- Hello CZcams, Flashlight Enthusiast here! Sofirn SC31T is a newer model of a very succesful SC31 Pro with SST40 and over 2.000 lm @ turn on. With simpler UI and tactical button it is intended for less experienced non-enthusiast users, armed forces or just for those who like to have tail switch instead of the side one. Enjoy!

Thanks for the video, please between 5000k and 6500k which one do you prefer? Brilliance, beam distance..
This is actually a REALLY detailed and comprehensive review, much appreciated, sir!
Thank you ☺️
Great review, i really appriciate the detailed information. Answered all my questions.
Thanks, glad I could help
Thanks for the video
I just bought the IF22A and the IF25A 4000k. Also bought an extra IF25A for a Christmas gift!
*I have the SC31Pro and always wanted the same model but with a tactical tail switch, glad they came up with the SC31T.*
*If only they could have changed the clip for a deeper carry clip it would be a perfect EDC light.*
*Maybe change the bezel for a steel crenelated bezel since it's supposed to be a tactical version.*
I think you can flip the body of it right??? That is how it works on the pro. EDIT I see what you mean now. The clip with 2 directions! My bad
PARABENS ÓTIMO VÍDEO, BEM EXPLICATIVO😀
Thanks a lot!
Nice comparison and chart👍🏼. i'd like to see whether they still use the same 'rollercoaster' regulation on the coming sp33S.
Cheers
Thank you! I suppose every Sofirn with ATR will have that. I wish I was wrong though ;)
I love the magnet. I like the pro version.
love your channel brother keep on keepin on ill see you in the next one
Hello. This is my first video I watched from you. Very detailed. I would like to ask before purchasing this light, can I use different 18650 batteries in these? I'm totally new to rechargeable batteries but I would like to know if I have to keep the same mah and that sort of thing. I gotta do more reading. Thanks in advance!
Hello, welcome to the family! You can use other 18650 batteries as long as they fit and provide enough current. In case of this flashlight I recommend unprotected (so shorter, without additional protection circuit on top), flat top (opposite to button top). Sanyo GA, Samsung 35E or LG MJ1 are good choice here. They all can handle around 10A continuous discharge current. Make sure to source them from trusted shop, as they are lots of fakes on the market (usually can be spotted by lower price, however not always). Enjoy!
Co to może być że co 10 sek zmieniają się tryby?
I have the SC31Pro
Спасибо за сравнение
Glad I could help
Nice review friend!
I got a question, can I charge this flashlight using a regular 5V 2A android charger? Does this flashlight have some tipe of internal energy regulation so a android charger can be used safely?
Thank you! Absolutely, you can use your 2A 5V charger
As duas são incompatíveis são tops muito boa mesmo
Can I screw in tactical cap into PRO model and expect it to work as supposed or is it not possible? Have you tried? I think this would be important in especially this comparison and having both of the lights in your hands. Thanks, Pro model is hopefully being shipped to me right now, and your vid helped a lot! Thanks!
I think I showed it in the video...
@@FlashlightEnthusiast Well then If so, then Im sorry, dont know how I skipped it. Will check. Thanks!
How do you configure the ramping mode? How many clicks u put in floor and how many clicks u put in ceiling?
I believe you'll find all the answers with detailed explanation in my other video here: czcams.com/video/ntIJTVm0cp4/video.html
@@FlashlightEnthusiast thank you very much sir! It is indeed very detailed and i understand it now.
Can't you use magnetic tail cap with sc31t? Or it will always be switched on all the time using the normal tail cap?
It will be switched on anyway, provided that tailcap actually fits.
je viens de commander la sc32 avec perle sft40 ! elle est magnifique une vraie petite bombe , je suis impatient de la recevoir maintenant . ma prochaine commande chez sofirn sera pour la sc31pro et la sc31t , et je vais acheter le tube court de la sp40 afin de pouvoir raccourcir la sc31t et la sc31pro , je ne sais pas si c'est un tube court pour 18350 ou 16340 . comme ça je pourrais passer de la sc31pro et la sc31t en version mini pocket pour les deux modèles , j'imagine déjà la sc31pro avec le tube court et l'interrupteur arrière de la sc31t ! c'est ça que j'adore chez sofirn justement , c'est qu'on peut facilement modifier les flaslights .
