Mine says only good until the 20th… :arrow_right: :exclamation: :confounded:
I think i’m gonna put a LD-2 driver in mine.
Not sure yet though…
I did a quick ceiling bounce comparison between a S41 Nichia 219b and my S42 Nichia 219c with three different pairs of fully charged 18350s from three different brands - Enercig, Aspire and Efest.
The luxmeter says the S41 is consistently 25% brighter then the S42. That’s consistent with an outdoor run i did last night. There is a visible difference in output, and the tint is colder on the S42.
I was expecting the opposite!? 
Any idea wether my light has a problem or else?
Doesn’t matter anyway, my code does not work and if it did, any astrolux i would want i can get 20% +/- with the coupons available from one of the boys.
Can’t remember the exact percentage. But my 41 is brighter than my 42 in a ceiling bounce test too.
did anyone ever try to flash a new UI ???
It doesn’t appear to use any of the MCUs BLF has code for. So, no, flashing a new UI isn’t likely.
I just received a reply email too, but no mention of a coupon… 
I got the coupon offer, but as it stands I will probably never buy another Astrolux, and probably never order from BG. And a measly 16% off coupon is worse than any other deal that gets offered here…
I asked about it in my reply, they sent me a 15% coupon code.
…only applicable to a selection of lights….
Hmm…
A nice gesture that they know is no better than the typical.
Yeah, i edited my post…
Im pretty p!$$3d with BG and astrolux right now. got $65 in lights sitting unused, and most members here just say suck it up. Memory isnt listed in the A01 so NMM should be acceptable for a $20 AAA twisty light that originally had no memory. They are/will eventually send a new battery tube and USB cover, so $#!tty UI should be acceptable.
Bunch of sheep following the wolves.

Just got an email from bg. 2 unknown items just shipped.
I think its the tube and cover.
Did your “order” also show a cost of $1 for each item? I’m assuming the random order that’s now in my account (with no description of the items, mind you) is probably the USB cover and tube.
Yup, thats what the invoice showed.
The same here…
same for me
and for me
