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

Interesting project, I’m interested in a unit. Please add me to the list.

Greetings.

When SB is ready I’ll update OP

Thrunite Titanium AAA twisty…

Gotta love Titanium! :smiley:

AWESOME looking ! You’re very talented, onnha

Yet another AWESOME one… WOW

CRX, I gotta say I just love that MT-G2 in the Ti 4Sevens light! Beautiful!

Thanks mate, you know how I like stupid emitter/ host setups :smiley:
It was originally an XHP50.2 but it killed itself, worked out fine though as I love the MT-G2.

Did you do that Thrunite yourself? Very nice :+1:

I do my Ti coloring a bit differently. I gut the light, run a section of all thread through it and using a washer top and bottom I snug it with a nut on each end. Then I mount the all thread in my drill press and use a propane torch on the Ti while it’s spinning. Easier for me to get a more uniform heat build up this way.

I’ve had the MT-G2 in so many small lights it’s ridiculous! lol A chopped Mini Mag was probably the smallest, using a pair of IMR 14250’s. :wink:

In for one.

1 please.

core list updated

I’ll take one these please.

Welcome to BLF!
Will update the list later!

I want one.
What else do I have to do?

I think we wait patiently (easier said than done) and buy it when it’s ready.

If I understand correctly, it could be a while. Getting things made like this isn’t a quick process.

The way this works is a lot like a kickstarter project… except people don’t actually have to pledge money up front, only interest. Then when it’s ready, everyone on the interest list gets a notification that they can buy it.

Was there any initial estimate made?
Can one be made?
Just a ball park number…

While titanium is durable and looks great, I do have to admit that when I grab a light for EDC I usually reach for aluminum. It may not look as pretty or be as durable, but the lighter weight in the pocket is very noticeable.

Also in a small triple like this one, aluminum conducts heat much better than titanium.

Hmm… ballpark number… maybe 2017. Maybe 2018. Depends on a lot of factors I’m not informed about. Based on past project timelines, I’d be a little surprised if they’re ready in time for Halloween.

Wondering if the weight of the light wouldn’t be quite similar if the thickness were kept to strength parameters? The Ti would be much thinner while maintaining strength, they would probably be very near the same. And the thinner titanium may well release heat quite good, in spite of it’s reputation for not having good thermal characteristics. Besides, it colors up so nicely if you dare run it hot! :wink:

I am not serious, would rather see this one in 7075 and raw…
