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

I’m interested in one.

But you didn’t? That’s why he corrected you that its FET+3, not 1 lol.

Whatever your opinio on this light please dont stop posting here.

About the special edition thing, I’ve been really tempted to change the thread title. I’ve always thought The Miller’s title was a little awkward. Special elegant triple powerful flashlight. Should probably change that at some point.

O.K.
:+1:

A shorter title. reduced.

Example:

The FW3A a TLF BLF : Lumintop 18650

Or similar.

Okay, that’s a little unnecessary.

What exactly is theoretical about a flashlight ToyKeeper claims has been carried around for 10 months now?

Will this flashlight be mass produced? That is a valid question…

The more people that respond to spam type comments, the more spam we will recieve. It’s best to just ignore them and wait for actual updates.

I’m interested in 2 lights.

I miss the ’good ole days’ when people said it & then just let it ride… :smiley: . :wink:

ymmv

I think “show must go on” even if we have no response from Fritz.
It is stupid situation when 1500people waiting for one)

I’d like to reserve a FW3A please, or whatever we’re calling them once they’re released. It looks like a great concept.

edit: Make that 1501

Is it the tail switch that differentiates this from lets say a D4 ?

Funny you should ask, I was just thinking about that.
IMHO the answer is yes.
HDS, Novatac, Liteflux and maybe others have tackled this issue, some more successfully than others.
Again, IMHO HDS has done it best.
I don’t know if there are patent issues regarding that particular design but I’m hoping this version works.
The current carried to the switch is tiny so a much smaller conductor could be used.
A notch down the inside of the battery tube could house the insulated conductor.
It’s a matter of making it robust enough to handle battery changes and curious owners.

Interested in one.

I’m interested in 2 more. That should bring my total to 3.

Pepinfaxera, thank you for keeping up with the interest list.

Interested in one if and when.

Would then use a fixed end cap to avoid wire to switch connection being removable?

If the way HDS does it is patented then a new method to carry the signal would need to be devised.
It may require an “out of the box” solution like you’ve suggested and a departure from the standard screw-on tailcap.
It seems like getting that additional signal from the back to the front is one of the delays.
Perhaps a light with the driver in the rear?
Or maybe power control in the rear and a secondary board in the front to allow for heat sensing?
Or maybe the FW3A will deliver the goods and this is all moot.
That’s what I’m hoping.
I’m no rocket scientist though so take what I say with a grain of salt. Or two!

True, they’re EDC tools.
