Its confusing, for the MF01, the v2 us named MF01S, for the MF04S It is only another LED option of the MF04.
But perhaps the MF05 is only another LED option of the MF04 too.
An this was the former thread of the MF03 with active cooling.
With cheap large round proven copper-core generic CPU heat sinks (with fan) being available for several years, I never understood why a flashlight manufacturer didn’t source several to build into high powered flashlights. It would eliminate a huge amount of R&D and greatly reduce the complexity of machine/CNC operations. The net result should be a less expensive light for them to build with much higher profit margins, while still being sold at a reduced price to consumers. Not to mention the light actually being effective at transferring heat efficiently.
I ran it by Acebeam twice with some discussion but it never gained momentum. Maybe Astrolux could pick up the pieces and consider that a viable option.
