There are some many LED flashlights brands.
Someone should make a list of quality tactical flashlights that are GTG.

are the bright strike flashlights of good quality?

Looks like your average Chinese airsoft stuff... But if you want to know for sure, this is not the forum to ask. Head over to CPF.

Yeah I know I have 3 12



m600v, m952v, V2, 4 G2s, weaponized E2D, x300, m961, and 2 Helmet lights. I will say I've never played with their headlamps, but I'm perfectly satisfied with Petzl and Princeton Tech.

I'd like to try some other weapon and handheld lights, but I'm just so comfortable with SF. I'd like to try some Inova, Insight, and streamlights, especially because there are some good non-SF IR lights, but I just haven't had the chance (or found any cheap on the EE). I know there are also some really nice handheld lights out there, I just don't really know much about them.

I love my Cheap INOVA 5x
When my surefire batts run out, I put the batts in the INOVA and I cant belive how much runtime I get from the dead surefire batts from my surefire lights.
looking very hard at INFORCE

I probably should try their white lights. I had their Inforce Color and the thing turned me off to their whole line of lights, sold it 2 days after I got it in the mail.

I've seen them a few times at trade shows.  They have some interesting items, but most is stuff you can get from a hundred other companies.  Their lights seemed well made, but used older technology from what I saw.  Their higher end line is made in the US and the price is correspondingly high.  If you want US made, I'd stick with Surefire.

I do the same thing.  I have a few X5's that are great for power outages and getting around the bedroom without waking up the wife.    I have a stash of used-up batteries that go into the X5's.

I was referring to Bright Strike, but I am familiar with Inforce as well.  Inforce makes some really cool stuff, but their interfaces on their more advanced lights are kind of cumbersome.  The simpler lights are super rugged, lightweight, and are pretty cool.  The new Inforce weapon light looks very intriguing.  They are moving away from selling to civilians though.
