Astrolux "MF04" discussion thread

JasonWW okok u win.

It’s a contest? Lol

I think if enough people ask for it they might make it. Or at least figure out the cost to make it and see if we still want it.

Maybe do a poll?

So we may ask Freeme soon again to make another form…for the ones who also want a silver bezel ring? (just kiddin’) :stuck_out_tongue:

I already asked for a SS Bezel. ;)

I dont see a need for a SS bezel, to me its solely a cosmetic feature, and i dont use my flashlight to look good.

Very interested. I'm in for one. How does the reflector compare to the illustrious BLF GT? Diameter, finish, depth.. I'm too excited to read onwards for answers, forgive if I find them that way. I've always been fanatical about searchlights, so naturally this has my interested piqued.

Thanks for your GB and deal page!

Thanks… i think astrolux read your comment… mf04 beam look great…

Just read a comment on aliexpress that his MF04 (MT35 Plus) CW was more NW than CW.

Here is my mf02 neutral white and mf04 cool white…

Thanks for the comparison pic

Cool pic. Are the brightness levels low enough that the hot spots in the pic are really this size?

No.: it look different in person…

If you put both on the lowest level, can you see any difference in the hot spot size?

The bigger reflector should produce a slightly smaller hot spot (in theory) which is where the extra throw distance comes from.

It would just be nice to confirm this theory since I don’t have two so closely similar lights.

Has anyone measured their 04?

Yes, lots of times. You want lux or lumen?

Hardusvd70 measured 1.36mcd on his CW MF04.

I wanted candela but wow….1.36mcd is a big number seems like a possible miscaculation :stuck_out_tongue:

Go here and read down. [PART 2] Official BLF GT Group Buy thread. Closed, but Public sales open! - #2208 by Hardusvd70

He got the same candela at 10m and 25m.

I do the 25m calculations in post 2217.

Incredible! Honestly thought it would only do maybe 1.1mcd max.
So even more throw than a stock GT……. :money_mouth_face:

Mine doesn't go passed 0.9 million.. I really need to measure again.. and probably buy another meter.
