The Osram C8+ V1 is the best when it comes to runtime, but its spot is quite small for closer range. The V2 has a wider spread and you can program the brightness levels 1 & 2, to any brightness which is a big plus. Sometimes preset levels of low and medium aren't ideal, so it's great to have control over that.
The V2 does not have a temp limit so it needs changing to a lower level once it's getting too hot to hold. The V1 doesn't either, but have an upgraded part for it which does, so let me know. I haven't officially announced this upgrade since I'm wanting to use up the parts I have on hand first.
As Joe has mentioned it probably would be a good idea to get a headlamp instead of trying to get a torch to fit into everything.
