I have some of the older sofirn mini lights. I would recommend going for an 18650 battery size light if you can. The life of these are too short, and my sofirns had some phantom drain, so they were always dead when you needed them.

for those worried about phantom drain, this is a common problem with ALL lights that have an e-switch power button. Two ways to avoid it: 1) buy a light with a mechanical switch, 2) unscrew the cap slightly to break the connection and just tighten it back up when you need to use the light.

Gave these out to everyone as stocking stuffers last year. Everyone loves them.

I already have too many lights around.

Just a heads up. Bought a sofirn light from Aliexpress was a counterfeit.
how do we know if it's a real or counterfeit one? I just ordered Q8 plus on Aliexpress a few days ago.

Where to select "product from the US warehouse" to avoid the tariff?
Use code: SAVENOW30

For 10% off. Helps to offset Duty but you'll have to add more to meet the free shipping minimum.

None of thier "flash sale" items ship from the US warehouse.

Because it's an international charge there is no tax. So for people in high sales tax areas like LA thats another 10% savings.

Edit: Code actually only gave me 10% off.

This is my favorite compact light. Nice and bright and battery lasts long enough. I don't ever see it mentioned, but it has a "lock" feature in the UI. A triple click of the button will lock the flashlight from turning on. A triple click disables the lock. Nice for pocket carry!

Says :55 on turbo. Will it really run an hour on turbo straight? I'd be good with 40 min of turbo mixed with 25 min of high, but it's hard to tell on what the real figures are.
Yes and no. It will do :55 on turbo BUT only the first 30s will be 1100lm. Because of the size there will be significant thermal buildup so the output will decrease significantly to compensate. While it will still be in turbo mode, the initial brightness of turbo is what most people think of. FL1 standard allows it to decrease all the way to 10% of the initial brightness, so this will be ~110lm at 55 minutes

30% off is before they calculate the shipping minimum. They have accessories you can add or order 4 flashlights.

Coupon still doesn't work after adding 4 SC13 lights (2 black, 2 green). When applying the coupon, it doesn't change the prices and just shows text/link of "You can add items to get 10% off Add" below the coupon code box.

--

On the final payment page, it also says "Sorry, This discount code isn't valid for the items in your order" when trying to apply the SAVENOW30 code to the order.

Last time I ordered from them, it got stateside very quickly. Unfortunately, it was delayed by whatever customs/import process once here. All told, it was a little over three weeks to arrive.

The flash pricing only applies to a quantity of 1 for each flash item. If you add more than 1, the price goes way up.

SAVENOW30 didn't work for the flash items, but I bought an extra pair of batteries. For whatever reason DAD20 gave me a better discount.

Trump's tariffs added 15% to my total.
