  AE Aqr objects are a class of cataclysmic variable stars in which the rapidly
rotating magnetosphere of the white dwarf (WD) primary centrifugally expels
most infalling gas before it can accrete onto the WD. The expulsion of the
accretion flow via this "magnetic propeller" extracts angular momentum from the
WD and produces large-amplitude, aperiodic flares in optical photometry. The
eponymous AE Aqr is the only confirmed member of this class of object, but
recently, Thorstensen (2020) discovered a candidate AE Aqr system: LAMOST
J024048.51+195226.9. Using survey photometry, we measure a refined orbital
period for this system and identify a shallow, previously unrecognized eclipse
during which the system's frequent AE Aqr-like flaring episodes cease. A
dedicated follow-up study is still necessary to test the proposed AE Aqr
classification for LAMOST J024048.51+195226.9, but should it be confirmed, the
eclipse of its flare-production region will offer a new means of studying the
magnetic propeller phenomenon.
