I’m very, very impressed with all of the Sofrin lights I’ve purchased… especially the SP10 V3, the 16340 SC21 5000k light have such a gorgeous beam and are my favorite in it class… the 21700 Sofrin SP35 is very nice and an extremely good value. Do wish it was a tail cap switch though. But if the side switch instead of a tail-cap switch isn’t an issue, this is a very hard to beat value and it’s beam and overall performance is amazing. Good review.

+1 for the SP10 Pro. It's my carry, great little light. The moonlight mode is why I bought it, so low I have to use 2H in lockout to get to a higher level for 3AM bathroom trips. It surprised me how powerful it is, and that's coming from someone with a D4V2. Wonderful light, highly recommend.

Nice video. For me the hs05 is my favorite AA/14500 EDC light. I carry a 18650 (usually a warrior mini) in my belt organizer. And a 14500/16340 size light clipped to my front pocket, and the hs05 has become a favorite and have several, have several variants of the sp10 too, great light, among my favorite. I5r is in top too. Sp10 pro with anduril ui is too busy for me, want simple ui in 14500 size light. Have multiples of larger lights and lantern with different versions with anduril ui.

I'm not huge into flashlights even though I have One on me every day of my life which is either an old thrunite t 12 18650 or my 4yr old right angle zebra light in AA. I just now purchased the sofirn sp10 pro because of you with a few vapcell h10 button top and ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT.... THANK YOU!!!! I wish the clip was a tad tighter and a 1/4 inch longer,maybe just before the button switch... again.... thanks. O I love this form factor so much I just ordered another budget 14500 with aux led , wurkkos ts10..... REALLY....... THANKS AGAIN

These sound like great lights. I went to Amazon for the "non pro" version, but they were sold out. They look like a light that I'm very keen on, the Lumintop AA. But these may have a more advanced emitter. I like the ability to run AA or 14500s as well, which the Lumintop also support. I like the magnetic tail cap, even though I don't need that feature often. I usually run my lights without it most of the time. I almost won't buy a single cell AA or AAA light without a reversible clip, just in case I want to clip the light onto a hat brim for use as a headlamp. I also wish they'd offer these with a green LED. Thanks again for the tip on these! I'm going to keep an eye out for these to come back in stock.

Thank you for the video. I was thinking about finding a flashlight that I could access the high mode or low without cycling through and possibly avoid the strobe mode. Personally I wish they wouldn't have strobe mode. If they did offer each flashlight in two variants. Strobe or non strobe. For this price can't be beat. This maybe my personal and or work edc.

Sofirn sells the SP10 Pro in black, red, green, and blue. And yes, you can get magnetic tail caps in all the colors direct from Sofirn for $2.59 minus whatever discount they are offering at the time. You'll find it under ACCESSORIES on their website. I have the SP10 Pro in red and blue along with the magnetic tail cap and they match perfectly. I highly recommend the magnetic tail cap if you like to tail stand your lights.

After experiencing the SC21 Pro, I bought both SP10 models, and also the HS05, which is like the HS10 but shorter, and takes a 16340. It has USB-C charging. I also got the magnetic tail caps and a couple of extra clips. Another accessory I added was a silicone diffuser; the SP10 can easily tail-stand, so this makes them into little lanterns when needed.

If it had recharging, he would have said. So you'll need a separate charger. You might prefer the H05A or H05B, it's a US$18 18650 headlight with USB C charging. That's the one I've ordered.

@@maxlvledc Thanks, I like tail switch it's always easier to find it than the other type of switch (side type). SP10 V3 UI is like a simplified Andúril UI which makes it so nice, similar to Nitecore keychain flashlight they all have shortcuts to turbo from any light setting. All flashlights should be like that. But I still like my Olight i3T since it's only low & high mode & very compact. AA flashlights a bit heavier if clipped to a cap's visor but last longer.

I bought one of these and while waiting to get it was looking through the UI diagram and text. I am a little disappointed in how little control the UI gives you. Yeah you can adjust brightness levels and stuff but simple things like being able to set it to come on in strobe or SOS with one click isn't configurable. I hate strobe and SOS but that was just an example.

Word, as a veteran that had to carry multiple weapons everyday for half a decade, I'm adamant about telling folk the best thing to have for self-defense in most every circumstances is an LED li-ion powered torch. The brighter, the better. And I still maintain a good flashlight should not only take precedence over a CCW but be considered an absolute requirement when you do carry a weapon without exception. The advantages it creates aren't just disadvantageous to a target assailant; they're an utterly debilitating handicap. No strobe necessary. Make no mistake, the strobe has it's purposes, but they're not in self-defense. While it can certainly be disorienting for some, we're neurologically designed to compensate for our senses, unless you're fixing for flight, it's quick to adapt to. It's best reserved for the roller rink or as a signal for duress. Edit: shitty grammar
