Strengths & Trade-offs

Strengths

  • IPX8 submersion rating means this light can handle being fully submerged in water — a must-have for outdoor, tactical, and maritime applications.
  • Impact-tested to 2.0 meters, this light is built to survive drops and rough handling in the field.

Trade-offs

  • At 907g, this is a heavier light — acceptable for duty use or a pack, but too heavy for lightweight EDC pocket carry.
  • At 267.0mm long, this won't disappear in a pocket. It's sized more like a small baton than an EDC light.
  • No electronic lockout feature means you'll need to physically lock out the tail cap (if possible) to prevent accidental activation.
  • No pocket clip is included — you'll need a holster or aftermarket clip for secure carry.
