ALIVE: Astrolux S42 groupbuy: US$ 25.95

I wonder how this would fit…?

Aloha Martin,

Think I might have slipped between the cracks. Could I please get a code?

Disregard, please.

Thanks!

I haven’t seen any pics of a hammer, all I see is (probably) a 1/4-20 threaded end.
That’s not a bad thing as it’s the standard for photography mounts and, (at least in the US) an easy to find screw size.
Maybe they’ll throw something in that wasn’t pictured.
If not, the threaded end shouldn’t be a problem and may allow the light to be adapted to unique applications.
Mine shows as On Backorder so this should give me some time to think about what to do with it.
It would have to be a pretty extreme situation to feel comfortable using a flashlight as a hammer so I’ll be looking for less violent uses.

I think something is coming, small, like a trustogene tip, I hope

I’ll look

no points and still backorder

thats a bit boring with banggood as their shipping getting slower over the last month compared to aliexpress or gearbest or DH gate they all faster not mostly less then 2 weeks

Also have no points and still backordered.

Hey they came in stock. They didn’t send me a notification email but I just bought two with the code Thanks!! Pretty much 2 for one!! I used your email link like you said to do

Hey mate, did the Nichia version came back in stock too then got sold out again or just the XPG versions get back in stock?
Got the XPG3 version anyways. Will get the Nichia when it gets back in stock

The Nichia version says it should be in June 11th…I got the xpg 3 … I was trying to see the difference between the 3 as I’m new to all the led names… maybe you can explain the differences… thanks

the points were maybe because I pre-ordered mine?

Both the XPG2 and XPG3 are made by Cree. 3 being the newer version than 2. The XPG’s in this light are around 6500k/Cool White (the colour temperature of the LED) .
219C is made by Nichia and the colour temperature is 5000k/Neutral White. Usually the warmer the colour the better CRI (Colour Rendering Index). Objects look how they are supposed to look.

Cooler colour temp LED usually produce more lumens but people on here pick CRI over an extra few lumens. Guess that’s why the Nichia version are always sold out before the cool white lights.

Thanks I’m trying to learn these led’s … I know about the colors they produce by the k number … I would of wanted the neutral white as well… but I’m ok with the cool white I ordered too…I realized the 18650 tube doesn’t come with it and I have to wait for it to come back in stock… I’m sure this has really really low run time on turbo with the 16340s …

If I remember correctly. The S41 on a 18350 runs 8 mins on turbo lol
So this light would be somewhere similar

I had the extension tube in my cart two days ago. Went to add some other stuff to the cart. Went to pay and it was out of stock again. Annoyed at myself I wasn’t faster. Next time is comes back in stock. Buying it straight away lol

Oh damn you have to buy quicker lol I just seen a post a couple days on a16340 with 1300mah … I want to find a way to buy them … that will defiantly help the run time on my on the road m3 and this light if I decide to use that configuration … Test/review of Aspire INR18350 1300mAh (Black-yellow)

This S42 runs a 18350 battery, which is in the link you post, but the M3 runs a 16340 (smaller battery), a 18350 does not fit in there.

Oh ok … I over looked that I just seen it can take 16340 too… I never had a light with a 18350. I guess I’ll look into them a bit

Ordered an xpg3 s42, thx mad max!
