Does the fw4a use the same driver? yes Is that a 24mm optic? yes

Can it possibly be ok to configure this light with all temperature controls turned Off/completely disabled?And thats the reason why its great for some high performance lights. Audirl step down way too fast in most lights way before light gets too hot to hold no matter how you set it or try to fool its sensor.
W2, or W2.1? W2
Can it possibly be ok to configure this light with all temperature controls turned Off/completely disabled? Not that I know of
If yes, can this light be had with all temperature controls turned Off/disabled before shipping, so I don't have to wonder if I did it correctly? If not, can they be set before shipping so as to not overly noticeable? Yes. I can set it to its max for you.
One of several things that I like about the FW: Rear electronic switch. I like it a lot, in mouth hold lights.
Any info on the mule you can share ATT.

I don't see the post that you quoted...
Anyway, TK has release updated thermal code a few days ago. Might fare much better. Can you please link me to this code?
As to disabling thermal control, setting the temperature limit sky-high should do the trick.
The official repository is on launchpad:

There are no binaries, just source code. If you can't compile the code by yourself feel free to PM me.
This was a smart move by Lumitop, to increase the head size to take the 24mm optic. I'm guessing that the beam will be as good as the D4 now, plus there's a little more material there to help with heat. I'm thinking that the throw should be a little better from the FW4 vs FW3 quad but I can't be sure. I'm looking forward to seeming the output specs from this light.
And a bit more than the FW3vn Triple.Specs will be a bit more than the FW3vn Quad versions since we have full optics.
I like this light but I know I will love the FW4Tvn will its here ;-)
And a bit more than the FW3vn Triple.
I have been google searching for discussion about compare XPL vs W1 vs W2 vs W2.1 vs SST20 vs etc, but I can't find the info in concise, plain discussion form that I am looking for, so just real brief: W2 versus W2.1? What's the difference?
I think this light will fit nicely in the gap between the D4V2vn quad W2 and the FW3vn triple W2.1.
Hello Patriot, thank you for your information. I couldn't wait for Vinhs' answer, I went ahead and ordered the W2 a few hours after I posted.
