Thanks for the review, SoCal. I really like what I’ve been seeing from Sofirn. They sent me a SF36 to review (here) and I thought it was a nice light. I ordered their C8 host from their Aliexpress store about a month back, should be coming in soon. I like my Convoy C8’s, but I see a couple advantages with what I’m expecting from Sofirn’s C8:
- Anodizing - sometimes I feel like Convoy’s matte is just too matte. Sofirn’s seems very nice.
- AR lens - some, but not all Convoys come with AR. I like that it’s included with Sofirn’s.
- Body tube - nice, something a little different than the standard gnurling
- Tailcap - I like that the cap is formed into the saddle shape. I find it a bit easier to press, and it shows off a lit tailcap more when viewed from the side.
I can’t wait for my host to come in and start playing with it!
