Wich of this flashlight to choose? Eastward j01, Eastward j06, KD C8 CREE XML T6 1000 Lumen or UltraFire C8 XM-L T6 3-Mode LED

I vote for the eastward j06

Thanks for responses.

The eastward j06 likes me at the moment but the Kaidoman C8 1000 lumens has a very well review here and it's more cheap.

The new question is now: Eastward J06 or Kaidoman C8 1000 lumens?

Forgot to say welcome to BLF xatu. Have fun here.

Given the 30% price difference, I'd probably go for the C8. I don't have it but the J06 (Which is very nice) is nearly 30% more. Both are good lights but it is a very personal decision as to whether the J06 is worth that much more. For me it is, for others it might not be. I'll try to do a full review of the J06 tonight which may help.

Thank you very much for your welcome Don.

Yes, it's 30% price difference but that is about 5€, it doesn't matter, little money, it is only that i want choose the best. I have seen your Google Docs and the J06's power output is very good (although it could be better if it could drain more amps from battery). I like its design too.

I think that i will order the J06.

Bienvenido, xatu ;)

I have testet a KD C8 XM-L & a Manafont Ultrafire C8 XM-L, i don´t own a Eastward XM-L.

The KD C8 XM-L drives at ~3900mA.

The Manafont Ultrafire C8 drives only at 1400mA.

Best flashlight of this 2 are both LOL ....Manafont C8 XM-L + the driver from the KD C8 XM-L.

Because the manafont C8 has a SMO reflector and although a nice beam. I have put the SMO reflector in the KD C8, but the beam is not as good as in the manafont c8.

Then i put the driver from the KD c8 in the manafont C8 and....WOW, that´s bright!

But i think, the Eastward YJ J06 has a very nice beam. ;)

Gracias por la bienvenida SashiX.

Yes, more flashlights xm-l and cheaper than Eastward j01 and j06. Too much flashlights!!! haha.

I have a question, who will be floodier Eastward j01 or j06? and thrower?.

Just checked again with a new decent cell (Well, it has maybe four cycles on it) and get 2.35A on high, 1.1A or so on medium.

Is it a good power for a xm-l this 2.35A?. I think the KD C8 gives more than 3A.

Don, if you recommend me the J06 with 2.35A i order today...

this means, that the KD C8 XM-L is the brightest flashlight in original condition.

but if you can chanche the driver, maybe other flashlight is brighter ;)

Oh God!. I don't know what can i do.

Eastward YJ J06 is pretty good and good looking for 32.70$ and the KD C8 seems good too and perhaps give more light on high mode and the price is 25.27$.

One of them must be the choosen, but i doubt even. Anybody have both to compare?

when you don´t chanche driver, i think, the KD C8 would be the best.

another interest.....for C8, there are more DIY parts as for other flashlights. (reflector, pill)

Those last two look like a Palight (XP-G) I have ordered.

Foy

It isn't my plan modify the flashlight. Both are good, but in the google doc file from Don appers the Eastward J06 and produce much lumens if i compare with most of the file. Sadly nobody have the KD C8 and Eastward J06 to compare.

I have the J06 and I have the KD C8 on order but I have not received it yet. I'll be glad to let you know what I think when it arrives if you want to wait.

Thanks jb1.

That could be cool but i can't wait, the orders come to me in two months from dealextreme for example. I need order soon.

Aloha and welcome to BLF xatu!

Buy both of them.

Thanks for welcome fishinfool.

I must choose one of them only. Both like me for now. KD C8 XML has very well opinions and same with the eastward j06...

Oh no!!!!. More xm-l from DX at cheap price and 1200 lumens!!!!
