Romisen RC-T601 vs. XinTD C8

Does anyone have comparison beamshots of these 2 lights? The previous version of the RC-T601 is fine. I know they both get 2 thumbs up from most everyone here.

Good question. I was wondering the same thing myself.

XIN has a choice of 3 or 5 modes, I thing the Romy only has 2 modes.

Check out those lights but I would suggest a Crelant V9-T6 over them. Much better cosmetic quality and beam quality!

I have the 700 2 mode version and it is powerful. Throws further than my TK35! I just ordered the XML U2 VERSION with over 750 lumens and I cant wait to test it against my TK41. I believe it is one of the best lights out there in terms of throw and brightness. Better also than my Keygos KE5 and UF 980L.

Does anyone have a link for the 700 for the XML U2 version?

I was torn between these and a few others, the Romisen is almost certainly brighter with reported draw currents over 3amps but otherwise the XinTD has it easily beat. Better tint, almost invisible PWM, better range of output, better runtime, better heat management I'd guess.... Prob more! Does the Rom tail stand?

Do you mean the 750+ 2-mode version? It is at http://www.shiningbeam.com/servlet/the-113/***NEW***-Romisen-RC-dsh-T601-II/Detail. The older 700+ 2-mode version is already sold out at Shiningbeam.

Hi Gear...yes, that's what I meant. Thank you.

does the romison have a forward or reverse clickie?

Reverse clicky

SHININGBEAM.COM HAS IT.

I don't have any U2 XM-L's yet. For that price I would have grabbed that Romisen, but I was hoping it would have been available in a NW tint. I'll keep it on the list for now.

I've ordered the new Romisen model from Shiningbeam (already shipped!). The only cells I have are 18650 TF Protected 2400, which I've had for a couple of years and I'm fairly sure they aren't fakes. Is it worth going for a different cell - lots of good reviews on here for Panasonic and XTAR - recommendations welcomed.

So which of these is the better bird? I'm considering both.

I just ordered the XinTD... mainly because I hate the cigar grip rings on the Romisen and I want a NW emitter without strobes, high PWM and 3 modes.

And how do these stack up against the c108 Fandy from DX?

Sorry to bother, Jeansy, but which one has better tint, invisible PWM... Xin or Romi?

Just got the Romisen RC-T602, definitely the brightest light I have. Makes my Klarus XT11 look like it’s run on AA. Mine has five modes and rated at 1000 lumens. Still runs on one 18650.

Wow, but how does it throw? And is the beam profile significantly different than standard C8s? Do you have the T601? How does it fair against that? Also, what about the 980L, Trustfire X8, or TK35? I'm told the T601 can smoke them.
