Hi guys, I need some help from you.
I have a convoy C8 with XM-L2 T6 led. Since I need a similar flashlight with much more throw I'm considering to buy the "new" C8 (claiming a new firmware and fasting cooling) with XPL HI CREE LED.
I read that lumens are lower compared to XM-L2 T6 but the domeless led should guarantee much more throw.
The seller on AliExpress, Simon, seems to be very professional and suggested to me the V2 1A version (6500-7000k).
I also read that domeless LEDs like XPL HI are so powerful in throw that could be a smart idea choosing warm tint. I'll quote here what I read:
What do you think about? Anyone have these flashlights and can help me with my choice? Any suggestions highly appreciated as always
Tks a lot guys

"In addition to what others have mentioned about the XP-L HI trading total output for focus, thereby increasing throw, I think it's important to point out that cool white scatters more in any haze, dust or fog that might be in the air. With a light that reaches out to 500m FL1 throw or more, you'll find some even when you thought there was none. The result is that a warm white tint lets you see solid objects better at a distance regardless of actual output."
