BLF A6/Astrolux S1 turbo current

So I’ve been doing some mods on my Astrolux S1, and I’ve noticed that the turbo current seems a little low. I’ve upgraded to BeCu springs and swapped out the emitter for an XPL2 (which has a significantly lower vf as I understand), and I’m only getting ~4.2 amps with a 30Q cell, or ~3.9 from a GA.

Is it just me, or does that sound a little low? The only thing I can think of that could possibly be the problem is the switch, but I’m not sure.

How are you measuring the current? If with your long thin multimeter leads, those might be the problem of low readings

I guess that would make sense, but they are 16 gauge. Now I feel kinda stupid. :person_facepalming:
