FW3A COLORS! (TK edition added)

Do you need a 100 of each colour for it to be available. Or is it just min 100 in total, but all colours available?

Also, do these switch on in your pocket?

They say 100 of each, even the 18350 .

Thats a shame. I’d be up for a green but only 5 on the list, so that ain’t going to happen.

Or maybe a tan, but only 12 of those so far. So I’d guess unlikely.

Purple sounds great, but it looks very pinky purple in the pictures. :frowning:

Please add one each short tube colored to match.
Thanks

Maybe you mean the same thing as me. The OP says:

From that I understand that the TK edition will be made if more than 100 orders for it are received.
Same goes for every other color: minimum 100 items per color.

Milling etc. is the same for every version. But each color demands a special setup/bath.
I’m not sure about the short tubes. They can be dipped into the same bath as the 18650’s.

It’s a pity, because at the moment only purple (without the short tube) has a chance. People have probably bought too many flashlights of this series.
Maybe if someone post this post on r/flashlights, more colors and short tubes would have a chance to be realized.

Or at a minimum, keeping it on the first page .

Well I’ve put myself down for a green. Think that makes 6 in total, so almost certainly no chance.

Too pricey for a colour I don’t really want though. Not knocking the price, but I’m sure you know what I mean.

I feel they could (and maybe should) make the raw version even if it doesn’t make 100. It’ll be less work than anodising, and it’s what the light was supposed to be from the beginning

+100

Take an extra 100 and skip the ano baths. Done.

You’re right . But purple is not .

you are correct
Neal needs to order 100+ FOR EACH COLOR OR ITEM to get them make a batch for him

Purple interest need to pick up if we are to get the complete set with the 18350 tube .

feel free to share the groupbuy!

I’m curious . Do you transform the look of it ? Is a coat of protectaclear a possible evolution ?

Just my opinion. I feel purple, black and raw should be made regardless. I know this isn’t worth anything, but I feel these are colors with a need and want by the community snd will sell over time

No more interest ?

“Bump” - Come on folks!

Sad to see not one of the colors reach 100… really would at least like a raw and black, and even a purple if I can’t get the blue. Anyway, hopefully some kind of exception can be made or some interest comes up.

I’ll just note- I recently ordered (received last week) a fw3brass from Neal and it’s functionally flawless… I know I’ve seen some members on other threads questioning the fw3a functional reliability. I have never had one with an issue and I’ve owned 5. So I hope that isn’t holding some newer people back from signing up.

I would gladly buy more but i have 2 already feels its enough for me atm. Strange the low interest, i guess most have one of those by now maybe ?
