Man the shipping delay from CN to USA is brutal! I had been anxiously awaiting this light to arrive, it's now the highest (advertised) lumen light I have. So far it does not disappoint, but will be heaps more fun at dark.
I was mostly surprised at the HEFT of it, not just physical size but this dude has some weight to it. Feels solid and well built. The ability to change the CCT of the side lamp is a neat option. The color modes are fun, but largely useless. Biggest complaint is that color mode can't be dimmed. The rotary switch is a fun fidget, but with the weight of this guy I'm not sure I'll be carrying it without it being almost or currently dark out.
Overall first impressions are very positive. Feels good in the hand and has an overall premium feel about it. The body has a slight rubberized feeling texture. Can't wait for the sun to go down and put it to work!

I relegated mine to a car flashlight simply because of the emergency beacon features.
It’s a fun flashlight, but isn’t that ergonomic or carryable, compared to my other Sofirns.
Dont flash the red/blue in the USA when on the road, or you could get a ticket for impersonating an officer. My sheriff buddy saw it and said “Hell no, dont ever flash that in public”
I really like both the IF23 pro and the IF24 pro. They both have good fully regulated drivers(boost on 23 pro and buck on 24 pro) and they both have really good side light arrays.
