          eBay etc has a selection of generics. I haven't tested personally but Olight have them. Given they're a torch brand I'd trust their batteries are suitable.

          For 21700 and 18650 sizes,you can get genuine branded(Panasonic,Samsung etc) batteries from australian suppliers.

          But for 14500 button top size,I have found only Soshine batteries from Ali Express for a reasonable price.Flashlight branded 14500 are more expensive than Samsung/Panasonic 18650/21700 LOL

          For 18350 its even more difficult and you need to pay a lot for a decent one.So I steer clear of 18350

          So stick to 18650/21700 and flattop if possible for the best quality and prices.

      I wasn't sure what was going to be more popular. Opted for the newer version (this) as it's a tad warmer and cheaper

        The one you posted (519a) has better colour rendering. I have one, I love it, it's like daylight colours, not that washed out "flashlight" look.

        • Clear on 22/08/2025 - 07:41

          Thanks for confirming. Looks like I bought the right one then!

        I prefer the warm white 5000K compared to the brighter cool white 6000K . 6000K gives a more washout and overblown colour to objects while 5000K maintain a more natural colour like under the sunlight.

        However I have recently bought the Sofirm SC12 Mini, which also utilises my four spare 18350 batteries at home, no need to buy this one now.

            @tonydav: What codes aren't working? Is your AliExpress account new? If your account is new, AliExpress sitewide codes won't work because new accounts can get a "Welcome offer" that puts a massive discount on some products.

            • tonydav on 22/08/2025 - 08:34
              +3

              @Clear: No it's an old account.

              The first code gives this error:

              Unable to apply promo code. The total after discount (excl. shipping) doesn't meet the minimum purchase amount.

              The second 2 codes both work but they don't stack. So both $6.31 discount but only one works.

              • Clear on 22/08/2025 - 08:44

                @tonydav: Old account with no recent orders? What USD price do you get before discounts? On the product page? If it's less than US$15.45 it would be some kind of welcome offer.

      It takes a common li-ion battery size. Unscrew the bottom and replace it if you want. When they say rechargeable, they mean you can recharge the battery in it through the torch, rather than taking the battery out and using a battery charger (which you can also do).

      • PainToad on 22/08/2025 - 07:47

        Not sure I'd consider a 18350 battery common.

        I'd much rather one that just takes AAA batteries. Find out it's dead? Just chuck some batteries in it from your Amazon Basics battery stash and move on.

        • edfoo on 22/08/2025 - 08:33
          +1

          I do agree AAA and AA batteries more common and I prefer them too, though I do have 4 spare 18350 batteries sitting around at home, so a 18350 powered torchlight is useful in my case.

        • yoho on 22/08/2025 - 08:38
          +2

          I do find it annoying that there doesn't seem to be any more good quality torches that support the 14500 lithium and AA standard battery (they are the same size). It added some flexibility being able to grab some AA's in an emergency or backup.

          • edfoo on 22/08/2025 - 08:50

            @yoho: I have the Sofirn SP10 Pro which can use both 14500 and rechargeable NiHM AA (e.g. Eneloop) batteries, it's one of my most used torchlights.

            • yoho on 22/08/2025 - 12:24

              @edfoo: Looks like it is not longer available. I am a fan of Sofirn, the only failure I had was on a HS05 (also discontinued), which was 14500/AA headlamp torch (no new model unfortunately)

              @techno2000: Lumintop tool AA. Thanks, I forgot I had one of these and now recall it worked well. Found the box but the torch as disappeared. So it is going on my alerts.

        • Joost on 22/08/2025 - 09:19

          Common, for li-ion sizes. Easy to find a replacement if it dies, which is what you claimed to be concerned about.

          • PainToad on 22/08/2025 - 11:14

            @Joost: No. I'm concerned about having replacements on hand ready to go.

            Storm hits in summer. Power goes out. Go to use the torch sitting in the draw but the battery is depleted. What are you more likely to have lying around the house, some AAA batteries or some 18350?

            I know personally it would be AAA. But that's me.

            • techno2000 on 22/08/2025 - 11:28

              @PainToad: Nothing stopping you from having a bunch of 14500/18650/21700 as spares. And alkaline AA and AAA have very less energy.

                +1

                @techno2000: Buying extra batteries specifically for a $15 torch when I could just buy a torch that uses standard everyday batteries seems odd to me. But I'm getting voted down…so maybe I'm the odd one. But that's okay.

            • Joost on 22/08/2025 - 18:28

              @PainToad: This is a very small torch for carrying everyday (I literally do). I would not recommend it as a "leave in the draw" type torch.

      FWIW I’ve had a couple of Sofirn torches (bit bigger than this OP torch) for a few years now, with very occasional use. I’ve only charged them a handful of times, the standby life is great on mine despite the always-on green LED in the power button.

      • TedJ on 22/08/2025 - 11:36

        I keep one in my bag for emergencies, and recommend physically locking the light by unscrewing the head a quarter turn. Stops any parasitic drain from the e-switch.

Tax $1.25. Ie if you’ve no credit it should be $2.23+$0.98=$3.21. Seems a decent price. Oh, and don’t forget TCB 15% cashback as well.

    If you’ve got coins, but you’re only getting ~2% off for this torch, you’re doing it wrong.

    Go to the coins section of the app
    Search the for sofirn sc13
    You should get a couple of options with a coin discount of 42%
    Select the 519A (or the other option if you prefer sst40)
    Below the price, click on the pink coupon bar, then
    - Ensure you’ve collected the US$3 off $15 coupon
    - Ensure you’ve collected the US$4 off $15 store coupon (519A), or US$2 off $10 (sst40)
    Click on Buy Now
    Price for 519A should be US$3.21 (or less if you’ve got shopping credit), or US$5.70 for sst40

      Doesn't work for me.. The biggest discount with coins I get on this torch is 3%. Or 4-6% on more expensive models. I scrolled the entire list to the end.

      You need to change your payment currency from AUD to USD. Then apply the code AUWS05 on the checkout page. The price goes down to $9-ish USD then converts back to $15-ish AUD on payment. You can maximise this by using an international fee free payment method.

      • bananabendera on 23/08/2025 - 09:54

        You're right. Didn't realise that my app had reverted to AUD instead of USD. Working now
