Sofirn IF24 Pro Super Bright Flashlight for Emergencies, 1800LM LED Flashlights for Camping, Rechargeable Flashlights High Lumens, Waterproof Flash Light Battery Powered, Magnetic Red Light Flashlight

Bright, and I mean BRIGHT. Both white outputs are 5,000 degree K which means daylight and/or high CRI. (Color rendering Index) I'm a comm tech and a high CRI light makes ID'ing fiber-optic cable colors easy. 6,500 K (bluish) or 3,500 K (yellowish) lights skews colors too much, such as CAT 5 cables etc., hard to tell between green and blue) The side light means no carrying a diffuser because it's a broad flood. The RGB is good for camping as some colors don't attract insects light white. I carry mine in a Nite-Ize Pock-its belt pack, and it fits nicely. A quarter turn of the battery cap fully locks it out. The cap is a magnet, so you can stick it anywhere there's metal. (Equipment rack, under a truck hood, etc.) Quality built, all aluminum. The control ring and button setup is an easy and intuitive interface. Battery is 18650 so charging can be either the built in type C (THANK YOU Sofirn for that, no stupid micro-USB!) or dropping it or a spare in a smart charger.

I recently got my hands on the IF24 Pro flashlight, and I have to say, it's quickly become one of my favorite gadgets. The front-facing light is impressively bright, and the side-mounted COB light is just awesome. It comes equipped with both RGB and white LEDs, and there's even a red-blue flashing mode for emergencies—which can be really useful.Using the flashlight is super intuitive. The rotatable ring and straightforward button system make it easy to switch between modes, and there's a simple lock position to prevent accidental activation. I like the size. It is just right—not too big to carry around, although it might be a snug fit in smaller pockets. The magnetic tail cap and removable clip add an extra layer of convenience, whether you're attaching it to a metal surface or clipping it to your belt.Charging is a breeze with USB-C compatibility, and it's reassuring to know that the flashlight has CE and RoHS certification. Overall, the IF24 Pro is a versatile, high-quality flashlight packed with useful features.

What I like:1. good settings and options2. Great variety of options with the LED.3. Physical lockout system.4. Improved manual.5. The light focus is a huge improvement from IF23.6. The police light is a good touch.Sounds great but don't work in practice:1. The physical dial is not very secure and switches inside a bag or pocket. Please add a notch so turning the dial has some resistance.2. Having the light turn on when you switch the dial- very very bad idea. Please change immediately! I mean it it will change in your bag and suddenly you find you don't have battery power, or you've now woken someone up trying to get to red light. Common guys this is a flunk but it can be fixed. Just make sure the light stays off when switching. Add a lowlight led to the dial to see what mode your in. Massive fix at little to no cost.3. The charge light is really bright when you turn the flashlight on, yes it goes away and is placed to the side(better than the IF23) yet if you are in need of the light you will notice how you may get blinded by the green light.4. Please add a physical difference between the 4 sides of the dial, a grove unique to each side would work. This will allow someone to identify the dial mode/rotation in the dark without needing illumination.Reason the IF23 is better:1. Access all settings with a single button.2. Water resistant.3. Battery capacity.4. 2 way charging.May this information guide your purchase.

Great little flashlight. It's plenty bright, and the ability to adjust the brightness is awesome. The RGB LEDs are cool, and I don't really have a use for it, but they're fun. The magnetic base is awesome. If I'm working on building inside of a PC, I can just stick it to the side of the base and it stays in place. If I'm doing some duct work, it sticks to the side of the ducts. This is my first flashlight with lights on the side instead of just at the end like a normal flashlight. I don't know how I could go back to a traditional flashlight now. I use the side-lights more than the front light.The light-type selector is very nifty. At first I thought I would like a traditional toggle-button more, but this light has converted me to the spinner-type selector. There's a web of instructions that makes the button and spinner seem complicated, but once you try it out, it's pretty intuitive.The build quality feels high, and it in no way feels like the manufacturer cheaped out on anything. I'm a little worried the finish would get scratched up over time, but it I don't really know of any finish that wouldn't.I haven't used it enough to drain the battery but I've been a couple of hours of drain on the battery and the indicator light hasn't changed from being green yet.I would recommend this flashlight, and I even bought a second one for a bundle of stuff I was gifting to a couple as a wedding present. Even if you have enough light in your life, maybe somebody you know could use a flashlight like this.
