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

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?

I will update list in about 3hrs time. BG need the figure soon.

According to here on the BLF GT90 sale page, the head diam is 135 mm and the reflector I.D. is 118 mm. Rated throw is 1850 kcd. I don't have one, didn't buy or was given one, even though it's stated to be running my firmware, but then again, it says it runs Anduril, so who knows...

I mean 17% more throw than the GT90 is good but is it worth the extra size? Instead of making the reflector so deep they should’ve made it wider IMO. I guess we’ll just have to wait for reviews as we can’t always trust manufacturers numbers. I do have a feeling it might be a bit underrated. Hopefully I’m right.

17%? You mean 39%? 1800 kcd -> 2500 kcd, 700/1800 = 0.39, or 39% bump. What extra size?

Where do you get those #'s?

Interested

the head diameter is maybe only 10 mm larger than MF04, MF04 looks much better to use and is probably much lighter

I would love to see a smaller and more affordable version in MF04 size too.

I meant throw, not intensity. I don’t know the size but the depth seems quite a bit more. Weight could be more than the GT aswell. Hopefully it’s not though. I’m sure it’ll be a great mlight and the new throw king but I hope the performance difference is enough to justify the extra size compared to the GT90 and K75.

I am getting more and more exciteder about this light!

Size: 426mm x 160mm (OD) x 64mm

Weight (w/o battery): 3.4kg / 7.49 lb including handle

K, that's pretty big. Just drew it on paper and my hand is just a little bigger at ~ 185 mm.

So 160 mm MF05 vs. 135 mm BLF GT90 vs. 126 mm K75

2500 kcd vs. 1800 kcd vs. 1500 kcd
