SureFire G2X Series LED Flashlights with Tough Nitrolon Body

I bought a first-generation G2X tactical (200 lumen) right when they came out, and since then Ive held the belief that the SureFire single-output LED lights are the only way to go if you want a handheld light for serious use. I just received the G2ZX (320 lumen) which I think is the perfect balance of efficiency, regulated runtime, output, and cost. I also think the combatlight handhelds are the pinnacle of SureFires design. I am unaware of any other manufacturer that makes syringe-body single-output tactical lights. Luckily, SureFire nails it with this one. The LED is well centered, the reflector has a nice orange-peel and focus, and the original surefire U/I tailcap (push-for-momentary, twist-for-constant) is still perfect. The G2ZX definitely has less output than my P2ZX Fury, but it should get much better battery life. And since the emitter is smaller, it doesnt require such a huge reflector. I think this is the best no-BS tactical flashlight available, especially at the current price. It would be a close call with the P2ZX Fury, but good luck finding one of those!

Can’t think of anything I don’t like about this light. Without looking, I believe it’s 600 lumens, and the main thing/reason I bought it is for the single function tail cap switch. No multi-function high/low/strobe to fiddle with. And, it is Surefire quality. I do have a Brownell’s 500 or 600 lumens light with multi-function, recessed tail cap. But this light has a tail cap switch that is proud, making activation easier with a variety of shooting methods.

The most satisfying of torches.

I bought this flashlight many years ago and I left it in a rental car! I ordered a new one to replace it. This is the only flashlight I have found that starts on low light than high. Excellent quality. I did have the recharger and batteries to go with that it that work well too. I am tired of throwing batteries in the landfill. I perfer the low light first so as not to toatally destroy my night vision. When I need brighter I just click again. About every flashlight on the market goes high to low with a strobe last. I suspect they are all using the same chinese chip for it. Good Luck BP

I rate this flashlight 5 stars because it’s a good flashlight to use for duty although it gets hot fast and the battery life on it sucks. I have bought the big pack of batteries because the battery life it bad and also have used the rechargeable batteries and they help just a tad bit more but still have to charge them very often.

Bought the yellow one bc I didnt feel like waiting 2 weeks for desert tan and not paying extra money for black. Light is nice and bright on full power mode, I do like the low power mode for when you need to see but not be seen. Light feels sturdy and strong. The yellow color is not SUPER yellow which is a good thing, like a dull flat yellow. Guess it will help you find it if it is on the ground at night.

As with all surefire products it’s perfect.

They just work. I have four of these now. The oldest is 10 years. They fit perfectly in a slot on the right leg of my Carhartt cargo pants. When jogging in the dark the low beam lets me see the trip hazards. The high beam makes sure I am seen by drivers.

I already have 2 of them. This was a gift. Rechargeable batteries are recommended because they die quickly on high power.

This light fell from 25ft height on bunch of boulders and only had few scratches. It’s not the brightest light I own but definitely the most durable one
