Thanks. Yes the reflector is rather shallow. Hopefully this will be a combination light, I like the pronounced hot spot and hate wasting lumens on the side spill. I like the beam profile of Nightwatch NSX3 , also 3 emitters but sst-40 , a large hotspot that travels quite a distance. Hate everything else about the light though. I guess we wait and see what the beam profile will be.
Very interested
Maybe you should look at the FT03… bigger but designed for throw. If you want smaller a simple C8 or GT Mini may fit your needs better?

In post #137 I expressed interest but don’t see my name on the list in post #2. I’d like to be added please.

This will be significantly more floody than the NS43.
Look at the cd/lm between the 43 and 53:
Yes and that’s the reason I got the 43. The beam profile is ok but can’t change any settings on the light, the turbo comes on first, then high, medium and low- that’s ridiculous. And the modes don’t make any sense. Turbo is 6,000 lm , next one down is about 3500-4000 and next one down is about 700 lm, and the low is about 250 lumens. How come no mode for about 2,000 lm or a 1,500lm which could be sustainable with this size head. On 3500 lumens it still heats up rather fast and reduces the output. And on 700 lm it’s often not bright enough. Go figure…the Wild trail BLF d80v2, being similar in shape seems like a light that’s been much better thought through. Granted it only gives off 3500 lm but it is still one of my favorites right now.
Yes I can see the astrolux will be more floody but I guess I will still get it out of curiosity or for a gift for someone who likes flood. $30 something seems like a nice price point.
I don’t see myself… How do you search that list?
I juts added your name in the list. It is under Interest List Tab on
List is best view on desktop/notebook. 
Replied.
Possibly interested!
