Sofirn Q8 group buy (gb closed, but try PM to Sofirn for discount)

Just wanted to let everyone know my Q8 XPL-HI came in today. Pretty awesome. I may buy another from Amazon when they arrive. I would think that will happen pretty soon if mine has made it in. Thank you djozz and Sofirn (Barry).

@Toykepper, I understand.

@Quad-XXX, same thing. Sorry. I’m just a bit too curious sometimes :weary:

I don’t really think the Q8 needs onboard charging though.

This is the design.

But finally we decided to remove the flats since many BLFers don’t like it.

We are going to use NarsilM V1.2 firmware. Thanks @Toykeeper for help!

Sofirn Q8 to USA was delivered on 17th, but it takes about 7 days to be available. :person_facepalming: Hope amazon will make it quicker.

Hope people there recovered from the hurricane soon.

Looks Good :slight_smile:

Digging that SP36. Put me down for a few of those. :smiley: Hope Amazon US gets those when they are available.

Interested US

Looks good. I must be the only one who actually likes the flat. I'll buy the SF36 with the battery tube with the flat sides if you can sell it to me when it becomes available?

I think the flats look good too.

Edit: This is not something I have a strong preference about. It makes no real difference to me.

LOL, I told Barry that many people do not like the flat bits.
(I even like the old SD10 battery styling best: fully round with plain knurling, no stripes)

The flat for me too.

No flats for me.

Only a poll could settle what the majority likes, and even then the minority will not accept to be dictated by the majority :smiley:

I prefer no flats, but that adds a little weight.

The SP36 looks great. A slimmed-down version of the Q8 !

I’m indifferent about flats or no flats. I’m sure to buy a couple.

If the SP36 gets a reasonable pricing, and it has Narsil UI, and it has well implemented USB charging, I will be all over it :slight_smile:

Yup! Being a bit smaller and lighter but with the same UI and a good deal of power and battery life will be a huge winner.

Yep, the SP36 looks very promising for sure. As far as the flats, it makes no difference one way or the other to me.

FWIW, I think the light demands it’s own style, based on size and overall design. Flats on the SP36 look good, without them it looks too “tube” like. Just an observation though, not key enough probably to nix a purchase.

Yes flats for me for the weight decrease and looks. That’s if there is a choice, otherwise I don’t care flats or no flats.
