Awesome, thank you!
If they made more of the original C01 with Yuji in 3200K, in any finish, I’m sure people would buy them. (The cooler temp version hung around longer on eBay.) I think a lot of the suggestions so far would sell. I’m sure a poll wouldn’t hurt. Sofirn gets a bunch of free market research and instant cred in the community.
I’m only one guy but consider this. I never owned a Sofirn before the C01 was made for us here. It was fairly unique and I respected that they made it for us, so I bought one. I loved it! So I bought a few more. When the color-anodized versions came out, I tried to buy a few of those. (Sadly, they disappeared into shipping limbo en route from China.) When the BLF version of the C01S came out, I ordered a few of those. That’s at least ten successful sales. I’ve given a few away and I’ve given Sofirn strong recommendations to people elsewhere in the EDC/gear community.
AFAIK the 5mm bulb the C01 uses has been discontinued. I was going to buy the cool one on ebay but that sold the next day! :person_facepalming:
Dag. Well, I’m open to new things. Hopefully, the industry will come out with some new LEDs that achieve legendary status like the now past Nichia 219B. Sofirn or other makers will make awesome flashlights with them. We’ll all buy a bunch! 
Is this orange or Yellow Tritium? and also, how much NOA61 glue did you need? I am not sure if I need to buy 1cc (ml) or 2.
Thanks in advance!
Sitting on top of it's bigger brother. Digging the raw look.
It’s orange but it looks more like yellow to me. Get the smallest bottle of NOA 61 - you really do not need much.
Sorry for the Ultratac A1 being absent (it’s in the truck ATM), but does this lineup do it for ya?
PS - my BLF Edition C01S came in today! :partying_face:
Thank you!
I would not mind stainless. I have two stainless steel lights and they keep looking great after years and years of keychain use.
I just use silicone glue [the white stuff that comes in a squeeze tube]. I just put a dab on the bottom of the whole and press down until level with the light, and wipe off any excess that squeezes out.
Oh dang, thats perfect. I have a E05 and a Mi7 and that really shows how small this little bugger is.
I just got the light yesterday evening and I really like the light it produces, tint and beam. The two levels are good. I didn’t like the unannodized look at first, but the industrial look has grown on me now.
I got mine too. I only wish the knurling wasn’t so fine.
Now that I have one in hand I think I may not appreciate other materials as much since it’s basically all knurling. The other lights in gchart’s picture you can see only put knurling in the front and back primarily.
Stealing a pic from Tally-ho in another thread I think some of the knurling could be a bit wider on the head and then the body knurling replaced by something like this to better appreciate the material and still keep it a bit tactile:
I missed it. I’ll wait for the next run. Also interested in alternative material (but not copper).
I understand from Barry that there will be more un-anodised C01S lights, and also clear anodised, and they will try brass. There is no certainty about the numbers.
But still low-high correct?
Those three finishes would be awesome.
Any word on about how long it will be before they go into production?
With this knurling the thing is going to feel like a penny that got run over in the street 100 times. It needs some changes if it’s left unfinished, even as aluminum IMO
I got my first BLF version in yesterday. The low- high is a necessary change imo. I prefer the anodized version better so I put a new head on the anodized body. The tint and output levels are perfect. I have two more coming in at some point but this combination is a great backup light for me.
