Reviews : Best in class with one caveat
This review is from:SureFire E1B Backup E1B-BK-WH LED Flashlight
This is usually a pretty good flashilight. As far as a backup goes, you can’t beat it. The light’s intensity when on “high beam” is amazing, and also the choice for a “low beam” makes it far more of versatile light than say, the Surefire E2.
Nonetheless… In particular circles, there is really a drawback. When you initially hit the button, you get the substantial beam. If you’re within the habit of pulsing the switch so as to illuminate but not constantly stream the light, once you pulse it a second time, you only get the lower beam, not the great again. So, pulse one = substantial beam. Pulse two = minimal beam, not substantial. This alone compromises this light’s usefullness for certain applications.
So this light is what it says it is, a backup. It will not entirely cover the functionality of a purely tactical flashlight. The reduced beam is nice for reading maps and eliminated the need for a microlight, though.
