Beacon should still be there… but it’s in the battcheck blinky group, not the candle/strobe group.
Honestly, the groups aren’t really organized all that well. It was more of an organic growth process than a carefully-considered design.

Well then, 11 thou does not sound like a huge difference in voltage that's for sure Thanks for taking the time to run that by me teacher
BTW, here's how my BLF Q8 looks compared the the Sofirn. Crappy camera but still can see. Very nice white light on the Sofirn.
So I sent email to amazon about my q8. I got replied within 5 hours. They said they have to get the light from another location… oct 4 was original delivery date.
They upgraded the shipping to 2 days… Friday is expected delivery…
Sound fair… amazon do good job…
klrman:I was just curious as to what the threshold would be
It’s not really a threshold sort of thing. Small differences have a small effect, big differences have a big effect. Just try to get things as close as you can, and the effects should be small. I have a 2-slot charger instead of 4-slot, so I can’t charge all 4 cells exactly at the same time… but as long as I do each set of 2 one after the other, on the same charger, they end up almost identical. It’s probably safer than using two different chargers, since each charger has a different termination voltage.
Thank you ToyKeeper! It tells me I was overthinking it all as usual.
please add me to i terest list
Ok, until I get a lens in this will be a final… 9453 lumens.
That’s another 518 lumen gain. Simply by switching from Samsung 30Q cells to Samsung 25S cells.
Edit: Just for notation, this is a 3678 lumen increase over the stock light that just came in at lunch today. I think I can deal with that….
1. IS unit = International System of Units. We don’t use pounds, Fahrenheits there
2. Delta means difference yes.
3. 11mV = 0,011V yes.
100mV= 0,100V
Thank you Blue!! I have learned something, I appreciate the explanation. :+1:
teacher: klrman: teacher: klrman:I just charged four new 30Q button tops to 4.1V and they ended up from 4.080 to 4.091V. Is the spread in voltage safe enough to use in parallel in my Q8?
That is a difference of ’11 thousandths’ of a Volt klrman… Nothing at all to worry about in any way for parallel or series connections.
I thought it was 11/100th of a volt? I was just curious as to what the threshold would be just for my own info.
Nope… .011 is eleven thousandths. Jason either made a typo or thought that too. As far as a threshold…… A tenth of a Volt ( 4.10 vs. 4.20) should be fine, probably 15 hundredths (4.05 vs. 4.20) would be too. But IDK for sure, hopefully someone with the technical knowledge to answer correctly will chime in. . . . 4.091 - 4.080 = .011 = (11 thousandths)

My pleasure my friend!! Yeah, that is a pretty tiny difference for sure. :+1:
Thanks for the comparison beam shot. That really does show the difference. I am loving the beautiful white of the Sofirn!! :+1:

That is great…THANKS AMAZON…
Here is my Unboxing, def a better CW tint then i thought, Sofirn can be a hit and miss.THANKS ALLOT FOR WATCHING

Hey… stuff happens.
I had to double check before I wrote that to make sure I was right.
Doubt started creeping in…… :face_with_monocle:

Nice bro… just need to clean the contact points… amazon shipped out my powerful flashlight… it should arrived on friday. ( one week early )…
In the beginning, I said I wasn’t going to buy one because of the tint. I ordered one anyway, knowing I could flip it to a friend or co-worker if I hated it. Nope! I’m keeping it. I like how much different the hotspot is when I do a side-by-side with my BLF Q8. Great job Sofirn!

Thats great man, i did do that…Fri will be a good day for you.
Im interested in 2 Sofirn Q8s from Aliexpress in Australia if i can still get in on this Group Buy ??
Brett, you may be a bit late for the group buy, should still be able to get them for a decent price though, shoot Sofirn a PM on here and ask them if you can get two at the group buy price, see if they can help you out. They make it pretty easy typically…
Hi,
I am interested in this light.
The OP should put Group Buy Closed…
