I know it’ll be a shocker but I don’t care about max output in this light either and hope for the greater good the package focus’s on tint over lumens with weight given to thermal maintenance. Quality here, as it’s an elegant light with elegant UI.
Max output is not much an issue for me as well, fully regulated is probably a better option for a light like this. In the same respect I don’t need a technical UI but none of which will turn me off. I don’t know if the optics have been talked about much but my preference for practical little lights are to be floody. That’d make an ace edc :disguised_face:
What I can promise is that if they get the emitter right and I find it pleasing I won’t do anything to it at all as far as modification goes. Will just use it. If the emitter choice leaves something to be desired then I will change the emitters, but this only to give me a better color and/or beam profile.
This is, for all practical purposes, a custom flashlight. As such, I will honor it’s inventor…. (which is why I cast a vote to keep it styled as originally intended)
I agree with everyone who has expressed a preference for quality of light and overall balance over maximum output. I also think the default configuration with the ramp ceiling set at the max regulateded level and FET mode for turbo sounds great.
I’m really excited about this light and the direcition it’s heading. It was the look of Fritz15’s original design that hooked me, but I don’t mind the design changes at all.
At this point I’m equally excited about Andúril and the prospect of having a FW3A, a Q8, and a a fleet of Emisars (which I don’t yet own) all running the same great firmware.
Not sure how I missed this beautiful light, but I did, wow what a beauty … !
I hope it’s not to late to get on the list for this GB…?
I read $30 each plus shipping, if that’s correct and if the buy is still open I’d like to purchase 2 please.
Nice to see that Lumintop will be doing the manufacturing after having just gone through the BLF GT GB, Lumintop did a spectacular job on that light and I’m positive they will do the same for this beauty.
Thank you and it’s great to see a collaboration between TLF & BLF,
It sounds like I was wrong about a lot of people’s preferences. Maybe they already own Emisars for brightness. I don’t yet. I guess we’ll see what is decided, but I didn’t imagine people wanting a less bright triple.
Yep, that is what the D4 did to this project. I have no opinion on if this is the best direction but it makes sense that it should distuingish itself from the brilliant D4, perhaps also in a slightly more manageable performance and even better user interface.
