Good review. Sofirn. A budget brand. Color ramping, stepmode or ramping. This light has it all. No topbrand even comes close. I have this IF25 for more than 6 months and it is really top notch. Not a single failure
Ok, there are lights with white, red and green or even uv. Bot no light can imitate sunlight from full daylight to evening red. This light is a gamechanger as I called it once and it is still very impressive. And that price, $25? Look at the prices of the so called topbrands.. none has anything like this
It's a great light, the price shocked me. Yet another Sofirn light that worked 100%.
Have this light for almost a year and i can't say anything different.
constantly using it for 2 hours at a medium brightness how would it do with battery lasting and heat?
Lumintop fw4x also does this
I've been waiting for lower k lights for years. Looks like it's time to replace my drawer full of fenix lights. This is lighting as god intended lol.
Another good flashlight...
Another great review.
A little late to the party, but decided to add this inexpensive fun light to my collection. A really intuitive well implemented user interface, barely had to refer to the manual at all (watching reviews and being familiar with lots of other flashlights helps of course). One nifty little feature I don't see many people mention (or perhaps I didn't paid enough attnetion) is that you can do morse signalling with it, something normally reserved for lights with a backside tactical switch. When the light is in the lock-out mode, the switch becomes a momentum operational switch. Press it and light activates, release and it switches off. Now you can perform morse signalling despite the light only having a single side switch. Very nicely implemented UI indeed.
Don’t feel bad. I’m even later. How’s the flashlight?
late? you tell me.. i'll soon receive it in two days..😅
Great review. Thanks!
Good review! Nice background music.
that's a nice and interesting one, changes the light temperature as you like it, this is a unique selling point, as far as I know , gefällt mir 👍
My IF25 got delivered today! It only took 13 days from the day I ordered it to arrive in Pennsylvania. Great little light! No ugly green tint when set at the cool end. But I got it to use mostly at the warmer end anyway. Using one of my Samsung 50E's in it since there's barely any difference in the output compared to the 40T 😁👍
It's not the perfect tint solution but for the price it's great fun.
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV I really like the size of it and its unique ability to change color temperature. Thanks again for the great review!
Ordered one May 24th. Still waiting... should be a fun light though.
Hey, great review as always. Your candle and throw numbers are switched I think.
Good review.
Nice review,just want to know if the flashlight is Anduril UI ?
Got my IF25 today.After watching your Video last week i had to get this one over the IF25a and luckily could grab one on eBay for under 20€.To change the light temperature is a awesome feature.love it
My most used light still!
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV Nice.Do you still use the 21700 40T battery?For now i use a Samsung 50T battery but this one only has 15A output.I think i will order also a 40t
@@sebw3964 currently got a P42A in there
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV nice this one is even better.Did not noticed this battery.Thanks and Cheers
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV can I ask why most used light. Is it mainly the colour adjustment? You said you like natural warm in this vid and I find the 25A quite warm I think @ 4400k but would prefer it more a bit cooler but it's ok. I hate the lanyard sharp thing more and it's on both models! Such a blight on the design that should never have got into production. It's like these people are so clever they are stupid or more likely just cost to change so they waved it through and never even fixed it on the 25a. The Seeknite seems impressive.
USB C and 2500 lumens for $25, insane.
how hard would it be to put in a Samsung LH351D in it instead to get 90 cri the whole ramping?
Hmmm, my readings (calibrated lumen tube) are usually within 50 lumens of yours but this light measured only 1700 (cool leds) at 30 sec using a 40T.
Thanks! :)
Hola, si os ha gustado ésta su evolución IF25a os enamorará... Más potente y más divertida gracias a Anduril!
Now that’s something refreshing.
Have you tested sofirn sp33 v3?
3:03 specification from manual med2 450 lm, high 1100 lm but the results from the test med2 216lm, high 551 lm why are the results so very different
Not on amazon what a shame 😔 i want to buy it
⚠️ Do not go to a Dangerous Place. You know not what waits for YOU 👻
Great video 😉👍🏻
Is it true that using this at 2700k would give you more visibility in foggy/misty conditions than 6500k?
