This light is a piece of genius. It is easy to hold onto, light weight and tough, more bang for less bucks and worthe every penny. Check out the website for all the specs, it's worth the time.

Great little light - I have Two. Matter of fact our department just started giving these lights out to the rookies as standard issued equipment.

I have 10 of these and keep them in separate locations around the house, car, and one each in my two backpacks. You never know when you may need one!

These babies will definitely disorient someone's night vision for sure...good self defense tool!

I like but it could do with a longer battery life.

I agree with all that it's a great little light...I also have two. However, neither give any kind of warning that the battery is going dead. One second it's shining brightly...The next second it's completely dead! This could cause a serious problem if it's the only light you have during a threatening/unknown threat situation.

Love this light. I carry it in my purse in case I ever need it and it has never let me down. Very bright for such a little light and is also light weight to carry.

Love it, but I wish it last a little bit longer and that it gave some warning before it dies, but still a great light, I’m going to look into the new LED version that just came out.

This is the best flashlight being made in my opinion because it lasts forever and it is very tough!!!!

This is a fantastic compact tactical light. I usually carry it in the pocket of my vest. Very durable, grip design is comfortable. It is very easy to operate and the light beam is strong enought to temporarily disorient an opponent.

Great little light to have. The only problems is that the batteries used are the ones used to make meth with.

Great light. Wish batteries lasted longer

Best value of non-rechargeable flashlights.

I switched to the G2 from the rechargeable Stinger. Great backup light, as long as you have fresh batteries. Surefire sells them cheaper than anyone else. It's lightweight and powerful. A must buy for the price.

Great flashlight for the price. Nice and bright, but the dead-man switch could feel a little less "cheap." I use it as a back up light in my car since I don't have to worry about it getting beat up or corroding.

Great Light.

I was very sceptical about a light that used "high dollar" batteries at such a fast rate, but after my wife bought it for me I would not trade it for anything else. It is very bright, light weight, and can be kept anyplace. I cant wait to try the "G3", I've heard some good things about it.

Great flashlight . Everybody should have atleast one

Great light! Mine has definitely taken a lickin' and is still just as good as the day I bought it. It's even been used as a close quarters weapon when my baton was not available. All around great light to have!

Good light, great for a backup light. Battery life is an issue.

I have two of these and a Z6. There great. I have upgraded the bulb to the 120 lumens and there great When your out in the woods this is the light you want. I don't think Surefire makes a bad light. The G2 weren't bad but the older Z6 was costly and there the same thing just different body material.

This is a excellent compact flashlight that offers alot of power. I bought the G2 and it works great. Surefire offers alot of accessories and upgrades on a light that costs less then $40 dollar.

HANDS DOWN, THE GREATEST BACK UP LIGHT THAT I HAVE USED YET SLEEK DESIGN EASY TO GRIP . AND TAIL CAP BUTTON IS A PLUS !!

I love my G2. The only thing is sometimes tailcap switch will turn the light on and run down the battery.

You just can't go wrong with a Surefire in your pocket. Wide enough beam to quickly clear a room, powerful enough to illuminate a reflective sign 600 meters away, and more than bright enough to completely disorient and night-blind a suspect. Painfully bright to night-acclimated eyes. At 20 bucks (local price) I'd rate this one a MUST HAVE, in fact, planning to buy a couple more of them.

The G2 is one of the best small lights for the money. It works well for as small as the light is, and its a durable light that takes a lot of abuse. It fits well on the duty belt and is very light weight. You dont even know its there.

Poor battery life

I got one of these for X-mas and it has come in handy quite a few times from then... Although the battery life sucks, I am impressed with the light.I am planning to buy the LED upgrade which makes the light brighter while enlongating the battery life. So far, the best flashlight I ever owned.

Great flashlight. Love the brightness of beam. Compact. No problems thus far

I picked this up to carry for a spare. Very impressive little light for the price. Good construction, lightweight, and a bright pre-focused beam.

Great light for a spare. Sometimes has to fit in cases for thr Surfire 6P. Battery life is short as it is on the Surfire 6P. I got three for a great price when I was in the military from the PX and gave one to my parrents. They love it to walk the dog and find the lanyard handy for there use.

Most powerful mini light for the money on the market.

