What do you do to cycle the modes? Hold?

I like the 18350 adapter/tube.

Tailcap magnet?
I’m guessing no. It’s not mentioned.

I would like Sofirn to produce a AA / 14500 headlamp. Without a built in charger.

it will included in the package

no magnet :cry:

Yes, hold press cycle the modes

I still want one :slight_smile:

When the flashlight is using the 18350 tube will it fit in the silicone lamp holders on the headband?

It looks like it would be too short.

In order to use it as a headlamp you would have to use the 18650 tube.

Thanks

Brand new light. Outdated Micro-USB :((

Yes,it fits quite well.

Hi, can I get more info for this light?

Is it CW or NW? What’s the colour temperature?

What are the lumen levels for low mid high and turbo? Is there a moonlight mode?

Will future versions have TIR lens and a magnetic tailcap?

Usually, those XP-L HD Sofirn uses will come with a CCT between 5350K and 5750K, so a bit on the coldwhite side. But I cannot tell for sure what they are using here. I would be surprised if they used a warmer tint than usual. Modes on the SP40 are: 5lm (Low), 90lm (Medium), 450lm (High) and 1,200lm (Turbo).

Ordered!

I can’t wait to try this guy out. Nice UI, temperature regulation, two battery tubes… sounds great!

Thank you for your reply! Pretty nice mode spacing but I wish it had ramping, and a moonlight mode for up close use since its a headlamp. Might be still get one

Seconded! But I’m also happy to see this new entry to the budget 18650 headlamp market. Probably going to be my first decent headlamp, now that I got the feel for a cheap one with the Boruit D10.

Why is USB micro-B outdated?

USB micro-B is a pretty widespread standard, compact AND inexpensive. An USB type-C connector is bigger, more complex and more expensive, without real advantages here besides reversibility.

In the past I replaced some USB micro-B male connectors for a sloppy friend in a DIY power bank with a permanently attached micro-B output cable, they can be bought rock bottom cheap with shells (and I've seen cheaper).

On the other hand, USB type-C male connectors: 5x pieces, 10x pieces. Without :facepalm: shells.

Of course the above is for comparison purposes, just made the type-C thing search out of curiosity. It serves as comparison because as it is understandable the female part cost is thereabouts.

I could say a chair or even the wheel are outdated. I like outdated stuff. ;-)
