Would you pay $4.50 for a stainless steel C8 bezel by Convoy?

I don’t have any C8’s, but I wouldn’t mind some SS bezel options on other models. A Smooth/flat SS bezel for the L2 and L6 would be killer, like the old Convoy L5 had.

That’s what we’re supposed to do in your threads, right Jdub? Take your question and just suggest more work for you and Simon?

Yea sure why not? The bezel on a C8 is on the bigger side. So i can see why it would cost a bit extra. Do you know what it looks like J-Dub is it an aggressive looking bezel because then i would buy more then one!

Well that does seem to be the trend… :stuck_out_tongue:

I’m talking to Simon about a lot of things of course but right now I just need to see if there is interest in this one for the C8 first. If there is, I’m going to see if we can offer a different style than the standard crenelated version.

The main hurdle right now is the fact that Simon told me the best he could do on a SS bezel is $6 shipped. I guess maybe I should have mentioned the “shipped” part. Then of course I need to clarify with Simon if that’s standard China shipping or ePacket.

If enough people are willing to pay $6 for a bezel I’m going to try to offer something unique if possible. Either just a simple smooth flat style or different more subtle crenelations. I can’t make any promises yet but that is what I would like to do if we can make this happen.

Crenellations like the ReyLight Brass AA would be nice. HERE is one of his pics…

Some sort of crenellation is good for using a C8 as a nightlight on low modes…

Would look awesome on a natural C8.

Not sure I would swap all of mine to them, but I am sure I would pick up one or 2.

For $6.00 a piece you can send me two too (I like the sound of that).

That’s actually very close to what I was picturing as far as the style of crenelation. :+1:

I voted for a Full Stainless Steel S2+ host :smiley:

And a C8 SS bezel or 2.

Yes for my grey C8 (oh well my sons actually)
And as I promised elsewhere I would buy a clear ano C8 with it! (Gonna pack it with gift wrapper and hand it to my kid to give me for Sinterklaas (non dutchies just google it :wink: )
So go Simon and J-Dub74!

Get us an attack bezel please They would sell heaps of people use C8 weapons mounted.

Mild crenelations or plain work for me. I paid a heck of a lot more than that for the smooth stainless bezels I have on my Mag lights.

I believe I once paid 6.99 for a tiny SF L2 SS bezel that didn’t even look great, so yeah the price is fair.

Not realy, it would debalance the light, especialy considering the C8 besel - may be a good idea if it was ways smaller

Ah Mitko my friend. Always such a ray of sunshine in this otherwise dark and dreary forum. :stuck_out_tongue:

If I get to design this one it will indeed be a bit smaller meaning that it will not extend as far beyond the lens and thus will have less reflection in the outer edges of the beam pattern than some of my other SS bezels. I don’t know yet if that will happen or not. We shall see…

No, black is the new silver.

Ofc if its a smaller and round flat it would be great, especialy if oxidised to match the body colour.

Come on, why sarcasm… you have to check for yourself my BG C8 hosts orders to see how big my love to that host/flashlight is :slight_smile:

Forget about the bezel, ask him where is he with that pressure remote switch that he is developing more than a year now!
:stuck_out_tongue:
P.S. I would probably get one SS beze just to check how it would look but that’s it…

I thought I already had something like that…

It’s not a Convoy, but it is a C8.
