Thanks.

How about the ASTROLUX FT03? A few people reviewed it.

I forget the model of the Mateminco version.

Astrolux FT03 SST40 is called “Astrolux SST40” above. I think that adding “FT03” would be worthwhile.
Same with XHP50.2.

Also, a couple of missing FT03 SST40 reviews:

[4K Review] Astrolux FTO3 - Crazy value!!!

The MF04 has a little brother… [Astrolux FT03 - SST40 - 2400 Lumens - USB-C - review]

[Review]Astrolux FT03 (Best value large thrower of 2019?)

Astrolux has a new large thrower the FT03. It features a large deep reflector and a SST-40 LED to to give it throw. It’s mated to a 26650 battery tube (but it can accept 21700’s and 18650’s (With an adapter too) and features USB-C fast recharging. Thanks to Banggood for sending this too me. They do have a pretty aggressive coupon available for this if your interested that can be found in the Youtube description or on my blog. https://i.imgur.com/lwOr9jS.jpg Full Image Gallery: Astrolux - FT03 …

WOWTAC A4 V2

[Review} WOWTAC A4 V2

An almost EDC thrower. A coat pocket light that can double as a hand warmer/branding iron. I got this light on Amazon when it was on sale at the end of Jan 2020 for $39.95. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B081JL73Y8/ref=twister_B08135W316?\_encoding=UTF8&th=1 I’m not providing a link to the WOWTAC page as two different browsers tell me the page is not safe to visit (insert coronavirus joke of choice here). [image] A friend of mine was looking for a budget thrower and I showed him the WOWTAC A4 (f…

[Review] Tacklife LFL3A - A killer Buy

A really – really good deal on a 26650 thrower. I was alerted by this thread started by FromShadowlands It started life at $8.99 !! When I placed the order it was $10.99 on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07DS7PLTB/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1&psc=1 Most of the Amazon reviews are for a second Tacklife zoomie light. Why Amazon feels the need to mix reviews for different products is beyond me. [image] It comes nicely boxed. [image] We are informed that it’s …

Keep up the good work.
This is so helpful.
All the Best,
Jeff

Don’t forget the Yezl Y3 (1, 2 or 3 x 26650) that so many of us had fun modding a couple of years back. In it’s 3 cell configuration, stock driver and an MTG-2 emitter, it remains my favorite general purpose outdoor light.
