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

You should get your light about 10-12 days sooner than you would otherwise

Your right… we all know or should know, the Rules. We had to read them before joining BLF.

This whole thing has been completely unnecessary.

As Kindle eluded to…. the puplic confronting of Nev was uncalled for… especially the way it was worded. There is but one administrator / moderator at BLF.

Private PM would have been a much better way to handle it…Or better yet, let the administrator ( sb56637 ) handle any perceived problem.

Instead, BLF Rules were broken to “confront” someone who allegedly broke BLF Rules. Then a downward spiral results.

Somewhat silly isn’t it??? :slight_smile:

Loving my FW3A’s….

Just ordered a purple FW3A with Nichia 4000K. :sunglasses:

Forgive me if it’s been mentioned in in the thread before but it’s a lot to sift through:

What level would I need to set my ramp ceiling in order to have it stop at max regulated output?

I’ve changed the level a couple times and don’t remember. I recall seeing 120/150 being max regulated so 30/31 clicks for the ramp ceiling config, but that seems pretty damn bright given turbo output with a freshly charged 30Q is only a little bit brighter than that.

I forgot to mention, I’m trying the 4000K 90CRI SST20 this time. I’ve tried 5000K 90CRI 219C before and hated it, just had the XPL-HI in my other FW3A, and that didn’t impress. The tint was great, but the light isn’t built for the heat at all and it stepped down way too fast. If I don’t like the SST20, I may just buy a flashing kit, throw some of my new 219Bs in it, and flash a turbo-limited firmware on it.

You have it right; 31 clicks in the ramp config. http://toykeeper.net/torches/fsm/anduril-manual.txt “To set the default of 120/150, click 31 times.”

Edit: See this comment from TK: https://budgetlightforum.com/t/-/45538/10889

I don’t think that spaghetti-monster version is the one used on the FW3A. It’s more generic.

The default smooth ramp ceiling for the FW3A should be 130. This would be 21 clicks.

So in Smooth ramp you click 1 then 21.
In stepped mode it’s 20 then 21 then 7.

I call bs on that.

I didn't accuse anyone, so far, of being dishonest.

I made it clear that Nev should know better than to put the f-word in his avatar.

And you should know the difference, too, unless your first language is not English.

(Or maybe you're just trying to misrepresent my words.)

I defended myself after he attacked me, Einstein.

And suggesting that I broke three different rules by defending myself is a huge stretch of the imagination.

I have started a conversation about this topic with Mr. Admin, but like I said, I have no idea when he'll sign in next, and BLF doesn't need 900+ f-words littered all across the forum, so I handled it myself.

And I handled it quite well, if I might add.

RC, dropping the subject is something sb often suggests. Just sayin’.

Okay, I may as well wade into this abyss.

Since you’re talking about avatars, why don’t you:

1. Remove that creepy large picture in your sig. It’s annoying, cluttering, and distracting. Nobody else seems to use pictures in their sig, at least not like that.

2. Use a plain image for your avatar, not a GIF that simulates a video. Again, distracting, though not nearly as bad as your awful sig picture.

3. This one is minor, but why don’t you post in plain text? Trying to quote anything from you means cutting out reams of garbage mark-up tags. And the mark-up you’re using doesn’t seem to enhance anything in your post.

I know, I know. You’re not going to do any of that. I’m just saying if you’re going to throw stones, ….

So, what’s BLF preorder code for Titaniums?

Just a quick update, also added at the top of the first post:

Current status (2019-08-07): New flavors are available for order or pre-order: Bare aluminum, TK Purple, Blue, Military Green, polished copper, bead-blasted copper, titanium, and titanium+copper. The “TK Purple” version has a stylized moonbeam logo on the button, and a portion of the sales from it will be sent to ToyKeeper.

Coupon codes are:

  • Colors: BLFFW3A 20%OFF
  • Copper (FW3C): BLFFW3C 15%OFF
  • Titanium (FW3T): BLFFW3T 20%OFF

… and for a short time, there is a private 25% off coupon available for people who already bought a FW3A and post pictures of it in this thread.

The F-word is not allowed on BLF, especially over 900 times in an avatar.

1. There's no rule against having a large signature.

2. There's no rule against having an animated gif in my avatar.

3. There's no rule against using the Advanced Post Editor.

You clearly don't have a leg to stand on.

I'm not breaking any rules, so get used to my avatar, get used to my signature, and get used to me using the Advanced Post Editor.

Like I said, I'm not breaking any rules, so worry about yourself instead.

Hey, it took us long enough to get it reduced to what it is now! :smiley:

No kidding!

There used to be twice as much text and five times as many images in my signature as there is now.

Wow, I just found out I can predict the future! Or at least read minds. Very cool!

Lol,
Dunno if you noticed but that was sarcasm :smiley:
And a mighty fine sarcasm it was too.

WalkIntoTheLight, I think you should have a large image in your non-existent signature, add an animated gif as your avatar, and start using the Advanced Post Editor.

Of course, I predict that you won't do any of these things because...

Why should you?
