Can you put me in for 2x 4500k. Iām already on the list
I'm sorry to tell you that Sofirn will probably no longer pursue the development of this model. I have talked to Barry today. Sofirn still has difficulties sourcing Nichia E21A emitters from their supplier(s). Eventually, they will focus on other flashlight projects. Therefore, I see no chance but to suspend this project. :-( Maybe the concept can be salvaged and continued by another manufacturer someday.
long wait ended badly ,please tell them to offer C01S with 351D/sst20 at 2700k with 3 modes 0.1lm or even better made tail click version
How does Hank have access to E21A but Sofirn has trouble. Thatās a bummer.
Hopefully the new 3 mode, 2group C01S-DR driver can be adopted for normal white led editions.
Well, that leaves one option for 2000K, one of Hankās lights.
Lux, thank you for the time and effort you invested in spearheading this project.
I second that emotion, thanks Lux for the efforts. These would have been some sweet little flashlights.
Lux, thanks for trying.
does this also means there will be no 3 modes c01s using other led in the future?
Thanks a lot for your great support and confidence. I will keep on trying to find another manufacturer who may be able to develop something similar. Maybe even Hank Wang might be interested, who knows. I will ask him. ;-)
I do not know about Sofirn's further plans regarding C01S. I suggested them to use the 3 mode UI for C01S as well. I can only guess but the odds look good they will eventually use this UI on C01S, too. Same applies for any other tint/color.
Someone mentioned some days ago that Hank is not interested in making AAA/AA sized/compatible flashlights.
I think if we get the C01S hosts without LED and a reel of nice LEDs we could reflow it ourselves (or a few of us with shipping to other members). With all the work and additional shipping it might cost a bit more.
I hope so too. And soon. 
That needs a different MCPCB, too, as the footprint of the E21A is completely different.
If Sofirn or others manufacture can made small MCPCB for E21A Iām interest to get some
Interested
The project is suspended, most likely indefinitely. Sorry.
I think virence.com is intending to restock their version at some point, but the timing was unclear even before the pandemic, and that appears to disrupted all of Clemenceās plans.
What about virence, he has access to E21A and custom MCPCBs
Yes,wish project will be resumed
