Interested in SFT40 version of the FT03

Have you heard any news about this? Are they still waiting on the SFT Leds?

THIS COMING AUGUST! They already reserved 3000pcs.

Interested in SFT40. My first real thrower. Hope it’s good!

I made a FT03 with the SFT-40 its a great combo i got almost 430kcd (rated at 400kcd by Banggood). I think the SFT-40 is brighter than the SST-40 when direct driven. I reflowed a SFT-40 onto the 26mm board and the focus is good, with a good cell the amperage is a bit high hitting 10.5amps which i feel is to much for the LED probably around 9.5amps is the sweet spot.

Overall i already liked the FT03 its a great light at a great price and i would highly recommend the SFT-40 edition, of course there is no warm white or neutral white SFT-40 yet.

Feel free to remove the video from this thread, i dont want to spam the thread for no reason.

I think there has been a revision to the driver of the FT03 the newer driver is similar to the FT03 mini driver, i have a newer FT03 and its different to my original driver.

That’s great news Freeme! :partying_face:

I am wondering if they are also planning to offer the FT03 light with the XHP-50 Hi led (dedomed version)

Could you please ask? Thanks! :slight_smile:

@Everydaysurvivalgear - Nice review !

I think your review is worthy of having it's own thread....having it in here might be lost to heaps of others who might be interested in this light.

Interested in SFT40 version of the FT03.

Thanks FREEME

Very interested in a new Astrolux FT03 with SFT40, especially if it also comes in Blue.

I already have one Green and one Black FT03. I want another FT03 in Blue.

Do you have the kcd #'s of before the mod and what LED?

The SFT-40 is a beast, yes, it's binned the same, I believe, as the SST-40 even though there's no dome (usually you drop 10-15% or so), and it can take more amps, so you get higher #'s with an unregulated driver.

Actually it's a re-designed LED from the SST-40. Wondering if they will come out with a domed version to replace/upgrade the SST-40.

I got the same numbers from my original FT03 as you, around 230kcd and like 2300 lumens. The light i modded a bought a few months back i still have another FT03 with a sliced XHP50.2 in it. I did have a CSLPM1.TG in there but i could not get it focused on the 20mm MCPCB.
Wait and see if Cree release a 3v XHP50.3 HI.
