Astrolux MF03 interest list

its still a prototype and they are fooling around

maybe it comes cooled - maybe not

OMG, you’re killing me. Just got my BLF GT and now you’re gonna throw this at me. Damn you.

I think they would need to decide that at the very beginning of the project, not this far along. You have to design air inlets and outlets to achieve airflow across special sized and shaped heatsinks.

With the current design, about all they could do is strap a little fan on the side of the head and have a special plug for it. That’s not going to be very efficient, though.

They could boost efficiency by enclosing the fins on each side of the fan so all its air is forced out the opposite side. It would not look pretty, though.

Didn’t we have a picture of the cutaway design? I thought we did.

EDIT: I just realized this is the interest list. There is a different thread about the design.

130mm GT Killer! :+1:

Interested.

the GT development was noticed by the other manufacturers as well.. ;)

i was told they planned to stay quiet until the gt groupbuy is finished because they do not want to interfere.

someone did not. :(

I can’t believe the number of times people on the blf recently are accusing folks of being racist. I don’t get it. An innocent typo of Chinese new year by m4dm4x and instantly accusations of racism is leveled. I have seen similar comments in 4 threads recently. There is plenty of racism to find in our world today, there is no need to concoct a reason to be offended here.

How is it gonna kill the GT?

The GT kills the TN42 due to the large size difference.

This new light looks the same size as the GT. Maybe it will be “equal” to the GT as far as distance is concerned?

If it has a 130mm reflector it will indeed throw further given equal LED output, just the nature of the beast.

That said I agree that “kill” is a bit hopeful at best.

The real question is will it have the same quality driver and firmware as the GT along with the build quality?

Ah, you think the reflector is 130mm. I was thinking the GT has a 135mm head diameter, so they are about the same.

Why are we thinking the reflector is 130mm?

Because that’s what I would do to kill the GT 130mm Reflector! :wink: :+1:

I have no idea, that is what was posted above, not sure why they would say 130mm if it was not the reflector since that would be smaller like you said.

Appears to be a “M” on the button. Perhaps Matmenco is up to something

Interested!
