As far as i’m concerned it is at least 5 years, since i work at another company now for 5 years.
It might be that regulations only got stricter lately, since i’ve ordered some 30Q’s from GB last year which arrived without any problems in my mailbox [and with free shipping], when i want to order them today, now i have to pay a shipping fee for lithium cells!
This might be an interesting link as well:
Please put me in for one. Thanks.
I bought all my 18650s locally now, a Samsung 18650 30Q cost only $4 each same for LG HG4. The vapor craze is making the high drain high quality cell easily available. Ordering abroad from china was the only way to get a good cells with cheap price but not anymore thanks to vapor popularity here.
I looked on flashlight Wiki but couldn’t find it. What is narsil?
This link will give you a start blinker….
.
Edited to say…… look close the English is in there with the Chinese.
Thanks teacher. That’ll keep me busy for a while.
I only got on board with BLF about a year ago. When did work start on the Q8 project?
Your welcome. I just did an edit above saying, “look close, the English is mixed in with the Chinese”.
If I can find an all English version I’ll post you link to it. I know there is one out there, I just can’t remember where at the moment. 
This might help a bit blinker…… it seems to be in all English anyway. More later if I can find the one I think I remember seeing.
Or hopefully someone who really knows will chime in. 
WJ, the Q8 project has been a work-in-progress for over a year. Getting close….
@ blinker ………… I am just gonna keep updating this post every time I find something on Narsil that might be useful to you rather than start a new post each time. Hope it helps you……….

Disclaimer: I have no idea if what is listed below will be the exact version of Narsil used in the Q8.
But it should give you a bit more info about Narsil hopefully.

My work is done…… thank goodness JasonWW stepped in with some Great Narsil Info
Well the start of this thread is like the start of the project, looong time.
Yes there are two three/four page Narsil manuals made, anf Joechina made a nice cheat sheet.
Gotta combine it all with the general Q8 manual so it can be printed and put in the Q8 box.
Just got in from mowing. Thanks again to “teacher” and “The Miller” for your help. BLF forever! Is the Q8 going to have ramping like those in the video?
:+1: …… Yes, from what I understand it will have the ‘ramping’.
Been doing some readin an a studying. I need me one of these. Can I get on the list?
Yes will update list later
Ramping is default, the cool thing of Narsil is one can set it up easy to their liking so several modes are also possible
Since there are so few videos of narsil, I’ll post up one of my L6 vids. The Q8 doesn’t have a tail switch, but the rest is the same.
I’ll try to do a video of going through the setup menu as it’s a little tricky until you get the hang of it.
BTW, all my picture links are dead due to Photobucket so videos are all I have at the moment.
Nice! Thanks!!!
nice narsil explanation!
thanks :beer:
wow, very nice light there! Me want.
