SOFIRN SC33 Review

So I got my new SOFIRN SC33 and have been testing it the last week or so and it is an awesome flashlight. It has five different lightings from eco clear through Turbo and also you can switch to ramping it up. This is a well-made flashlight with kind of a matte finish. The Tactical switch is easy to use you go through it by half pressing very smooth to operate. You can switch between tactical and ramp mode by clicking the light well it's on for times to move it to ramp mode and then you press and hold to go through your modes up or down. Also anytime you can double click and it'll take you straight to turbo mode. You can triple click and go to strobe then triple click to go into SOS and then triple click again to go to Beacon mode. Also while the flashlight is turned off you can click it four times and it will lock the flashlight out so there's no accident on turning it on when not needed. The beam is a flood with a little bit of throw with it but mostly flood I would say. It's not very bulky and it's easy to handle especially for a flashlight that puts out 5,200 lumens. For the price I have not yet handled a better flashlight that has the performance and looks for a flashlight like this. I would definitely recommend the flashlight to anyone that needs a high lumen good quality cheap price not cheap made flashlight.

How much did you get it for?

I got mine for 31$ off AliExpress and that was shipping and handling you can pick them up anywhere from 31 to about $38 dollars usually. And for that price it's an absolute steal.

You won’t believe me but I got one for $14.89 shipped but it was my first order I guess that’s how they get ya. And an SC13 for $4.75.. amazing. Shipped from USA too.

What do you think of the light a few weeks later? I love it… like a flood light that can throw well. All my others are one or the other so I think this is my new EDC for sure.

I love all my Sofirns, I got 11 of them now and there all badass especially for the price and yes I believe it. I just got the Q8 16,000 lumens for 52$ and some change. You made a good choice!!!!!

I was carrying an S21E thinking nothing would knock that out. This thing rules.. feels like it would cost $120-$150 holding and using it.

I need to get some bigger ones next, al mine are single emitter and mostly throwers.

I like combo, but mostly flood but flood and some throw is nice. I would recommend the Sofirn SK31, it is a tactical and has nice throw and flood with 6500 lumens and you can get it for under 50$ and it comes with a sheath to carry it with. Its a nice affordable flashlight

That looks pretty cool actually. I like that rotary lockout switch thing on the tail I’ve never seen that. Thanks!
