Just an update, when I started this thread I emailed KD about a 1-mode C8 with XPL-HI, they replied a few days ago that they now have one available:

I assume it’s the same driver as the others but with the bridges pre-soldered at the factory.
That would be ideal IMO.
I have a convoy c8 with a dedomed XML u4, which will be doing approx 60kcd throw. Its a great wee light for close/medium range, happily shooting rabbits at 100m and full view of behind the animal for a safe firing zone. Cost $30 incl mods by someone else. I have got on order a maxtoch 2x, 360kcd so 1200m ‘range’ and looking forward to getting that out. These are $95
Bumping this. I can’t believe there are no surefire gun light knock offs yet
Of course there is….https://www.aliexpress.com/category/200003561/weapon-lights.html
You have to look, there are some 961/962 knock offs that are really close to the originals!
Biscotti on mode group 12 does exactly this. Felt it was worth mentioning.
Yeah but Aretha any good? I trust convoy but a lot of these other brands … who knows.
