    I have one in black one in gray. I have spent in my years well over $8000 in my light collection.from my Nitecore TN 39 Thrunite TN 42 V2 to my AceBeam K75 2.0 and so on. I have to say this little bugger always amazes me for its size. I love the UI in this light because it gives you so many options.Your presentation was spot on. Thank you for your work.👍🏼

    I can't wait to see the review on the ts10 sg. I wish there were some reviews on the ts10 max idk why they did not pass out any test models. My ts10 max is getting delivered any day and i have no clue what to expect. I have an 18650 light with 3 nichia emitters and It's amazing and powerful hopefully the ts10 max will be similar.

    • @PiercingTheDarkness

      I actually had no interest in the TS10 SG, it was just thrown in with my HD16 package. I'm not a big fan of the Anduril UI, I prefer a simple UI. Yes, I know Anduril has the Simple UI, but you have to first configure it to full output and that's a hassle. I tested it with a 55°C limit and it sustains around 260-300 lumens which is approx 110m. Not bad for the size. The TS10 Max is on the way 🙂 it's meant to use a buck driver

    I have had my HS 42 for a little more than a month now and it's very good light. I have a large yard and it lights it right up. I love the flood spot light option. I'll have the spot light on while I'm outside then when I'm walking into a dark shed or barn I put the flood lights on. I highly recommend this light it's very versatile. I do wish it came with a clip but I probably have a bunch that fit on it and if I contacted sofirn I'm sure they would send one out if i really needed one. I haven't scratched the lense yet but that's probably cause I'm careful on how I store it. The headband has been ok but I'm definitely going to check out the one you recommended. Awesome review.

  • @paultruesdale7680

    It’s a very good looking light. I was initially interested in the big batteries, but I’ve seen a few reviews with battery issues, so I’ll be sticking with multi cells for the time being. Being so off the lumen estimates and distance, just taints their reputation. Great review, music and night shots. Great to see so many comments from the community. 👍

  • @paultruesdale7680
    @paultruesdale7680 3 дня назад

    Pretty good review, I saw it Flashaholics channel and fairly impressed with it. The first few times I used it it was pretty bright but it seems to have gone off on turbo. Not too worried about it though. I bought it for the dual color temperature. The cool white is plenty for my needs and the warm temperature is very pleasing to the eyes. The laser is fairly useless and mine has a lot of artifacts, not really the thing to have with the few morons that can’t be trusted to use them responsibly. It also makes for a great showpiece with the duel color emitters. 👍

    There a many things I like about this light, the red light performance is decent, the flood and beam performed well, that ring is a pain but kind if disappears when both flood & and Tir are running together, its got stepless smooth ramping. I dont like the cool white 6-7k colour. Its type C and even has a magnet albeit a poor strength one. Im in the market for a 18650 headlamp for my brother but I take your recommendations seriously. Its a shame their areba few annoying issues because it ticks a lot of good boxes. 😢

    • @PiercingTheDarkness
      @PiercingTheDarkness 4 дня назад

      Then you should wait for the sensor to be fixed and grab one. A lot of dislikes are things that won't be a deal breaker for others. That's one thing I dislike myself, is there's no stepped ramping as an option. When I'm out on the farm, smooth ramping is useless to me when I have little idea how much runtime it has. It's just a personal preference thing, but on reddit I see that I'm not alone. If it's just for general use or one doesn't mind taking around spare cells, then that wouldn't be a problem. Quite a few on reddit are saying it's disappointing the rotary dial mixes instead of being used for adjusting the brightness, this would actually be much better. Use a dial that registers a quicker rotation would be nice too. That range is super impressive, so I'm disappointed myself when I had an interest in selling it. Lets see what the Sofirn HS41 is like.

    I wasn't really interested in this model but that's quite sad to see. I do wish Simon would focus on the firmware side of things more. Seems he's more interested in putting out new models instead of refining current ones. I know Anduril isn't everyone's cup of tea (and I'm not really an Anduril-evangelist myself, preferring simple mechanical switch UI's) but I feel like it could solve a lot of issues enthusiasts tend to have with Simon's e-switch UI's. With properly implemented (and standardized) flashing pads, and Convoy's own version of a flashing kit, it would be easier to push out fw fixes and updates etc. But I get the sense from his posts on BLF that he doesn't really *get* Anduril and has to depend on a third party (who unfortunately doesn't seem to *get* it either). Unfortunate.

    Convoy's have traditionally never had good temperature regulation anyway and with an SBT90.2 in a smallish host, the heat issues are par for the course. Is it really a driver/firmware issue specifically with this light then? But I totally agree I wouldn't lend this light to muggles. It's a fine light for hiking and walking around if you use it sparingly on turbo and high. This is why I stick to my L6/L7's for any kind of extended outdoor use.

    90c? Damn, and I thought my over driven no temp reg XML2 S2+ in 2015 was hot😅 I run my lights hot, 60-80c at most. But not boil water hot! Probably a firmware bug. Been seeing more and more over the years with companys not doing thorough testing before releasing to the masses. Considering the SBT is not a cheap LED the shavings and fit a major concern. If those two issues were fixed solid light.

      Yeah, it is concerning. It's not a bug, it's just poor firmware coding. Convoy has a history of it. The old 4X18A SBT90.2 was exceeding 80°C mid test, and the 3X21D gets hot, but it has a handle so it's not a huge problem, still not as hot as this though. The M21J has the same sustained output as the much larger 3X21D. Seems like the same firmware is being flashed over multiple models without any sort of testing. I informed Simon of the high temps and he never responded.

    Just a heads up that it's a Linear driver, not a buck driver. A fellow reviewer reached out to tell me. Sofirn told everyone it was a buck driver at the beginning 😕 . That doesn't change what I think about it though. I still think it's a great buy. My Cyansky HS6R has been my favourite until now, this HS42 holds almost 600 lumens, whereas the HS6R is only around 380, and that's a much more expensive unit. Good performance, worth looking at 🙂

      I was unsure if mine had a buck driver thanks for the information. I can usually tell if a light has a buck driver after using it for a while and this one had me confused wich is a good thing.

      Liking mine too, and the better range,. But one thing i do miss, is the Hs6r being able to use red and spot at the same time, which i was using a fair bit, ( using red to spot obstacles around feet, and mostly low spot to see where dog is, when walking beach and forest tracks on moonless nights), but always wished the red was a bit brighter, so this would have been even better with that option added, imo.

    I can't wait to get my hands on the soon to be released IF23 Pro. It has massively improved ergonomics. If the driver is decent, it'll be a game changer.

      The Convoy L21B SFT40. The Wurkkos TD01C is also very good if you need USB charging.

      Don't buy it, wait for the next batch. The sensor is buggy and needs to be disabled. If left on it reduces the output on turbo 80% of the time for no reason.

      You should check out the Wurkkos TS11 and grab the 18650 tube. It performs close to the IF22A with an 18650 .
