Perfect for its intended job!

This light works very for its intended purpose as a weapon light. It does have a short battery life but it is not meant to be used consistently for long periods of time so I am ok with sacrificing battery life for lumens. I was able to easily see into the dark about 30 yards off my balcony (possibly more if not for the wood line) and in a house it is extremely effective in lighting up a normal sized room. The simple up down switch is very intuitive and installation and battery replacement are super simple. I have not had a chance to put it completely though its paces yet but so far I am very happy with this light. I would not call it a really light light (haha) but it is not so heavy that it effects my ability to use it, only my ability to carry it daily. I don't really have a point of reference for comparing it to other dual CR123 weapon lights that it could be lighter or heavier than, but I use it as a bed stand light and if I chose to carry it mounted to a side arm every day for concealed carry I would need a wider belt and something to counter balance it, but that's just me. Others may have no issue with the added bulk and weight for every day carry. If you are looking for a good weapon mounted light that is easy to operate, install, switch between weapon platforms and provides a blinding amount of light I highly recommend the TLR-1 HL.Read full review
