In an effort to further minimize my EDC I have begun to carry a new light. Regular handheld lights can be difficult to conceal and carry a weight that could be better used in a different capacity like an extra magazine or a fixed blade knife. Consequently, I have found a pretty good trade off […]
I recently decided to upgrade from the Olight M18 Striker flashlight to something newer in the Olight lineup. I’ve carried the M18 Striker for quite some time and it never disappointed. For more on the M18, check out my review HERE. The M18 Striker is no longer available (The M1X is the replacement), so I decided […]
Because there is no such thing as having too many backup options on the street, ASP has introduced its first triple-fuel flashlights; the Sentinel e3 and Sentinel X e3. These lights ship with a 16340 lithium-ion battery that recharges inside the light, providing a potent 400 lumens of output. If you don’t have the time […]
Streamlight’s new ProTac 90 is a 300 lumen, right angle tactical light with multi-fuel technology. The big news here is that you can use CR123 Lithium batteries for performance or AA Lithium or AA Alkaline when the availability of cost is an issue. Perfect for a firefighter’s turnouts or a soccer mom’s bug out bag, […]

I won’t bore you with all the technical mumbo-jumbo, for I am not a professional flashlight reviewer. There are already many […]
In many lines of work, a small portable pocket flashlight with a couple of hundred lumens worth of capability is just fine, other times you need to be able to light up a large area quickly. The problem is finding a medium size flashlight that isn’t heavy and cumbersome but still has a capable lens […]
The E2D Defender has been upgraded to a 1000-lumens featuring dual-output capability and self-defense enhancements. Utilizing a virtually indestructible, high-performance LED and a Total Internal Reflection (TIR) lens, the E2D Defender is activated with a push button tailcap click switch: press or click once for a high-intensity 1,000-lumen white-light output or press or click again […]
“Uh-Oh, your lights have gone out”, says the instructor. While clearing an objective during SWAT training the instructor’s decided that my team’s weapon mounted lights had run out of battery. How convenient. I recently received the Tungsten DF Light and had it on my kit for such a “surprise”, so out it came. The emphasis […]
