"Krazy", it appears that you and I ordered on the same day, April 18th, 2015 (green Ti). Hope I'm not rubbing salt into the wound but fyi, I received my address confirmation email on June 17th and my shipping notice today, June 23rd with an eta to southern Cal of Monday, June 25th. Note: I did...

Touché! Hoping to be 'hopping' soon!:nod:

Agreed! I ordered April 18th as well, a green Ti and currently still show a May ship date but w/o any address confirmation. Thankfully, I do have my Zion to use at home but look forward to the portability of the GH. Here's hoping!

@killick ur killing me! LMAO and now you've inspired me to name my Zion "wee dragon" but in Korean, making it something like, "Ja-geun Yong". Why . . . cuz.:lol: And now, while I was planning on leaving Ja-geun Yong alone for the evening, after reading of your rollicking good time, I may need...

I only had about 8 hits (not loads) out of brand new RBT supplied batteries, fresh off the charger so I in no way expected them to be totally depleted and wouldn't have consciously run them that low. Obviously not normal, but I don't know what to make of it. RBT asked me to see if this...

Regular preorder #2 reporting for duty! Took a while for my newly birthed Zion to make it from the frozen tundra of upstate NY to the south end of the Left Coast (9 days via UPS), but alas the moment had arrived and upon opening the package, I quickly realized that my patience had been richly...

#2 here!!! Feel like it's the next best thing other than hitting the Powerball Lotto! Was hoping to celebrate Jan 1 with Zion but will now be looking forward to bringing in the Lunar New Year with my new best friend! Praise Jah and RBT !!!

Pre-ordered a GH on April 18th and a Zion on June 28th -- let the race begin! Weather prediction - 2016 first quarter to be very cloudy (but in a good way:))!

Let me also add that the Xtar VC4 is another top all round charger for around $22 delivered. The Xtars and Nitecores are probably the top 2 selling chargers globally. Just make sure you buy from a reputable source as both lines are widely counterfeited. They both should come with counterfeit...

Oh good, it was after hearing about you, I became mildly concerned!:)

Thanks Pak! Still think it would be a great safety/convenience feature for those of us who might end up carrying our Zions around without having to go through the extra step of removing the batteries. Seems like it could be a real issue for some as even RBT commented: "The master power switch...

Anyone know if this master power switch was ever added to the final production model? Haven't really seen it mentioned since RBT first announced his intention to do so back in June but I may have missed it.

The XTAR VC4 is capable of charging batteries considerably faster than the Nitecore D4 with a choice of either 500mA or 1000mA compared to 375mA or 750mA for the Nitecore. For optimal performance, the XTAR requires the separate use/purchase of a 5V 2.1A USB wall adapter. Both units are widely...

Shipping internationally for the Zion has apparently been limited to the first 100 orders (the Zion 100?) and was set to end June 21st. The RBT website (http://www.rastabuddhatao.net/apps/webstore/products/show/5734628) also states "U.S. Only". I'm sure at some point international shipping...

Haha, now you've got one on me, totally unfamiliar with that one! Well, anyway, the important point is that you guys know your stuff and have the backgrounds and experience to prove it and it shows in your interaction with this community and all the progress you've made with the Zion and its...

Japanese actually, meaning "improvement" but more often interpreted in terms of quality initiatives as "continuous improvement". Popularized by Toyota and a component of many Six Sigma, Lean Manufacturing and Total Quality Management systems. @thekarmawhore & @RastaBuddhaTao - you guys rock...

I asked Trevor long ago and he replied that neither the metal accessory cases nor the leather sleeve will accommodate the GH with the silicone tip installed since the tip came after both case/sleeve designs were finalized.

Yeah, that makes sense since they'll most likely want to hold off until the production design changes are finalized so that they can promote it accurately. Great team RBT & TKW!

Yay! I needed this to uplift my spirits after the despair on the Grasshopper thread! Show'em how it's done right RBT! Looking forward to my Zion! :clap:

I was wondering when someone would bring this up! Don't forget their attempted Kickstarter campaign for a skateboard lock (unsuccessful with only $152 raised from 5 backers). https://www.kickstarter.com/profile/2133086817/created. They did launch it anyway independent of crowd sourcing...
