[Review] Convoy M21C

Does this have the programmable driver like the C8+?

Only 4 modes

How long does it take for mode memory to catch?

The Convoy 4-mode driver uses off-time memory (as all lights should IMO) so you can flip to a mode, immediately turn the light off and it will be saved as long as you don’t turn it back on for a couple seconds.

That’s no good at all since you can’t use it tactically. That’s just a deactivated form of “long memory.” Down with “long memory.” Needs a separate mode switch.

Convoy was never a tactical brand, and it’s not about to start now. Get an Olight or whatever.

swap to convoy 3 mode ramping driver if you need tactical. It has no memory and you can program it to all high.
Plus the mode change is so tight it deliberately needs fast clicks to change mode.

I have my solarforce forward clicky to med>high>high and it’s been good for me

but of course if you are in tactical situation and you tap your lights for more than 5/9 times, you’re better off with reputable lights

You can order Biscotti driver now when ordering M21C.

Just leave Simon a msg.

Thanks.

Where would I go to do that?

order direct from aliexpress convoy store
buy without paying
message him changes
proceed to pay when simon say ok

Hello. Please tell me Convoy M21C, M26C have 2300lm at 100% mode in the description, why is it 1550lm in the photo 100%? Sir Simon Convoy usually provides true data. Sorry, I couldn’t understand the subtleties of the review correctly, or these are my difficulties with the translation.

I measured 1550lm at 10s of shining, max brightness could be 1700lm, I think.
Now Convoy launched M21C XHP70.2, so if you need more brightness, this is the way :slight_smile:

Mocarny, спасибо за ответ, я написал в Convoy, и я обязательно закажу другой фонарик M26C с XHP70.2, когда они сделают драйвер для 12 групп, у меня уже есть M26C sst40. Спасибо за ваш совет и ваш отзыв.

I think there will be no 12 groups for XHP70.2 though…

Fortunately you were wrong :slight_smile:

Is the xhp70 version an FET / direct drive turbo? Thank you

None of Convoy drivers are FET. All of them are Constant Current regulated.

Thank you for this info. I cringed as i wrote that question because i had a feeling it was not correct. more research to do. thanks again!

xhp70 is a 6volt led and m21c use only 1 li-oin battery so ime sure it use a boost driver
