Should we have yet another GB for BLF-348?

Sooooooo…….is anything going to come of this thread? It’s pretty clear people are interested in buying more of this light

I’ve been gifting quite a few of those lights - sometime the plain non BLF ones though, and i’m missing them. The slim brushed SS body is quite nice compared to most other AAA lights. I’d buy more if they become available again.

Hoping for better threads… They were really cheap and prone to mishandling.

I’d like a couple more. Keep it not too bright, high-CRI. Maybe E21 would be a good fit since it’s low vf? My sister in law took one and I only have one more.

If I ever find the 3 extra NIB ones I got (219Cs, I think), I’ll let youse know.

Wasn’t a fan of the hair-thin threads, either.

They were nice in theory, but I never “got into” them like others did.

Those were my fav ones with that emitter, shoot me a PM if you come across them and want to sell me one (or more)

thread started in 2016

is anything going to actually happen?

Seems dead, unless we really bug the right people. As of now, I don’t think they are paying much attention. Plus, you can get a Singfire clone for like $16 or something like that, but with a lame xpg3. You could swap it for a 219 though.

GB was in 2016, so now the attendees need more lights :wink:

And the (creator of the GB) is aware of the increasing interest:

There’s a Singfire sf-348 (with a pretty awful green xpg) for $7 available at fasttech:

I bought one and put a 219b in it and its lovely

Does anyone know of a replacement driver for this which has more than one mode and still can take NiMH and 10440 batteries?

I saw the SF-346 on there. Bigger reflector? Wonder how that one is.

I want to buy one of those, but how difficult is it working in that small 12mm head? I have swapped LED’s in my ~19mm xeno e03, and that was tight . I don’t know if I can not ruin stuff in such tight quarters… :person_facepalming:

I’d be interested in a few.

Its quite straightforward, the mcpcb heats up really quickly so its easy to solder

I’d be in for a few

I’m not sure. outside of the sleek metallic look, the Sofirn C01S is bi-level and has a better price point.

That is the reason I bought the 348 :slight_smile:

This is my daily tasker light. Unfortunately I tend to lose them.
I specifically like the high CRI, serviceable switch (but would prefer a forward clicky), aluminum finish, and the pocket clip.

Even without improvements, i would buy 3 of the original BLF-348s right now.

I hope this comes to fruitition

Me too… :white_check_mark:
