The dimensions of the liitokala 4000mah 40a are very similar to the batteries I used so it should fit in the flashlight ok. I dont know how well they will perform in Turbo mode. Depends on their performance on high drain which may not be as good as the Samsungs.
I dont have any LiitoKala Lii-40A 21700 so I cant check
Samsung 40T Approximate Dimensions: 21.1mm x 70.4mm
liitokala 4000mah 40a Dimensions: 21.2mm x 70.4mm
The Sofrin C8F is a slightly larger flashlight with dimensions 149mm (length)*44.6mm (head diameter)
EC03 is smaller at 126mm x 48.5mm and lighter which may be important to you
Also the UI firmware differs. You may not prefer the flexible Andúril UI with ramping modes vs fixed in the C8F
I cant compare the runtimes as I dont have a C8F so cant comment on any differences sorry. I’m unsure as to which is more efficient and the affect of temp throttling. Maybeothers with both can better comment.
I like how it just puts out a massive wall of light with good distance as well. I ordered the 5700K last night because the tint looked so much better then the 6500K :confounded: I wish manufacturers would stay away from the 6500K emitters, all it does is spill out into the atmosphere causing a blinding effect with poor long distance sight in higher power torches. I just missed the, ships in 24 hours, AKA in stock. My order said will ship by Aug 20th meaning I will see it in three weeks or so.
Hi, can you please advise me? I have an Astrolux EC03 3xXHP50.2, but it only shines at peak power for a few seconds. I understand that performance will decrease for high temperatures. But the na.max power shines for about 10s. The second highest level also shines for a few seconds and then lowers to a very small level. So for longer use the performance is very small. Is not it too little?
The temperature settings don’t seem to come calibrated from the factory.
Try to adjust the temperature setting to the correct ambient temperature, then also adjust the temperature the flashlight is suppose to maintain when at high brightness.
(try raising to 60-65 degrees Celsius for temperature before stepdown)
Thank you for answer. I did not calibrate the temperature. I don’t know how to use firmware yet. I will try to study the instructions and try to calibrate the temperature. Otherwise as far as the battery is concerned. Which would you recommend as the best for this flashlight?
Where did you get the 50e2’s? I can’t find them anywhere.I’m using the plain 50E with great success, and look forward to the superior 50e2 if it’s possible to buy them.
I would also like to know where to buy the 50e2 batteries. Thanks After some research I find that the 50e is noted as being e2 on my liion order. Check out Liion wholesale.com.

Liion wholesale only lists the 50e. Have you received the “50e2” yet?
I believe that the 50e that is sold on liion site is the e2. Go to site and read description carefully. I would like to know how you interpret it. If you google Samsung 50e2 you will find they are 50e’s.
