Astrolux S41 Black on Banggood app for £16.50 / $23.38

Astrolux S41 in Black - Banggood app only. No codes so you can use your points.
I’ve been wanting one of these for a while now, and saw whilst on on the web that it was £16.50 on their app.
Ordered obviously, would be rude not to for that price. :wink: I have had my eye on it for a while, and so far that is the best price I have seen.
Hope it helps someone!

I saw it 2 weeks ago for even less, but i already gave out too much at the time…

It was on Banggood for US$22.95 in December.

I have seen it cheaper too slightly, but always with code, and when you try the code it’s void. This is without code too, so you can use points.

I have some protected 10a keepower 18650’s - will this suffice, of do I need something with more grunt? Any suggestions please?

That S41 really developed into a great light. I just bought a 2nd one.

Those KP’s should work. Don’t know if the light will trip the circuit or not. I think the driver has low voltage protection and will shut off when battery voltage hits 2.8v, so a protected cell isn’t necessary.

I bought the S42 and the UI is horrible. I thought the S42 was the upgraded version of S41. What makes the S41 so good compared to the S42?

Didn’t know bg had an app. Are prices always cheaper in the app?

In S42 they used electronic button for UI that is designed for clicky. I partialy solved its biggest problem, for me at least, by using clicky tailcap from A6 with the S42. Now I can easily turn it off from moonlight as well as from anywhere else. And looooong press to OFF is gone, as well as the big drain from from the dragon breath blinking switch now is solved.

It became nice light and much lighter than S41 with its heavy copper head. But I think both are fine for me with nice neutral Nichia high CRI Leds. I like their tints and how floody they both are. Long 18650 body from A6 fits both too.

And if you really hate the S42 UI (I don’t) you can get another driver here Bistro HD OTSM/Narsil drivers

I bought them soon after their release, and now again, last December when I paid $22.95 for S41 and $24.95 for S42 during Black Friday sales.

I would love to change the driver on my S42 but unfortunately I cant solder

I have the s42 cu , installed the lighted tail switch kit and love it. it is my bedside light, and yes i like the ui so ymmv

Thanks for that Robert :+1:

Sometimes it’s cheaper - it usually says on the actual website (is how I noticed it) basically it said ’get this cheaper on the app, right next to the web price, or under it. - so I used it.

I’ve gotta try this tonight :slight_smile:

It’s such a great light with the new driver! I love it so much I bought another one to mod.
