Haikelite MT09R Test/Review Beam video footage.

I know I’m almost drooling in anticipation at trying it for the first time! :smiley:

Terry,
If you have a chance, could you upload some photos of the light in hand? Or maybe with some common objects in the photo? Trying to get a grip (pun intended) on the ergonomics of the light. As I mentioned earlier, I love the idea of small form/big performance, and trying to decide if this fits the bill. I did see the opening of your video, which has some “in hand” shots.
Thanks!

Terry, when you receive the XHP35 version , please compare side by side with 70.2
I am sure you will do, thanks.

You can count on that... Each one will have their own uses. I am more than sure that the 35 high will out throw the 70.2 version and a lot of people want that extra throw over total lumen output. Others want a little of both. I believe that the 70.2 version will be a better choice for someone looking for a light that does both throw and still cover a pretty wide area with intense light.

The 35 high will be the customers that want a much tighter and much farther throwing light. Still enough power and light output to light up a smaller area at long distances. 600 meters for the 35 high should be a walk in the park.

Me I can never choose. I always end up finding some excuse that I need both when models like this come out LOL..

Any experience with the Astrolux MF-01? How does the 70.2 compare?

Not really much to compare... The Astrolux is a very bright light it would be better compared to the MT03. Both are massive flooders. The latest version of the MT03 using a TA style driver and 12k lumen output.

Honestly I would need an Astrolux here to compare the two.

To compare it to the MT09R I just can't think of but 1 outcome. The Astrolux would have much wider beam but much shorter. The MT09R with it's extra power and mucj better throw with 90000 candela verses a out 54000 candela.

Just 2 different types of lights.

I have an MT03 here but BangGood shipped it to me with a bad driver. I have a driver on the way, once I install the correct driver I would love to have a chance to do side by side comparison of the 2.

I reckon the MT09R 70.2 would have a wider beam than the MT01.
My Q8 has a wider beam than my MT01

You mean the MF01?

The tir lens of the mf01 puts most of the light into a large hot spot and the spill lighting is pretty weak. Typically you’ll need to move the light around to see to the left, right and around your feet if you walk at night and have the light around 600 to 1000 lumen.

The MT09R 70.2 should have a smaller hot spot combined with more spill light. Under the same circumstances I mentioned above, this reflector based light will allow you to hold it straight and still be able to see left, right and around your feet.

Think the MT09R should have a very similar beam shape as your Q8. Just with a slightly bigger hot spot.

Thanks Jason. My bad I meant the MF01.
Never use my lights anything besides max haha
If I need less light. I’ll pull out a smaller torch

Yeah... What he said....

Thanks. I was hoping it would help me choose which light to get. I’ll wait till the 35h review to make my decision.

Are you going to test the charger as well? Or maybe you can get more pics and specs?

My guess is mt09r xhp 35 hi will throw about 120k lux.

Remmeber xhp70.2 is brighter , floody, little bit throw.
Xhp 35hi is pure throw light…

If he includes one in the package with the 35 high sure will, can never have too many chargers...

I wish there was a way people could actually see that blast of light and massive chunks of aluminum this is made from. This is like their MT03 and MT07S very thick very heavy dense aluminum.

Best part is that it really does what it is supposed to do.

It does step down.. At 55 degreesC it will step down but as soon as it does you can kick it right back into turbo and it will stay their for another 60 seconds and step down again. You can do this over and over as long as you can stand the heat. So basically it will hold that max output as long as the batteries hold out. That is why I have not bothered with a run time test. You can just keep kicking it right back in all you want to.

When the 35 high arrives I do need to check lumen output after step down. I realized this morning I had not done that...

600 meters??? Have the specs on the XHP35HI version been downgraded since it was announced on the original feeler page as being “The throw of triple 35-Hi is over 300 000 cd, over 1000 meter distance, with 7500 lumens.” at HaikeLite MT09R Group buy Feeler(First Beam Shots)12-29-2017

Read the entire context of the message... I am comparing it to the 70.2 version or any other light that has a 600 meter est. throwing range.

And I have not yet tested the 35 high myself so the calculated distance could be a bit lower or higher... I will know for sure when the sample arrives.

My bad… i said xhp35 hi version will be 120k lux… this light have deep reflector. I think its more of 250k lux in the throw version.,

I am past ready to get the 35 high here the first test will be the distance and candela calculations...

I’m really interested in the Flood performance of the MT09R XHP70.2 compared to the Astrolux MF01, Noctigon M43, and Haikelite MT03. I want a powerful flood light.

Great video btw!

just head over to the group buy page and order up .
