Thank you!

Sorry if I missed this but was the most optimal battery ever discussed?

High capacity, medium drain batteries like Sanyo 18650GA, Samsung 35E, or LG MJ1 should work well.

Samsung 30Q or Sony VTC6 wil trade a little bit of capacity for slightly higher peak output.

maybe i missed it, but are there any beam shots?

or discussion of the pattern, in words>?

thx

As far as 7A candle mode, I'm having the same thoughts as TK and teacher. It would be really cool. But do I need a $36 candle? This is, of course, not the forum for that question. Everyone will say yes.

Wait.. If I used this light as  a candle, then that's more use than 100+ of my lights currently get now. I think I need to order another in 7A 

This is a nice option: http://www.mtnelectronics.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=60_134&product_id=965

I got this triple 2700K XPL HI in a nice EDC (SWM C20C), and really like it: http://www.mtnelectronics.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=60_132&product_id=935. Its quite unique because I usually don't go this warm.

My wife had been known to buy $20 candles that are dimmer and not even rechargeable. $36 dollars for a candle with all the features of the FW3A is a steal.

I would like to order one in XP-L HI

Ordered 3× 3D 1× 7A
Thanks

Any chance of one around 6000k ever being produced at all?

If only for Toykeeper and I, sometimes it seems like we’re the only ones who actually prefer cooler over warmer…

Toykeeper wrote:

If Lumintop and Neal can be convinced to offer more flavors, it would be nice to have a cool white version. I suggested 7A, 5A, 3D, and 2A (~3200K, ~4100K, ~4900K, ~5900K). However, they are hesitant to make too many flavors.

I don’t want a cool white one for myself though. I generally prefer ~4100K to ~4900K. But I’m pretty sure JasonWW would like to have a cool white version.

Ahhh, sorry. Must of got mixed up, I remember a previous thread way back where someone said they like the cooler tints. Remember thinking at the time – wow, thought I was all alone! : )

Maybe it was JasonWW, sorry!

Most 5700K are nice looking to me. Unfortunately, most lights don’t have that option. Sofirn usually does.

I’ve tried 4000K high CRI, but it’s too yellow for me.

Just for the record.

Ordered, thanks to all involved for your hard work.

XP-L HI triples with Carclo 105xx series optics have been a thing for a while. This is the 10511, which is a frosted optic that’s smoother and a little more floody than the most popular 10507, but you can trivially swap in a 10507 or any of the others if you want. Arrow sells 10507s with free overnight shipping (yes, really, even if you only buy one $1.76 optic – no, there’s not a catch).

I don’t have a link to beamshots, but I’m sure you can find some on BLF. The beam of this light will look exactly like any other light using the same emitters and optic.

I would like to be added to the list for 1 please

So, I don’t really have a use for this as a “normal” flashlight, but I ordered one in a 7A tint for the specific purpose of using it as a night light. I’m not sure I’m into “candle mode”, but I’ll see what it’s like. “Sunset mode” seems more useful for my purpose, IMO.

Anyway, does anyone have a link to a diffuser that will fit this light, so it can sit on a table and look like a mini-lantern?

Add me for 1 please?

If not too late, please add me in for 1x
XPL-HI and 1x SST-20 version

Google is your friend (emitters unknow though)
Link 1
Link 2
Link 3

If it’s not to late add me on the list for 2 please!!!

Update for people wondering when their number will be up… I’m #1048 on the new list and received PM just over 30 minutes ago.

If I did not want any trace of a rose tint, which emitter of the 3D or 7A would I choose?

and which Carclo would give the MOST flood? 10509?

thanks to those ‘in the know’.

add me in for 2 please!

If the list is still open, I’d like to sign up for one

too lazy to look…whatever # I am on on the TK list..
I got my code 15 minutes ago

then I did again and paid for the other

sorry if that complicates things

Not sure about the optics… I’ll look it up in a bit if someone doesn’t chime in.

Edit: YEP, Carclo 10509 is it for more flood. You can get them HERE

I wonder when will the high CRI version be available?
