This X model with xhp35-HI has a smaller emitter and a bigger reflector so it should easily out throw the FT01.
It looks like this X model will also come with a 50.2 according to the thread title. Now that will be close to the FT01, but the X will still have the bigger reflector which means more throw.
We also don’t know about the drivers. The FT01 seems to be about 2200 lumen according to the Mateminco webpage. This X 50.2 might be the same 2200 lumen or it could be 3000 lumen. We’ll have to wait and see.
Oh, I don’t doubt that. I was just stating that a light with 96k cd beam intensity could also be considered a “mini thrower.” Alas, it looks like that 96k cd figure for FT01 is likely wrong, as was pointed out in the FT01 thread.
Yeah, 96kcd is a fairly meaningless number in my head because I can’t automatically relate it to a distance. I have to look at my notes or use a calculator to see what that distance would be. They showed the distance to be around 300 meters which seems about right to me so I didn’t truly understand what you were saying.
There are couple of issues mentioned but i don't think it is appropriate for me to announce at this stage. Most probably have to wait after FT01 and S43 launch.
