Hello!
I would also like to be added to the list please!
The light looks very good!
Thank you very much!
Yes will update list soon
And Fritz is finalizing the driver, hope it can be presented soon for it is a thing of beauty!
Its structure is nothing special
That may be true. But, why did you feel the need to make that comment here? Do you wish to elaborate on your statement?
Bạn có thích đèn pin không? Bạn sở hữu bao nhiêu? :innocent:
anyone know how many lumens this flashlight will pump out, or how hard it is going to be driven?
Its structure is nothing special
Wrong topic?
Or what do you mean?
The driver structure is special, The double tube structure is special.
The tail switch construction is special
Yeah the optics are if the shelf, you mean that?
We have to test actual lumens, let’s keep it at 2000-2500

ah yes thanks so it should read: new mode groups: low 12% 7135 - low med 25% 7135 - med 50% 7135 - high 100% 7135 - turbo DD low 12% 7135 - med 50% 7135 - high 100% 7135 - turbo DD low 12% 7135 - low med 25% 7135 - med 50% 7135 - high 100% 7135 SAFE no turbo option low 12% 7135 - med 50% 7135 - high 100% 7135 - SAFE no turbo option If I recall it correctly, there are several multi mode options, but a lot got the FET kicking in. I think all actually, nice with a big light and 1 7135 chip. …
Another small update, the driver is basically done Here are the pictures from oshpark.

At this point I’d like to thank DEL who patiently answered all my stupid questions and consistently gave advice on the schematic as well as the layout of the board

That was all I needed to read.

Nice! Thanks for showing this! Are these boards shared on OSH Park, or you keeping them private?
Great job and thanks for sharing!

I don’t see why not. But unfortunately, the driver is made specifically for the FW3A and won’t fit for other lights due to the second tube. I can add the link to oshpark when the driver version is final
Thanks for sharing Fritz!
I so DIG this pic:
Just dang beautiful!
Sweet
Gonna edit the title and OP later for the unveiling of a new BLF special driver PCB certainly deserves that!

Yeah, it won’t fit any lights that aren’t made for it. But, if it’s available, somebody can make another light to fit it if they want to later. Also, if somebody had a driver fail for any reason (not covered under warranty :smiling_imp: ) they could build a new driver themselves.
