[M4D deal ALIVE]: Astrolux S43S really US$ 27.00 + review video + pics + LEGO

Since deciding not to buy anything incorporating micro USB about half year ago I haven’t been that tempted…
My hatred for this connector is only a tad smaller then for mini USB :smiley: Hopefully S44 will not be as outdated in this matter.
Might snap though… :slight_smile:

Martin, Will S41/S42 body lego with S43’s head & tail cap?? Will 106xx Carclo Lens fits S43?

BG says opposite.
1 x Astrolux S43S 4x XP-G3 or Nichia 219C Copper 18350 Flashlight (Without 18650 body tube)

My A6/S41 18650 body is slightly shorter but does lego with S43 n tail cap

WOW - i totally missread that!

you are right...


and i tested the S41 body+tailcap and it worked .



not sure - Astrolux´ lens only has 2 legs

S43 is button head too, dual spring tailcap

Can you please Martin to find out if a tube from Astrolux S1, S41, S42 can be used for Astrolux S43.

He said in post #26 that S41 does work:

Thanks, I did not look at the previous answers.

That’s fine. I’d still like to know if S42 tube would work too. Do they all fit together?

The S43S head in the picture and video is obviously different…???

The head is the same, maybe you mean the bezel shape on the end? Martin is asking about that.

some S43S Lego ;)

Now we’re getting somewhere!
I’ve got an S42S I’m gonna cannibalize :smiling_imp:

I never picked up the S42S editions since the UI wasn’t’t good.

How hard was that bezel to get off? Mine feel glued on my S41S editions.

You have the S41S tailcap. Does it interfere with the e-switch…How’s that working?

no glue, but I remember the first Oring broke when I opened it (lubed the spare and it's good since then)

click the tailcap is like turning the original tailcap

but the switch is not glowing in off

I ordered a second with 219C for my S41S.
So the tail switch acts as a lockout?


Thanks! :beer:

yes

question-the copper head version has a longer turbo time or the same as the original allu version?30 seconds for turbo for both?

Since copper has 42% more heat capacity than aluminium and better heat transfer, it should last about 40-45 seconds more than the aluminium version, and cool off faster.
