Oh this looks so like Haikelite is the manufacturer.


thats what i tried to express with my first sentence ;)

do i need to rephrase it (english is not my native language)

Child like behaviour from my side; just look at the pictures and got excited and posted without reading!
Interesting to see a new collaboration from Astrolux!

And I just ordered an FT03 & and Mini GT. I sooo don’t need another thrower.

…wanders off to fill out the form.

Hmmm, driver says constant current. It’s not using a FET with NarsilM?

is this a better thrower then ft03 ? not sure i like the haikelite design and why work with them sudden? whats the benefit for us ?

Banggood states the reflector is 60mm in diameter and the head is 65mm in diameter overall. Same as the FT03. No ramping like the FT03 its a hard sell to step backwards and charge more. WTF Astrolux.

Since when is an sst40 outputting 3000 lumens?

Wasn’t the FT04 announced back in 2018 way before the FT03?

FT04 =! MF04 ;)

has anyone tested a P2 bin yet?

I only found N bin numbers from last year

Interesting - lots of the new Astroluxes have a very Haikelite aesthetic to them… would be curious to see how this stacks up against the FT03 as the reflector sizes are the same per everydaysurvivalgear’s post

I’m excited for the P2 bin SST-40. The dedomed version was used in the Maxtoch Archer M1 that was same size as the D1S and GT Mini but out throws them. Will this be dedomed?

Also why did HL decide to use a proprietary charger instead of USB. That is a deal breaker for me.

interested

Does the P2 Bin really delivers 3000 lm? WOW! Would love to see confirmation.

No, not really.

The absolute highest you can get from it in a light is around 2500-2800 lumens:

The lack of a e s t h e t i c s makes me skip this deal. Haikelite needs to work this part out, their designs are imho not very appealing. Like the recent model with blue bezel and that bling blang golden switch :confounded:

Feel the same way. Everything after the SC26 is just meh to me.

I would be skeptical of those measurements because we have no idea how his pvc tube was calibrated. This is an important bit of info.
