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

We think alike here my friend. :wink: I recommended Simon take the new bezel style across the board for the same reason. Too many lookalike yet not necessarily equal C8 lights out there. Something to visually set Convoy apart is the way I want to go. We shall see…

92

Well if you go for a “L style” light that is compatible with all inner parts and accessories of the C8 Simon would get a C8 sized, same output light of course.
But in case of a smaller L light, please use this C8 bezel and update the L2 and L6 so they lose the ring of bulges on the top for those take away a lot of the visual appeal of them, add weight and machining for no clear advantage.
It would make the L series more classy and appealing to more IMHO.

93

Your opinion is noted but there is no plan to change the L2 and L6 design. I also wholeheartedly disagree with your opinion. :stuck_out_tongue:
Personally I like the looks of the L2 and L6 a lot. I consider them among the most visually appealing in my collection.

The new bezel does look sweet on the C8 though! :money_mouth_face:

Coming very soon to a Convoy store near you.

The price is being kept below $6 and if that’s not sweet enough, Simon will give his BLF friends the standard 15% discount for those who ask.

Cheers

Near me? I kinda doubt it :wink:

95

:slight_smile: and that is why the Dutch have a saying “there is no arguing over taste”
Wholeheartedly agree how nice the new bezel looks on the C8
And as promised I will get one for the clear ano C8 for it deserves it.
(gonna glue a magnet ring in the tail for some moah bling while at it :slight_smile: )

96

That is seriously good lookin’ !!

97

touché mijn vriend! :wink:

98

Great news! It looks really sharp - and very sharp too.
It’s been a while since this idea was put forth. Another great product of BLF dynamics. :beer: (where is the glass of wine icon?)
Going to check Simon’s store rightaway…

+1 to that…… :+1: … “To me”, both the L2 & L6 just look like what a light of that size should look like…… “pretty much prefection”. :wink:
IMO of course…… :slight_smile:

Well L6/L2 design is more of an Original Unique design, more so than a ripped off copy of the Jaxman X6 Hunter with a E-switch! :person_facepalming:

101

Can’t really argue with that………. :smiley: … :person_facepalming:
The X6 is in that same category also. It just looks right to me……… :+1: … :wink:

102

The Eagle Eye X6? Yes I like that design a lot.
And the Jax hunter too. If I see a good WTS deal on it I’ll probably scoop it up :wink:

103

Please forgive me if this has been asked before but do the old and new C8 bezels swap? I have one with the removable pill which legoes the tubes with an equally old M1, the only difference being the M1 tube has a brass insert where the C8 tube was reamed to fit past the aluminum driver retaining cap.

104

Love the way it looks on the black C8, not so much on the clear one

105

Just checked, and yes, they are interchangeable.
Actually looks quite nice with the not so matte older bezel on the matte newer C8 :slight_smile:

106

Is this SS bezel available now ? I could not find it in Simon’s Store.

107

I don’t think so. I’ve been watching Simon’s shop like a hawk. Stainless steel will be an excellent addition to the C8.

108

Thanks for checking Jerommel.

109

Thanks for the update. I’ll keep watching :slight_smile:

J-Dub74 can Simon build a C8 tailcap with the switch in a raised position?
This will mean that lanyard hole will be no longer in place and flashlight no longer tailstands.

It would be great if it could be build with ss.
Let’s Lego C8!
