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

Thanks, TK!

Did you like the look of the FW3A clip on the D4?

This voting means that if you vote for them to have last place, you’re voting that any other option would be better. That’s… how ranked choice works. Just because you had them on the list doesn’t mean you’re voting “for” them.

Yep… it is easy for any of us to go brain dead & get forgetful of even the basics when we get “burned out”.

Get rested up…. you don’t want to end up ‘burned up’ from terminal “burn out”. :+1:

Exactly.

For example, consider this ballot:

  • 1st choice: 219c, LH351D, XP-L HI
  • 5th choice: XP-G2, XP-G3

This ballot says: Anything except XP-G. It votes “for” the first three, and votes “against” the last two.

If someone wants, they can further differentiate, stating which of the first three they like best or which of the last two they dislike most, but it’s not necessary. The ballot style allows a lot of flexibility in expressing one’s views, and the Condorcet vote-counting methods use all that data.

On a side note, Condorcet-based methods are not to be confused with IRV (instant runoff). The ranked-choice ballot looks pretty much the same, but IRV ignores most of the data and produces weird results. It gives the voter the illusion that the nuances of their views matter, but it’s a false illusion.

Does either picture represent the true color of the backgrounds & foreground?

If so, which one??

If neither, what color are they???

Here is a ‘side by side’ that might make comparison easier.
.

5000k Samsung …………………………………… 4000K Samsung

Add me to the list for a 2nd one. Especially if there will be an emitter option.

Change my total on the list to 3 please.

Thanks for that Teacher.

That 5000k Samsung looks as good as my D4 with 3A 5000K.

Now that’s a side by side I’d love to see…….

The 5000k is more than likely closer to daylight colours but I have little use for that. I will always choose the warmer colours for an edc.

Think of it as an anti-blue light app on your phone or PC only it’s on your torch.

My pleasure Lionheart. :+1:

I would like to see that comparison myself…….

Thanks pinkpanda. If I understand you correctly you are saying the 5000K picture shows more realistic background & foreground colors? Is that correct??

I hear what you are saying about color choice to. :+1: I guess that speaks to personal preference, as I would never, on purpose; choose anything warmer than 5000K for an EDC.

Who doesn’t want to escape the cold reality. Nothing wrong with looking at the world with a bit of (4000k) warmth.

:+1: . Exactly, nothing wrong with that at all. :beer:
Just as there is nothing wrong with looking at it in beautiful 5000K illumination. :wink: Or whatever one’s preference is for that matter.

There is no right or wrong…… just personal preference.

On my phone and computer screen the 4000K makes the green and blue look correct, and the white looks closest to the correct color. I obviously have no idea about the background.

Ok…. :+1: . On mine I can tell very little difference in the containers. If anything, parts of the 5000K picture look more vivid to me. But the backgrounds & foreground are totally different.

As I understand the algorithm, this also produces the same result:

  • 1st choice: 219c, LH351D, XP-L HI
  • 2nd choice: XP-G2, XP-G3

Only the order matters, and putting something in last place is absolutely not a vote for it. Furthermore, this:

  • 1st choice: 219C, LH351D
  • 2nd choice: XP-L HI
  • 3rd choice: XP-G2, XP-G3

votes for the XP-L HI over the other Cree emitters just as much as ranking it first does. Only the order matters, and this still says XP-L HI > (XP-G2, XP-G3).

Finally, though this software doesn’t support it, it is possible to allow leaving options not favored off the ballot with this algorithm; the effect would be the same as ranking them last.

Proto one was
Abmessungen Klipp FW3A Proto 1:
Innendurchmesser: 23.1mm (inner diameter)
Außendurchmesser: 26.1mm (outer)
Material: 0.8mm (thickness)
Länge vom abgeknickten Teil (innen) bis zum Auflagepunkt: 42.5mm
(length to resting point)

As I understand it though, it’s possible to give dishonest rankings in order to have a stronger effect on the result; I won’t explain how in too much detail.

Don’t explain how to do that (gaming). I could easily, but I won’t.

Yes, you keep making that very clear.
