this new light fits nicely in one hand

I have some spacers I bought from overready. They work great but it’s the length of the 18500 that I like. I don’t use my lights a lot through the day or night so runtimes are not a huge requirement for me. At least for EDC anyway.

I would buy at least one.

A kit includung a 1100mah 18350 battery would probably sell well.

@Barry, make a Nichia E21A 5000K version as well please.

I mean all of the work for this light is already done! Just Lego the pieces together, throw in a battery and take our money!

How interesting or viable would be to make it as a triple OR with a shorter reflector and bezel?
Just to make it shorter than the SP32A with a short tube!

this 18350 tube is compatible with SC31, SP32A V2, SP31V2

It’s even compatible with C8T and SP31T. ;-)

Barry, can you please offer the single 18350 tube for sale at Sofirn‘s shop on AliExpress? On TLF I saw that people would like to buy it separately. Thank you!

I’ll buy 4!

I was successful ordering a couple of these short tubes via Sofirn's CS team on AliExpress (Cissy). If you click on "contact seller" you can send them your inquiry. I paid $ 15,80 for 4x SP33 26mm DTP boards and 4x SP40 18350 short tubes including $1 off discount, PayPal marketplace fee and e-Packet shipping. Assuming that all parts are sold for the same price, the battery tube would cost around $ 2,00.

I’d definitely be in for a few.

You don’t want to know how many shorty tubes I have for my S2+es, and in how many colors. :person_facepalming:

Not only, aliexpress. If you contact sofirn on BLF or TLF, tell what you wanna order. You will get service too!

Technically speaking, not quite but close. This is Henrik's latest test of the “1100mAh high discharge cell from Shenzhen Yongde Lixin Energy”: Test of Shockli 18350 1150mAh (Black) 2018

A test which is also outdated: Vapcell INR18350 1100mAh retested by Mooch: shenanigans again

Am I presuming both Vapcell and Shockli cells are the same? Sure.

We do not really know what current capacity and discharge rate those cells are delivering now. Maybe we should ask Henrik to get new review samples from Vapcell, his small cell queue isn't crowded.

Cheers :-)

1100mAh down to 2,5V.

The cell has changed BlueSwordM, Mooch realized this long ago. It has not been retested since then.

Subbed. I really want a good 18350 light!

Is sofirn considering 18350 light? Hopefully with the LH351D 90CRI :slight_smile:

I ordered a coupla shorty tubes offa Amazon that ostensibly fit the ’31 and other lights.

18350 version of SP32A v2 with (3000K or 4000K) SST-20 (very high CRI) could sell well IMHO.

I would love sofirn to fulfill tailored orders to individual specification. :heart_eyes:

Possible GB? :smiley:

I see the 18350 tubes are sold out on the various amazon stores, and not listed on aliexpress, but I would like to order 3 of them (for sc31 and sc31b lights). Are they anywhere available anymore?
