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

Yes, it should make things easier for printing in black and white.

I need to do some updates too, but I’ve been procrastinating about it because there’s not much room left to add anything. It could use some info about how to control aux LEDs, for lights which have those, but I’m not looking forward to rearranging things to make it fit.

I’m so looking forwards to this. Am I on the list already? If not, I’d love to buy at least one with the LH351D LEDs.

Nice to see this project coming together!

When do you think it will go into production TK? 3 months? 6 months?

Is there any idea of how long after the first run the LH351D run will happen?

This looks like your first post on this thread.

Yup, that's what I see as well.

Interested in 1.

Interested in two. if there are 2 variants of LEDs, please one each. I have already posted this in the German TLF, but the tread does not seem to live anymore.

Edit:

TLF Tread is going on. Please ignore this post

I’m interested in one, thanks!

Interested in Samsung LH351D 4000K 90CRI version .

Welcome to BLF. Give it at least a week for your name to be added to the list.

Now that I have most of the process automated, I’m updating the list a lot more often than before. I try not to modify the list on the first page more than weekly or so though, because IIRC there was some sort of issue a while back with frequent updates to long posts.

Anyway, as far as I’m aware, the copy on my computer is completely up to date, and I sync it to comment #4 periodically.

That’s worrisome. Cawi, are you still maintaining the TLF interest list?

TLF needs someone to manage the list there, and to send out messages when the item is ready to buy.

Based on how quickly Neal is getting things done lately, it seems there’s a good chance that purchases could start sometime this month.

The TLF thread is still there, but there’s been no new posts in about 10 days.

- For those unclear about the above posts.

Exciting!

Will it be shipped from China?

Yes, assuming it’s coming from Shenzhen where Lumintop is located. I don’t see them shipping all the lights to a different location first, then shipping out to the world.

Well, this is nice…

I received a response from Digikey’s quote department, and a special one at that :slight_smile:

Guess this is why it took about 1 week for a responses.

We have gotten quite lucky. They were able to confirm the availability for the T2/T4/T5 chromacity bin with a custom bulk order, although with only a reference bin for the brightness bin(Q6), which is probably going to be lower than what we have now.

Here’s an Excel document with more detail on the quote. Go on full right to see the confirmation of tint chromacity bin:

Thanks BlueSwordM, I’ll pass that along to Neal in case he hasn’t already made an order. :slight_smile:

Are you planning to order any or is this just for reference? Are they able to guarantee a specific tint bin selection from the ones you asked about?

I am interested, count me in!
