    I got the SF26 because I prefer the treaded USB protection and I got it on sale for $35 or so. Thanks for the review.

      I really like the dual tail switches and someone states that theirs had instant turbo, but that wasn’t the case with mine. Both are solid choices, especially the buck driver on the td01c, but mine also has a bad tail switch. I ended up putting a 3000k sft40 in my sf26 and it’s now my go to. Td01 sits on a shelf lol

    Exactly what we needed to know. Great job brother. My SF26 should be here in a few days.

    According to Sofirn you can access turbo with a double press of the mode button from off.

      Maybe they implemented that with the new ones. I’ll try it on mine, but I don’t think that’s the case

    Yeah, big disappointment turning mine on yesterday when I realized there's no instant turbo, it's a tac light with no turbo, as if strobe is more important.

      Can you at least set your momentary to turbo, so you can access when turning on, or only available with two clicks?

      No, they’re somewhat similar just doesn’t have a tail switch. I’d recommend the wurkkos td03. That’s my new favorite light and has more functionality than the if22a. Or if you want a big thrower, buy the Convoy L21b or wurkkos ts30s pro
