Oh nice. He can do spectrum analysis and give exact colors at different brightness levels, etc… I hope he gets an xpl-hi version because that’s the one I’m curious about.
Just got the light out of its box about an hour ago. Nothing alarming stands out from a quick test. Only preliminary numbers follow.
-This is the cool white XP-L HI version with frosted optics (2.8 cd/lm)
-Beam is very even in tint which isn’t surprising with the floody optics
-Measurements show a bit of green on lower modes, but nothing to worry about, visually it’s clean cool white and much better than most CRI90 219C
-Max output 2800 lumens with a 30Q (haven’t calibrated the temp sensor yet, steps down after about 15 seconds)
-Max throw 7800cd or 177m
-I like the 1+6+FET (edit: it’s 1+7+FET) three channel driver
-Default mode on smooth ramp is 1×7135 at 120 lumens.
-I would like to have the 1×7135 mode part of the default stepped ramp mode, 8×7135 is there as the highest before turbo
-Button top 30Q fits, but is a bit tight, springs are stiff, no damage but my button tops are very short
-Very nice tactile click to the switch. It always works even from the very edge so no precision required.
I'm currently on the list at 950 for one. I've decided I'd like two total, one of each emitter. (I will probably mod the one with emitters I like less!)

What a lovely looking little light. Can’t wait to get mine.
When I put my name down for one, I didn’t choose the emitter. Do I need to say what I want now, or do I get given the choice once the group buy activates?
2 Questions for anyone able and willing:
1. Please forgive if this an ignorant question…..but as far as “modes” or “brightness levels”, does this go up to the 800 lumen range Maukka noticed and then it’s only the full on TURBO after that? Or is there ramping from the regulated 7×7135 mode up to the Turbo (ie. can we go up to say, 1400 lumens-ish or 2000 lumens-ish and stop there, without going all the way to turbo?) ?
In reading on Anduril on the OP page…it appears infinite variable brightness….but just wanted to make sure I wasn’t misunderstanding.
2. The optics. It appears there are several easy swapouts (some mentioned to be sold by MTN on a previous page here). Is it as easy as screwing off the bezel and swapping? Or is there glue or other tools involved?
TIA!

Sign me up for 1 with the LH351D emitters please.
Thank you guys for all the work you put on creating such good lights for us!Every single BLF light I own is superb so far
seems Mauri’s will delivered today
it is in deliver courier now
HELSINKI – FINLAND, With delivery courier
That’s great news!
It simply means the FW3A team has the whole Chinese New Year lull to test the lights, hopefully its final version already.
I don’t know who Mauri is.
Do you mean Maukka?

I’ll try to finish the review this week, but as of now, I’m impressed.
Here’s some photos.
Looking good!

Nice Quick work Maukka, well done!
Nice looking light, no doubt about it…

What about wait 10 minutes til your eyes do the automatic white balance thing?
wow great info, looks like this will be a very nice light for very little money.
...where Frugal meets with Flashlight!
Hm, to me this is not very Lidl money.
I would rather call it: ……………. a relatively modest amount of money.
I always think long and hard before I say something really stupid.
[/quote]As far as I am concerned.. Neutral ‘should’ be “Pure White”, as close as possible; without adding warm or cool tints.[/quote]
My definition of pure white would be like a white piece of paper but I know the definition may vary.
Great pics, cogs turning

No snapped optic legs here…
So, did Lumintop tell you when the light will be revealed/be able to buy?
I’ll be buying one the second it goes online.

Also, could you check with a magnet if they are steel springs or not?
They look exactly like the BeCu spring from the GT Mini.

Very nice! Noob question: what does the “1” in “1+6+FET” represent?
1×7135+6×7135+FET driver.
It’s a triple channel driver.
You can get very low moonlights with 1×7135 mode.
You can get an efficient 1000 lumen with 6×7135.
You can get max power with direct drive over the FET with 3000+ lumens of output.

Ah gotcha, thanks!
I am on the list for 1. Can you update that to 3 with the LH351D.
TK corrected me and said it’s actually 1+7+FET. Two chips on the other side.
