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

I think we’re mostly waiting on communication delays lately. Has been hard to get a response when people are busy trying to catch up from CNY.

Hum, I thought about that too… CNY always brings some “delays”!
I hope “you” manage to get some news soon from LT to boost this project :wink:

I’m holding to ask for a second one (or even a third… :person_facepalming: ) till we know the “final” features of this light!
Let’s see if April brings us some good news :star:

I’m interested in 1. Thank you.

Before we go too far here shouldn’t we address the problems the GT group buy is having with Neal ? Here is a quote from the first page:
“Exciting news!
With the active support from Neal we finally found a new partner for our project and the progress is far enough to reveal the name: Lumintop”

I just hope by the time this project is ready to go that the team has found someone to deal with Lumintop and we can avoid the total mess that the GT group buy has turned into.jmtc

I didn’t even know Neal had anything to do with this GB. Does he?

Due to the huge size of the GT, it resulted in a lot of problems such as getting reflectors and shipping it. A little light such as this one is definitely not going to have those type of issues. Hopefully Lumintop can crank out these little suckers at about the same pace as Thorfire did with the Q8, which is about 500 a week.

Int. in two lights please! Hope this goes through!

It might take a few days or a week before the list on page 72 gets updated since it was just updated earlier today.

I’m surprised the list in post #1 hasn’t been updated yet.

I’d give more answers, but it’d only be speculation. I don’t have direct contact with Lumintop, and haven’t seen most of the communication behind the scenes.

As far as features go, I’m not sure about some hardware details like emitter type, but the basic host design is unlikely to change much and the firmware is mostly ready. The UI is Anduril, which is sort of like an evolution of Narsil, so it has lots of features. Smooth ramp or a mode group, both configurable, with lots of extras like blinkies and special modes. I should probably put a summary in one of the first-page posts.

One light for me. Thanks

PM me (a team nember) if you want me to update the sign up list in post #1.

(I hope I don’t regret offering. :confounded: )

Sign me up for 1 unit! :slight_smile:

Without this UI it’s just another light. (OK, it’s got a lot going for it but imagine if it shipped with the S42 UI!)
The hobby has not been the same for me since Liteflux disappeared, I feel that Anduril has got us right back where we need to be.
Simple is great but some of us like the ability to do more than just turn on the light.
Thank you for all of your effort!

For the list update: I’m #378 in the OP and I’m still down for 1pc.

I like the “Shiny raw machined” look in the first 2 photos, but I don’t really care for the “dull bead-blasted” look in the last two photos.

Please add me to the interest list for 1! Thanks!

+1…. We seem to have the same taste in tints. :+1:

I think 4000K makes sense for a thrower, because it has less blue light to scatter and obscure the target. It also makes sense for a lantern. But for a more traditional flashlight I prefer things in the 4500-5000K range.

Any updates on the status of this project?

Are we still looking at a 2018 release?

Here are TKs recent answers to my similar question :wink:

please, add me on the interest list.

tks

Please put me in the list. I am new to this forum and I am not sure how to proceed.
