so on Aliexpress is the quad version not available anymore….
Me too.
You should have already shown what it is about …
Do you mean a photo? I have tried to capture it in a photo but with the only camera I have- my iPhone, I have not been able to capture it. It does not show (with the 5700k) at a close distance, only over 5-10ft. I think this makes it harder to blurt a photo of unless you have a solid setup for taking photos.
I was seeing it last night with my 5700K outside against the house from about 40 feet too.
I’m thinking about dedoming one of my xhp50 that is doing it, to see if it has any effect on the purple dot.
It will also lower the CCT which mine needs. A little blue looking.
Yes, the 5700k in ea01 looks very similar to my 6500k in a couple other lights. I don’t know if it is the optic effecting the color?
MT01 (SST40) arrived. It was so sharp, unfinished the bezel, that could the paper be cut with it. I had to grind with sandpaper. 
Otherwise, I like the beam profile. Outside, it can be very useful for hiking and walking.
Unfortunately, I measured that consume 19x as much electricity on standby as EC01.
MT01/EA01 consumption is 1,68mA Does not change. It seems the microcontroller does not go to sleep.
EC01 and SC31 Pro consumption is just 0,09mA at intervals jumps up to 0,15mA.
Each with low-level button backlit.
What are you measured? Is that average?
I measured mine EA01 (SST40), on standby it consumes 0,09 mA.
Thanks for the reply! Sadly, mine is faulty I tried to factory reset. It wasn’t better.
Yup Freeme, could I have a coupon for this light please. Thanks
Coupon code please.
Sent.
Mine has the center purple dot too. It also has a yellow corona, then further out is bluish. Yea, it sux, and it's a CREE XHP.
I sliced a SST-40 in my EA01 and it came out terrible - big loss of lumens and barely 4% increase in kcd. I was so disappointed, I restored it back with a domed SST-40 5000K from Simon. 87 kcd with a nice big spot is not so bad, plus about 2000 lumens and decent tint, and wayyy better beam than the XHP50.2.
The slice looked pretty good - it could have been the LED, dunno. The wires and phosphor were not touched and it sliced pretty low.
These artifacts are clearly visible in the video [( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡°) Reviews] Astrolux EA01 3500 Lumens Vs NEXTOOL 4TOOL ED20 2200 Lumens - Best Value 2021 . Maybe XHP not very suitable for this optics …
Dunno if the XHP50.2 is well suited for any optics, maybe a heavy OP. I know it looks about as bad in a SMO reflector.
Xhp50 in my smo reflector Astrolux’s looks pretty good. I have an xhp50 in one of my KR1’s it is looks great because the dome sits right inside the reflector opening. Maybe it’s this optic. I may still dedome the xhp in the ea01. I have had mixed feelings about dedoming sst40 because of the significance in lumen loss
DC Fix maybe? I hate to lose the throw. The xhp 50.2 EA01 driver would kill a SST40 right?
Dc fix will definitely deteriorate the throw, at the least the version of dc fix I have. I have to believe that the drivers are the same for both versions of the light. I’m sure Tom could tell us, but I doubt they used two different drivers while trying to keep the price nice and low…
