I got my shipping notification this morning…. Can’t wait for my blue one!
My Cu one is supposed to be here DHL today, haven’t seen it yet
Nature doing its natural course on copper:
I got mine, once again the crazy DHL driver typed in delivered at the door when in fact it was stuffed in the mailbox 300 yds from said door.
Without even taking it out of the package, disappointment. No fancy swirled TK button. 
As much as any other combination of reasons, I bought this light for that TK swirl. Ugh
I’m pretty sure you have to get the purple one for the TK button
Love the purple, so do I buy one just for the button to go in my polished Cu light? Always something….
Buttons should be available separately imo, not many people want a purple light.
Yeah, well, they DO advise to leave the tail cap in place and not tamper with it… so replacing the tail cap en masse would be an invitation to catastrophe. Those un-enlightened that have tampered with the tail cap have had a high rate of glitches because of it.
I thought I asked Neal to be sure my copper variant had this button but maybe I forgot.
Maybe if we ask nicely and promise to be careful with our FW3Xs, Uncle Neal will procure metal buttons for us to buy? I’d like one with the LuminTop rabbit. And after all, Neal already sells accessory glow buttons.
FW3Ti (stonewashed finish) ready to ship:
Well, I got to thinking (not always a good thing) and decided to try a different battery than the one Neal shipped with the light…. (it was marked as a Murata). I removed the Samsung 30Q from my original Gray FW3A and tried it in the FW3T+Cu…. and it works perfectly. There is nothing wrong with the light, but it really does not like the green battery Neal shipped. That same battery does NOT work in my original FW3A, but it DOES work in my Emisar D4 and a Sofrin SPA32v2.0 I had laying on the bench.
Again, there appears to be nothing wrong with the FW3T+Cu that Neal shipped… it just does not like the battery.
Nothing is simple
Received my ti light, happy with it.
Wanted to swap in the xpl hi board I had laying around from an fw3a, but the boards in the ti lights are much thicker. So I went with a sst20 3000k reflow.
Added a blue glowring with 3 orange trits.
Wow! I don’t think I’ve ever seen an MCPCB so thick! Good that they did that as the Titanium is so poor at transferring heat…
Is the light full ti (not cu/Ti)? How is the weight? I love the xl board. Great idea.
Full ti indeed. I like the extra weight in combination with the titanium. Feels like a real tool now. I think more weight of the ti/cu would make it to heavy me.
Old trick for unscrewing the head or tail if it is really tight.
Put the light in your freezer for 5 or 10 minutes.
The parts will come right off.
Woo! If my ti ever ships I will be pleased!
