Much better than expected! I so wish they deliver a CRI95 variant eventually….
Thanks for the test djozz!
Thank you for the test, looks to be well made by Luminus. I have one on order, will try it in an L21A. Sweet spot around 8 Amps?
Yep, Convoy rightly chose to drive this led at 8A 
Great results, Djozz! But d4mn, one of my Sft40 has a failure, leaving a died ‘die dot(?)’ in the emitter.
How is the luminance compared to the CSLPM1.TG?
Nice!
So previously, the choice for throw at 2000 lumens was the XHP35 HI. This appears to not just surpass that, but also be more convenient as a 3v led.
And it’s more intense, XHP35 HI has 5.3 mm².
Thanks for testing djozz. This may cause an Indian summer to some of my shelf queens.
How’s the tint at low levels. Same as the SST40?
Yes, comparable, slightly green but not too bad, and at high levels it looks a nice white.
Nice Job once again! I've had a pair on the way since June 8th, but I'll have to order more now 
Wow, I was not expecting that boost in output at 9-10A! As you say, it looks like the best 4mm^2 LED for throw, and perfect for direct drive with that low Vf.
I just received a couple from Simon and I’m now eager to try them out.
thanx for detailed test
but i disagree about tint. i got model from Fenix with sft40. it is HELLISH green like no other LED i've seen. it is green even in turbo. lower modes are unvievably ugly. if there is 5000k version, i guess it will perform better. but in no circumstances i would mess with CW version of SFT40. my standarts for tint are quite low. but this led is even lower.
it is good LED though. in everything besides being sooo green. consider this, guys. consider this.
Perhaps Fenix has a different batch/bin than Convoy Flashlight Store?
I see no “hellish” tint in the leds that I tested. A bit, but acceptable, greenish at low current, “neutral” cool white at higher currents, slightly purple at direct drive in my FT03. Just like the SST40.
Exciting...I have a couple on the way from Simon. I'd planned on 6A but I may pause and order a different driver now. I do hope they come out with a lower temp sometime, like 5000K or so. Thanks for all the work and time you put into these tests, djozz!
Should go toe to toe with 2mm Osrams if you can drive it to 9-10A. I’ll have to pick a few of these up. SFT70 just got more exciting, but this should entertain for a bit until that shows up. Thanks djozz.
Btw, I think I saw something in the wild that suggested Luminus has a 2021 version sst40. Maybe 3000lm if it was a domed version of this?
pehaps they picked brightest bin, which obviously means worst in color remperature and tint. as they would do with any other LED, i guess.
though, i must admit that they tk16v2 has CW sst70 with green tint while LR50R seems to have better bin with no visible green even in lowest modes
Thx djozz for the test.
Looks like my choice was correct: S16 with 8A driver and SFT40. Ordered 3 more for Sofirn SP35 no ATR and other builds
Nice convoy build. Ramping or buck? I wish I’d bought a non-atr sp35 when they existed too…
Thanks djozz for the test…
Received my M21C with SFT40. Agree with you that I see the same thing : “A bit, but acceptable, greenish at low current, ”neutral” cool white at higher currents”.
