    Introduction:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    <\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Soon after I received my XHP 35 version I read about the Astrolux MF04s<\/strong> that I am reviewing here. Instead of using the “throwy” XHP35 LED (in the Astrolux MF04), they installed a new driver with the CREE XHP70 LED for more than double the lumens, at the cost of less throw. Maybe a perfect combination for the best of both worlds, great throw with some nice flood. Unlike a pencil beam that only throws far.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Most of the review has been copied from the MF04 review, and only the parts that are different are added. This includes performance, throw, LED. The dimensions and boxing have all be the same. This is the reason the 2 reviews look a lot alike :–)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
