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

Definitely want a L-H version. I ordered the wrong ones and have a bunch of H-L which I find pointless for me. Just give-aways now.

Stainless might be nice?

Yes - SS or Brass or Anodized or Non-Anodized. I want them all.

I just tightend the c01s blf a little too tight and when i unscrewed it the led stayed on
and stayed in the body so i cant turn it off.

I did this too. Unscrew it all the way and then separate the top two parts. Then just put it back together and it’ll work again like normal.

Thanks. I figured it out. I was at work when it happened so i was a little frustrated and I almost lost that plastic piece. But when I got home and the battery was dead it was simple how to figure how to fix it. But I put a little blue locktite on it to prevent that from happening and i did the same to the one I’m going to give to my little brother, because i wouldn’t want that to happen to him and possibly lose those pieces.

Got mine today!! Nice lights, but I think I like anodized more. I would love this light in copper, brass, or while we’re at it… why not bronze? I never hear about bronze lights.

I’m kinda surprised no one has mentioned titanium yet :heart_eyes:

Did I heard the C01S works with li-ion cells too?

May someone confirm?

Or silver.

Nah.

Silver has a tendency to tarnish, and removing that tarnish is quite hard for most people.

Copper is super easy.

Also, while a copper plated light would cost 20$US in rather small quantities with a thick copper layer, a silver one would have a much thinner layer for say 25$US.

Don’t think of it as tarnish. Think of it as patina.

Patina alright :person_facepalming:

I’m a big fan of copper, even though it’s heavy, brass too. I like the way they age (patina :sunglasses: ), and bronze would too.
I’m still pretty new to “the life” but do wonder why I haven’t seen any bronze lights.
If we’re plating…why not rhodium?

Is Sofirn set up to make these out of titanium? I’m guessing that will inform the answer to my next question. How much more would they cost?

I’d be interested in clear anodized, or copper/brass- electroplated or not.

Only now I noticed that “BLF-Edition sold out” :frowning: :cry:

If you are going to go the special metals route, I would suggest more than 2 modes. I like CU, but would not purchase for the premium for a 2 mode light.

I’m happy with simplicity. As I said, I’d love to see the original C01 in Ti. I’m flexible depending on the light but I normally don’t want more than three modes to cycle through. I prefer the modes to start low and I’ve come to appreciate not having mode memory. (There is a great thread on disliked or unwanted features over on CPF right now.) I prefer brass to Cu but I’ve also come to appreciate the lighter weight of Ti.

With all of these options and opinions being thrown around regarding finishes and materials, it seems like (1) we need to know what material & finishes Sofirn can reasonable accommodate, and then (2) maybe set up a poll to help determine those that are in highest demand (something like “pick your top 3 of these 10 options”).

I know right. This sums up a lot better than my flip answer earlier. Lots of ideas but they can’t all happen I’m sure. So many ones missed out on the first batch, that if all we get is another run just like it, that would be very popular. If we want to go beyond that, then take a poll and let the majority win.
