Yes, 100% agree with you there.
I don't consider the C8 a direct rival to the Maxtochs (I have a couple of those too..), just filling a different role.
That said, inside 150 (or a bit further with the newer chips), the C8 has all the light you need and more.. Similar beam pattern to the maxtoch, nice and broad in the mid-ground but still with a very good spot. Still very impressive for the size.
The C8 is my favourite 'little' torch. Great wee walking-around torch, or when you don't really need to light up three ridges distant. Perfectly suited to use on a .22 or HMR.
