I would like to know how it compairs to the KD version XM-L C8.

I really like the fact that the manafont version has a smooth reflector.

I have noticed a price drop on these since they were first introduced as well. I hope the quality hasn't suffered from the price reduction!!

I have both flashlights.

Kaidomain C8 XML produces - 2.6A at high.

Manafont C8 XML - 1.2A at high.

I like Manafont C8 more because it have better hotspot(not Orange Peel reflector) and 3 useful modes(high low strobe). KD C8 is brighter but running time on high is only 20minutes.

Only 20 min? I can run my XM-L's that pull 3.2A at start for 45min continuously. You better check your batteries.
