What do you think about Sofirn this year? What progress and changes have you noticed that we’ve made in the past year, and what needs to be improved?
Overall I can certainly say the interaction with this forum have been very welcome and it seems like you seem to interact more and more, which is very nice! I really like the sneak-peaks at things you guys are working on, and IMO you may for sure share more pictures and stuff
I like how you seem to refine the well-selling flashlights but also bring out new stuff (IF22A is something I would like to pick up, if you launch an Anduril 2 version, and the D25R is another very interesting headlamp).
Over the past year I’m very happy that powerbank functionality seems to be added to every new light, and that USB-C-C charging works very well. Also good to see USB-C almost everywhere, but I’d prefer it if the port could be hidden behind some screw-cap instead of a rubber flap.
Some other things that would make your lights even more awesome (certainly for other forum members, maybe not so much for the general public):
AUX RGB LED’s in the front optic and behind the switch (with Anduril 2)
Flashing pads
Constant current driver so the brightness stays the same over the whole battery-voltage range
What do you think is best thing that we’ve done this year? What new expectations for Sofirn do you have for the new year?
I’m really happy with the Q8 Pro I recently got, what a beast! I also love the new white + red headlamps! And I must say I look forward to the release of the bigger LT1 with red LED’s and to the LT1 mini
Keep up the awesome work guys, I’ve bought a ton of lights over the last two years and I’ll certainly keep buying more
I think your portfolio ist still lacking a “granny light”. Several Posts have shown, that there is demand. I hope this project will BE picked up again…
I’ve been quite happy with the variety of lights you’ve put out this year. It seems you’ve been taking feedback on designs and have been trying to fill gaps in your product line.
I hope to see more collaborative projects in the future. There are a number of ongoing BLF projects right now, and I’d like to see them come to fruition!
Longtime lurker, short time joiner so I don’t qualify for the drawing, but I just wanted to say that I am HUGE fan of the usb-c to usb-c charging! Thank you for including that in the new lights! Keep up the great work!
Thanks for the Giveaway!
I own several SP10’s and one SC31 that I take to work with me everyday. Its holding up very well.
I think adding Anduril to your lights is one of the best moves you every made and making some of BLF’s projects come to life is very much appreciated.
2021 - D25LR is the best value for money headlamp.
2022 - would like to see a tail e-switch only, Anduril based, 18650 tube light (SC31 Pro, but with tail switch).
I like the colored Sofirn flashlighs in green and blue.
Please consider selling hosts of your flashlights again, for example of the Q8 and the LT1.
It would be nice if you could use more high cri leds, the XHP50 and XHP70 are quite nice with 90 CRI. For the new year, it would be great if Sofirn could bring out the LT1 mini and maybe a successor of the IF25 with tint ramping and maybe also more leds. Also, I would love to see a high power flashlight with 7 or 8 XHP70.2 from Sofirn.
Thanks for the opportunity.
My best purchase from you this year was the HS05. I really like the size of this headlamp, the only thing I don’t understand is why you didn’t fit it with an OP reflector. And it would be nice to have a TIR version of it.
What I think would be good to improve, for example, is that every torch should have a button light that can be enabled so that it can be found in the dark.
