i hope there will be a choice of emitters or ……….
after the first run is done, do another GB with a different emitter….
after that do xhp 50 and a reflector
While I don’t know what the emitter will be, I can at least say it won’t be XHP 50. The voltage on those is too high and the driver can’t convert it. That would make this a totally different light.
How many flaslights do you want in total? Total 8 flaslight The FW3A? … Total 12 flaslight The FW3A? … Total 16 flaslight The FW3A? …
Please, say: Total .x. torch; … Total .x. units; … Total .x. flashlight.
I understand why he might feel this way. The general design and UI are established, but the specifics are still elusive. Tapered or not? Bead-blasted or “right off the lathe?” Emitters? Options? Date?
It looks like an intriguing light, if it ever happens, so I would like to express my interest in two.
However I have my doubts about the complexity and precision (and weaknesses) needed to make the co-axial tubes purely to put an e-switch in the tail, instead of a simpler side switch in the head (my preference anyway).
Discussion of the aesthetics, taperings, raw or bead blast finish seem incidental to me. I will take it, provided it is is a marvel of packaging, performance (luminous and thermal), UI (not in doubt) etc.
Then there is the question of the manufacturer, and their willingness to perform. Presumably this would be their second special, following the GT. I’d like to think they will cope better with production and distribution this time, having learned.
Still hopeful, if this comes off it could be quite special.
Last I heard, Lumintop has a spreadsheet of things to change or fix and should now be working on a second round of prototypes. I’m not sure if this is being held back by the GT or any other projects, but I think we’ve just been waiting on Lumintop for the past month or two.
The new year most likely was the biggest reason for delays.
Is there any chance that this thread ownership would be transferred to a team account as it has been done for the GT thread? That would help keeping the first post and title up to date…

Please help,
Do you want to be on the list now?
Or, do you have doubts?
It’s a list of interest,
Not obligated to buy,
Important, do not enter if you doubt
We wish to transmit to Lumintop a reliable number of interested parties.
