I’m gunna need a high-drain wallet.
Haha, that’s a good question.
Let me put it this way: If you bought the „long sword“ from TA‘s groupbuy, you might be gettin’ interested in some smaller „daggers“ for close range interactions, too.
C’mon!
Update: I have just revealed the latest news from WildTrail, see updated OP.
Wow, Thanks, very interesting Flashlights ! I m in …
what do the Amis say: shut up and take my money
Friend of Flashlights ;-)
Wow, that’s an awesome looking light, beggin for SFT40 emitters (hopefully they will come in NW sone day)
Looks like my WT90 needs a little brother
WildTrail is already working on a separate SFT40 model (for long distance beam). I would also love to seeing SFT40 in WT1M and WT3M but for now it is not part of their plan.
Update 2021/09/05
Returning customers who purchased WT90 from WildTrail‘s Aliexpress shop may apply for additional $ 3.00 off for WT1M and WT3M. Please order but do not pay. Leave a message to the seller like „I purchased WT90“ and wait for price adjustment.

Good news, thx LP. I want a triple 50 to compare against EC03
I have the triple SST-40 5000K WT3M prototype, but the WT3M is smaller in both head width and length, lighter (128g vs. 181g). It's pretty close in size to a D4SV2 actually, but thinner tube and 11g lighter (D4SV2 w/SS bezel). They kept the light weight in mind in these designs, like they did with the WT90.
The prototype is very close to the production release. I should be able to post better pics of the WT3M next to a EC03.
WT1M:
WT3M:
And the WT90 (can't leave this little guy out):
Family together - easy to see they have many common design traits:
WT1M left, WT3M right. The EC03 is similar in capabilities, being a triple XM-size LED reflector, single 21700 light:
Thanks for the informative post Lux!

These look fantastic. I’d like to buy both. Anyone know if they take paypal?
They do for me, just tried it - PayPal comes up as a payment method and was allowed to select it.
PayPal worked first me as well

Cannot find these two new WT flashlights on Banggood.
WT shop on Ali Express is charging some shipping fee (about 10-12%) for delivery to Singapore from China. Normally it is free.
Thanks
Why does the WT3M have less ANSI than the WT1M? Why is the WT3M shorter than the WT1M?
ANSI throw I assume? Single reflector will out throw a triple reflector of the same width, but the WT1M has a bigger head to maximize throw, while the WT3M is more for flood, so size isn't as important. The WT3M even has an OP reflector to soften the hot spot and make a more uniform beam, and with the 3 reflectors it doesn't need depth so overall, the WT3M has a smaller head.
I just ordered a WT1M w/XHP50.2, silver of course...
Never mind, after looking at the pictures again it seems the battery tube is approximately the same. The head of the flashlight is where the extra length comes from. For some reason, I was thinking one had a longer battery tube and was confused since both use a 21700
Lucky you. They want $50.61 to ship to Philippines. Hope BG will sell these at a reasonable price.
I feel sorry for people who don't have a hobby or interest to escape to.
Too bad the 50.3 won’t be 3V in hiCRI.. I like the 3M, but the days of low cri flooders are over for me. Wish I could support WT with my $ but not this time. Fingers crossed they knock the SFT40 model out of the park. Maybe something in the 50-55mm class to fill in the dead zone between C8s and 60mm lights. 250kcd and 2200lm in the smallest package possible might be a hot item.
agreed about the sft40 model in that size. I have a sft40 in a Emisar d1s with a 50mm head and it is a perfect setup, also the gt mini would be like that too. A 21700 gt mini sized light would be AWESOME

Yea, it's not that kind of flooder for sure, more like a power flooder but with a nice hotspot, big, but not as big as you get with the tir optics. I should take some wall and beam shots. It's really a decent looking smooth beam with the OP reflectors.
