No one paid me to post this. I own this light and stand by it. And this is the lowest price I've ever seen it offered for.

Agreed. I love the SFT25 in a short reflector. You get a nice hot spot, but with an unusually wide spill radius. Great EDC light.

Wish they and Wurkkos would put some sense into their naming conventions.

How does this compare to the SC33, besides a smaller battery and a different emitter?

Agree on the naming.
Good question - very different lights:
1) The SC33 is a flooder (XHP70.3 LED) with a tail switch and 21700 battery. It's a wall of light, but doesn't have a lot of range.
2) The SR15 is a thrower (SFT25 LED) with a side switch and an 18650 battery. It has a tight hot spot and can throw a few football fields.
Still haven't figured out how to upload pics to comments, so here's an offsite image I just took of both lights: https://imgur.com/a/j4IbMBM
And here's a decent review from a well-known flashlight expert: https://youtu.be/DHChPbvwswk?si=UgxvkHt5NxpEPgkC

I would not consider the SC33 to be a flooder... although, for better or worse, the SR12 looks to be a very tight spot light. I guess there is a gradual change from flood to spot, and I compare the SC33 to some of my much floodier torches.
Just wondering what the SR12 has over the SC33 that would warrant double the (original, suggested) price. I guess good to blind a faraway enemy, but other than that, I think a slightly wider angle of light may be more useful. And the claimed lumens (1450 vs 5200) speak for themselves.

The SR12 is kind of an all-purpose pocket light. It's an 18650, but one of the smallest on the market. (So it's not really fair to compare it with SC33, which doesn't fit in a pocket.) For $22 it's a steal. I paid $35ish for mine a few months ago.
But if you're just doing neighborhood dog walks and the like, agreed - the high-lumen SC33 would be preferable. If you need to see further down the road, the high-candela SR12 provides more throw.

Ignore him he is joke and troller that spams and craps on good deal for fun. He has a deal alert set for something he does not want and tries to jump in early and sour deals. He accuses everybody of being a bot or shill.

Look at this crap he tried to foist on the community

A post purely shilling for Bezos to spy on you with 25 negs and he is going to try to tell us your deal is the bad one and only he is a proper contributing member. He wants members to buy it at Amazon for $40. We have few to many truly pathetic members that really bring the site down.

Ignore the @holes and thanks for the deal!

FC11 has a usable light spread.
