when will i get the Christmas presents for my family members? :P

Creator J on April 26

Any word yet? I would really like to get my hands on the Trioh...

Creator J S on April 18

3weeks is probably not so unusual when the samples ship from China.

As long as there is any progress even slow I don't mind waiting a few more seasons until seeing the light.

Creator Sam Stone on April 18

I definitely cannot receive any package sending to me from June, so could you provide your best estimation of the delivery time?

Creator Thomas Yeo on April 18

@Greg Hinzmannn It's been almost 3 weeks since your comment, I suppose the lense should have already arrived by now. Could you please proceed to give us some update on the situation? We are coming direly close to the 1 year mark since project was successfully funded.

Creator James Petts on March 26

Update?

Creator Joe on March 7

Is the battery going to be replaceable..!? Lifetime warranty..!?

Creator James Petts on March 5

Can we get an update, please, Greg?

Creator Kee Ken Fong on February 26

Hi Greg,

Like many others, I was immediately caught by surprise when I chanced upon your idea of what a beautiful daily-use flashlight could and should look like. And like many others too, I did feel at some point that I might have wasted a good load of money (plus international shipping) on a project that seems to have kicked the bucket from the start when you started missing the proposed delivery dates.

Lately however, I've been following up on your updates and comments as they appear and realised that I still very much would like to have a Trioh in my house, probably as much as you are trying to get the best product out to us. I'm certain that I'm not the only one who's still really eager to see you bring the project to fruition (sans the vitriolic expectations and comments) and we are willing to wait it out for you to work your magic on the final products before they are shipped.

Yes, I would love to see more photos. Yes, I would love read more about the details. But in the spirit of things, I (and many others, i hope) fully support your endeavor and trust that you'll be able to turn this into another Kickstarter success story. Thank you for your efforts thus far and please do keep us updated as best you can in this project.

Looking forward to the Trioh, as I had been all these while : )

Cheers,
Kee Ken

This is seriously beginning to look like a badly managed project.

Creator Jan de Vries on February 11

When does Spring 2013 begin?

Creator Ken Workman on February 10

I'm frustrated that Greg has not seen fit to provide any information since January 22nd. He promised an update by that weekend (Jan 26/27). Surely, asking for a few brief words is not unreasonable and would not involve a great deal of Greg's time.

Creator Brad Dancer on February 7

Didn't realize I was in a hurry. Simply like an update, no big thing, I am interested in the process and what's going on. Thanks for not jumping to conclusions.

Creator J S on February 5

Whats the hurry? Im sure Greg would have told us if the T2 parts had flaws. He also has a day job in the night and on the weekends. For $98021 on the side I would not write many updates too. My time is worth way more.

Creator Brad Dancer on February 4

Any update yet?

Creator J on January 31

Where is the update? :(

Creator J S on January 27

Cool! Can't wait.

Creator Brad Dancer on January 22

updates?

Creator Andrés Vielma on January 17

Any new updates?

Creator Daniel Philipps on December 28

Hello Greg!

Thanks for some great updates! Looks likes this is gonna be a great product! Take your time!

Creator J on December 27

Hey Greg,

Thanks for the updates! Please provide us an update at least every 2 weeks! Any communication helps keep backers calm, whether you're waiting for parts from the factory, waiting for someone to contact you, the items have shipped, etc - literally any news and communication goes a long way to make us happy :)

Creator J S on December 18

Come on. Give him a break. Its just one month over the estimated delivery date. With a few exceptions most Kickstarter projects take about 6 months longer than expected.

Creator James Petts on December 17

Greg - please give an update. You're two weeks out from your last one. Have you not followed up with the delayed shipments?

Creator Chee Soon Goh (BRUNEI) on December 16

hm.. when can i actually get this stuff??? It's DEC now :)

Creator James Petts on December 14

Can we get an update? I'm wondering if this is yet another KS project down the crapper....

Creator J S on November 22, 2012

Happy Thanksgiving.
Hoping all is well.

Creator Sam Stone on November 13, 2012

Hey Greg, how's everything going with the production? According to your recent update, a final prototype would be ready in February right? Do you happen to know when the shipping begin because I might be out of state next summer. It might be good to know that I could receive my Trioh before that time.

Creator Brad Dancer on October 29, 2012

how's it going - (thinking of this project during Hurricane Sandy here on the east coast)

Creator Brian Ross on October 10, 2012

Looking good! Thanks for the latest update. Sounds like things are all tracking forward nicely. I know these things take time to get right. Thanks for your attention to the details, Greg! Best of luck moving through the upcoming phases.

Creator Charles A. on October 9, 2012

@Mitchell I'm afraid it’s going to be a long wait till we get an update worthwhile. I have expressed an understanding for delayed projects but my concern grows each day because Greg in his updates acknowledged that he is a designer not an engineer but unfortunately, the setbacks are squarely engineering not design.
"As I had mentioned in an update a while back, the factory had some issues with the design of some internal parts and I had an engineer help to resolve the issues."
“This process doesn't happen quickly because I am not an engineer and I am doing this as a solo endeavor. Whenever these issues arise, I have to source some help.” Unless his resources are free, this project will be hemorrhaging cash.
Engage your backers Greg, you may be surprised at the feedback you can receive here but more importantly, your backers will be more inclined to defend your work because they can understand exactly what issues you’re having. The sporadic updates you’ve given come as a result of being pressured here to update and not very organic given that this is your idea that you want the world and backers to see. My comments here are deliberate to motivate you to engage and keep us updated. I continue to wish you best of luck!!
Kind regards

Creator Mitchell Davis on October 4, 2012

Any updates?

Creator Charles A. on September 25, 2012

Hi Greg,
Please consider posting an update more frequently given the challenges you're having. I've backed you since day one and have been asking about the technical details but still no information. I'm well aware that there is a chance that you may not deliver on this project but at least providing a better communication platform makes it easier to bear with the progress. You may or may not have much to update but at least tell us what you worked on since the last update. As I mentioned, I remain optimistic but it is dwindling.
Cheers.

Creator J on September 18, 2012

So any update at all...? Seems like nothing has been done yet :(

Creator Charles A. on September 10, 2012

Thanks for the follow up Greg!! Although sad to learn, it unfortunately does answer my first question but I do understand that a fixed date so far out would be a moving target. That aside, I remain optimistic and am truly looking forward to a robust update later this week.
Cheers!
