ultra fire c8

hi all ,just a quick post to share my findings with this light
I only bought it as I was trying to find a light that I could use a
copper pill I had and a 18650 c8 ext tube I had bought…
‘’nothing fitted of course’’

I thought id bust it open the reflector is plastic, the led is not cree or lb and it came with a battery which tested at 528 mah

the pill is remove able 22 x 1.25 pitch,the other light for comparison is a convoy c8 host (top)…

thought id take a tailcap reading draws around 2a on high

thought id take a beamshot beside a x6 with xmlu3 1a @ 2.8 a, it is slightly tighter and bluer

anyway prob a ok light to throw in the toolbox or giveaway to a unsuspecting soul,

anyway I guess I got what I paid for,but its fine for a bashabout light

the pill


no thermal gunk fixed now

Did you hang an led+mcpcb on the wall? :stuck_out_tongue:

Was the pill hollow?

yes that was a u3 I killed ,I bought 5 of them and I killed 2 they wont cop over 3a, :laughing:

I was being tight and bought ally stars,

the pill seems to have a slot across for the wires and half a shelf very lite construction…

I wouldn’t recommend it for mods, the switch also looks rather cheap
