Dive Lights / SD05
The Sofirn SD05 is a diving torch offered in this listing with an XHP50.2 LED description. Confirm the exact version and supplied battery before choosing it: current manufacturer pages describe different SD05 specifications. Compare the beam, controls and charging arrangement with the light you need for your planned diving.
Our TakeChoose by the confirmed version, usable beam and battery arrangement, rather than the headline brightness alone.

The selected listing names the SD05 and XHP50.2 emitter. Sofirn’s current US product page describes an XHP50B version with a rotary control, so its complete specification table should not automatically be applied to this offer. Ask the seller for a photograph of the box label and the matching instructions. Establish which battery, charger and spare seals are included in your selected option, especially when the same purchase page offers several bundles.
Think about whether you want a light for reading instruments, pointing out detail or illuminating a camera scene. Those tasks place different demands on the beam. Check how comfortably you can operate the actual torch with the gloves you use, and how it will be carried without dangling. Before a trip, familiarise yourself with its controls and the correct seal-care instructions. Plan lighting and backups with your instructor or operator for the dive you intend to make.
No. A shared SD05 name does not establish that every listing supplies the same emitter, battery bundle or electronics. The selected title says XHP50.2, while the current manufacturer page describes XHP50B. Match the delivered label and manual to the option you order before relying on a specification from another page.
Ask which cell and charger are supplied, then compare them with the instructions for that exact torch. Do not choose a replacement simply because it fits inside the tube. Confirm the approved charging arrangement and storage guidance, and inspect the battery and contacts as directed before taking the light on a trip.
Treat the advertised output as one part of the comparison. Ask about beam shape, available modes and the conditions behind runtime figures for the specific version. A bright initial output does not tell you how the beam behaves throughout a dive, or whether it suits your intended signalling or photography task.
Read the care guide, then follow the instructions for your exact equipment.
