So I sent email to amazon about my q8. I got replied within 5 hours. They said they have to get the light from another location… oct 4 was original delivery date.
They upgraded the shipping to 2 days… Friday is expected delivery…
Sound fair… amazon do good job…

ToyKeeper:
It’s not really a threshold sort of thing. Small differences have a small effect, big differences have a big effect. Just try to get things as close as you can, and the effects should be small. I have a 2-slot charger instead of 4-slot, so I can’t charge all 4 cells exactly at the same time… but as long as I do each set of 2 one after the other, on the same charger, they end up almost identical. It’s probably safer than using two different chargers, since each charger has a different termination voltage.
Thank you ToyKeeper! It tells me I was overthinking it all as usual.
please add me to i terest list

Ok, until I get a lens in this will be a final… 9453 lumens.
That’s another 518 lumen gain. Simply by switching from Samsung 30Q cells to Samsung 25S cells.
Edit: Just for notation, this is a 3678 lumen increase over the stock light that just came in at lunch today. I think I can deal with that….

1. IS unit = International System of Units. We don’t use pounds, Fahrenheits there
2. Delta means difference yes.
3. 11mV = 0,011V yes.
100mV= 0,100V
Thank you Blue!! I have learned something, I appreciate the explanation. :+1:

Nope… .011 is eleven thousandths. Jason either made a typo or thought that too. As far as a threshold…… A tenth of a Volt ( 4.10 vs. 4.20) should be fine, probably 15 hundredths (4.05 vs. 4.20) would be too . But IDK for sure , hopefully someone with the technical knowledge to answer correctly will chime in. . . . 4.091 - 4.080 = .011 = (11 thousandths)
Well then, 11 thou does not sound like a huge difference in voltage that’s for sure Thanks for taking the time to run that by me teacher
BTW, here’s how my BLF Q8 looks compared the the Sofirn. Crappy camera but still can see. Very nice white light on the Sofirn.
My pleasure my friend!! Yeah, that is a pretty tiny difference for sure. :+1:
Thanks for the comparison beam shot. That really does show the difference. I am loving the beautiful white of the Sofirn!! :+1:

In the beginning, I said I wasn’t going to buy one because of the tint. I ordered one anyway, knowing I could flip it to a friend or co-worker if I hated it. Nope! I’m keeping it. I like how much different the hotspot is when I do a side-by-side with my BLF Q8. Great job Sofirn!

Brett, you may be a bit late for the group buy, should still be able to get them for a decent price though, shoot Sofirn a PM on here and ask them if you can get two at the group buy price, see if they can help you out. They make it pretty easy typically…

PM Sofirn. That’s their BLF name, Sofirn. Tracey is who I’ve spoken with in the past, don’t know for sure who’s monitoring the forum.
