Interest collect for a new Sofirn design: tube style18650, magnetic ring control, USB-C charging, 500 lm max (AKA grandma light)

Please put me in for two.

Interested with infinitely variable from 0.1 lm and smoot design.
Not sharp edges and rough knurlig as usual…

Put me down for 12. Perfect for a giveaway, either family or work.

Interested!

Interested!

Put me down for 5 please. Not sure if I ever got on this one. Still hoping for the Blf lt1 mini as well.

I recently mailed Barry about this light as a reminder that the interest was still high, but he did not answer.

Put me down for 3

Fantastic idea ! I’m in for two please :slight_smile:

Put me down for one please.

I know this is getting the point that djozz and many are giving up hope, but I’d have no shame in pestering Sofirn into making this dang thing. Make it a deal with a nice box for gifting and I can’t ssee it not selling heavily around here and on Amz if marketed properly

I hope this isn’t necroposting, but if this ever materializes I’d be in for 3!

Wellp, aside from the usb charging, the SDwhatever diving light ticks most of the boxes. There’s the button type (nice enough) and the ring type (hella simple).

Imagine just modding that with a usb port shouldn’t be that traumatic, eh?

But Sofirn did the mode order wrong in their dive lights :person_facepalming: (plus that I like this to be a compact tube-style light)

So. Time for a new manufacturer here? Curious what Wildtrail would say

If this ever happens, I would be in for 3 please. :white_check_mark:

Wildtrail may not be ideal. The key part of this light is a dedicated new driver, I know that Sofirn can design magnetic ring drivers but I have not seen Wildtrail/Luckysun design their own drivers.

They at least take suggestions and iterate quickly. This driver topology can’t be that complicated to figure out. A few hall sensors that each tie into a different point in a series string of voltage divider resistors feeding one analogue input pin on an MCU could be a way to do this running a linear-mode FET.

How independent is Wurkkos?

Magnetic ring? So will this have parasitic drain?

Moot cuz……

USB-C.

Auto-disinterested. :laughing: :stuck_out_tongue:
