Great alternatives! :D :THUMBS-UP: Anyway, I just asked Fin17 if he can do something about the lampshade‘s price on Banggood. Maybe a group buy can do some extra magic to drop the price even lower than usual, IDK. Don‘t we all have at least one or two FW3A or FW21 Pro at home already? ;-)
Concerning the button cells, I vote for a nice 12S buck driver (12x CR2032 = 36V) with awesome constant current regulation. No need for too short tubes. ^:)
It doesn’t, now to be fair I haven’t tried disabling thermal throttling. No matter what level of brightness you set to light to, it will adjust down to around 100 lumen in the case of the SST20, I assume it must be one 7135 current regulator usually takes about 20-30 seconds to settle down to the 100 lumen. You can keep hitting turbo though if needed.
FWAA w/Nichia 219C 3000K, and Vapcell 14500 H10 battery.
Pre-ordered on 4/19, shipped on 4/28, arrived at my doorstep 4/30. That’s a record speedy delivery for me (HK to US)! I’m enjoying the FWAA so far! Thank you for this group buy, freeme/NealsGadget!
Thanks to freeme and nealsgadgets for arranging this group buy, SST20 4k ordered along with a couple of other goodies to hit the free shipping threshold. While I still hope the SP10S BFL edition (link for those interested) comes to fruition one day I am sure the FWAA will meet my needs for many years to come.
Just received mine, 219c and a battery. What an excellent piece of kit it is too. Definitely in for a brass or copper version. I will also get an sst20 version as well
Just got home from work to find a package containing my two (3000k and 4000k 219c). Very nice little lights, smaller than I was expecting! I can see this being my new EDC, I just really wish they would have made the clip deep carry! Hopefully they’ll come out with one later, along with a SS bezel that I’ll inevitably buy.
