Sofirn C01S SST-20 4.000K 95CRI / Low-High version available again!

Low-High is more important for me. Loose driver as long as it doesn’t affect reliability is ok. If they have to glue the driver, it’s not a problem for me. I plan on getting 3-4 of these.

Yes.

This is the light that should’ve a glued driver.

I’m not sure that they will glue the driver, it was my assumption that if we had to choose, we rather add some glue to the driver ourselves than have the UI wrong.

Yes.
Low-high with a glue driver C01S would be great.

And I wonder: Is there any possibility that I can exchange the sequence of modes of my C01S, just by modifying, adding or removing some of the solders of the current driver, but without having to disassemble or reinstall driver components?

For me the sequence of modes is not essential, but I prefer low-high to high-low.

In for several units in raw aluminum

The mode sequence is changed by Sofirn by changing the software as I understand it.

OP updated

@Lux-Perpetua, ask if the drivers can be glued by Sofirn themselves.

Glue is perfectly adequate here.

I‘m not involved into this BlueSwordM. Maybe Jos can forward this request to Sofirn.

Oh ok then.

Or maybe I could just message Sofirn myself. :slight_smile:

I will ask Barry about it

Any news?

What happened to the BLF edition?

Following for BLF Edition.

is this not the BLF version? i have one arriving thursday, having thought it was

No, that's the "normal" C01S that is also linked in the OP. Sorry to disappoint you.

No ETA was communicated yet. Barry did tell me that they will glue the drivers if after re-assembly they are loose.

Posting to follow, interested in the BLF version.

Without any further comment, Barry sent me this pic. So I have no status info to share atm.

I loved the C01. Having a usable level of brightness for an extremely long run time in friendly 3200K was a dream come true. I ordered some of the blue and red ones but sadly, they seem to have gotten lost in shipping. :cry:

They let me know about the C01S when they gave me the refund. I’m interested to see how this emitter looks IRL at 4000K. However, it didn’t have the same extremely long run time and I kind of don’t care about a short-lived high mode. Having it always turn on in high was a major turn-off as well.

So is there really a low-high version coming out at 4000K? Having the high in reserve could make this an excellent key-chain light. Will this one use noticeable PWM? Any ideas when it will become available? Having missed out on having a few more of the original C01 due to the shipping issues really made me sad. I want to make sure I get a few of these if it happens.
