Up for review today is a neat light by Astrolux, sent to me by BangGood.  This is the FT02, a 21700 cell thrower with a Cree XHP35 HI.  Notably it has charging, and is available in a neutral tint.  Read on to see how it tests!

I’ve reviewed many iterations of this light.  I did the S42 not that long ago.  And one of my very first reviews was of the Manker E14 (which I later sold, and hugely regretted selling).  
This is yet another update on that platform, with 219c emitters, and some other improvements.  Read on for more!

Today I have the Astrolux MF02, the first in my quest to have all the MF0x series lights from Astrolux.  This is the [smaller?] thrower option – there’s also the MF01, which is a can “wall of light” light, and the MF04, which is a super thrower.  I generally like Astrolux and (certainly like the S41! thought technically I reviewed the Manker E14 version.)  The MF02 is a nice large thrower with a warm emitter – a good combo.  Let’s see how it works out!

Banggood got in touch about a review item and we agreed on this Astrolux light.  I generally like Astrolux lights, and this copper light is stunning.  Plus it has a great UI!

With the continuing popularity of the Astrolux S41, an updated was developed: The S42.  This light is essentially iterative, but adds micro-USB charging.  And the Nichia emitter (which I have here) is 219c instead of 219b.  Possibly most importantly, a new user interface! Let’s see how this S42 stacks up!
