+ 1 XPG3/ with the 18650 extension

I’ve been considering an S41 or E14 but have been put off by the complaints on the Nichia tint (green), among other issues (mixed emitter’s, and emitters burning out) I’m really only interested in using with 18650.

It appears with this new version we may see some improvements, the stainless looks great but I’m afraid it would be too heavy to actually want to carry like the SS/Cu X6 is (that one just sits, it’s way too heavy to carry around)

If it’s true that this will be an improved version I’m hoping for it to also be made available with both tubes in aluminum.

“Manufactured by new supplier”

Can we please know who the new manufacturer is?

The_Miller · August 28, 2016, 6:31pm

Maybe they do not wish to be very open about that given the negative wrap a certain brand has gotten by doing some specials pretty flaky?
Bit I bet it starts with an I

Ι thought so , too , TheMiller .
Based on the latest Astrolux flashlight…

I have the E-14 Nichia and it is not glued nor green. I have been happy with it and it has become my “go to” light when I need one.

I orderd the 18650 tube and use that when I want longer run times. Most of the time it is in the 18350 configuration which I find very convenient to carry and use. I put a label on each of my batteries to identify the purchase date and find that the 18650 tube is a little tight when accommodating a labeled battery .

I could go for a nichia with heat treated 18650 tube!

beam0 · August 29, 2016, 5:01am

I was wondedring if the LED’s in the Manker E14 version could be a different bin or batch, vs the Astrolux S41 version.

Gerrh · August 29, 2016, 5:18am

Could you put me down for a gift box as well? Would like a second nichia 219c so two nichias, one cree heat treated.

ilovejesuschrist · August 29, 2016, 5:30am

I’m interested, one S41S Nichia And 18650 tube Please

lumiere · August 29, 2016, 5:40am

Please put me down for one S41S Nichia and 18650 tube.

cjoe7 · August 29, 2016, 6:31am

One S41S with Nichia and 18650 Tube.

Thanks

freeme · August 29, 2016, 7:21am

Please take note that S41S's head assembly will be glued. Producer does not want buyer to mess with the components.

BobbyMK · August 29, 2016, 7:35am

Bullshit, I’m out, don’t care for a flashlight that can’t be opened, first of all i had plan to coat the copper piece so it will prevent patina, now i can’t or ill need to damage the head trying to open it, thumbs down for whoever the manufacturer is.

g_sintornillos · August 29, 2016, 1:05pm

I am out

I do not want an Astrolux glued, especially without knowing who the producer. Sorry
