Overview

The Sofirn SC28 brings tactical capability to the budget segment with a constant current driver, tactical tail switch, and 2800 lumens of output from a 21700 cell. The constant current driver is the standout feature — it maintains stable brightness without the PWM flicker that plagues cheaper lights.

At 223 meters of throw, it reaches far enough for outdoor patrol, property checks, and trail navigation. The 21700 battery delivers runtime that makes this a practical duty light, not just a spec-sheet showpiece. USB-C charging and IPX8 waterproofing round out the feature set.

For under $30, the SC28 offers tactical features and output that compete with lights costing twice as much. The constant current driver alone sets it apart from most budget tactical flashlights.
