Maybe it has dual modes now? Banggood description says “Stepless Dimming Mode” and
“Button Dimming Mode”
Any other can confirm that recent one can use Lii 50A ? If so I will pull the trigger.
Jump on green one if you want
it. Those will go first. Lots of guys wanting that color.
Lii 50A does not fit in original design (Oct '17). Micmania #123 did mention that current batch is able to fit wider 26650.
My green M8 arrived today, same as micmania, I hate cool white!
Has anyone reflashed these with narsil?
Edit to add, not sure if this has been mentioned, mine is USB-C.
hmm … 
mine has USB-C too … and of course I have to add that there was a light-blue sleeved USB-C cable in the box. and wtf … a spare lens was found :disappointed:
Yup, strange!
Just found out today that press and hold from off turns the light on in last mode memorised.
If it’s possible to reflash the driver, this will be the first I try. LED swap should be pretty straight forward.
Can any who owns Green Version give feedback on CW VS NW ? I am a CW guy due to brighter tint. But interested if NW is not yellowish or egg colored. I have the Green coming. Please advise.
CW vs NW tint comparison for M8 v2. Most likely BG only offer CW right now.
I received my green one a few days ago, and it certainly is not neutral white.
To my naked eye, it looks CW to me.
New M8 V2 comes with type-C port now. Does yours come with battery too?
Thanks freeme. I ordered the Green Version from BG the other day. Glad I got CW. I was considering NW to compare at later time.
Nice, Can not wait to get mine.
Huh? I hope it does come with battery. Do you know if it came with latest batch or Green Version? I ordered mine about 1-2 days ago.
I am not aware of the changes until recently. Have to check with their customer support. Ramping has been replaced by low, medium, high arrangement now.
No battery came with my green one that has USB-C connector, and came with a blue USB-C cable.
Anyone who got M8 would you check how many KCD it throw ?
Mine just shipped out BG. Do you know when these changes were made? I hope mine were from latest batch with updated UI, battery, USB , etc….
My green version arrived today. USB C charge port, blue USB C charge cord, no battery and it is CW with NO stepless ramping. Button is not great. There is a delay between depressing the button and the light activating. There was no instructions. Light wouldn’t work at first until I removed the big black washer around the spring in the head. My black version has USB micro port, no battery, great switch with stepless ramping. The NW on my black version is close to the BLF GT
I have made a request for neutral white option. Remember to subscribe this thread for updates.
