Lumintoplighting FW1A PRO "limited" release

I’m guessing I’m not alone in receiving this email. Just posting for those who may be interested.


Here’s the link…

FW1A PRO

I have also received it, but with the disastrous experience I have had with the Lumintop scammers, I don’t want that flashlight, even if they give it to me … scoundrels !!! :nauseated_face:

Please share your experience. I’m curious, as I have ordered many times from Lumintoplighting.com, and found them to be legitimate retailers and overly accommodating. In all honesty, they have a better selection than Lumintop’s official website.

50 bucks for a 50.2 HD, FET+7+1 driver, and glued bezels… Sounds like they found an old crate with leftover stock and tried to milk as much money for as little effort as possible.

These specs at this price might have been okay 5 years ago. Nowadays it’s ridiculous, and will IMO only sell because the FW series is legendary.

Too bad. A proper re-release of the FW series would be dope. But that would mean proper buck/boost drivers, modern emitters, and no glue. Ideally also smaller/no logos. The huge font breaks the clean design of this light.

I don’t disagree that other lights are available with better specifications for the same price, but if these sell out, then they’ll have priced them correctly. Chinese manufacturing is cheap but it’s not a charity, they’re in business to make money.

Also agree that a proper upgraded version would be good, but they’d likely price gouge that to be $75 or something so…

A bit lower price on AE

How easy is it to change the emitter in these? Is it a 3V or 6V XHP50.2?

3V, since it has a FET+linear driver. Might reflow a SFT-40 or some other 5050 3V LED like the new Hanks/FFLs.

LHP531 ftw! :partying_face:
Bought the blue one.

Ooh forgot about this one. Yeah that is a great choice. I wanna put 2 of them in my Lupine, too.
