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

Yeah.

Deanodized clip would be best.

The clip won't stop me, but I won't be happy about it, if I ultimately receive lights with clips like the one pictured most recently. A shame; nobody told them there was anything wrong with the clips.

For what is the front hole in the clip good?

Nothing as far as I am concerned.

must be for lanyard no otherwise why a hole ?

I’m not a clip guy, they don’t matter much to me, but that one doesn’t look good. For those that like them, I hope those pictures don’t represent what you will get. The others looked much better, and I can’t fathom what prompted the change, so late in the game.

…déjà vu…

well Lumintop makes the light so any last minute changes for whatever reasons are their choice.

It could be used for a lanyard, but… there’s already another hole for that, and the other one is in a better place.

If anything, I get the impression it was probably added just because some other clips have a hole there. But it’s not a good place to put a hole. It doesn’t significantly decrease weight, but it would significantly increase the chance of snagging while trying to clip the light onto something.

Remember, lest we forget; the episode of a couple weeks ago. It was based on pictures.

Maybe (hopefully), just maybe (fingers crossed while hoping); that is the case with these pictures. Maybe they were not the most current picture or, if they were; maybe the clip “color” is not as bad as it appears. However, no mistaking the hole. :person_facepalming:

We can always hope…… :wink:

The illustration on the boxes in the recent photos also show a hole in the clip. If they’ve already printed all the boxes it seems like the clip decision may be final. :frowning:

i hope it does fit.

Undoubtedly true.

I know this was answered, but i don’t remember the answer; if the clip ring sticks out from the body of the light, or is in some other way undesirable, can it be removed? Will the light function without it? I would personally prefer just an O ring in the gap to that clip.

In fact, here is tatasal’s post saying it was Titanium Grey. Hopefully…… LT has not gone rouge since that time & changed it. And yep…. the ‘hole’ leaves much to be desired.

It is. As candor says, the picture on the box probably implies it is fit and finish.

Hopefully you’re right, Teacher. Hopefully titanium grey is not in the eye of the beholder. We will, and again I should add hopefully, know all soon, when the samples are received. Anticipation.

“Hopefully” is definitely the ’key word’ cabfrank. I think/guess that is the best we can do at this point…… hope.
Time will tell……
