Sofirn SP10 Pro (AA/14500/Andúril 2) - now available!

Interested

I’m interested.

I am also I for one, even if it only works with 14500 batteries. And why does everybody wants no or a clear anodization? That blue and red looks amazing and would differentiate it from all these black and grey flashlights.
And please keep a 5000K version, 4000K is just to warm for my taste.

Mine does. I use the lockout function, but who knows how often that thing is blinking in there.

Very interested too

It sounds like the main hurdle for this project is a matter of electrical engineering, finding a way for BLF code to run on an AA boost driver. Anyone got info about how to do that? Or even detailed info about the driver used on the current model?

Yea, why not.

Very interested! I bought a few of the SP10A (or B?) and they’re nice. I’d buy a few if they can get anduril to run on the aa/14500 driver. FET, I’d be interested in 1 or 2.

I'm interested. I'd buy a couple if:

14500/AA

Some color(s) other than black, to include no anodization at all (please).

Otherwise I'd buy only one as a BLF one-off just to have a sample.

Maybe lexel can assist on this project?

With a 14500 cell it would be easy… just run it like a normal BLF light. The tricky part is running it from a regular AA cell. It would need a MCU which runs at much lower voltage, or some way to boost the voltage even in standby mode. Or maybe some clever way to wire the switch to the boost circuit so it would enable the boost hardware when the button is pressed.

I’m not sure how the current driver works though; I haven’t seen any details on it. So figuring that out might be the first step.

Interested!

AA is not a big deal to me on this one. Prefer 4000K, but 5000K is fine.

Looking forward to this becoming a reality.

I would add one to my collection. Can’t see carrying it everyday due to the side switch. I manage to turn on my tail switches in my pocket. Guess how I figure that out.
Burn!

Throwing in my 2¢ (adjusted for inflation)…

I’d be okay with 14500 only, but alkaleak/NiMH compatibility would be nice for the muggle.

Dunno what the fascination is with “clear”, but to me it looks kinda cheap. Stick with black/red/blue. I got a “clear” or “silver” or whatever ’32v2, which is nice, sure, but I still prefer my Mystery Color ones.

Dunno what’s wrong with the UI. I got a couple of the original A version (just l/m/h, no firefly), and B versions (f/l/m/h), and they’re fine. No complaints. The gf loves hers, no complaints either, but might not like too complex a UI.

I got a GTmicro, played with it, it’s nice, but it’s still sitting in a box. Last thing I want is a click-on/click-off light in my pocket that can set my pants on fire or at least burn my crotchal area if the light accidentally gets turned on.

And for the love of B’harni (pbuh!), get a decent non-chrome deep-carry clip, not the typische cheap-looking (even if quite sturdy) Thorfire/Sofirn clips. They grab and hold just fine, but look like an afterthought. “Whoa! We forgot to add a clip! Here throw a bunch of these Generic Clips in the production bin and see if they’ll fit…”
