  • Here is the latest from Astrolux with their EA04 flashlight. This simple UI makes this easy to use by anyone. The four HP50 LED's are impressive and provide a large wide area flood beam performance. The USB Type C charging is built in should you need to charge this on the go. This EA04 can run on 26650, 26350, 21700 ir 18650 cells if you desire. The extra tube makes it smaller to carry but either way its nice size for EDC. The build quality is very nice. Rugged construction. This comes in difference options for LED or green color of body to choose from. This is the brown/tan. This is most of all budget friendly.

    Thank you for a great review of this Light, I am relatively new to modern style flashlights and your videos are a great source of information. Do you happen to have an older video on understanding what batteries and brands produce the best performance for using for modern flashlights. I notice there are so many types and brands of batteries and the costs vary making it confusing on what are the smartest ones to buy for the cost. Thank you for any suggestions you can give.🔋❔🔋

    Hi, Do you think it´s possible to use 26700 batery size in this flashlight? I see it fill 21700 meaning large (tall) than other ones, so could you advise if it´s possible ? I mean 26700 non 26650 (5 milimiters higher) Danke. Greetings from Brazil.

    • @CharlesBridgTec
      @CharlesBridgTec  Před 6 měsíci +2

      TY! I don't believe it comes with different LEDs. As for any multi-LED light look for the Luminus SFT40, SST40, SFT70, or SST70 which will give you a bit more range in most cases. Thanks for watching!

    Whats the battery will give a long runtime for this astrolux ae04 and could possibly give thw max output? Waiting for reply sir

    • @CharlesBridgTec
      @CharlesBridgTec  Před 11 měsíci +1

      Turbo is not designed to be run continuously, so a good quality battery of any brand will be about the same but the highest in the UI is about 3 hours due to the light automatically stepping down to about 1000 lumens which should give you the most runtimes at that level until battery is depleted. Thanks for watching!
