New design, variable temperature color EDC flashlight.
2pcs LH351D 6000-6500K and 2pcs LH351D 2700K
TIR optics, Type C USB port and with indicator.
Very compact 16mm length only
Photo comparison to C8G.

Perfect for 4* SST20 high CRI 21700 version with Anduril (IMHO)
I’m gonna guess… that’s 106mm length? Not 160mm. But definitely not 16mm either
Cool. Good to see more USB-C, and I see the LT1 tint-mix theme is spreading. Mix it to 4000K-5000K and the average should be nice. It beats slicing dogfarts…
I’m guessing they will install a driver that can control the 2 different tints separately (maybe it comes with such a driver stock?). That way you can adjust color temp on the fly.
Since late August there’s ‘rumours’ about a new version with a lower moonlight, a different emitter (XHP50B-3V?) to get to 3500 lm and a type C charge port.
As they come in a 6000K tint now, I hope Sofirn will offer more neutral and/or warmer options. I could need a 4000 - 4500K version.
Nope, overall runtime is the same and potentially higher. The benefits are a set output which gives consistent brightness, moderate heat and increased runtime when compared to a FET driver due to the set output. FET’s can pull more amps which drain the battery faster and create more heat. So if you want the highest output, use a FET driver. If you want longer runtime at a level below the max, a boost driver is better. It depends on your application.
PS, when your battery voltage gets low, charge it or swap a fresh cell in. Then you won’t loose any modes.
