The KD C8 is not a well-optimized use of the XP-L HI. The same ugly yellow center can be seen, and while the throw is great, the beam looks messy to me. Looks like a poorly de-domed XM-L T6.
The only good use of XP-L HI is in the KD P60 drop-ins. No ugly yellow center and great throw.
Rusty are you referring to the newly released KDLIGHT C8 or the earlier versions? The Cool White version I have of the new model has a nice clean beam pattern.
I am referring to the newly released lights. I gave them away to friends. They are functional and bright, but they suck. I now hate XP-L HIs because of the coloration issues. They are really ugly.
Joe, were the ones you had Neutral or CW? Also how long ago did you order them?
I thought the newly release versions were just put on only about 1 week ago?

Good to hear this, thanks! I’m planning on getting some of these.
Anybody know if there is a way to change mode group on KDlight V3 driver without resoldering ie. with button clicks when the driver is inside the flashlight?
Or is it solder-and-forget and no way to change without jumper resoldering? I don’t suppose there’s dip switch out there small enough to fit?

The 5700K 9050 Nichia 219B is the first of this type that I have seen, very nice! Myself I like warmer tints but I know there are quite some people on BLF who like high Kelvin high CRI leds.
Some 92 CRI in warmer tints would sell like cake !
Hi khas,
I am sorry CREE XHP35 HI NW LED is still not in stock.
Best Regards

Just noticed these, great product to have! Now it would be good to start selling some of the most popular emitters already soldered to them
edit: just noticed that you already sell them mounted! I never saw them because I only search under “LED emitters” and not under LED stars
Is this data correct?
