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

I’m on the list at #1369. Please put me down for another light—2 total. Thanks.

Please add me for one light.

Questions:
*) Will the UI be open source and the firmware easily modifyable and flashable?
*) Any ideas on how much lumen this will put out for an extended period of time (compared to e.g. a D4)?

Of course. People have been using it a lot lately, this is just the first production light to come with it.

I hope to get it flashed on a light soon and make some videos on how to operate it and change it’s menu settings.

I would imagine the same as the D4. It’s mostly about how much heat the body of the light can shed. They are about the same size and have similar lumen output for the amp draw.

ToyKeeper probably knows the exact lumens. Keep in mind it varies depending on the ambient air temperature, how much air is blowing past it and whether your holding it or not. My rough guess would be about 700 lumen.

Interested in 1 light

Thanks!

Interested in one.
Thanks.

Your clip is actually a very good example of’80s synthpop. It’s upbeat and cheery. Gary Neumann would be proud. Good work!

In case the train still standing I am in for Prototype 2 Nichia 219C @5000°K.

Sorry, but there is probably not a Nichia version of the FW3A.
The poll for the led ended with HIs and Samsung LEDs. Please read through the first page of this thread.

But final LEDs are still not confirmed by Lumintop. It depends on what they can procure.

Oops! Sorry, I have to be more attentive :slight_smile:

Another question: which body design has been chosen?

The one with the tapered ramp, prototype #2.
Surface isn’t choosen IMHO. I think there was tendency to grey anodising. But I am not shure.

I am waiting for the LED decision. If there are two to choose from I am afraid I must double my order.

Thank you so much! I am still in :slight_smile:

I’m interested in 4 lights

Many thanks

Quite good, generally not even my preferred genre but I watched the whole thing, which says a lot for me and a music video lol.

I’ll take 2 of these.

Thanks!

Please add me to the wait list for 2 please.

I would like to purchase one of these lights, when possible. Thanks!

Hi
I´m on 1390 and 1391 . Please put me in for a third . Thx …… M.

Those numbers should be divided by the number of forum members at the time (when exactly?) of each project to better reflect the relative “popularity” of each.

In recent times, projects like the Q8 and the GT have attracted quite a lot of new members so now each new project has more exposure and thus faster growing interest lists.

Flashlight addiction virus is spreading! :smiling_imp:

I would like to reserve one as well!
