@bugsy36, I don't know you personally, but I know enough to know that you're a very active member here and maybe even a veteran of the forum (too lazy to go stalking your profile right now)....so I hope I don't get banned for asking this....or incur your wrath in some fashion....but....
what exactly does this mean above?
"The Astrolux MH10 still produced a faint nut pleasingand usable spill. It is claimed that this Astrolux MH10 will reach 365m."
I mean....I could guess....but I just don't wanna......
But in all seriousness....thank you for the awesome review! Been curious about this light!
What other protected battery would you be looking to replace the NCR18650B withā¦ Or would you say not worth buying different batteries (Iāve got a few of these Panny Bās)
Whatās it like at closer range (say 20metres) - is there useable flood ?
Looks like a very cool little light. Itās a rebrand of the new Imalent DN11. Did yours come with a holster? I saw another review where it had one included. Not sure how Banggood sells this light so inexpensive as the Imalent version sells for $21 more. I need to get my hands on one of these. Would be cool to see how accurate the lumens display is compared to what comes out the front.
For reference (I do not know if my new lux meter is very reliable), I have meassured 3 lights; 21.000cd Astrolux MH10, 13.000 cd with Manker U11 and 28.500 cd with Nitecore MH20GT
Too bad you seasoned flashlight connoisseur do not review lights that you do not like, not only would that be very helpful but now I have to assume lights you did not review are not good enough (so please vendors and manufacturers send the man lots of lights to review so we know what can be bought )
Maybe a thread where you say what lights you have turned down with a few words why to guide us better?
Thanks for review. Iām disappointed the UI, no quick access to turbo & moon light mode!
OLED display more like a gimmick to me; it canāt function as location indicator when in the dark environmentā¦ā¦just my own opion!
Great review, thanks I didnāt know about this one yet.
Is this the ābudgetā answer to the Nitecore MH20GT?
Sure looks similar, different switch and UI but pretty much the same shape and size:
MH10:ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦109mm x 32mm
MH20GT:ā¦ā¦ā¦111mm x 31.8mm
Strange too that they named it the same as a different Nitecore model (Nitecore MH10)
What are the ālock / unlockā icons on the lower (most rearward) touch switch? That button is only used for ramping downwards?
I like the smooth bezel, but it doesnāt look shiny like stainless, whatās it made of?
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦.
Iām not sure how much I like this UI. No quick way to just change modes? Better would have been having at least 2 click-able presets (low & high) plus a click-able shortcut to the highest output without ramping or having to rely on memory.
Plus I think they got the on/off backwards - better would be single tap ON / double tap OFF, isnāt turning a flashlight on quickly more important than turning it off?
A real interesting light though, a lot of great attributes.
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦.
NOTE: The $35 price was only for the first 50 orders, not the first 100. (There are currently 65 orders, so now itās up to $37)
Iām happy to see the neutral tint is available for pre-order, hopefully theyāll have a pocket clip for it too.
side switches can easy make a light go on in ones pockets.
The double click is clever way to avoid accidental turning on since a rapid double lick is much less likely to happen.
No, I wonāt expect all flashlights have functioned as location indicator, but IMALENT DN11 have OLED build-in, it should not too diffcult to add location indicator function. I guess I expecting too much from IMALENTās OLED disply & UI!
Sorry, here were are talking about Astrolux MH10 . I expecting that I have for a incredible low price,ā¦.others āPremiumā not offer this and cost moreā¦.I have not see you there expecting moreā¦ā¦
Makes sense, I have several side switch lights that suffer the āpocket activationā issue because the switch gets bumped ā¦.but this has a ātouchā switch not a regular button. (like one of those āTouch Lampsā where you just touch the metal part to turn it on) Iām assuming that would take care of the āpocket activationā issue? But Iām not sure what it would take to accidentally turn this on.
