Re: The Tactical Flashlight

I have four Surefire 6P's, and they're all good lights. I bought an eGear Xr130 from Brigade Quartermaster for $30.00. It has an LED lens and is brighter than any of my Surefires. A big selling point of the LED lights, the batteries last longer and the 123 batteries are expensive little buggers.

One thing to remember; if you have a Surefire stuck in your 5.11's or bdu's while grabbing a seat in a helo, jeep or truck you may end up branding yourself. Guys think its funny when they see a buddy's light glowing inside his pants pocket. The 6P especially heats up really fast. Best to back off on the end cap a turn or two before loading into a vehicle.
