Agreed, Sofirn is really good to us. Their customer service is phenomenal.
Yeah, any light that is fairly easy to get into a few thousand lumen turbo mode isn’t necessarily muggle friendly. I don’t know what kind of 18650’s you have but my SP33 runs just fine on 30Q’s, VTC6’s, and the new Molicel P26A. I have some lower drain 10 amp cells that run it fine as well. Haven’t tested with a light meter but they all perform about the same to my eye. Shorter runtimes with the 18650 but they will work none the less.
Hard to beat a S2+ for a all around light. With a biscotti driver, the ones the kids and wife use, I program the driver for 4 mode with 50% being the highest level they can get to. I have S2+’s just about everywhere. So affordable and easy to mod to your liking.
BTW: A good piece of diffuser film on the lens will make that SP33 nice and floody and get rid of those weird tints around the hot spot. I have some extra diffuser film here, if you think you need a sheet of it let me know and I can throw one in the post for you.
My 18650 are hand me downs. They still keep about 1800-1900 so they are ok. You can’t argue with a pile of free batteries. Plus they are protected.
So far, I used up 6 and still have enough for several S2 and then by Xmas, will look at battery upgrading.
I may take you up on the diffuser film. The logic of an emergency light being a thrower annoys me. If I’m going to check out a noise, the last thing on earth I need is a narrow spot thrower that gives me tunnel vision….and doesn’t cover my 10 and 2.
