Yeah that’s the only real bummer with the light so far for me. Don’t see why that clip couldn’t extend up to the edge of the tail and still mount the same way.

Another vote for this, at least as an add-on or option. While not necessarily a bummer for me, I would see this option as an amazing bonus!
The NFD25 is flat, designed to spread out the beam. So, not the right category of product. The NDF25 is a cone, and it technically fits, but it's not a good fit and not very useful as a diffuser cone either. It's basically transparent, doesn't emit light very evenly, and does weird things to the tint. There's also a stretchy silicone one, but it's difficult to put on, it isn't opaque enough, and it looks awkwardly like a stubby condom. So I'm still looking for a diffuser cone which fits well and is opaque.
Speaking of awkward looking diffusers: I have this https://m.aliexpress.com/item/32789377508.html It works to illuminate a table. The small size fits barely a Q8 I like it's collapsible and I use it only on low. The front output is much less than on the side.
I really don’t want to be “that guy” right now, but considering the pace of this project so far, would it be too late to consider re-polling LEDs to vote on replacing the Samsungs with Luminus SST-20-W 95CRI ?
They have 3000k and 4000k options available, if not others as well. Djozz and Maukka have tested these with amazing results. Better tint and CRI than the Samsungs (less green, better Rg values) and they will throw much better as well. CRI and tint of these compete with E21A 9080s with output in the same ballpark as 219C but definitely shy of LH351. Current vs Vf curves are almost the same between the LH351 and SST20 so current draw will likely be similar.
The emergence of these LEDs have got me extra excited/impatient for the F3WA.

It’s probably too late. Last I heard, Neal told me three weeks ago he had the final prototypes in hand, and was going to send them out that same day. Not sure what the delay has been since then, but it sounds like the only steps left are to test and approve the samples, then give a go-ahead for production.

Now, the anticipation again…
I’m very patient with these group buys. I haven’t bought a new light since the Q8 though, and I must admit I am excited that these seem to be close to ready.
I also hope all goes well, but as always, better to take as long as needed to get it right.

Well, now that you talk about it, my GAW for 1xFW3A (emitter will be chosen by the winner) is still running – of course – for those that wanna be “IN” & that meet the criteria on post#1 of that thread !
No double entries and if you wanna know if you’ve already showed interest to be “IN”, check post #2 !
I guess you’ll still have some time, but…it’s getting shorter
@ those-that-will-receive-a-prototype-to-see-how-things-are : let us know how this beauty is rolling and ruling
Holy cow! You’re going to make some people very happy. I’m sure you’ll be happy with yours too. I’m on the list for two, but that might have to go up, pending emitter options. The end is near! I shouldn’t even say it, but it does appear Christmas presents are possible…

Eheh, I hope so! It will be my first GAW here, so I just hope it goes well!
For me, I’m on the list for 2 lights, that I hope to get in the 2 different types of LEDs! I guess this is a thing that cannot be missed! If I had more money, I’d buy 4 for me, just because, but 2 will do the trick
And…I make mine your words, x-mas gifts (for the GAW and me ) would be nice
Let’s see how far is the end and wait for it smoothly

I am looking forward to this one too… wonder how much longer before we get some action?
A deep carry clip would be great.

Sorry for my bad English

ok sorry one please, just one
Prototype looks fantastic! Please put me down for one

I really like the Silver mat finnish of the prototype. And for now the poll for led and colortemp is going in the right direction!

It might be worth mentioning that the poll ended almost 3 months ago and recommendations were already sent to Lumintop.
Have not seen this Ops. Poll was still working. If they go for the winners i am happy!
But thanks for mention it!

Please add me to the list for two. Thanks!

Sorry if this is another dud.
Put me down for one.
Please add me for 1 pc
In for 1 please.

Hoping the testing goes well & all is approved.

How many are you getting, Teacher?
They are arrived and will be tested in the next days if there is enough time for it.

BUT… In my defense, 9 of those are to be gifted.
