✌ FREEME - ASTROLUX MF05 SBT90.2 7000lm 3000m+ Thrower Searchlight - $390 (restocked) + Free Charger

RLT will about double the throw! I wish they someone would start using that in their flashlights.

Oh, so you were serious. Patent enforcement is incredibly difficult in China. This is why you see Chinese companies making clones of everything. Even giant wealthy companies like Apple have trouble enforcing it. This is why you see clone iPods, iPhones and Airpods. It is very common to see clones of flashlights as well. They really don’t care about patents.

Seriously I wouldn’t mind seeing a manufacturer slap the RLT collar in their flashlight. While I support patent laws for the most part, but from everything I read about Wavien/RLT, this patent is unreasonable greed hindering progress of the entire flashlight community. I pitched the RLT idea to several manufacturers before but unfortunately no luck. The big manufacturers like Acebeam and Olight will surely not knowingly infringe upon a patent but seems like even the small brands don’t want to risk it.

These enthusiasts lights sell only a few hundred max. It wouldn’t even be worth the time and money to sue them so I think there really isn’t a risk…. Imagine a GT Mini sized light throwing 500+kcd… will never happen without the collar.

Any news? :slight_smile:

Mid July.

Interested for this kind of light

I’m interested, I’d like to add a big mega thrower to my collection. I don’t need one…but I want one.

Taken in June.

If that 3162m rating is correct, it’s pretty disappointing considering the size of it.

Why do you think that is disappointing?

PRO Pack!

Oh my.

You get an Astrolux branded shower cap?! :smiley:

I wonder if it can reach the distant tower, circled? I notice the SBT90.2’s beam “floods out” at its “tip”. I was hoping with a large enough reflector, it would be a tighter hotspot. This hotspot looks as “loose” at its tip as my Acebeam K75.

3162 meters is 2500 kcd - I don't think that's too bad at all. Dunno what the head diam or reflector I.D. is though, compared to a BLF GT90.

How much is GT90 ID?