Yep cooler light gets more refraction. It’s the reason you see more of a beam of light. I can notice it a lot between a 4000k and 6000k light I have.
Question: You mentioned a lower amp cell is better for 2700k for the LEDs, does it mean higher Amp will damage it?
I think I vaguely remember something about SST high cri not liking being pushed too hard.
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV oh... Hmm i might reconsider an if25 a instead. Im worried it might break
Does that mean only 2 LED is being used or will it adjust from 2 LED 2700k, then 4 LED 2700k/6500k and then 2 6500K?
it will adjust
I can only find the if25a nowadays it seems. I got 4000k because all of my other lights are fenix and just way too stark white.
Can't believe the IF25 was discontinued 😞
So the IF25a doesn't ramp colors you are stuck with either 4000 or 6500k correct?
Yes.
you can mix and match a bit i guess
@@jorayray647 yes
I like your reviews and I've had a few torches from here including this one which I've just bought, but how about some where you don't have to wait over a month to arrive and their not from China, cheers.
☄☄5:05 So that's your smackhead neighborhood whom can be seen strolling out to the bins for some munchies ayyy! 😅🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Wakes me up nearly every night 😔
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV 😅🤣🤣Stay safe & take care✌!
Hey man I have a 40t in this light st the moment and I noticed in your review it said that a different cell would work better for lower tints like 2700k can you expand a bit more pls?
Another question is I'm thinking of getting a 2700/4000k sst20 mix from hank on a d4v2 which would take it to 3350k, does the if25 get to this level or does it go through different ramps like 2700 then 4000 and then 5000 etc
Yeah it is a variable tint so 2700K= 2701K-2702k etc. I read the high cri SST20 don't like over 20Amps
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV oh ok thanks for the info!
Hello is 4000k if25a is better than 6000k but the lumen of 4000k is less right?
Yes
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV uhmmm whats is much better if25a 4000k or sp33 v3?
@@darylalonzo1588 I'm not familiar with SP33
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV i see... I dont know what is much better if25a 6500k or 4000k can you suggest to me what tint would tou like?
@@darylalonzo1588 buy the IF25!!
saw the zombie at the beginning hahahahaahahhaa
Smackhead neighbour heading towards the bins for munchies...
Hello this if25a is much brighter than your video? I mean in real world 😅
IF25A doesn't have variable tint!!
common mistake, the if25 and the if25 are not the same. The if25 has tintramping and gives off 2500lumens whilst the if25a only has one tint and gives off 3800lumens.
It's a shame that the 6500K LED is only 70CRI. They should have used 5000K 90CRI LED.
Not going to buy this light for this reason.
Meh..ur missing out.
Magnetic tail cap?
Nope but it is recessed so you could superglue one in
Thanks! But your neighbours must really dislike you..
It just occured to me something about warm lights in the 3 to 4k region and why I don't like using them and why they could be considered dangerous
Warm light emulates a sunset
White or cool white emulates day time
We instantly know at night if we see candle light or day light it's danger, and someone is near
But with warm light, we see that all the time as it goes dark it's sunset color, so unless it's literally after midnight, anytime near sunset or just after, your brain might be tricked into believing it's not an intruder and just sunset as you walk past the window
It's very stealthy ...
5:06 what was that? You live in a horror game simulation?
Laugh - So it seems like in the flashlight market, you either get the color temp you want, but it's impossible to get one that has a zoomable feature. I'm at the point to where I may just find a zoomlight of decent quality, rip the led out and replace with a cree led in the 3500k range because manufacturers are so hooked on LUMENS instead of proper color temp right now.
For zoom lights they usually go for the smallest LED's with the most brightness like Osram, which are known for their funny colour. But they have the best beam characteristics because of that tiny footprint.
