Always on Low.
However there is something unexpected: Eco can only be reached after going through Low-Medium-High. There is no shortcut to Eco from Off :person_facepalming:
Reminds me of something CRX did inside of a Carclo Triple-TIR (had to ream one optic for a tiny reflector as the polycarbonate blocks UV)
Ah that’s a shame, not even if you press and hold the button from off? Really needs a shortcut to Eco imo. The only thing I don’t like about my SP10B is that it effectively doesn’t have a Low, it just goes straight from Moon-Medium.
Edit: I guess the work around would be to always run it with 14500 and switch to Eco before turning off: “It memorizes the last brightness level used in the general modes when it is powered by 14500 battery”. This would make the other modes too bright for me though.
I’m disappointed as well. Press and hold the button from off (to get to Eco) unfortunately is not working 
So… there is a reason to release SP10S V2 and to add this shortcut to Eco.
Yes, it can be done this way:
The WK30 has aroused quite some interest both here and on TLF. I hope I can convince Mark to distribute this light not only to the US market but worldwide.
I will get in touch with him and see if there's a chance for a global groupbuy (BLF and TLF at least). :-)
I’d love to get one of those WK30s with 3 LH351Ds and Anudril. Basically a 26650 SP36 BLF edition in triple instead of quad.
A magnetic tail cap for a SP40? That would be sweet. So would a better clip.
The SP40 should have enough room to glue a big magnet at the inside of the cap.
I wanted to put a magnet there but I can’t figure out how to take out the spring from the tailcap. Doesn’t seem it’s screwed into the cap like the other flashlights.
Perhaps somewhere in the supply chain someone did QA/QC and tested the devices and worked out a rather low MTBF?
You might consider making an array around the spring and glue them down. Place within the inner diameter of the body tube. Since the light has enough space, 5 mm wiggle room, for a 21700, you may stick to xx650 batteries.
I’d love to see an SP33 with a 5000K XHP50.2 (preferably 80 cri) and USB C charging.
We have long been asking Sofirn to give the buyer the choice of CCT (4000K, 5000K)XHP50.2 for SP33. But Sofirn doesn’t. As if competitive advantages are not important to Sofirn.
What does this mean?
For starters, you need to quote the whole quote to make any sense of it...
"We have long been asking Sofirn to give the buyer the choice of CCT (4000K, 5000K)XHP50.2 for SP33. But Sofirn doesn’t. As if competitive advantages are not important to Sofirn."
It means that Sofirn would have a competitive advantage if they offered the choice of CCT (4000K, 5000K)XHP50.2 for SP33.
Because Sofirn doesn't, having a competitive advantage is not important for Sofirn.
They already have a competitive advantage (an advantage over their fellow flashlight companies).
You are familiar with Sofirn, right? You know they offer lots of models, lots of parts for those models, are high quality, have the best prices and take feedback from their customers.
Sorry, but your sounding a bit spoiled just because they haven’t done what you suggested.
Remember that they are still a company that needs to make a profit. It may not be profitable for them to buy large quantities (a reel) of the 50.2. Maybe if they had more models that used the 50.2 it would make financial sense for them to do it.
For you to actually think “having a competitive advantage is not important for Sofirn.” I find quite laughable.
Ah yes, apologies. It was Di_Joker saying this and not you. I got confused since you answered my question to him. I edited my response.
One of the most common wishes for Sofirn is precisely the choice of CCT. It seems to me that it is advisable for the manufacturer to pay attention to this. Sofirn is not the only one in this price category and competitors offer the choice of CCT.
As a consumer, I express my point of view. You may not agree, but do not blame me for her.
Personally I dont care for Sofirn offering multiple emitter options because usually the tint and CRI sucks anyways unless they use Cree A or D tint bins. My wish is for Sofirn to stop using glue and design their flashlights to be as modding friendly as possible. I only buy their flashlights to swap the emitters because I like their quality and good UI.
It seems Sofirn (or at least its members on BLF) has become quite busy, silent, ...? I reached out to Cissy and Barry via PM - no replies so far, same as with the SP10S BLF Andúril driver where some feedback from Sofirn might be worthwhile. I also contacted Mark Lee (Wurkkos) in order to share some ideas - no answer yet. I'm not aware of any holidays/festivals ongoing in China but maybe someone has got some more information about what's going on?
