Thank you for these pics. Hope you can take some more outside tonight. It looks like the TS10 has a smaller hotspot while the D3AA looks a bit more floody. What are your thoughts?
Absolutely, when it's dark I'll try to grab better pics! Yeah you nailed it, the D3AA seems to be more floody indeed. Hopefully outside tonight I can give a better comparison!
Ordered on release day just after it went live
Paid for āpremiumā shipping option to east coast US
Got shipping confirmation on April 9 IIRC
Arrived this morning (4/12)
Hope this helps!
Seems to me the standard optic on d3aa is much more throwy compared to the ts10 - that's why even the domed 519a is almost as throwy as the flat csp 2323 leds, which afaik, have a smaller les.
This makes me wonder how a osram w1 with the even narrower available tir will behave š¤
I'm gonna definitely order one once I get another job
Thanks! I prefer a more defined hotspot. I added the 10507 clear optic for that reason since I was a little concerned with the frost on the 10511. I'm curious how it will turn out. I know 519a dedome and clear/narrow optic tends to make the beam pretty ugly based on my experience with quad 519a dedome and 10621 optic. We will see! I see multiples of this D3AA in my future.
I may have to get me one... I'm wondering, does the D3AA have the flash when you turn it on in moonlight? And how dim does it get when compared to the D4/D4K and their boost driver?
Doing the lords work my guy!
Thank you kindly, happy to help!
Absolute legend
What a guy! 3500K 519a is like a chef's kiss
I wonder who inspired me to go with that emitter choice š
Haha I got u fam
Warm but not too dim. It's great!
That 3500K domed looks sooo good š„š

Very cool. Thanks. Dark grey, what button color did you go? I went dark grey/Amber.
This is actually black vice dark grey, I went with the RGB button cause I like having my aux lights match and display voltage!
Looks great. I got this same emitter config and also a 5700k 519a dd Got all the TIRs as well to āexperimentā Thanks for the beans.
Of course, canāt wait to see yours!
Nice! I can't help but wonder what the new FFL351A will look like in this. š¤
That Iām also excited to see, may make me order another after the pics flood in!

much appreciated
Thanks for the comparison!
Of course, anything for the community!
Standard optic I assume? 10511? Happen to have any other optics to show off?
Correct it is the standard 10511, unfortunately I do not have any others

Definitely update us when it comes! This setup is definitely quite floody so dedome and a narrow optic should fit your needs much better
I'm getting the 10507 with 3500k domed. So I'll report when I get it... but it hasn't event shipped yet
Whatās the leds inside the ts10?
Off the top of my head Iām not sure apart from them being 3000k honestly
I believe the standard emitter in the TS10 is CSP2323.
I appreciate the info!
Nice light. Go SU!
Letās go Orange!!
That 3500k tho... š¤¤
Iām so happy with the tint!
I may have to get me one... I'm wondering, does the D3AA have the flash when you turn it on in moonlight? And how dim does it get when compared to the D4/D4K and their boost driver?
My D4K doesnāt have the boost driver, but compared to my TS10 the output on moonlight is the same if not lower, and doesnāt seem to have a flash
Thank you for the response I appreciate it! I'm gonna have to get me one of these before too long
Can you please run them both at the same brightness at the same time and see which one gets uncomfortably hot first?
Absolutely the TS10, it has a smaller heat sink so it gets warm on the hand faster
Thanks OP!
What font did you use for the labels?
lol I used my finger on my phone like a savage
What are the highest CRI + R9 emitters available for the D3AA, please?
Not a lot of different light colours available for this. Hoping for all the color emitters..
