Lumintop FW21 Pro Floodlight photo comparisons: Mateminco MT07,, AT40 mule, FW3A...C8+, NI40, SP36.

Yeah, size matters :stuck_out_tongue: , but in this case, also the weight. 3 x 18650 vs. 1 x 21700.

I don’t have an EC03 on order.

can u do some test of the fw21 pro over a larger area distance like 100m or more, if possible tatasal ?

I will try to find such place…I have relocated and the place where I live now is so well lighted.

New place in the house for some beamshots: as per Google Earth, 28 meters/91.8 feet

FW3A —————————————————— FW21 Pro:

If you could compare the mateminco mt07 and the fw21 un the same place, would be perfect!!

when you can, no problem !!

Btw, the time-honored tradition here in BLF is, when in doubt, buy both! :beer:

Thanks again for posting all of these great pics. They really demonstrate the differences very well. I love your new little flashlight!

cool pics… the fw21 is very good flood monster.

As per request of alvaro52021:

Tonight it’s not raining, so here are your shots:

The MT07 powered by the Vapcell INR26650 and used the copper plate on Arctic MX4:

Nice comparison. The SST-20 really brings out the red!

Be careful with continuously hitting turbo on the FW21 pro.
Here’s a link from a reddit user who burned his domes and phosphor off

ouch not good…. :frowning:

Continuously hitting turbo with a compact flashlight that outputs something like 10,000 lumens...

Not too surprising.

Agreed. Given how 10,000 lumens lasts for only a few seconds and about 8,000 for 15 seconds, they shouldn’t have tried to drive the emitters that hard. How many people are really falling for “10,000 lumens!” as a buying decision? We’ve already seen that game played and enough people should’ve figured it out by now.

If I were to get an FW21 Pro, I’d never drive it that high. But, given what happened with phosphor falling off, who knows what the threshold is?

If the FW21 Pro comes out with a warm white tint, I'll get it, but I probably will never use turbo.

I plan to get some high drain 21700 cells for it, however.

I’ve done that multiple times with my NS53 with no visible issues to speak of.
