[♛ FreemeGB] ASTROLUX MF06 CREE High Power Flashlight with Active Cooling - Not Quite there Yet

Maybe September. MF01S and MF01 mini have to happen first.

I heard they are still working on this project.

In. Terested!

September????!
It will be worth the wait.
Im In

Haha, definitely not that fast. Maybe Dec if lucky.

Please put me down for one. I’m interested.

Active cooling, huh? We'll see.

See what? Whether it will have a fan or whether the project will get canceled?

Any new news about this project? Or did they finally cancel it?

I all but forgot about this. Would love an update.

seems they canceled it what happend ??

It is hibernating.

shame… the mf03 went to hibernation aswell :confused:

MF04v2 will be known as MF05 model instead.

MF05 preorder will happen end of next month.

Active cooling "mini monster" is in pending state.

Interested. Thanks.

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.

Lets see what happens.

The active cooling light was MF05.

MF03 was the big 8 cell, 12 x 70.2 plus single xhp35-hi light.

Interested

Good luck with that. Keep in mind this thread is almost 2 years old. Expectations for production are quite low.

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.
