I would set the ceiling to the highest regulated level, and I doubt I’ll use it above that level much.
Quite. Which is also driving my strong interest in this, DEL’s driver with x1 and x7 (I think) AMC chips.
That is huge, having regulation (and efficiency) at all usable levels. Goodbye FET+1.
Plus Anduril of course.
I couldn’t care less about the FET, that’s just for headline figures for a few seconds on a torch of these dimensions, and over-powered-ness (if that’s a word).
If you like that, you might also appreciate Mike C’s approach. He has a 4-channel driver that uses banks of AMC7135’s additively to increase current up to the max level of the driver. Only a single AMC7135 chip is PWM’d so most mode levels are completely PWM free. The PWM channel is for modes below 350mA current.
Oh! Yes,
All interested, be welcome.
At the moment, no limit has been set (as was the case with BLF-GT.
All requests, will be included in the list of interested parties.

Another thing to remember with tint preferences is there is such a large population of color blind people. Those who can not very well differentiate between red/ green will have a very different opinion of choices compared to handing the light to a lady with tetrachromancy and asking her opinion… and there are plenty of us somewhere in between.
Myself I like the Samsung at around 4500K.

My rules for flashlights:
1) Always have an option for Neutral, Warm, HiCRI
2) Just say "NO!" to proprietary cells and battery packs
3) Have a KISS interface: no scrolling through blinky modes

OK, great stuff. Thanks!

Texas Ace Lumen Tube and JoshK Sphere calibrated with Maukka lights
I’m 35 now, I wonder if I’ll have this light in my collection before I die
Lionheart? Do you have any of the Lionheart lights from Mr Bulk? I have a few of them. Totally awesome for their time. I EDC’d them for years.
As far as these? Yeah, there’s some design time. And build time. They’ll get here. I can’t wait either. Makes me twitch. But the lights are worth the wait, usually. Makes it better when you actually get to fire them up in your hand.
I’m 35 now, I wonder if I’ll have this light in my collection before I die
I doubt it.
Over a month ago (20th September) the third prototypes were received for evaluation by two people at TLF directly responsible for the design/marketing, since then not one word.
I mean, how difficult would it be to post a few words about it and cheer us on ?
The main man does have a history of clamming up, going dark and not delivering when things get a tiny bit difficult.
Or perhaps they are just too busy with more important stuff ?
So pipinferaxa, I officially declare that I am out of this one, as I previously said that I would if a further month went by with no news.
I never needed it, but was interested in the driver and firmware. Sceptical about the mechanics. I’d just like to forget all about this and move on. Sympathies to Lumintop, Del and TK. I hope something comes out of this for you.
Please remove me from the interest list (2 torches).

I really like what Mike C has done, but I suspect he is also a private person, like me, who doesn’t particularly like to talk about things publicly.
Look up “reticence”, for example

Not in this Group Buy as far as I know.

I meant just in general, I’ve only ever seen 4000 and 5000K versions.
If there are 4500K for sale what’s their CRI?
I honestly have no idea.

GreaT movie.
“Definitely an antisocial type. Woof, woof, woof! That’s my other dog imitation. “
Be happy and hope for the best.
Or stick your fingers in your ears and say la la la until you go to sleep.
Are you in this game still, because I’m not, there is only so much messing about, up with which I am not prepared to put ?
Are you on the list for this one, I took a quick look but didn’t see you.
PS: what is it with all the knives in your signature ? I mean, really, it’s actually quite offensive. Think about that.
All meant kindly, but really, get a grip.
Just roll around in glitter and be happy
