I am running a Romisen RC-C8 II R2 Flood-to-Throw and a MG P-Rocket Cree XP-G R5 in combination. I am confused by your above statement. The RC-C8 is wonderful when adjust to full flood but of course this comes at the expense of throw. The design of flood to throw is such as to give you one or the other not both.
I am more impressed with the Romisen than I am the MG-P in terms of bike riding performance. The Romisen is much better at being a nice flood with some throw than the MG P rocket (OP reflector) is at being a strong thrower with some flood.
I am considering buying another RC-C8 to add to the lineup. The flood on that thing is killer and coupled with an even marginal thrower it gives a nice riding setup.
