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

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.

“Guys, I know exactly how murder someone and get away with it, but I’d never do that.”

I think TK would easily catch me out. She’s much too clever to be fooled by an obvious ploy.

5000k Samsung ………. 4000K Samsung

So is that a brown wall, brown shutter, and brown floor as the 4000K makes it look, or is there a white floor, blue/grey shutter and oatmeal wall, as the 5000K shows?

This is what makes me wonder why anyone has a preference for high cri in a warm cct, if it makes everything that does not have a stark colour look brown, what use is the cri? To me it is like having a magnificent variety in your exotic fish tank, and preferring to keep the water dirty.

:+1: - :question:

Far too much green gum (how much do you chew ?)

Did you leave your camera on auto white balance ? Seems to have tried to keep the green gum green (typical behaviour, the natural world is mostly green, so digicams are biased to make it look so)

Not that this means much, use you’re eyes.

By the way, there is a lot more colour in the 4000K shot, even though it is completely wonky.

High CRI makes photos look brownish, but that is not what happens in reality. Photo’s are a pretty poor way of showing tint, let go CRI. (but admittedly there is nothing else on the internet).
