The Q-III was my first CPF buy over three years ago. It now resides at work and sees almost daily use. It had been upgraded with a TWOH, 20mm IMS, and mineral glass. I've also got one with an SSC, great flood beam for close quarters. I really like the way the Q-III fits my hand.

I never thought I'd buy another....Hmmmmm.
 
Ahhh! Now that's what I'm talkin' about :thumbsup:. Now if they'll just come out with the 2xCR123 version (upgrade of the X-3)...

Thanks for the heads-up, dealgrabber2002.

this is good news.... i use my Q3 as one of my 2 EDC lights. will definitely be buying one of these.

does anyone know who is a dealer for Nuwai. i forgot who i bought mine from.

Another wow!! This is great !!
My old (2 years) Q-III is still in my car and was replaced by my P2D as an EDC, but now ...
I'm feeling that I'm getting weak.

... and what about the 2 cell (Ledwave or Nuwai, whatever) version.

Can you speak about retro design after 2 years?

Oh S..., I'm going to spend some money on lights again.
My wife regularly asks me when I will grow up.
When nice lights come out, I suppose never.
 
That's been up on that website for a bit now. I noticed it in November and thought at the time that they should have introduced an upgraded led model last year when everyone was swapping out the LuxIII stars for Seoul Z-led P4 stars in their Q3's, myself included.
Personally, I think this new model is too litle, too late, but I'm sure others will say it's better late than never.

I wonder what pricing on them will be like?
 
I chase lumens, throw and run-time just as much as the next guy (and have the lights to prove it :eek: ), but simplicity, reliability and compact size count for something too. That's why my 1xCR123 light has been the original Q-111 (until this new release) ; for 1xAA, my trusty CMG Infinity Ultra-G; and for 1xAAA, the ARC AAA-P (which I'm about to replace with the new DS).

Nothing fancy about any of them (compared with today's huge list of choices), but if I could only have three flashlights...

I looking forward to the Q-100 -- hope it comes at a reasonable price.

Love the pseudo-military S-F styling. It's been on the Nuwai website for months and in October I emailed the guys from EliteLED re release date. They told me the end of Oct (which year??) I've been waiting, but recently been distracted by the Fenix T1 which I suspect will steal some of its thunder. But.... I might have to own both if the price is right.
 
If new Q-100 can has at least 2 level output, like Q-III's mother (X-3), that would be great.

If they come out w/an upgraded X-3, as well, I might have to buy both ;)

But they best not delay too long. They're already missed the Christmas season, as it is. Can't imagine what they're thinking.
