Thank you sorfin group buy and amazon. I received my light today. The beam look perfect nice white tint. It is 250 more lumen than blf q8 which I tested with the Texas ace lumen tube.
I got my order of Sofirn Q8. It came with NarsilM v1.0. Flashed it to NarsilM v1.2, which works better.
Then also tried flashing it to Anduril (latest 09-07-2018), so far it seems to work properly too.
I didn’t encounter the “no switch light” issue that DB Custom mentioned… could it be related to the Aux-LED configuration? (which can be adjusted in Lockout mode: ie. 4 clicks to lock-out, then click-click-hold, then select the mode)
@ JasonWW, My self, im fine as i have a couple hundred 18650s to choose from VTC6,30Qs even some that put out a constant 35amps continuous unprotected, protected etc "but" my brother in Western Australia only has 18650s that he has taken out of old laptop battery packs & there flat tops,so he will have to solder blobs on the + end, Thats why i was wundering (to get full output) does he need 20 amp continuous from 30Qs or will protected 10 amps continuous do the job ? or would he be still getting full output with the old laptop batteries he takes out of laptop battery packs ??
Yea maybe $20 USD for you for 4 x 30Qs on sale, "But" for me $28.20 Australian for 4 x 30Qs, A fair while back they were only $23 for 4 of them & so i bought about 32 of them & haven't seen them as cheep again since.
For us(we) Amazon US purchasers, I see only two reviews. I know we all said thank you but I think Sofirn was hoping for a whole bunch of verified purchase reviews. I wrote one of them. I suppose anyone who received one is having fun all night (thanks to the high capacity) and sleeping all day!
I sound like a broken record, but 5775.3 lumens is what I get once again on a brand new just took it out of mailbox Sofirn Q8. Rested 30Q cells at 4.19V. Literally dropped in the cells and put it on the light box, first time I turned it on.
TK? I flashed Anduril on this new Q8 with the exact same result, no side switch back-light. Zero modification to the light other than flashing Anduril. And to be sure my file was clean I downloaded it fresh from your site and installed this new file. Under lockout condition, tap-tap-hold only gives me momentary moon level. No blinks or anything else. Testing functions shows Anduril working perfectly, as before.
