Noooo I always miss the really good codes!

:frowning: This one doesn’t work for me.

Tagged for coupon limit response too.

The code is working now.

Is US included this round?

No, just tried and still the same “coupon has reached its maximum limit” message.

I am in UY.

Nope. Still doesn't work in US.

26650 version?

No, only 18650 or 21700.

there are alternative for 26650 cell.?

Are you asking about a similar type of light that uses a 26650? I don’t know of any triple xpl reflector based lights other than the C8F.

yes,thanks

If you want 26650 size, a reflector type of beam pattern, and high output (over 2,000 lumen, you would need to look at the many xhp50.2 and xhp70.2 lights that use a boost driver. There are like 20 of them or more. They are getting popular. In my sig I talk about the ODF30 and SP33 (I really like the SP33).

If you don’t care about a reflector style beam pattern, you have a lot more choices with lights using a TIR lens. Some use boost drivers, some don’t. The many leds can be wired in different ways.

Is it adapter for 18650 battery included or not?

Strange, there was another post on the forum with an offer for this light (BLFGB1212) but it got removed. Same price as well.

Included. [quote=wellerus] Is it adapter for 18650 battery included or not? [/quote]

just received two units of this light

I only get 2200lm with both lights

I know there was a problem with the driver from the first c8f 21700 that didn’t reach the claimed lumens, and sofirn released a second version of the driver

Maybe this light is using the first underpowered driver?

I don’t think there was ever any problem with the driver. There might be a lack of current flow through the retaining ring. Maybe glue on the threads? Adjusting it gave me a boost in output. Also changing the led wires can give a boost.

It will not hit 3500lm stock. I think they over rated it. About 3,000lm stock seems right.

Being a FET driver, the output can vary a lot based on the battery. What battery are you using? How are you measuring the lumens?

Both Sofirn and GearBest have confirmed that Utorch C8F will not have previous Sofirn issue. My C8F from very first batch did produce 3300lm with my VT5A.
