ITP C8R (or any ITP Light) from Shining Beam??

[MikieHead]

Does anyone have any actuall experience with the C8R or any ITP lights???

I have been 'abscent' lately from CPF and had not heard of this brand. It is more expensive then some of the Deal Extreme or KaiDomain lights I have been researching.

Does the Variable Power UI work well and is it reliable??
Is the quality of these lights good??

Thanks for any Opinions / Info!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have been using the C9 for a couple months now. I really like it and it performs flawlessly.

My only complaint is that I dislike the strobe/sos feature and would like it better in their tactical line.

The F/F is great and the variable brightness works excellent.

also, ITP just lowered their prices a little.

i have a itp C10T without the strobe realy bright with stock reflector and takes multiple cell configuration up to 8.4v
i swapped the stock reflector to McR17mm and the beam is SUPERB.
and the variable brightness is really easy to get to.

I have a C9R and a C7T. They both work great and overall the quality of the lights is good. I am also not a fan of the strobe and beacon on the regular lights and prefer the tactical versions.

I've got the C6 and it's a nice thrower with a unique reflector design. Everything works fine and the UI is excellent. I think CPF member selfbuilt has included one is his reviews in the review section here.
