SureFire E2D Defender Ultra (E2DLU-A) 1000 Lumens Dual-Output Tactical Flashlight LED - Bundle with 4 Extra CR123A Batteries and Battery Case - Tailcap Click Switch Light, EDC Defense Flashlights

Yes, it's expensive, but it's worth every penny. I completely depend on this flashlight for work and for seeing deep into woods on the darkest night AND for being a self defense companion to my primary defensive tool. The tactical dual setting switch is great. The first slight push gives a blinding 1000 lumen punch which you can maintain by pushing harder on the switch to engage the constant on mode. Press lightly and rapidly twice on the switch and you're in 5 lumen mode. To hold the 5 lumens just push harder to engage constant on. It is hard for anything to hide from this light, yet at 5 lumens it is harder for you to be detected. It lights first time every time and won't let you down. I spent more on dozens of cheaper flashlights than just buying this one time. Clips into front pocket without drawing attention and is light, comfortable and POWERFUL. This is the 4th, maybe 5th Surefire flashlight I have purchased and all of them still work like new after many years of service. This one, however, is the pinnacle of functionality and power in a pocket stowable edc light. I would recommend the rechargeable batteries and charging cradle. As an aside, I carry spare batteries in my pocket. They fit great in the pocket watch pocket of jeans or in a plastic case in a cargo pocket.

I have used Surefire for years. A brand I highly recommend and trust. I am beyond satisfied with this purchase. I ordered 2 and both flashlights came with a small battery case with 4 authentic Surefire batteries included as well as 2 inside your light, ready out the box. I compared the batteries to my Surefire batteries I had at home and they are legit. A total of 6 batteries included is very generous. Only complaint I have which has nothing to do with the seller was that my package surprisingly was actually delivered to the wrong address and luckily it was my neighbor who held onto it for me. Light is aluminum and extremely durable and can def take a beating. Cheers to your new Surefire light ladies and gentlemen! Lastly, thank you to the seller. I appreciate it. Also, I checked the Surefire website for the verified sellers and they happen to be one of them and that is why I did the purchase. You won’t regret it, high quality light, good amount of weight.

The E2D Defender Ultra is an awesome every day carry! Have owned and used surefire for work, home and everyday carry for 15+ years and they never let me down. This one is a great design! Fits perfectly in the hand, nice double pocket clip, and very well built. I like how this one has a low almost "stealth like" mode to discreetly light up your path, and the the high 1000 Lumen mode is very intense, surprisingly bright !

Just ordered this Surefire defender and the Streamlight Protac HPL USB to compare both. Since both aren't 100% USA product I figured I would give them both a shot. I think Surefire has the edge though on close to all USA made.The beams, both are 1000 lumens, the surefire is a much more diffused beam and the Streamlight has a very obvious bright center spot to it. They are both well made and I think would both do well for just about any situation but I would chose the Surefire because it would handle better indoors or confined areas as well as outdoors. The Streamlight really throws a bright center spot a Lon distance though so depending on your scenario....that's my take on it. Streamlight is about half as much as the Surefire cost might be a factor for some also.

I always wanted this light. It's even better than I thought. Surefire makes the best product

You can't go wrong with SureFire products. This flashlight is tough and durable. Really bright light, throws plenty of peripheral light also. Minor draw backs are that battery life is limited to a few hours, and it can get pretty warm. But like I said, they're minor draw backs. SureFires are not cheap. It is a well made tool. You definitely get your moneys worth.

Can't say enough good things about this little light. I lost an older version of this EDC tactical light (really bummed) and purchased this as a replacement. The good news is the older one was less powerful though functionally it was the same in all other aspects. It works as advertised. Cannot beat the build quality of Surefire. The SS clip is a nice feature for EDC and the crenellated bezel and tailcap on each end would make for more effective self-defense if needed. The light with 1000 lumens is absolutely blinding but the secondary mode is great for providing soft light in a non-tactical situation.

The only partial negative on this flashlight is battery life on the high setting which is what I will use it on the percentage of the time. That being said you can not beat the quality of this flashlight
