[PART 1] Official BLF GT Group Buy thread. Group buy officially closed! Lights shipping.

[JasonWW]

@pommie

Would someone please inform Lumintop that the world consists of more than USA/Europe.
I am number 98 on the paid list and informed through this thread it will probably be late Jan/Feb before they even get round to sending it, yet there are people that are on the over 555 list that have received theirs ???
Not a shot at those members by the way.

Cheers David

As has been said before many times. Have patience. You should probably recieve the light at that time, not for it to be sent. If it hasn’t shipped already, it probably will within a week.

Welcome to BLF.

@DBSAR

So my question is… I will give it another week, and if it don’t show up, should i file a Paypal claim back? I still have not received mine and was one of the first to pay in full & order this light… and seeing everyone getting theirs long before any sign of my order is becoming quite disappointing now… So even in order to get one, do i have to re-order it and lose out on my early sign-up price discount? ) With the crap luck i been having over the last year that would be typical of how things been going for me regardless. :weary:

Your joking, right?

[travis_a]

Now that things are moving when can we expect a updated paid/shipping list for #556 to #1038 so I can get my hopes up.

As much as i wish i did help on this project, i was dealing with life’s set backs & family turmoil to much at the time of the design & development of the GT. I am just a supporting member looking forward to getting the one i ordered. (right now the only major BLF project i have been putting time & work into is the in-progress BLF Lantern project.

[AlexGT]

You are not alone DBSAR

I am kind of frustrated of not getting my shipment confirmation even though I paid very very early, jealous of not having the flashlight in my hand and giggling like a lot of you, regretful to have added batteries to my order because I would have gotten my light sooner, but no way in hell am I canceling my order now this light is special and will try to stay positive until I get it (hard to do)

Hang in there

[southland]

@Buzzing Bulb

I see the ringhole on the left GT is perfectly centered with the button.
I also see the other three don’t?
Is that something you can adjust yourself or is it the luck of the draw how they got there threads machined?

Great photo’s btw

One on left is not lined up either but it is close, about 1cm off. Can not change position.

[Kinniver]

I’m interested! Please put me down for one.

[Neomis]

Just opened Mine, has a little lint or white paper inside the reflector, just one little piece, wondering how easy it will be to get it out. I’m not worried though it’s pretty minor, I can live with it. Also I’d like to know on the pics southland posted, why the lanyard holes are in different spots, on those 4 lights. I can’t see how I would move mine, Mines in the back, so If I use a strap which I am the button is facing the bottom of the light, not a big deal as I can feel for it easily.

[teacher]

Three days??? Try two (2) days!!!

My cousin got his… …… in 2 days.

I have of course invited him down for dinner tonight (Saturday) as long as he brings the GT with him. That way I can at least see & play with one a bit while mine is waiting to have batteries loaded in it ( :person_facepalming: ) for the trip to it’s new home.

He sent me his tracking. Here it is…….

This utterly amazes me!!! From HongKong to a small little town in Alabama in less than 48 hours.!!!

DB Customs mentioned earlier his bezel was on really tight. An adjustable rubber strap/wrench may help to get it off, something like THIS . I don’t recall if he applied any heat to the bezel.

Just a warning, One member mention a screw from the one of the battery carrier was loose in the box. Be sure to check the screws and make sure they are snug.

[Litefighter]

@RobertB

Yes, the XL. You want it to fit snug. Don’t know, but I think the XXL might be too big.

You can see the seams on this, and fits perfect.
