FREEME ✌ ASTROLUX EA01 SST40 (2300lm)/ XHP50.2 (3500lm) TIR 26650/ 26350 Flashlight Group Buy - ALIVE!

Freeme-

I have to say - these lights are amazing! I like them, with their emitters and tir optics so much more then I thought. I’ve used both tonight for about an hour each and here are my thoughts-

-Half my lights are obsolete
-The sst40 5000k has the beam pattern of my Best looking sbt90 thrower
-The sst40 throws and looks 3/4 as bright and identical to my lumintop X9L!
—the sst40 is the same size as a KR1, throws just as far as the W2 KR1, is half the price and is twice as bright! Tell me that’s not awesome.
-the xhp throws almost the same (80%) as my Kr1, is the same size, and is probably 3-4 times brighter!

- the xhp50 looks brighter then my ft03 xhp50 , huge hotspot

  • the blue and Gray are beautifully done!

**The KR1 is one of my favorite lights, i compare the ea01 to it for those purposes only. Im not saying ea01 is better bc they are so different, im just attempting to demonstrate how fantastic the ea01 is.

These two lights are by FAR, MY 2020 lights of the year.

Thank you freeme!

Oh, and I ordered two more today,just to have them. First time I’ve ever done that too.

Would someone mind posting a beamshot and throw distance comparison between the EA01 and Lumintop GT Mini? I’m very interested to see how these two pocket throwers compare.

I wouldn't call the EA01 exactly a pure thrower... The GT Mini out-throws it by a good deal, but the EA01 has a bigger hotspot.

Lumintop GT Mini (XPL-Hi neutral-white ~5000k) beamshot

Astrolux EA01 (SST40 5000k) beamshot

(note: my EA01 SST40 has a defect: it turns bluish-purplish on Turbo, so it may not be performing as well as a good functioning unit)

(If I get another EA01 SST40, I'll try to post another video...)

for comparison:

GT Mini Pro (basically similar to a GT Mini in size, but uses XHP50.2 LED) beamshot

Can I please get the coupon for a blue xhp50 light. Thanks

My review.

Freeme-

Is there anyway if we take a count of interested members that astrolux would consider producing pocket clips for this light? I know it couldn’t “snap on” like say a traditional “o-brand” clip does. But I’ve put some thought into a design that would work, similar to how I modified my d4v2 to take a fw3a clip. It would be possible.

I would buy 4, if not more. I know we are talking a low cost/ low sell item, but I had to ask.

Please consider! And thanks again for this awesome deal.

I would be interested in at least 2 x pocket clips. As I’d like one for my MF01 Mini.

Both the Mini and EA01 have recesses below the tail cap (sadly not quite the same size on both). But I assume would be suitable for a snap on clip fitment.

Am I eligible for a code? SST in blue. Please and thank you…

Good call about that recess, and I would like a fifth then for my mf01 mini as well. The snap on clip could work too, would be an easier design as well. My thoughts on a fw3a style clip (screws down with tail cap) is a washer is included with the clip that fits in the tail cap, only 1-2mm wide that is the same thickness as the clip’s “band” that ensure contact from the battery tube to the tail cap. This is what I did for my d4 and it works completely ok. I like the style clips that screw in with tail cap, and if there is any gap in the threads between the tail and battery tube an print can be used.

Thanks Freeme

Hello. I’m a new member here and would like to request the discount code for 2 of these lights. One for each LED type.

Thank You,

Just got mine. Its very cool. Highly recommended.

BG has no plans of stocking quad LED version.

Very sad, I’ve been waiting for weeks to show up. EC03 is oversized for me and not even pretty. I wanted EA04 with SST40 :cry:

You can stilk order the quad SST40 as MT04 by Mateminco at Ali

Thanks, I know, but it’s much more expensive. There is currently no choice in types (colors).

Few more sets left on Aliexpress.

Freeme- Will these no longer be made anymore?

Is (4) xhp50 in this size light way too much of a novelty? I am really torn on spending $70 right now to buy the mt04… I keep comparing the output abs features To the anazing mf01 mini and am going back and forth to spend the $$

Honestly I don’t know. But having played about with the Lumintop FW21 Pro which has 3 x XHP50.2 I really don’t think it is worth it. The MF01 Mini is a way better out doors light. I’m guessing 4 x XHP50.2 would have no beam distance at all and just be a lot of heat for too much light close up.

I think people get too easily suckered in by the lumen numbers.
