SureFire G2 Nitrolon Flashlight

The Surefire G2 flashlight is an excellent buy. The G2 is the most cost effective flashlight Surefire manufacturers and provides the same light output as Surefire which cost four times as much.

The Surefire G2 comes in an indestructible Nitrolon body which is basically a reinforced form of plastic. Do not be fooled this light is lightweight, powerful, compact and pack a punch. It puts out sixty lumens which is equivalent to other Surefire lights such as:

Surefire 6P
Surefire G2Z
Surefire C3

The above mentioned lights are much more expensive then the G2 because of the aircraft aluminum used versus the Nitrolon.

The Surefire 6P puts out a clean, focused, tactical beam that produces four times the average two D Cell flashlights. The Surefire G2 has the capability to temporarily blind an attacker and also has the ability to disorient someone who has adapted their vision to the night. An optional Surefire P61 lamp assembly is available which doubles the run time however the battery life drops 66%. The Surefire G2 is supplied with the standard P60 lamp assembly which provides 60 lumens for 60 minutes, however with optional P61 a searing 120 lumens is produced but the run time is a mere 20 minutes.

The Surefire G2 requires 2 CR123 batteries and comes in four colors:

Black
Desert Tan
Yellow
Olive Drab Green

The Surefire G2 flashlight features the following:

Weatherproof body with O Ring Seals
Tail cap switch when pressed is a momentary light however when twisted it is constantly on
Turn the switch two full turns from the on position and the safety is engaged to prevent accidental lighting when being packed or traveled.
Supplied with 2 CR123 Batteries

The Surefire G2 is 4.9 inches long and 4.1 ounces heavy. Optional accessories include:

SC1 Spares Carrier for carrying bulbs and batteries (spare)
Z33 Lanyard
FM37 Beamcover and Lens protector
V70 Speed holster
V20 Fixed Loop Holster
F28 Traffic Wand

The Surefire G2 as mentioned earlier is the most cost effective light and yet provides the equivalent performance of much more expensive Surefire lights. If you do not want to shell out the big bucks for a Surefire this light is an excellent choice.
