M4D M4X deals - Astrolux WP1 and WP2 LEP

Interested in the new design.

I love it!!

Suggestion: Add full knurling to the body tube. Unlike with the tailcap switch FW3A’s cigar grip, the most natural position to hold a side-switch light is a handshake grip with your palm around the body tube and thumb on the button.

  • With the cigar grip, you don’t necessarily need knurling on the body tube since the goal is for the fingers to slip up to the raised tailcap with the thumb on the tailswitch.
  • However with a handshake grip, the light will feel a lot more secure in the hand with knurling on the body tube.

Lack of knurling on the body tube was one of the major criticisms with the Emisar D4 that was fixed in the D4V2. It would be best not to make that mistake with this new light.

keep them ideas comming! ;)

I would really like a side switch FW21 Pro version in silver to gray, xpl hi or similar. I also like the smoothness of standard version through. Bought 3 Convoy S2+ butt button lights, that is enough :neutral_face:

Well the XHP35.2 domed ones are same 12V, same rated Vf, same rated amps, so nothing new or better (https://budgetlightforum.com/t/-/52143). If the HI version was 3V and could take very high amps, then it becomes interesting. Something like a SBT90.2 but in a reasonable size package at a reasonable cost.

News on the XHP35.2 HI version in the EOL doc from CREE: https://www.cree.com/led-components/media/documents/CREE-PCN-1058.pdf. Haven't found or seen a spec yet on it though, but if it's like the HD, nothing new, might even be worse.

I too like the idea of a side switch for a light of this size. Keep us posted with the led ideas please!

Were they thinking of a triple XHP50.2 initially?
Is the SB90.2 made for more of a thrower?

I’d love to know more about the idea behind each design. I’m not up on all the new emitters.

As the happy owner of the XHP50.2 in 18650 I see the SB90.2 in 21700 as the logical step up. In fact a big WHY NOT? A question to you Martin or any of our experts. How many lumens do you expert from this set-up?

Skylumen squeezes 3 SBT90.2 intonthe FW21 PRO

looking forward to see the numbers he can get

I would buy either type of fw21 pro if it came with high CRI, neutral white emitters. I don’t need 10,000 lumens, I’d just hope the extra mass will permit a higher sustainable level.

Did anyone actually used a FW21 Pro?

10k lumen in a palm size light off a single cell seems like a stretch or a recipe for a massive extinction event. Something’s gota go wrong! Is there any review?

I already have a compact triple XHP50.2 3V light, modded Amutorch X9, smaller than this light. 10K? No big deal - mine hit 11K.

maybe matt smith willd o a review soon, he usually gets a sample for most lumintop lights…

Matt will make a review soon

i have a very early Sample which is not as well performing as the production units...

Are the fw21pro much bigger then a fw3 series Martin

Would really like if it had the option to change the clip for a lanyard holder like on the Noctigon KR4.

Agreed, a clip for a head that flairs out that much is hard to really use.

Got my FW21 Pro, in my head i thought it would be bigger than what it is.
