1.46 million candela claimed. This thing could potentially out-throw the gt!
I already calculated that much, see post # 268

Well……the reflector is slightly bigger, 124.1mm versus 118 as in the BLF GT.
The bigger the reflector, the more impact those few extra millimeters have on the throw capacity.
If the XHP35 HI (latest binning) is driven hard it would do around 150cd/mm2.
With a 124mm reflector the light could reach above 1.4Mcd.
Guess we’ll have to wait and see….

I’m going to be dual wielding the GT and the MF04 like light sabers lol
hey id reflector mt35 is really a 74 mm? I thought 72mm
it may also not have 124.1 mm
I remember they increased the reflector size of the MF02 by 2mm and the MT35 followed since they are basically the same light now.
Right, so the early MT35 reflector was 70mm and they changed it to 72mm.
Where did you get the 74mm number from?

or here-✌ FREEME - ASTROLUX MF04S (XHP70.2) & MF04 (XHP35 HI) - BRASS@.@ - #278 by td1042k
Those are both from taobao. They look wrong.
Banggood shows the MF02 as 72mm. An ad on Aliexpress shows the MT35 with a 73mm reflector. Plenty of people own the MT35 and MF02 so we know it’s 72mm.
Are you trying to make the point that the MF04 reflector size might be different than the specs once it comes to market? That is always a possibility.
if they have overstated the size of an existing flashlight, the MF04 / MT35 Plus reflector id can also be overestimated
the diameter of the head is similar to the BLF GT (+ 1mm), but maybe it is more frameless
Interested please
It does look good but let’s be realistic here: The BLF GT was to have 1.290.000Cd (and is still being advertised with this throw number) but looking at the real world actual throw measurements here, including my own, most perform around 1.150.000Cd.
Still very good, but 10 - 11% less then advertised.
.
If the same goes for the upcoming Astrolux, the promised 1,460.000Cd will translate to around 1.300.000Cd.
It COULD reach over 1.400.000Cd, but then everything has to be perfect: driver, led centering & focus, top bin led, reflector quality, heat management, etc……….
Cheers,

Do you mean 1,46 million “Astrolux” candela? 
I believe it when I see it.
They promised 2700/3000 lumen and 630kcd at the specs of MF02. The reality is 2,2k lumen and 420 kcd.
You sad it well. That GT (VOB’s ? ) which can throw 1.290.000Cd is a well succeed piece. For example ZozzV6’s GT can reach 981kcd. The difference is just two Emisar D1S (~2*130kcd).
On taobao it says 495 lights in stock? So they’re available now?
Interested
Light assembled. 
In Please :+1:
