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

Thank you Jason :slight_smile:

I am interested to buy 1.

I’m in for one, thanks!

Awesome Jason, busy busy here and all the time you explain things just very clear and fast!

Will update list later.

I’m really impatient, I know this will be one of my most prized flashlights …. :heart_eyes:
Thanks for this job!!

@ The Miller, can you remove my second one on the list please?

Same as with the GT, I have to cut down on flashlight purchases for a while due to uncertain job situation.

Still want one FW3A and also one Q8, but the second FW3A and the GT are just too much. Sorry for the additional work I am causing.

LT is going over a slightly revised design, we hope for some news next week!

Petroleum Lantern Guy, I hope it will work out for you
I just leave you on this for there is no obligation to buy :wink:
GT will do for that one is expensive and others are now expecting to move up a spot.

@the Miller

We should have rohs and CE marking.
I suggest on the driver as silkscreen or in the tailcap

Can’t we use stickers. On the inside customs can’t see it :frowning:

Right, wouldn’t be any point in putting it on the driver. On the tail cap, butt end maybe, would be the most innocuous.

As I know the marking must be permanent.
My only concern is customs can refuse an import of goods without CE Mark.

On the other hand non of my Lumintop lamps has a CE mark

To open the lamp you unscrew the head so I tought on the underside of the driver where + connect

So if custom ask, open the head.

Hmm tail b¥tt has the switch.
No clean way of adding it on a surface
Maybe print on the box so even if customs opens they’ll see it and be happy?
Though flashlights do not need it

My Solarforce lights have text on the tail cap around the rubber switch boot. It’s small and non-obtrusive, but it’s there.

I don’t know. In the end the Q8 got a marking.
Can we ask Lumintop? They should know

My Klarus G35 has the CE and ROHS below the triangle HOT warning on the bezel. Very small, but it’s there if needed.

How much is this text really needed?

My Emisar D4 doesn’t CE and ROHS text on it. Neither do my Zebralights. Don’t think my Fenix has it either.

My guess is 90% of my flashlights lack that text. Even from name-brand manufacturers.

Not for the US, but other countries have pretty weird requirements.

There were requirements for everything, e.g. bendy bananas

But they finally dropped the cucumber and banana regulations.

Joe, it might help every now and then if you put what country your from in your profile. Is it Germany? I’ve heard they are very strict there about these markings.

Yes I am from Germany. It depends on the person you are dealing with. Some live for red tape, some are more relaxed.