Small but tough. Does a great job.

Have been looking at many flashlights out there. Really prefer a focusable-beam led, but this is one of two or three I plan on carrying for normal everyday use.

I got one for me and one for my little brother at a gunshow for $30 each. It's bright, compact, and seems durable. It has since replaced my Dorcy (see my other rating) I'd take it anywhere I need light, but my biggest beef with it is the batteries it uses, they're bloody expensive! Another thing is the screw on sustained lighting, I expected it to have a conventional clicky button in back, but it seems like it's more simple and therefore less prone to failure.

Great for a back up light!!!!!!! If you use it as your primary light you better get a second job because the use up quick and aren't cheap.

This is a great light, I actually broke one by getting water inside of it and the batteries burst. I called up surefire and they sent someout out to pick it up. I got a brand new one. I recently switched to the LED version which is also great and lasts alot longer. Surefire has never let me down. Hands down best light I have ever owned.

This is a great lightweight light. I have it on my nylon belt with a hi-output bulb.

Good price and effective tool. I've used it in the millitary in Iraq and now carry it for duty use and it never has failed me.

I didn't see anyone post this but you can also purchase a double bright bulb for this. It will reduce the life of the batteries by half but you also get a light that approaches the output of an SL20. fyi

I just bought one, and for such a tiny light (fits snugly in the palm of my hand) it is one bright little sucker. I just did a foot patrol with it last night and it was so bright that it clearly illuminated an alleyway between apartment buildings from more than 7 feet away. WOW!!!! That's all I can say, and they also make a neat little holster that holds it firmly on your duty belt (various widths up to 6.5 inches, I think) in either the upright or head-down position. I prefer upright because it just sits lower and keeps me from bumping into it constantly, but it snaps right into the holster and you can even turn it on in the holster to illuminate paperwork. It's a versatile little sucker, and the Surefire company also sells the batteries for keeping it running. The batteries are like $19.95 for 12, just FYI.

Batteries run out too quick...

excellent flashlight, long lasting batteries

This is my backup backup light-- i keep it in my bag. Wear a Stinger on my belt as backup. Surefire builds a great product, and at a typical price of $34-35, u can't beat it. I also keep one on the headboard as a house light. I was going to mount one on my shotgun with the accessory curly cord tail switch, but the plastic light body is too thick to fit the mount-- get an aluminum 6P.

Very good light. I carry this light on my belt at all times.

i have had a few flashlights in my time ,but the sure fire is the best i have encountered yet. they are great for cell searches.

Yeah. The only thing out there that delivers that much light is the G2L, and I'd get that one if I didn't already have this one. This is really a great light.

Very Nice little light grate for tactial light

Great flashlight. Extremely bright and lasts for a while on (2) 123 batteries. The only problem is that there is no dying time. You will think you have a while left on the batteries when all of sudden your flash light just stops working. Which does suck when you are attempting to do SFST. However it is a great light to have on my belt for a backup when I need to get out of the car fast and forget my Mag in the car.

Standard surefire features. Twist constant on or push temporary. It is bright, compact, and I got mine for about $30.00.

Dynomite does come in small packages. No reason not to have one with you, fits any pocket.

Very good light. Compact, bright, and durable!

Lightweight an battery last a long time

Hi Operators and Officers,
I purchase this light by Surefire as a personal Defense component, to my amazement it was a asset to my Off Duty Protection. It is very Bright an give you that surprisingly blinding shock to give you the advantage momentary; it is very lightweight, so I don't even know I have it on. Combined with the Speed holster and Tactical rings it is unlimited to the Holding styles commonly used in the Forces. I will not buy another light that is substandard again! Remember you have only 1*or 2*!

Great little light, but the batteries are a bit expensive.

What they say about this product is really true. It does "Light up my life."

Great Light!

carry one at work. Great little light to stick in my pocket and have when my other light goes out.

Bright light, compact, and tough.... the downside, the light uses (2) 3 volt batteries, which last exaxtley 1 hour burn time. When they go dead, you don't get a dim light, you get light one time, and none the next. Not a bad back-up light, but I wouldn't recommend using it everyday....it would get expensive buying batteries that you can't re-charge

One of my backup lights, i was suprised at its Lumen output for its size. I hear good things about the LED one..
