Got for a great sale price and LOVE this light. Very durable great setting and battery life. Number one self defense tool, a very bright light. Get one!

I've been a flashlight lover since I bought my first LED flashlight sometime back in 2005. Over the years, I've used all sorts of lights from simple 1 AAA battery lights to modern 18650 flashlights that have complicated interfaces. I've been a fan of Sofirn flashlights since I bought my first Sofirn SP10 a few years ago. Since then I've probably purchased about ten Sofirn lights. I like them because they are well made, bright, have useful features, and cost considerably less than the more famous brands like Surefire, Streamlight, and Pelican. Well this flashlight is no exception.This is my first 21700 battery flashlight and it is considerably larger than a standard 18650 battery light. I'd say that this SP35T is about 40-50% larger than an 18650, so it is not really an EDC light for someone like me, who prefers to EDC smaller flashlights. This is more of a tool box, glove compartment, or bedside drawer sized flashlight. But what you gain by going up a size is the light output. This flashlight is bright! When I got her, I charged her overnight and tested her out during the daytime and the TURBO mode was so bright, it brightened the entire room even though the evening sun was shining in through the windows of my office.At night, the modes are useful, and the middle level is probably sufficient for 90% of the tasks you'll ever need a flashlight for, but the high mode is really bright and is about as bright as the high end of a typical 18650 light. The TURBO modes blows away my other flashlights of this size. At night, the TURBO mode will blind you even if you are looking at it from a distance of about 50 feet. It is like having a small blazing sun pointed at you.I liked the simple interface, the two switch mode of operation (tail cap switch for on/off/momentary, and the side switch for levels), and I liked the beam pattern. It is not very tight and gives a large, voluminous cone of light that is useful for lighting up things in the near distance and up to maybe 100 feet in the higher modes. The beam pattern reminds me of another one of my favorite EDC lights, the Streamlight Jr., but this light is far superior in brightness and throw distance.Pros:1. Excellent brightness on the top end2. Useful brightness levels3. Easy to use, intuitive interface with some nifty shortcut modes4. Sturdy build quality - the light feels solid5. Excellent run-time, especially on the lower brightness modes6. IPX8 waterproof rated, which means you can use it at the bottom of a pool if needed7. Easy to recharge with a USB-C cable, which is convenient since you don't need a special charger for the 21700 battery8. Comes with a 21700 battery installedCons:1. Kinda big for an EDC light - this is more of a tool box or bedside light2. 21700 batteries can be expensive and hard to find if you are not familiar with them

One of the best EDC flashlights ice ever had!I bought these for a backup for my streamlight. These are brighter, last longer, have more settings and are very very durable! The size is perfect for your pocket and they dont weigh a ton. The clip is awesome too, you can clip to a hat or your pocket. It has multiple programmable settings from low to high to multistrobe, fast then slow strobe along with other settings. The design makes to charge as theirs a waterproof part that opens to a type c charge port on the outside of the light. 10/10

I use the flashlight everyday. The pocket clip is the main reason I bought it because the previous flashlight I owned would constantly fall out of my pocket. The battery life is good and it’s pretty bright. The only discrepancy I have is the flashlight does not have wide focus on it. I would definitely buy this flashlight again.

I have been a fan of Sofirn lights for a while now. They are great quality and reasonably priced.This is a light I have been waiting for them to release. This light combines the best features of some of their prior lights I own. This light has the larger 21700 battery, brightness and onboard USB C charging of the SP35. It combines these features with a tail switch similar to that found on the SP31V2.0.I am a fan of the tail switch when carrying the light in a pocket or bag because there is no chance of it turning on accidentally as a side switch only light can do if not locked out. I am also a fan of the simplified user interface that comes with this setup. I can let others use the light without much explanation.The light has two modes. Normal and Tactical. You can switch to tactical mode by holding down side switch for 3 seconds while the flashlight is ON. Once in tactical mode, it will always come on in turbo and a double tap of the tailswitch is a shortcut to strobe.I will probably be using it primarily in the normal mode where the tailswich turns the light in and the side switch cycles through the brightness levels. It will remember the last level and turn on back to that level.It has the normal led indicator in the side switch that will indicate the battery level. Green is good, red means battery is low.This is another great light from Sofirn. I will be purchasing more of this light in the future.
