MF04
^^ those pics tell it all.
I notice that on my MF02S there is a large dark spot in the center of the hot spot that is even visible when pointing it to a white wall. I often see it when pointing it to trees. Not the best beam in the world, but ok.
i love how balance between both options, look like he canât make decision now
to me the mf04s is more pratical, it provides reasonable lumen and can throw far enough for most of people
Thank you for the comparison pictures, lusan_senna
For me, the XHP35 seems to be clearly better. Personally, I think, the green ring in the corona on both XHP70.2 model variants is disturbing.
Meanwhile, I picked the âpoor manâs Imalent R90Câ (a.k.a. HaikeLite MT09R XHP35 HI) in 5000K CCT to see, how it can throw. I expect that working similarly, like an Astrolux MF02S, but without the ugly beam tint changes (or with much less).
I could not set my mind up for an Astrolux MF04, but it is still tempting.
You forgot to say which one is the NW and the CW beam. It is supposed that the stronger beam was the CW, right?
lusan_senna , thank you very much.
It is very hard to choose.
I really like the power of MF04S, but I also like the throw of MF04. I do not have money for both.
MF04S- $ 169 with 30% discount
MF04 - $ 175 with 20% discount
You gave me the thought of the autonomy and the turbo mode. XHP35 is better at autonomy.
If I found 30% discount for MF04 I would buy it. Iâm thinking of having the strongest thrower, and on the way to buy a powerful flood.
Thorfire s70s I sold it (70$)
I was once in the same predicament, Buying one of each as I could afford it. One of each is a temporary fix and a little bulky on the portability side of things. The Imalent R90C has 880kcd and ~20k lumens, depending on who you ask. Yes itâs Imalent but there are no complaints; someome has a broken MF04S above. The R90C has more lumens than both of those others put together and noticeably more throw than the S. Itâs like an MF04S with the throw and lumens you wanted, and rather than the MF04 small hotspots. Youâll actually have some efficacy of the object youâre lighting up and itâs more impressive to everyone, theyâll admit it, except the guy who bought both Astrolux lol. You may want wait for a sale itâll go down to the low 200s.
I buy MF04 NW
131.4$ + shipping insurance (4.38$) Very good price.
We did not have enough money for a R90C. I know it was a better choice, but Iâm happy with the current election.
You will really like the light
One advantage of the MF04 vs the MF04s is better battery life, and far throw even at lower levels, which can be very helpful regarding runtime brightness and longevity.
Good choice⌠I also recommend mf04 over mf04s. The beam on the mf04 is amazingâŚ
Great price.
Enjoy it!
I will return with impressions in 2 weeks when we get there.
What batteries do you recommend? Currently I can not order samsung q30, Iâll get to customs and I have to pay taxes.
Liitokala NCR1865 3400mah without protection (65mm) are ok for MF04? (10$ / 4pcs)
I know for mf04s how big discharge was ok samsung q30. Thx
Hello bro,
Where did u get this Mf04 NW at this (131:money_mouth_face: price?
Thanx
We found a discount code, but itâs no longer valid. (only for NW) I prefer CW, but itâs more expensive (175-219$) (I do not really like NW)
Why not NW? I just want to buy NW (found price 168 usd)
It have better/longer throw with nicer yellow beam colorâŚ
Why u prefer CW?
CW Itâs brighter
Itâs the holidays and itâs hard. Just over a month I think itâs gonna come
@Coman, how about a review of your Xmas MoFo 04, you lucky dawg?
Nearly 4 months, and not a blink? lol
We need to light up the subject again! The throw king! J/K
Is there any led, driver and battery holder kit from xhp35 to xhp70.2?
It did not work for meâŚI got the MF04, my friend got the MF05. Foiled again. Of course I paid 160 on sale. He paid almost 600 dollars, but I will not divulge how, but it was not his money. Still he possessed it, so it does not matter how he obtained it.
