Never seen those before so no idea, perhaps some cyclists will shed some...light ¬_¬

Depending on how it's driven, the XM-L will get up to 2 hours at max brightness, most likely closer to 1.5.
The XPE's are old and tiny, I imagine they will last a few hours but I have no idea how efficient they are!
Seems overkill to pair such old lights with an XM-L which is super bright in the first place though!
My C8 won't switch on again. I think it's a poor solder at the tail switch, though I couldn't get it to switch on with the paperclip trick (connect abttery neg to non-anodised part of case) last night either. So tonight I'll have a crack with some solder and if all else fails replace the dropin or tailswitch, depending on which has failed (multimeter time).
ThanksI guess the idea is to run the XPE lights if the road is already well lit and use the T6 on its own or combined on unlit roads. I heard that the inclusion of the XPE increases the width of the beam making which I thought would be a desirable thing. I've messaged a few people who have bought the lights asking how long their battery lasted when the lights were at full power.
Also am I right in saying that when the battery is depleting, the lights will dim or is that not the case?
I assume you’ve checked the voltage of your battery first? Could be the battery at fault as I found with my BC40!
^^ Track back in the thread, someone mentioned a bike light and it was a much simpler single light fixed on well, I used to have big old lights on mine and its a pain to manage especially if you are offroad
If it's running a decent controller then the light output should be constant until the battery reaches 2.75v at which point either the torch or the battery's protected circuit cuts power.
Yeah and I swapped batteries in case it was a protection thing. They were all at 4.10 - 4.15 V. I also have another C8 that's working fine with the same battery.
How bright is 3W?
Few more pics and a little video I made and put on youtube, Best to watch it on youtube in HD![]()
