Is this the final design of the FW3A ? It is different from the pics in the first post
I think itās just a first prototype, not a final design. If I understand correctly, the finish is probably not right on this one, and perhaps other details too.
At least I like the profile of Fritzās design better, Iām not so fond of smooth curves. (nice clip though!)
I signed on very early in the process, and had not read this thread for quite a while. Countless posts of people who want in, or who want out. Sometimes without looking at the title of the thread. A few days ago I did an inventory of lights I have, and lights that are on their way to me. Looking at the bottom-line I asked myself: do I really need one more light?
One glance at this picture made it perfectly clear: Yes, I do!
Thatās funny. I prefer the curves. To each his or her own!
Regardless of the shape, Iām looking forward to this light!
same with me! 
The smoothness of the tube at the end of the clip helps make the light not get stuck on your clothes.
Exactly. That first design will always catch the edges on something in your pocket. Definitely prefer this latest picture look.
Cool. Please add me too
Thanks
In for 2, if this is still going
Too late to i get in on this?
There seems to be an imbalance now that one side has a gradual slope and the other side has an abrupt edge. Maybe both ends of the inner tube should have matching slopes? That would give it more of a coke bottle shape or womanās shape, which is sexy of course! Lol
This project is going to take awhile, so the GB should be open for a few more months at least.
Please put me down for a second light ā¦
I would like to buy one of these, please add my name to the list :+1:
Thanks
completely agree with you regarding the design
I liked the original design, but the updated one is certainly growing on me.
Lumintop send out the samples today
The ledge at the back end is a functional part of the design, and shouldnāt be a smooth slope. Thatās where the fingers catch to provide something to push against when pushing the tail button ā cigar-style grip. Itās a bit like a tactical grip ring.
I agree. The tail end doesnāt need to have a long sloped curve like the front, just radius whats there. I personally think the curves makes it look much nicer, and less like a cheap budget light.
