Hi from the Philippines 🇵🇭

Hi. I’m a newbie from the Philippines. I have several collections but I gave the rest away to my parents and siblings.

I have settled on 3 that I use everyday.

  1. Sofirn IF22A - 6000 Kelvin
  2. Sofirn SC21 (non-pro) - 5000 Kelvin
  3. Sofirn IF25A - 4000 Kelvin

I’m hoping to learn many things about flashlight, batteries, charging, etc. from everyone.

Have a great day.

Hey… warm welcome to BLF! You off on a good start…

Thanks ChibiM

Have a good one.

That’s some pretty cool lights.

Your next rabbit holes are probably CRI, R9 and tint (so, light quality and looks next to color temperature) :smile:

That’s how I ended up spending a lot of money on different LEDs after joining BLF hahahaha.

Welcome to BLF, I’m sure you’ll like it here! I’ve been on the Philippines in October, it’s a beautiful country with very cool people.

Hey ebastler!

Yes indeed! I hope you’re wrong about me buying new ones, but alas, I’m already looking for a green edc thrower… next thing you know, I’ll be looking at amber, red, blue and IR. So don’t tempt me now :joy:

There’s a lot of cool places in the Philippines. Sadly, I’m not much of a traveller so I’ve only been in a few beautiful places.

Have a great day.

Thank you raccoon!

Also, good taste. Legendary woman of martial arts, tv series and movies.

Btw: I was not offended by her remark. I totally understand what she’s talking about and had a laugh about it. :joy:

2 Thanks

Wow, that remark is from 2012.
I don’t think I noticed it at the time, but I looked it up today. :+1:

Haha! I thought you knew about it since you used her picture. Anyway, she’s still one of the best.

Raccoon has a big collection of famous women and uses their pictures mostly at random to greet newcomers :smile:

2 Thanks

Yep, that’s me all right! :grin:

Wahahaha! Nice one. A man of culture. Respect! :saluting_face:

BTW, i tried to post a DIY diffuser and the app said I can use 5 pictures. Then when I was about to post it, I was only allowed 1 picture. How long before I’m allowed to add more media?

Thank you Sudsy!

So far so good.

I’m enjoying my stay.

I like that SC21 very much. I got rid of my “Pro” version - mushy button versus the original.
