Well Lumintop just finished the first host, so almost a prototype.
Huge, and cool
Not finished but still progress
I count on q1/q2 or 2018 for release but it could go faster, idk
I think the FW3A is a nice addition to the Lumintop line up, especially if the A goes well and we go further on B, C and T versions. That would mean a new long produced light.
In my Opinion….
Lumintop is a relatively new manufacturer with one product that is a big hit, the Tool. They want another hit.
They’ve gotta be drooling at the even bigger hit that is the BLF-A6, the Greatest Light On the Planet under $50. (again my opinion)…(and it’s far under $50).
The FW3A has the potential to be at least as big a hit as the A6.
If Lumintop can pull this job off with correct quality, it will be a major feather in their cap and put them in the spotlight to stay.
It gives them incentive to do the job right and give the people what they want, and we win too. It’s a WIN for everybody!
My only comment on the light is that the name FW3A is a bit cumbersome. I say it needs a name. Does this sound good? Not TRY… TRI
BLF TRI
FW (guy who designed it I believe) 3 (number of emitters) A (for aluminum, denotes the material used)
I like it, short and to the point. I dont think I have once told anyone make and model of my flashlights in person at least lol
It could be almost as unfortunate as when Chevy tried to sell a car called “Nova” in countries where that translates to “no go”. Who wants a car which doesn’t go? Who wants a flashlight with triple malfunction?
