[♛ FreemeGB] ASTROLUX FT03 XHP50.2 (3V) 4300lm 735m 26650/ 21700/ 18650 Flashlight - SHIPPED!

Sounds normal.
With a fully charged high drain battery they seem to draw about 8.5A-9.5A. It’s never exact with a FET driver.

Thanks.

Hi freeme,

I’m interested in this light. Thanks.

Using the Sofirn 26650 HD battery I only get 3650 lumens at 30 seconds with the 5700K Tint

Unfortunately I don’t own anything better than a 30Q which performs roughly the same.

How do you measure it?

Purchased, thanks freeme!

The same way you do with a TA Lumen Tube calibrated with Maukka lights. My lumen tube is within 2 lumens of both calibration lights

Okay, I can’t keep track of who uses what. (unless it’s in their sig)

Did you bypass the springs? After 30 seconds thats still a good result NW tint should be a little down on output vs the cw.

What’s everyone’s opinion on using 21700’s in this light as I’ve heard they will damage the springs?

My luxmeter shows 125.000 Lux and my ceiling bounce shows 4541 Lumen for my neutral white (5700k) FT03 XHP50.2
(both may be 5 to 10 seconds after start, using a unprotected Keeppower 26650 with 5200mAh).

For my FT03 with SST40 neutral white (5700k) I got 190.000 Lux and 2306 Lumen.

125kcd is 707 meters
190kcd is 871 meters

Both numbers are a little on the low side because the KP5200 is a pretty weak battery (high capacity plus old chemistry). It’s a safe battery, though. Performance is still good.

Your lumen numbers are too high. You might want to adjust your numbers down by around 25–30. That should put you in the right ballpark. Ceiling bounce can vary a lot as far as measuring lumens.

Interested, can I please have the coupon code. Thank you!

No bypass. I think I’ll leave as is for this light as it still can last around 5 min Turbo. I’m pretty happy with it.

Made a small montage comparing the FT03 SST-40 and the XHP-50.2 beamshots from the video posted by d_t_a credit goes to him for the video

BTW… TinyPic is shutting down! :open_mouth:

hello guys,

I received my FT03 5700k as well, the disturbing thing is when I unscrewed the head and on the PCB it shows SST40, I paid for xhp50.2

I don’t know how if this is really xhp50.2 ?

can anyone check if theirs was the same ?

On your box does it say XHP50.2 or SST-40? It’s possible banggood mixed up your order. It’s your chance to get a free XHP50.2 version if they did make an error

Can you show us a picture?

oh my box does say xhp50.2 5700k

This is SST-40

Note the 2 lines in the white part.

Just had a look at my XHP50.2 version and it says the same thing on the MCPCB. They’ve used the same one and placed a XHP50.2 on it.
