【ツ】Wurkkos TS30 + TS30S Sales Thread - available on wurkkos.com, Amazon & AliExpress

Any news?

If I want to find someone to help me test my flashlight, which buddies should I look for? Need who live in USA

Production of TS30S is scheduled to start in about two weeks, as far as I am informed.

Interested

I’m interested in the TS30S with no strike bezel.

I’m interested in the TS30S with no strike bezel.

Update (2020-11-24):

Assembly of TS30S (with Luminus SBT90.2) will commence at the end of this week. IIRC, Wurkkos will probably be using the same Andúril revision number that Sofirn used in SC31 Pro (2020-03-18?). I will soon give an update about another new Wurkkos flashlight called TS30 (with Luminus SST-40 and the FC11 UI), to be launched even before TS30S.

Meanwhile, Mark gave me a brief look at the current status of TS30A today...

  • TS30A is currently in prototyping, the reflector geometry will soon be confirmed. So far, the TS30S head seems quite appropriate for Osram's LE A P0MQ even exceeding TS30S's throw numbers due to its smaller LED die size.
  • I cannot tell what driver the prototype uses but the final version of TS30A will be using a constant current driver. Not sure, if it's a buck driver converting the high battery voltage down to the low Vf of Osram's LE A P0MQ. The LED can be driven up to 8A of continuous peak current. Output is rated about 1.200 - 1.400lm at this current.
  • According to personal perception the so called amber tint (specified with 614nm wavelength) looks much more like red instead of orange or even yellow.

Below, some quick shots of the prototype incl. whitewall beamshots that Mark kindly shared with me to post them on BLF:

Update (2020-12-24)

Wurkkos has just released their new models TS30 and TS30S for sale on AliExpress, see updated OP with promotion discounts.

Stock will also be available soon at the Amazon FBA warehouse (USA). Sales on Amazon EU will start as of 2021.

TS30A is still in ongoing development.

Merry Christmas to all of you!

Huh the TS30A looks interesting! I love my C01R for indoor use, but I’d love a good outdoor-use red light :smiley:

What kind of driver have?

AFAIK, FET direct drive.

With FET I’m out. Thank you for your efforts :+1:

I was really looking forward to stocking the TS30 triple but Wurkkos is too expensive. As a dealer it’s the same price as a Sofirn SP70 :frowning: how does that work?

If it’s the strike bezel then they need to make it optional

My observation (might not be correct) is that Wurkkos seems to start a new product with a much higher price (if there is a “pre-order” price, it still seems to start out high) and then maybe gradually lower the price. Eg. the Wurkkos HD20 has dropped in price when I check it again, as opposed to when it was available originally (which I feel was quite high-priced)…

But specifically regarding the TS30 (triple SST40), I think there are several competitors for this kind of light, so I would think that making the TS30 competitive right now would probably be better…
Eg. One of the first triple SST40 flashlights I noticed was the Nightwatch NSX3 (NS43) with triple SST40. Then the Astrolux EC03 (also made by Sofirn?) has come out with triple SST40… The Lumintop FW21 Pro now also lists a triple SST40 variant. So these are in likely in direct competition with the Wurkkos TS30, which is yet to be released…

TS30S / TS30 discount price also available on official website now:

Promo code OOTNLTFJ … not valid.

I try to get a new code a.s.a.p..

For size comparison, TS30S and TS30 with their brothers and sisters...

(from left to right: TS30S, TS30, HD20, FC11, DL30, WK30, WK40 prototype)

Oh damn I didn’t know the TS30S was that much bigger than the TS30! I suppose that kinda justifies the price difference!

And oh, WK40 prototype :open_mouth: ? Mind sharing some more info? I’m always interested to know more about Wurkkos/Sofirn development :smiley:

OP updated:

TS30S is now available on Amazon US (actual link is still pending, will update asap).

Codes for AliExpress updated.

TS30 promo price is now lower than before, check OP for more information.

Links to wurkkos.com now updated if you like to purchase directly from the manufacturer.

Yes, the difference is quite significant, mostly because of the deep and wide reflector for the SBT90.2 LED. Moreover, the price difference comes from the high material cost for the SBT90.2 LED, being around $ 40.00 per each. TS30 still does a good proportion of throw, though. I try to post a full review here as soon as possible. Some first feedfack by TLF members looks pretty good, performance quite on par with the Amutorch XT45.

The WK40 project (quad with RGBW LEDs) will no longer be pursued for technical reasons, mostly because of necessary third party parts that were hard to source. I only put this one next to the other ones for size comparison. Sofirn's IF25(A) is quite similar in size and shape to the WK40.

Damn I had no idea that LED is that expensive :open_mouth:

Yes I’d love a review of it! I have my eye on this to perhaps upgrade my Sofirn C8G since this one should throw further and has Anduril :slight_smile: Thanks for the info thus far!
