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

FW3Ga

Galluim

Better have a VERY quick stepdown!!!

You joke, but what about a GaN FET driven flashlight. I figure if its good enough for chargers, why not flashlights?

I’m surprised it’s not yet on the list…FW3Be

and some get FW3A1A (1th aprill ed)

I would like a FW3CH in bakelite

with a nice touch of plaskon

Would add a playskool version with bright colors to detect flashlight modders at an early age

Or more seriously something like the EverBrite 9-LED 3AAA :person_facepalming:

And now for something completely different….
There are 2 materials that are not the most practical out there but one is practical enough to have a niche and the other - I don’t know but maybe.

1. Beryllium copper. High conductivity CuBe has good thermal properties and is much tougher than pure copper. Machining requires seriously good ventilation though.
2. Magnesium. Thermally - ok to good. Mechanically - passable. Weight - superb. Price - high but way lower than some exotics. Corrosion is a problem. Is it a blocker that can’t be resolved well enough for a reasonable price? I don’t know.

Put me down for one please, thank you!

Thanks everyone for listing all the materials in the world. That was very relevant to this thread and useful.

Right? It has been painful trying to keep up with this thread as of late.

Please add me to the list for 2 additional lights for a total of 4.

Thanks.

Agreed. Adding zero value to the thread — the posts should be removed. It’s already long enough, lets get back to the product discussion at hand.

Hi, welcome to BLF where we try to maintain a fun, family atomsphere and actually enjoy ourselves. You must want that other place…

I’m absolutely positive, even with the higher number of fun, off topic posts as of late that it will be VERY CLEAR when the light gets released. Absolutely no doubt in my mind the “it’s ready to order” post will be buried by pages and pages of “ordered one” posts within literally minutes of it being released and no one will complain about those “posts of zero value”. I imagine TK / the fw3a team realize that and would update the OP/thread title or even make a new thread at that time to avoide their important announcements being burried by such “useless posts” too.

Join the fun.

I understand completely… :wink: . :nerd_face:

I take back what I said. Put my name down for a FW3LPL. The leaded FW3 will keep me safe from the self-powered plutonium.

Vibranium
Adamantium
or
Mithril ?

(I think I can guess Toykeeper’s choice) :wink:

Guys, you may continue with the off-topic banter to keep everyone entertained (or bored because of the corny posts) while there are some issues to be fixed/resolved in the FW3A project.

Stay tuned! :beer:

I am not so active at the moment so I am wondering. Do I get a notification as soon as I can by one or do I have to check the tread on a regular basis?
