While I may have some protection, some anti-GAS (Q8, D4S, GT Mini, 3x S2+, etc),
iff someone receiving their Sofirn CARE Packages don’t “care” for their AA lights, and either shitcan-ing them, or are looking
For a cheep sale, HMU!
I have a fetish for pocketable EDC AA throwers! & I cringe at the looks ppl throw when they
See the bulge in my pants pockets, lugging a Q8…
I initially put together nine boxes. Six are shipped out, and one more is claimed… so there are currently only two left.
More can be put together, but they’ll have a different mixture of items inside and I’m not quite sure what yet. Gotta go through the remaining items and see what makes sense. Will probably post those individually, with the exact contents listed.
That’s exactly the same situation over here. Many of their flashlights were obviously returned because of those stickers on the battery‘s bottom side - especially with SP36 lights.
I have been discussing this issue with Sofirn and eventually created some kind of an illustration what to pay attention for before using the flashlight.
I strongly suggested to including this information into their manuals (at least in written text). But they did not want to put it into their manuals nor onto the cardboard boxes. The only place where you might find this information is on the Amazon page.
That is a great illustration Lux-Perpetua… :+1:
I find it sadly amazing Sofirn did not want to use it in the manuals or on the box. :person_facepalming: .
It could only help in reducing the number of needless returns……
I totally agree with you teacher. It’s sad they don’t want to take that advice. It would seemlessly fit into the „troubleshooting“ section of the manual, but it is what it is.
Do you have any lights that don’t work because the driver or leds are broken? If yes, I would be interested to get some as hosts for modding.
By the way, did you ever get an international shipping quote? Maybe fewer lights and less weight would be feasible? I wish, I would also get whole boxes of flashlights sent from Sofirn.
Don’t write it off as absolute unwillingness. It often is a mix of language and cultural differences.
Last week I (YYY) asked a seller (XXX) if he could provide me with a retaining ring. This is what happened:

Hello XXX,
I have not heard from you in some days now.
Are you still looking? Please let me know.
If you are not looking any longer, that’s OK.
In that case I will try some other sources.
Best regards,
YYY

His second answer keeps me totally in the dark. As did his first answer.
Maybe he is just too polite, or too proud, to tell me he can’t help me.
IDK. Won’t ask him no more.
That might be the only place it’s needed. Generally, the more mainstream the shop, the lower the ratio of buyers who are connoisseurs. And a lot of people don’t read manuals. So a big store like Amazon is probably one of the best places to put extra info about basic things like battery covers.
But it could help to put a card about it into the box… similar to the card in the FW3A box about opening the front instead of the back.
