Astrolux "MF04" discussion thread

Any deals on Fenix?



wrong thread M8!

there you go: https://budgetlightforum.com/t/-/31589

MF02 is +1000 M light, that put it in the thrower class with plenty of reach for my needs.

But clearly i haven’t seen anything yet when it comes to throwers :smiley: but the next class up mostly seem to be too impractical to me with the “much” larger heads.
Outside of fun i am having a hard time seeing what i could use such a light for, i am not going search and rescue for sure, and even if i did i cant see why my U21 or MF02 should not be enough for that.
Could also just be the pictures of the big lights that mess with my brain and when i get to hold one its not so bad after all, i do have big hands myself to match the rest of my 1.9 M size.

@ M4D M4X: Looking good!!!

@ SparkyDK: I have throwers from pocketable for the holiday (Sunwaymen T25C - 160Kcd) up to Nitecore TM36 Lite (dedomed XP G2 @ 849Kcd) and, more recently, the BLF GT.

The latter two do not go with me on holidays - my wife would kill me - but they are great to have and play around with.
Especially during the German TLF Forum’ annual meetings.

This Astrolux I want to have so I can modd it with either Osram Oslon BF or Ostar Q8WP.
Probably the latter. With that (proper focus & centering will be the issue) it could reach up to 2Mcd.

Cheers

What’s the price? Ballpark.

Change me to uninterested.

Hmmm… I adjusted the image for 1 to 1 scale and over imposed my GT to compare, it seems that it may have a deeper reflector than the GT… Interesting, do you have the actual dimensions of the reflector?

all info i have i share with you...


plus 1

Looking good :+1:

I really like the design

“Osram Oslon BF or Ostar Q8WP”

Thats what i would expect it to ship with, without knowing too much about this addiction those seem like a good idea for emitters on a devise like this.
Unsure if that will screw up the prize, it probably would.

I do find my MF02 do fine for my needs, so the MF04 have to outperform it by a good margin, or at least have a really good prize for me to double up on the long range arsenal of mine, after all i only have 2 hands and my backpack are only 35L as i like to travel light.

I’m a fan of Osram Oslon flat black . I have a light with it. This configuration would easy get 1M+cd

Is this GB going to happen?

when the flashlight is ready to be sold i will have a nice price ;)

pretty sure i registered for this providing the price ik OK

Interested

Sherman, you have to have a bit more patience. New flashlight designs can move pretty slowly. If there’s no new updates in 2 or 3 months, then there might be a problem. If you expect everything to move fast all the time, you will just be disappointed. :wink:

Yes count me in with an Olson Black

It is come… :sunglasses:
