Preordered mine right after the code was sent...excitedly waiting for "Giggles" the Giga Thrower...2.5 pounds before the 8 18650's are added...over the top? Probably...that's why it is called being a Flashaholic...
My name is Ed and I have not bought a new light since....2 minutes, 30 seconds ago....
"Hi Ed".....meeting continues...

I think I have enough Q30's and 18650GA's for the new lights on order...

Yeah, I pretty much did the same thing. Down payment on the GT then a few hours later I bought a Q8. Then another. Because. Why. Not?

Thanks to The Miller and Co for putting this together and giving everyone the opportunity to get in on it. Really I'm surprised more haven't jumped on the Q8.... $40 for a light with 6000 lumen, custom firmware, and a neutral tint? Pretty hard to beat.

I'm in on the preorder. Almost skipped it @ $100, but then I remembered the code. @ $40, what flashlight nut could pass it up.

Good to see it works nice!

Wow Crazyeddiethefirst that is an impressive number of cells, you clearly do not have enough lights

Actually,
These are just the cells for 3 different BLF lights....the other 400 lights all have cells in them, and then of course 2-4
Backup cells per light too...
Even crazier is that I have another 12 Q30's on order and right now one vender has 12 Q30's for $44, and I'm thinking...that is such a great deal and I have already purchased from that vendor and they are the real deal so? What to do....

 

[The Miller]

Dang, I would not want to have so many cellsunless I had a bunker to store them in


About the 30Qs, if that vendors name start with a B, they even have a button, are of good quality and are shipped in a protective case making it possible to be received in a lot of countries. Gonna order a few, that button makes them more useful

 

[Crazyeddiethefirst]

I would conservatively say I have the ability to store over 1,000 cells in safe configurations that prevent shorts even when flying in really rough conditions. A fun side note: when you do barrel rolls in a Lear Jet, you can actually hold a beverage in your hand and not spill a drop(yes, I know this from personal experience)...

 

[MAD777]

Well, now we know the "crazy" part! LOL

 

[96transam]

I've gotten the shipping notice for mine. 👍🏼

 

[MAD777]

The BLF Q8 is in the mail to me, too.

 

[Crazyeddiethefirst]

My first Q8 is awesome! Narsil UI is by far the best I have used. Apparently a few people had minor glitches in the illuminated switch, but mine is flawless. I lived the ramping software/driver so much I have ordered two of three Emisar lights(D1/D4 and am still deciding on options for the D4VN...
My second and third Q8's are en rout via air mail too as I type...can't have too much of a good thing....lol

 

[The Miller]

NICE!

 

[MAD777]

You are NICE, The Miller.
Thank you for this and other projects!

Mine came in over the weekend, got some batteries in it today. Gonna go outside & enlighten the night in a bit. Feels petite compared to my acebeam that did yard duty before.
