@madman4049- They do have click on, and pressure switches that mount on your gun as well, i use this as a training light and a camping/EDC light. (one inch scope rings worked well to mount it) Absolutely great review and such a great flashlight- Thanks!

@jimmydeanbreakfastsg Thank you for the kind comment. I now carry an E2D-LED and the G2 has been placed in the daypack as a last ditch light.

When people say "I trust my life with a Surefire light" you know S.F.'s marketing is working....

I would way more trust a TK10 etc. because of the solid, waterproof, proven build (with actual glass lens lolz), but people seem to love marketing.

Don't take me wrong--- this is not about saying surefire lights are bad-- they are great lights. I just think the days of saying they are more dependable than another brand are over. For the price of a surefire imo you can get more these days.

@martinaee Meh I have to disagree. In my work we use Surefire and Fenix, I have not used the TK10's but I have seen many TK40's crap out with the switch, led module, and mostly that poorly made battery tray. I can honestly say I have never seen a Surefire go down. Cracked glass yup, switch worn yup but never failure. I have been carrying Surefire for 7 years and my first one of 7 years still works like new. Can't say that about any Fenix I have seen And my E2D-LED does have glass lens.

Awesome flashlight review bro. I like the shirt by the way.

[madman4049]

Thank you. That is/was one of my favorite shirts. Got destroyed working on the truck. I will be doing a review on the E2D-LED in the near future when I have the time. Thanks for the comment

@aendzo Yes I guess so. I busted two P60 surefire bulbs already with 2x3.3V fully charged CR123A, you may want to discharge the battery to 3.0V each then it will be safe.

@madman4049 Defendaaaa

@madman4049 Meh... maybe it's statistics then. I have beaten the hell out of my LD20 (literally have dropped it on concrete at least 5 times) and it still works and practically looks like new.

I'm not saying Fenix or Surefire are bad ---- In fact both are amazing light companies, I just think Surefire has equal competitors these days. I really am interested in the 2aa Surefire light (forgot the name off-hand), but the price tag is twice that of an (in my opinion) equivalent fenix/4sevens.

Surefire lights ROCK!

@brib333 I serve and have been using TK11 for quite sometimes on my M4. Very good light, durable and I can trust on it too. Costed me 55 bucks with accessories through camp store. I also collect SureFire but their lumens are weaker and runtimes are short, so just keep them as collectible items. Good vid.
