37 customers mention37 positive0 negative

Customers are satisfied with the brightness of the flashlight. They mention that it provides a wall of light, and the unique reflector provides directional light. The light is decent for the size and the 400 lumens could fill a room. The MaxVision beam is nice, and it's perfect for camping or hiking at night. The dual light output is just right on both accounts, and is easy to conceal.

The pocket clip is strong, yet not bulky.

Surefire Quality.
Have owning several Surefire flashlights this one fills a hole in my collection. I purchased this for EDC usage & have been carrying for around a month now in my left front jeans pocket ( right pocket dedicated to Benchmade knife). The quality is as expected need I say more. This is the first Surefire Maxvision I have ever owned so I was very excited to test it out. Results: I’m really impressed how smooth the food beam spills out, the color is white & the 400 lumens could fill a room, light up my front yard or surly blind someone if needed. As expected the throw is not going to be that of other models. If I need throw I’ll break out my Fury DFT Intellibeam.Update: the rechargeable batteries only last 20 minutes. Barely gets me through a dog walk. The throw away batteries last a little longer but definitely not a fuel efficient system with the rechargeable batteries. Take it for what it’s worth. Come on Surefire, please don’t let China pass you by. (Former Navy weapons specialist)

It’s lasted under real everyday use. SURFIRE is the way to go. Excellent back up or for the perfect pocket light. Carry a spare battery in your wallet though because you tend to use this light a lot more with its reliability AMD you might get a little creative with its uses.

Cheers.

Estoy realmente sorprendido con la calidad de esta linterna, me gusta la solidez y el acabado. La luz es muy amplia y dispersa costa un área cercana o en un cierto lo ilumina muy bien, casi no tiene tanto alcanze pero para eso hay otras opciones de linternas, está cumple su propósito muy bien quizá lo que me gustaría es que lanzar primero la baja y en la segunda la alta pues realmente casi siempre uso la luz en baja.
