Just ask him. No point leaving a specific price number here in a thread people will be reading for years. Stuff changes over time.
And if you ask nicely and are buying other things, and it’s a convenient time, and the sun’s shining over there, your luck may vary.
Can we get a smiley emoticon made with his jaw hanging slack in amazement? (aimed at Boaz)
For us it’s a hobby but for him it’s a business. As such he has every right to charge what he wants and we have every right not to buy.
Speculating on what a fair mark-up is, whatever that means to each of us, is just that.
To avoid translation issues, please let me explain.
When someone puts their money into a business, it’s all about making money to support their family and themselves. Doing favors for the customer can be a good way to do business, of course, and isn’t that what Simon is already doing? Going far and away over the top to bring us clear anodizing, AR Coated lenses, clear button and/or a contrasting black button, and even being open to an updated/upgraded modern firmware, taking a chance on his very clientelle to make this happen? All these changes without a doubt run into expense to implement, on the speculation that it will become profitable for having taken the chance. Right? And still, his lights are bargain priced with high quality easily surpassing all but the most determined of the competition, again, right? Even while developing new models to further appease our hungry appetites? (stay tuned, he IS working on options, as JDub has clearly explained)
Pretty obvious he’s given us his ear, put his monies to work on our requests, and now once again it is our turn… make it pay.
FWIW, I feel no entitlement to compensation for making the new driver code. I’m merely happy to help someone I like, someone who has been consistently good to BLF.
And it was a fun project. I approach lights strictly as an enjoyable hobby, and don’t want it to become “work”.
Just putting that out there, in case it’s relevant.
… though I was admittedly a little grumpy about having to include SOS mode. Silly survivalists. 
You could have “spelled” it wrong.

Man I hope we can, or like one of these. It appears we need it. (aimed in the same direction)
I wish I had some of these for people at work 
Should the diagram say Enter the last used mode or something like that, instead of “Enter into next mode” after the flashlight is turned on?
Awesome! Does anyone know if the Olight WM10 mount offset is sufficient to clear the rail with the relatively large C8 head?
Btw, I would love to see a Chinese manufacturer make a minimalistic mount like this Gear Sector ($72.95):
Perhaps a more important question is why you would want a thrower mounted on a bike instead of a flooder. Maybe it’s mounted in addition to a flooder?
The Olight WM10 is an AR-15 rifle mount, not a bike mount
Love the new C8! will order it soon, sending big thanks to the users who made this a reality! cool product!
As I saw the components are the same as the old driver.
Is there any changes in schematics on PCB or it is absolutely same as old one.
Sorry about my novice question.
It will be nice, but do not belive it is possible. Even 90k is difficult with this reflector size.
Actually I have two moded flashlight with XP-G2 diode. Convoy C8 has 160k and Eagle Eye X6 has 110k candela.
Driver is absolutely same as old one except red color
New firmware works perfect on old drivers.
Driver 105D, 6 * 7135 (2.1 A) in Convoy S2+, XM L2 U2 1B with fresh battery:
Level——-Current
0.1% - - - 4 mA (0.24%)
1% - - - 33 mA (1.59%)
10% - - - 266 mA (12,85%)
35% - - - 911 mA (44.00%)
50% - - - 1005 mA (48.55%)
100% - - - 2070 mA (100%)
Level 35% is too high IMO.
Perhaps the 35 and 50 work out too close together on paper, but this is a good reason there isn’t a grouping that has 35 and 50 in it at the same time. 50% was a half power option for those wishing to have decent output with low heat and prolonged cell life. Tit for tat, as it were. 35% fills the bill in spacing where more modes are being used.
In the C8 where I added 5 chips to the driver, 35% yields 662 lumens where 50% yeilds 693 lumens. So the output is quite close, but the 35% is used as a half step between other modes in the groups it’s used in. The target was to be more pleasing to the eye in the size of the step. It is, after all, the end result that really matters regardless of the particular numbers used in getting there. 
I explored all available corners, no light there, got bored.
May I return to conversation now?
I want to ask something related to this constatation:
just one question, thats all.!!!
