The Story of SC31 Family

A great idea in theory but I suspect that changes like that would push up the prices to be closer to Noctigon prices. Sofirn exists in a different market segment from Noctigon/Emisar right now. I’m not sure how they’d do if they cost the same amount as Noctigon/Emisar but were less showy.

It’s a different processor (or at least I hope it is, t1616) and the flashing interface is not compatible. It is a lot simpler (UPDI) and yes there should be a pad (only 1 pad is needed, plus the battery and ground contacts, though 3 pads can be more convenient). It would be great if there was some kind of standardization across brands for UPDI.

Thanks for the breakdown and history. I really admire transparency of how the pandemic has hurt sales and such as well as interest/demand. I like the idea of SC31T, with the momentary tail switch and e-switch with simple UI. Anduril is nice, but not for everyone. I agree though to offer it with warmer options than 6500K, like 5000K, and different emitters like xhp50.2 with OP reflector and SFT40-W with SMO reflector. Also, please do different colors like with SP10S (green, tan, blue, camo, etc).

I really like my sc31 pro with its nice rubber switch and UI. Great pocketable EDC. Only thing I would change is smooth reflector though. OP would suit it better with a wider hotspot. Also different leds choice would be nice.
As for the T version I will probably get one when warmer leds are released. Only 6500k is a pity.

I would prefer a tail switch and better sustained heat handling (250lm is not good).

The old/original SC31 was a very friendly light, the perfect light for The Muggle™.

Brightness was good, switch was easy to find, UI was simple, was very hard to hurt yourself.

The magnetic tail cap is in stock, which is suitable for SC31 Pro and SP40. Now black and green are available now, blue will be available soon. CLICK TO CHECK

Nice!!! Now can we please have Green 18350 tubes as well??? (Sofirn already makes the short tube for green SP40, so this shouldn’t be a big problem!?)

Will you offer SFT40 option for SC31T?

I’d prefer the 10mm shorter length of SC31T over Wurkkos FC12…
But maybe FC12 has a deeper reflector?

Yes to SFT40.

I’ve come full circle. Back to simple is better. I don’t, and never did use any of the andruil functions other than ramp. The last convoy I ordered is a simple off/on 4 mode. Works perfect.

SFT40 needs a deeper reflector, otherwise it can't produce long-distance light.

we don't have plan for that, if you like 18350 tube, SF40 is a good choice for you.

Is the strobe on the SC31T constant or alternating frequency?
It would be better if the turbo and strobe mode were also memorized.

I would like to see a single tail e-switch version of the SC31 Pro with Anduril 2.

Yup, me too!

You mean with an inner tube like a FW3A?

You guys make an amazing product and are always innovative

Yes, it would need an inner tube. It would be very popular.

Maybe Sofirn could pull it off better than Lumintop did. Seems like a lot of moving parts just to get a tail E switch though. It would be nice if Sofirn made a slick little 18650 light under 100mm long with charging.

SC31T strobe is alternating frequency. SC31pro will switch to Anduril2 when it's the right time.
