Very nice light, a little bigger than my Surefire 6PX but with three times the specs on lumens and run time. Extras included were a nylon holster/pouch, wrist lanyard, removeable clip, extra set of o-ring seals and a replacement rubber switch cover, nice touch to include all the extras. Overall a very well made light and could not be happier.

Bright is an understatement, lights the whole backyard up and trees 100+ yards behind the house are lite up enough to shoot squirrels out of them. One option on the light that I thought was a little silly, but is the current rage in lights, the strobe mode. Well not silly to my daughter and wife, both disliked it a whole lot and stated that it made their head ache, yes they ok'd me doing it Not that I will ever need it, nice to have if I do.

An update on the original posting......I solved the issue with the Pelican M6 tail cap switch. Finally got the tail cap apart, the two springs looked a little compressed, a little streching out of the spings seems to have fixed the problem, short term at least, need to find replacements for long term reliablitiy and peice of mind.
