FW3A, a TLF/BLF EDC flashlight - SST-20 available, coupon codes public

Put me on the list for 1. I would prefer a high CRI version but for this price I canā€™t complain.

Iā€™m in for one!

Wow nice post!
Adding just looks and Narsil with a lot of options as other notable differences.

I havenā€™t even paid for the Q8 yet, and now this? Why are you doing this to me?
Of course I am interested.

Thank you. Very nice message.

Is XP-G3 used in this light high cri version? (90+)

If Xp-g3 yields better results than 219c, this will be a very good light.

What a nice surprise! Please add me to the list :slight_smile:

Iā€™m in for 1

Are these being built to order, or in bulk?

If the former, would there be any way to not have the battery-tube thinned down like that, but be the same diameter as the 2 ā€œcollarsā€? (Basically, just skip that one step in machining-down the tube.)

Gawd, Iā€™d love to have a straight-through light like that. Basically an overgrown BLF348ā€¦ :smiley:

And what do you mean by nw? According to the specs. pdf it can be 4000-5000 kelvin. Hope it is not 5000 :confused:

In the discussion weā€™re having about this light on reddit, fritz15 asked for votes about usersā€™ preference for the emitter. The XP-G3 option, and indeed the current planned emitter is 5000K and 70 CRI (not sure if thatā€™s specified or just typical). That option has no votes at the moment, while the other option, a 4000K Nichia 219C (90 CRI) has 9 votes.

My own preference would probably lean toward a 5000K 219C, but there are often group buys for emitters here and I have a soldering iron.

Hi, so far we are set on the XP-G3 unfortunately. Details on the exact LED will follow.

After a long hiatus from Flashlights it is great to see this project. A ground up, truly custom built budget light. Thanks everyone who is a part of this project. Size of this light seems so nice, please put me on the interested list :slight_smile:

1 please

In for one!

G'Day The Miller & fritz15,

Please put me down for 2 of FW3A flashlights.

Thank you Very Much,

Best Regards,

George

Iā€™m up for one.

Fritzā€¦man that is a nice piece of work right there. :+1:

Millerā€¦cut it out man! This isnā€™t in the budget!

Teamā€¦great work.

Please put me in for one. :person_facepalming: :+1:

Oh My! With a negative power feeding to the LED's via the host, one could use DTP with emitters that don't have dedicated thermal pads. This light's design will open up some nice possibilities. :)

EDIT: Haven't decided if I will join this GB due to the clear finish, but I certainly wish the best on the endeavor. Very sweet light this will be for sure.

I'll take one. Wow pretty!

Please put me in for one.

Thanks
Slow
