Reddit take

Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • The c8+ is generally more performant than any 18650 Sofirn throwers and you can get it on Amazon in a few days under $30
  • The c8+ with a modern emitter is still absolutely a valid choice.
  • I ended up with the C8 because the vestigial back seat in the LC seemed sort of pointless, the one I was looking at had the touch pad thing, and I didn’t like the transmission.
  • Put one in a C8+ though and the tint is nice at least.
  • Practicality is not a priority since it’s not a daily and manual is a must (otherwise I’d be first in line for a C8).

Cons

  • I have an S7 and C8+ both with SFT40’s.
  • I've kicked around a new C8 which is a little higher than that.
  • I have the C8+ and the E6 with the same led’s, and the beam from the E6 is much more usefull than the C8 with almost the same range.
  • Convoy m1 , m21b 8 amp driver, c8, m21a

I am actually carrying the c8+ with sft40 and 18350 cause I don’t really need too much run time (which is actually the only one with an original Thyrm)

Has built-in charging which others do not (Convoy M1, which would also be great, or the C8+).
