Sofrin/Peax headlamps

[Frequently Banned Troll]

@rjthehunter my better half got these for my kids for Christmas this year. I haven’t tried them out or asked how they like them yet but appreciate the hot tip. I was asked if they had their own headlamps and i suggested these based on your input here and the price was right.

They perform just like the expensive ones I've had!

I think there's a lot of expensive gear we all own that's basically rebranded stuff. This thread was kind of a spinoff from the "things that punch above their pricepoint" thread.

Anyone try the Coast brand version?

Waterproof instead of water resistant. Price point is in between. I’ve been very happy with my Coast FL75, but the red light is lacking sometimes.

Anyone tried the H35B model sofirn? Specs say it’s 2000 lumens and uses the same 18650 battery. I ordered one to try it.

I have not, I have tried the H05B one that's 1200 lumens and it also works great!

The HS21 (2200 with red) has been sitting on my WishList for a week, please keep us posted how you guys like them.

I have the HS41 scheduled to get here Tuesday. I’ll post some thoughts when I test it out.

So, obviously lots of folks like the sofirn headlamps (and I know this is a headlamps thread)....but curious if anyone has feedback on sofirn flashlights?

Seems like picking up one or two flashlights for the house or truck might be a good idea....

Same reasoning as the headlamps… what’s the worst that could happen - you wasted $20 on a crap flashlight? I’ve wasted $20 on dumber stuff.

That, sir, is an extremely fair point.
