The Sofirn SP60 is a powerful and versatile flashlight designed for both indoor and various outdoor activities such as camping, hiking, fishing, and hunting. It distinguishes itself as a robust thrower, offering a longer throw distance and higher output compared to models like the IF22A. Beyond its primary function as an illumination tool, the SP60 also doubles as a power bank, allowing users to charge other digital devices on the go. This dual functionality makes it a reliable companion for a wide range of situations, ensuring both light and power are readily available.
The Sofirn SP60 operates with a powerful LED that boasts an impressive lifespan of 50,000 hours, ensuring long-term reliability. It is powered by two 21700 rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, which contribute to its super bright output of up to 6800 lumens. The flashlight supports multiple charging protocols, including 5V/3A, 9V/2A, and 12V/1.5A for fast charging, as well as standard 5V/2A charging. This flexibility allows users to quickly replenish the battery, making it ready for use in approximately 4 hours with a 5V/2A charger, or even faster at 2 hours with higher-wattage chargers.
The SP60 incorporates several safety and convenience features. It includes reverse polarity protection to prevent damage from improper battery installation. A low voltage warning system alerts users when the battery voltage drops below 5.8V, indicated by a flashing red LED, prompting a recharge or battery replacement. Furthermore, the flashlight features low voltage protection, which automatically turns off the device if the voltage becomes too low, safeguarding the batteries. Advanced Temperature Regulation (ATR) technology is also integrated, which automatically adjusts the output to prevent overheating during prolonged use in high-powered modes, ensuring both user safety and device longevity.
The Sofirn SP60 offers intuitive operation with both stepped ramping and smooth ramping modes, providing flexibility in brightness control.
Before initial use, users must unscrew the tail cap and remove an insulating sticker. When replacing batteries, it's crucial to ensure the positive end of the new battery faces the flashlight's head. The flashlight includes a battery level indicator that displays the power status for 5 seconds after activation. A green light signifies good remaining battery power, red indicates poor power, and a flashing red light signals critical power (below 30%), urging immediate replacement or recharge. When functioning as a portable charger, no LED indicator lights up during the charging of digital devices, but a flashing red LED still indicates a low battery level for the flashlight itself.
The SP60 features a USB Type-C charging port. While charging, the side switch indicator flashes red and turns green once fully charged. Charging the flashlight disables lock mode, allowing access only to moonlight and low brightness settings.
While the flashlight is on, four fast clicks switch between stepped and smooth ramping, with the emitter blinking twice to confirm the change.
The SP60 is a powerful device and should never be pointed directly at people, animals, or moving vehicles, as this could cause retinal damage. Children should not be allowed to play with it. Strobe mode may trigger seizures in individuals with photosensitive epilepsy. Prolonged use in high-powered modes will cause the flashlight to heat up, which is normal due to the ATR technology. Proper battery installation is critical, ensuring the positive end faces the flashlight's head. To prevent accidental activation during transport or standby battery drain, the tailcap should be unscrewed half a turn or the battery removed. The flashlight should also be protected from impacts and drops.
Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of the Sofirn SP60.
