Surefire has had me hooked for years. My wallet is upset, tho

retsupt99 · April 17th, 2008, 07:46 PM

I have one SureFire...
I have tried other models for additional backup...none lasted!
Now I have two SureFires...can't beat 'em...

If you have a Surefire, don't put the cheapest LED drop in you can find in it. That's like putting 87 octane in a Ferrari. Get either the Malkoff (I highly recommend) or the Bug Out Gear drop in. Sure it costs as much as the light, but so does buying replacement bulbs that can break at any time, leaving you without light.

unfortunately, or furtunately...depending on how you look at it...the same thing happened to me, about 3 minutes after taking it out of the package!...opened it, put batteries in it...took it outside, and within 3 sec...nothing...called surefire and they next day aired me a new bulb assembly...cool...plus I ordered the 120 lumen upgrade and batteries, they shipped it all free, and now I have an extra light assembly for emergency.
yes I am a customer for life also.

I've got two G2's. Surefire make the best lights period!

I've got 3 Surefire lights now, E2e, 6P, and G2Z, and although I've been through tons of batteries the only bulb that I've had to replace was in my E2e and that was b/c I droped it and it exploded. They are a little pricey but by far the best lights out there.
