I didn’t have a right-angle torch, so I ordered a Sofirn HS10 2700K. I like it very much. Will put this in my EDC rotation.

BTW, won’t the tail magnet mess up my debit / credit cards if I keep them in the same pocket?

    HS10 is a great light!

    Do magnetic stripes on credit cards still get accepted? I’m only able to use the chip or NFC these days.

      The mag stripe should only be accepted if the terminal doesn’t support chip or if the chip read fails a few times. I still come across stores without chip readers every so often.

    These make great night lights in 2700k (the moonlight mode is acceptably low).

    Watch out for standby drain which can bring the battery to below standard voltage such that the hs10 won’t charge it. Loosening the tail cap is a good idea for medium-term storage.
