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

[Barkuti]

Piss off Sofirn, you raised the C01S price barely after putting them on sale and they don't bear sale price now (standard version does).

Chill man. If you don’t like their pricing, don’t buy it. Heaven forbid that a company tries to turn a profit…

too bad only 3 lumen on low,there will be (another) update with 15/20 lumen still 4000k?

[Barkuti]

Sari33, that would require updating/reprogramming the driver firmware, to 3-mode maybe.

Yep gchart, don't worry.

And that is possible by yourself?Didn’t know why only 3 lumens,good only for read paper(maybe)…Hope would be more than declared.

At least they didn’t do a moonlight/ firefly mode and 100 lumens. :confounded:

I just ordered a couple “gray”s… Have half a dozen colored on the way too.

It is unclear to me whether it is raw aluminum or anodized?
Most pictures look raw except one that looks sandblasted and a little tad greenish…
Anybody saw one?

Firefly mode would be more useful to me instead moon mode.2 levels 20 - 100 lm would be perfect

I just asked Sofirn to confirm which version it is. Pending feedback. I keep you updated.

Update: Barry (Sofirn) just confirmed it’s the one that uses low to high mode order just like the original BLF edition. But their supplier made the host color different as it’s now sandblasted and not clear coming as is from the CNC machine.

OP is updated.

Thanks for confirming, ordered 1 !
I missed the first edition, so this is a consolation prize in a nice matte finishing

Edit: I paid 8,81€ and immediatelly after that, the price on the plataform increased to 8,82€! Funny, no?!

[Chronovore]

So, is this still raw aluminum but with some kind of bead blast?

It seems so yes.

In contrast, it usually drops a cent :-) in my case. I think it has to do with currency conversion round off.

20 would be too bright for me as the lowest mode and firefly would would be even less useful than 3 lumens. Well, to each their own I suppose. This is probably why Sofirn never bothered to ask lol.

3 lumens is enough for me to do indoor house inspections at night. It’s still too bright for middle of the night stuff.

[shirnask]

I would also trade low for firefly

[nydude]

just picked up a low- high thanks!

[Sari33]

With loss on optic would be 15 lm at low
These twist 100lm lights are expensive compared to high power lights
My 1$ AAA light still work after 2 years use on my keychain
It’s sturdy, mod friendly and came with real Cree

[Anthon]

Sold out again, will they restock soon?

[Boaz]

adding a piece if diffuser film on them makes the 3 lumen look more like a 1 lumen .
