1000 group but I suspect my light won’t ship out until January. So we are all pretty much waiting.

Hello all,

Exciting times are ahead. Just wondered what chargers you all consider to be good ones for the Panasonic 35E batteries. I found this 8 port charger on the internet and wonder if anyone has any experience with it. I am thinking an 8 port charger would be good to charge all the batteries at once.

Again thanks to Texas Ace and to Neal for all his hard work and the others on the development team for the BLF GT. I will await January with great anticipation.

Specifications:

• Input – DC 12V 4A
• Output – Ni-MH 1.5V, LiFePO4 3.6V, Li-ion 4.2V / 4.3V / 4.35V
• Output Current – selectable .1A / .25A / .5A / 1A

Features:

• Intelligent lithium ion battery charger
• Digital display with charging indicators for each channel
• Compatible with most sizes of cylindrical lithium-ion batteries ranging from 10440 to 32650 as well as NiMH and NiCd AA, AAA, AAA, C, D, etc
• Automatically stops when charging is complete and prevents batteries from being over-charged
• Features reverse polarity protection if you accidentally insert a battery the wrong way
• Manufacturer Warranty

What’s in the box:

• GYRFALCON ALL-88 digital battery charger
• Standard USA power plug
• User Manual
• Warranty Card

Your thoughts or on maybe this should be a new thread.

The GT is basically 2 lights in one. The stock version that can blast a medium sized hotspot over a mile OR a xhp70.2, 6000 lumen light that can blast a big hotspot half (or more) that distance. I’m sure I can find a use for one of those versions.

I think I remember reading that TA or someone else put an XHP 70.2 in a prototype. Did they get a lux measurement? If not, I hope that the first person to put one in Giggles gets good lumen and lux measurements and post’s the results. I think that 6000 lumen and 500k lux would be an amazing light! Damn, I think I need to order another one!

ive got a modded tn40 that does 8700 lumens, and 500klux
its quite a sight
i would think the gt should do over 500klux, with the XHP 70.2, but im no expert

I have the All-44 and it is a very easy to use and accurate charger. I think this would be a great choice. HKJ did a review on this charger that you should take a look at.

That’s the charger I was going to get. But decided I didn’t really need it at the moment. After the holidays I’ll pick it up, once I get my play money replenished.

Here is a full review by HKJ “I will rated this charger as a very good charger,” tha’s all I need to here from HKJ

Sounds like a TN40vn. If I did not already have a T6vn I would get the TN40vn.

I bet Giggles will get well beyond 500k lux now that I think about it.

[teacher]

elrcpilot…… Those are supposed to be very good chargers. I almost pulled the trigger on one the other day but looked at all the other chargers I have and did not…… :person_facepalming: …
HKJ rates them very high as an excellent charger.

If you want a reasonably priced analyzing charger a LiitiKala Lii 500 is a good one. There are a few others also.
