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

OK, Thanks I can wait.

I’m not sure what your saying about the battery. Do you mean a battery capable of 9A continous? That’s kind of irrelevant. I would just use a good middle of the road high drain and high capacity cell like the 30Q or VTC6 3000mah.

A really high drain cell like the VTC4 2100mah or 20S is probably not needed.

You could probably use a high capacity like 35E or MJ1 and still get decent turbo output along with reduced heat and extended runtime.

Unless the lens has changed without me realizing, the beam should have some decent flood to the side due to the frosted lens. You can also polish the lens to remove the frost and make it more throwy.

I plan to use NCR18650GA's.

They're flat tops, and I hope they'll work fine.

Post #6000!

(at the moment)

how does this project go, any eta on release yet ?

I’m in for 1.

Release ETA: by end of year, 2018… that must be according to Tet.

Already in for one (Post 1631)

Please add a second, will take one of each emitter type

Thanks

Please add 1 more for a total of 2 for me .Thanks

okok so early 2019 i guess then since we are in new year now :slight_smile:

I am in for one if list is still available! Thanks

When will the FW3C (copper) list start?

Right after the FW3Br list and the FW3Ti list.

I’m interested in one! Looks amazing.

Add me to the FW3Au list

Please put me down for one.

Au scratches pretty easily, but I’m sure the hand feel is nice, and the thermal conductivity is superb.

As a much harder alternative that also takes a very nice polish, how about an FW3WC (Tungsten Carbide)?

On the other end of the scale, the FW3Mg would be roughly 1/3 lighter than the FW3A, yet still has pretty decent thermal characteristics. Be careful around open flames, however.

FW3Au available for the low budget price of $15,000?

FW3Mg available… just make sure to avoid a battery short in the tube as it will get hot, HOT, HOT! :smiling_imp:

How long before FW3Be and FW3C?

The first FW3A has to be successful before there are thoughts of making other versions. The 3 preposed versions are brass, copper and titanium. Nothing else.
