Hello. Just bought one from lumintop. They made terrible engravings on body and tailcap Where can I buy clean one? Without any logos and engravings on body?
Yes, it’s normal for regular flashlight, but not for this stylish product. FW3A has beautiful clean author’s design out of the box. No reason to trash it.
I agree with imshara. For this particular light the clean look is one of best “features”. Lumintop is allowed to change this of course, but it would have been nice if they would announce it first.
That’s Lumintops logo, not the playboy bunny lol. I actually like the button, the rest of the engravings I can do without. Simple fix for the head bezel, just get a stainless one or this new style from JC Customs.
I 100% agree. When I saw these two marking on my FW21 Pro I was bummed, but not surprised since I likened that more to Lumintop and a almost complete redesign. My recent Cu Fw3c does NOT have those markings… I would be angry, mostly because of the bezel. I mean I get it, its not the end of the world, but there is no reason for it. Looks like a McDonald’s coffee cup to me… What, has someone sued LT because they didn’t realize 2800L the size of a roll of quarters is HOT? ridiculous… Lumintop should take the logo off. If you have a buffing wheel and black/brown compound, that bunny will come off in about 20 seconds I suspect, although that one doesn’t bother me all that much.
I think there will be more reactions when more people become aware. Although as the other guy mentioned, most BLFers who want a the grey FW3A already have it.
The only thing that would tempt me to buy another FW3A is if/when Lumintop release a non-limited version with the lone1 buck/boost driver. And in that case I certainly will be turned off by a big warning triangle printed on the bezel.
If they need to do it for legal/regulatory reasons they should just use a sticker that can be peeled off.
