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

Will I get a tracking code after shipping?

usually all orders from neals gets a tracking nr, atleast my previous order there have got one.

He already said yes.

OK, I guess Iā€™m in for one more, three in total. This one will be a later led variant.

Thanks,

3D has been ordered and will wait for the SST-20 to come out for my second unit. :slight_smile:

In for 1 :slight_smile:

when http://toykeeper.net/torches/fw3a/privmsg.lst
list refresh ?

After that list finishes, this thread will be gone through again to collate all the new additions.

Got my PM and ordered a 7A. Thanks so much to everyone who made this possible :slight_smile:

Will the 7A start shipping soon? I paid for expedited shipping too since Iā€™m impatient :smiley:

Thank you. Too many posts I have missed that answer.

:+1:

I ordered 2 pieces of XPL-HI 3D which I was registered for :smiley:
Thanks guys for this great project ! Cheers !

To clarify these are shipping from China right?

FW3A 3Ds already shipping. Got my tracking number.

Yes

I am worried that I possibly only should have ordered one as my first request and last request where over a year apart donā€™t want to jump the queue and upset the applecart

One 3D ordered! Everyone who worked on this gem and made it possible, thank you!

Admirable, but no need to worry. You only ordered what you were on the list for. They will make plenty of them.

you sent me discount code but there is no Turkey on the list! please add. thanks

Your test was biased on so many level that it made me ā€œcringeā€ and in science an example is never considered as a proof or a demonstration.
ā€œI can prove that a bullet isnā€™t lethalā€ā€¦by shooting a part of the body without arteries and vital organs.

On earth ground, the lower the angle between the observer and the beamlight, the higher the rayleigh back-scattering. This applies to molecules (air), not particles (dust).

Source (link edited).

Which means that if you are holding the flashlight in your hand, you will have more Rayleigh back-scatterring than someone that is far away on your side. You will have less back-scattering when your are taking a picture on the side of the lightbeam than if you are close to it.
The farther on the side you will be, the better for your demonstration.

The rayleigh back-scattering intensity is greater with short wavelengths (blue) than for higher wavelengths (red), then a CW LED has more rayleigh back-scattering than a WW LED.
It also depends of the spectrum wavelengths absolute and relative intensities.

CW LED has more blue light absolute intensity than WW LED, but with a higher CRI at same CCT, the red wavelengths of a high CRI LED have more intensity than a med CRI LED = more throwy red.

Also keep in mind that when you are holding a flashlight in your hand, the receptor is your eye which doesnā€™t respond the same to a given spectrum than the receptor of a camera.

Your experiment was very interesting though but have too much relative parameters/variables to draw a firm conclusion like you did.
