SureFire G2 LED Nitrolon

Light, durable and easy to operate, SureFire's G2 LED Nitrolon (3rd Gen) is quite the handy-light. If you're using it to check around your house at night during a power-outage, on a camping trip, or in my case, sitting in it's pouch on my duty-belt until needed, this light does the job of helping you become more self-reliant. It's body is made of 'Nitrolon' material which is both light and tough, meaning if you drop it and accidentally kick it--it'll still be in the fight. The momentary-on tail-cap button allows one to easily deploy it in certain situations where you may need 120 Lumens quickly. In the event of lost items in the bushes or wandering through a poorly lit trail, the tail-cap also twists for constant-mode. The bezel is made of aluminum and the coated tempered window on the front again allows the light to still operate despite harsh conditions. They also take SureFire's infamous CR123A batteries (however expensive).



Many have used this light as a mere task-light, to even a non-lethal defensive option where impact weapons and lethal options haven't been considered or wouldn't want to be. Shining this tool into someone's night-adapted eyes will create the opportunity to counter-attack or to run. I have personally used this light both on and off-duty. Working security at a local mall, having a few night shifts, this light has served its purpose both defensively and as a task-light. Off-duty, it has saved my behind from aggressive animals by scaring them off.

Look into getting one, in CAD, it comes around $100-110.