D'ailleurs sofirn à créé un tube court pour la wurkkos Fc12 et la fc11 , la fc11 est la même que la sc31pro en terme de taille et dimensions . belle vidéo merci à toi ! ☺️
Thank you! Short tubes are so nice, I appreciate Sofirn went this direction.
with the SC31T can you set the tail switch to always turn on in Turbo mode?
pls answer im planning to buy this
Hi, yes, if you set it to Turbo mode, it remembers the last used mode - tail switch only works to turn on/off the flashlight.
bonjour , excellente vidéo , dit moi , est ce que le tube de la sc31t avec son interrupteur , est ce que le tube de la 31t avec son interrupteur fonctionne sur la tête de la sc31 pro ? j'ai vu que tu as essayé , mais est ce que cela fait fonctionner la tête de la sc31pro avec le corps et l'interrupteur de la sc31t ? Merci d'avance . et un pouce bleu bien mérité :)
Theoretically yes, but you still need to operate it via side switch, despite having tail switch in on position - so tail switch is useless there, unless you want the lockout via it...
thx for your help :)
What about warming and temp?
SC31T - set thermal limit for 45°C, you can do nothing about it
SC31 Pro - here you can set it manually as high as 70°C or as low as 30°C, with 1 degree increments
Jak wyłączyć podświetlenie przycisku?
W SC31T nie ma takiej możliwości. W SC31 Pro 7klik z wyłączonej, tak jak w każdym Andurilu
@@FlashlightEnthusiast klikam 7 razy i tak caly czas podświetla
Is there a Sofrin with a focusable lens?
No, but I can reccomend Convoy Z1 or a novelty - On the road i5 available on Aliexpress
@@FlashlightEnthusiast - LOL! 🤣 I would simply like a quality high lumen flashlight like my Sofrin SC32 (2k Lumens) that has a focusable lens. I keep buying Amazon junk and giving them away. I get you think that is a novelty toy item, but it does have a use and comes in handy. Just bought a Sofrin Q8 Pro thanks to you BTW, it hasn’t arrived yet. I used to have a good one that died… and would like another. Unfortunately it was about 8 years old and I can’t find it.
@@FlashlightEnthusiast - My apologies, I think I misunderstood your comment. I focused on the word ‘Novelty’ and assumed you were being sarcastic, nicely saying zoomable flashlights weren’t serious flashlights. I thought it was funny, my bad. Checked out the Z1 and it looks interesting! Thank you! Don’t have any with that battery size, I’ve stuck to 18650’s as I can recharge 4-8 at a time and swap them out as needed. Thanks for the response and so sorry I took your response as sarcasm. 👍🏽🥰
Thanks for this great review 👍
I guess there is an important difference between the 2 model which is crucial to my purchase decision
If the T model interrupt the current then should have no battery self discharge in the long term, I mean you can leave it in the backpack and rest assured to find with same battery level and ready to use
The pro on the other side wit that electronic side switch might constantly drain little current that I'm the long term deplete the battery so you need periodical check / recharge, which I hate and forget to do
Can you confirm my thoughts? Thanks 🙏 I put the CZcams like on the video 👍
Yes, you are right. Electronic switch draws some minor current. It can be easily fixed by unscrewing the tailcap lightly, thus switching off current flow.
How does it compare against the Acebeam w30
Why would you campare small EDC flashlight to a high end LEP?
5000k or 6500k which is better?
Depends on your preference really. 6500K is more blueish, 5000K should be more like pure white, maybe with slightly greenish tint. Cool white is generally more efficient - so less heat and slightly more bright. But thats it.
@@FlashlightEnthusiast thanks!
@@FlashlightEnthusiast I just received my SC31 pro 5000K, and I must say I am very disappointed with the tint. It is very green. Might have to look into an emitter swap, although I don't have the tools to do it, might have to find anyone who can swap the emitter.
Sorfin SC 31 pro awaria nie świeci jak jest skręcony i przycisk się nie podświetla dobiero jak się odkręcić prawie całkowicie to świeci co to może być?
Reklamować
I can't decide whether I prefer 6500k or 5000k.
Take both ;)
@@FlashlightEnthusiast agree
I'm on the same boat now, lol. Probably get 6500K for a lil more brightness since both seems to have same CRI.
hello are you getting my messages or not i cant tell youtube keeps messing with me so not sure please let me know
