EDITED: 20 Jul 03 - Thank you everyone who purchased a Micro Illuminator from the Pre-Order List; it is now closed, and the last of lights ordered will ship tomorrow.
/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif

Here's the update:

The first Micros will be ready to ship in a couple weeks. Later tonight I will start running down the Pre-Order List and sending email notices out to the first 50 people in line. That should keep it somewhat manageable for me so I don't screw up shipping too bad.

The real good news is these will come with various rare R4 ranked Luxeons; very special. So, if you're lucky enough to be in the first 50 or so people on the list, you'll get one of these.

Thank you all for enduring the waiting, but hopefully these will make it well worth the drool expended.

Here's some of the Pills aranged with a little ArcMania humor.

So, think about black or pewter and decide what color case yours will be built into and fitted with a glass front window, etc...

The wait is almost over! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon15.gif

Guess I know how my evening will be spent. Now the question is, am I among the happy 50?

Re: Micro Illuminators to Ship Soon

Yes, we came in just under our target price, and using super premium parts. Not just the BIN R Luxeons, but ArcMania demanded a 'special' output capacitor that cost over five bucks alone and other custom parts. In the end, he was most right........

How does the Micro compare to an X5 for brightness and throw? It will have to be significantly better for me to endure the wrath of my wife!

Just ordered one.
Hope this will live up to spec. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
Question for lambda. Is there any chance that the pill can be taken out, to be moved to other host? Is the pill accept voltage more than 1.5? Can this accept rechargeables?

Re: Micro Illuminators to Ship Soon

I think its too late to put your name in on one shiftd...but I am not sure since it said you were under no obligation to buy. I went ahead and put my name on the list thinking it was not too late then read the rest of the thread. If we are lucky, there will be some left overs that we can get.

So Lambda, another question coming up. How much current this thing drain?

sorry for the so many question. Just want to get a little more educated about the little gem. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Re: Micro Illuminators to Ship Soon

This is the first I've heard of these - and would be the VERY FIRST mod I ever bought!! I'm in if there's any R4L's left...... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif I'm too tired of looking at the lesser bins that are out there.
