As the designer of the BLF LT1 series for Sofirn, this is a great review! The most recent LT1M mini 21700 was designed with campers & compactness in mind, while the original LT1 was designed for those who have no space limitations & preferred longer "all-night" run times. - DBSAR
As the designer of any Sofirn lantern, should really consider including a half round diffuser, cover. Nothing like using a handheld lantern with the light shining right back in your face. Could this be remedied with gaffers, tape sure, but not as easily removed and installed when wanted.
This looks so beautiful. I have Ledlenser ML4 and it's extremely nice while hanging. But these lanterns throw a downwards light. So room becomes darker if you keep it on table instead of hanging. LT1 is not available in India as of now. But I'll surely buy it once it's available.
Thanks! Yeah its much more portable than the LT1 and packs a lot of the original great features! Yes, recently picked up the Lumix S5. Previously has been shooting on my phone / insta360 oneR which were both lacking a lot in low light performance. The S5 is a bit out of my league but I am hoping to grow into it over the next few years! Btw, I am launching an online flashlight store and am going to be stocking some new RovyVon, ArmyTek, Acebeam, Lumintop, Amutorch and a few others. It would be great to have you review something!

@@UrbanSurvivor belmunda lantern is the ultimate in warmth but its micro usb. I'm telling you man the belmunda lantern is the King in relaxing warmth, no so good on battery life though. But it's excellent in mood light for dinners and reading. I keep it plugged in by the bed
