It seems to be $30.79 when I apply that code. Am I doing something wrong?

Some of the amazon reviews are ordinary. In built charging would be nice.
There was an issue with the first batch of SP10V3 drivers in late 2021 where they had parasitic drain and would kill the battery but this was quickly fixed:

Amazon Australia has the newer batch with the fix.
Agreed. Built-in charging or a slower charger would be nice.
The included Li-ion charger 5V 1A input, 4.2V 0.75A output charges the Sofirn 14500 900mAh Li-ion cell a little faster.
The cell manufacturer recommends 0.5C for Quick Charge, which is about 450mA. I've seen the charger do 700mA to gradually drop off to 300mA, 60mA etc as the cell nears 4.20V. It's a bit fast for my liking.
Damn, another flashlight. I'm a sucker for any torch with a beacon mode. Paid $30 for a silly looking Nitecore LA10 just for the beacon.. 🤣
Thanks poster, will hopefully fit well as pictured on front strap molle as a beacon ponted down while riding at night!
Hey OP, do you know if the QC issues have been fixed? Amazing value proposition at $22 is all is sorted.
Yes, Sofirn informs me that the batch at Amazon Australia is the newest with the fix.
Is it bright at night say for hiking or camping?
It is bright enough for camping. You might want a slightly larger torch for hiking at night - Sofirn SP36? Get a diffuser with the SP36 or an LT1 lantern for extra camping light.
SP10 is AA / 14500 LiIo. 14500 is brighter, I prefer AA NiMh standard rechargeable batteries in my SP10s when kids are using them.
My daughter just did a 2 week trip through Northern Territory. She had extra lights for a friend ('cause I have lots of torches). Kids had a Manker E03 and Sofirn HS05 ie 90°C headband lights, very similar to SP10 in output. Worked great and one AA battery was enough for the whole trip - still going. YMMV.
I grabbed a SP36 Pro a couple months ago with this DIFFUSER. Works really well, smooth plastic on smooth metal but seems to fit just right. You can't smack it though or it'll pop off. Seen people put some tape on the inside if you want a really tight fit, although, wouldn't recommend it on turbo for too long or I assume it may melt the edges of the diffuser after a short while and glue itself on.. 😅
Side note, I REALLY want to grab a Manker MC13 whenever it goes on special.. 😅
Thank you for your pro tips
Thanks just picked 1 up.
Loving this torch!
Thanks!
Hi Op, I got 52.79 if purchased 2. Can you help? Thanks
Same so i just did 2 seperate transactions for the full discount
Did making two seperate orders work?
FYI: The SP10 Pro has just been released. It's like the SP10V3 but it has a different driver with Anduril 2 firmware. There's a discussion about the SP10 Pro development here: https://budgetlightforum.com/node/66910
Here's a review of the SP10V3:

The SP10V3 has a simpler user interface.
