It can get super hot, that 16K doesnt last long. Use molicel P45B for 20K + lumens. I put a Convoy handle on mine. A very impressive wall of light for the money.
Love this light it's definitely one of the best value for money when it comes to light output, i use the molicel p42a high discharge cells in mine for over 20,000 lumens output, very impressive for a light in this size.
@@CharlesBridgTec This size (the size is not so important, could be even bigger). Is for hunting/fishing at night. I am interested in a flashlight that can last longer. It will be used to light up an area at 250 - 300 meter maximum. Thx.
@@george33333Lumintop Mach V2 with the 4695 battery. I have that and this Q8+, if money is a factor go with the Q8+ but if not definitely go with the Lumintop(10k more lumens than the Sofirn along with double the battery capacity)
I just ordered this light. Expected delivery tomorrow. The price point and UI is what made my decision as a first big boy torch. Thanks for the review!!!
Try to factory reset light by holding down the side switch while you fully tighten the barrel until it blinks. Then try to see if that helps. Thanks for watching!
can someone help me, my sofirn q8 plus isnt that powerfull anymore and i think i know why, i havent cleaned it and it says in the manual to clean it or else it may effect the performance, but how do i clean it? where do i clean and with what
Hello, I have a query. I plan to buy this flashlight, but the primary concern is its battery. Which battery should I purchase, the factory one or the Molicel one? I would like to know if using these two unprotected cells in SoFirn Q8 Plus is safe for me? It would mean a lot to me if you could assist me. Thank you.. I apologize for my poor English
You can only use unprotected cells in this light for protected cells are too long. Molicel battery would be an upgrade but the cells that come with it are fine. Thanks for watching!
@CharlesBridgTec I always watch your reviews. It's just sad every time i catch that made in China label. I know you have no control. As for the politicians, let's just say Benedict Arnold was an amateur, if you get my drift.
I just got sofirn Q8plus and the batteries are included. Do you recommend buying batteries with protected cells? Or are the sofirn batteries sufficient and there is nothing wrong with that?
