Surefire G2X MaxVision Flashlight Review

  • I drop test the Surefire G2X with MaxVision head on concrete multiple times and do a beam comparison with the Surefire G2X Defender. I also discuss the features of the light, it's construction, and what I think of it overall.

    the Raven Concealment ring clip add on makes this very easy to handle and carry. I have some older model G2X and the raven clip is a must have for most work related use.

    I have carried Surefire flashlights for over 20 years, first as a police officer, and for EDC now that I am retired. I used my lights so much that I would have gone broke if they were not rechargeable. I mainly carry a Surefire Peacekeeper, which I have a small belt holster for. It looks like the light you featured today, except that it has an aluminum body and uses the 18650 rechargeable batteries. I also have a R1 Lawman model, which uses the 18650 battery also, but plugs into a charger (ac or dc) but also has a stick that you can swap out that takes the CR123 batteries. It seems like anymore, Surefire has gone away from the rechargeable batteries. I have been interested in the rechargeable Olight flashlights that you have highlighted. Good review. Love the channel.

    I have used mine for about 2 years now. I am a robotic welder and work 3rd shift. I use to inspect welds inside deep cavities. The wide beam exceeded my expectations. Best light I have ever owned. Will buy again.

    Surefire is doing good with the maxvision stuff. They need to make them with a single output like the other g2x's.

    I have the GX2 Pro 600 lumen model but I didn't even know about this Max Vision version. I'm really disappointed that Surefire hasn't adapted this flashlight to take 18650 batteries since it would give a much better battery life plus save a ton of money in the long run. Streamlight has finally started offering some of their CR-123 only flashlights with "dual fuel" CR-123 and18650 capabilities and I suspect that Surefire will eventually do the same. Thanks for the excellent review.

    • @The_Crazy_Monkey75
      @The_Crazy_Monkey75 5 лет назад +3

      Surefire can take 16650 batteries though. 18650 doesnt fit, but 16650 does. It works without any problem.

    I bought 3 SF lights on a sale for family. When I cranked it up it was on low then click again for HI. That's what happens when you don't read the fine print. This was from the SF website too. Oh well, for what I bought them for they will work fine. Just a NO-GO as a weapon light.

    with the number of flashlights in your house you would have to have a room dedicated to just batteries. you are bananas about some flashlights.

  • @The_Crazy_Monkey75
    @The_Crazy_Monkey75 Год назад +1

    My Surefire G2X Pro works fine on rechargeable 16650 Lithium ion battery, an 18650 won't fit. I'm sure their MaxVision series will work fine with it also.

    I’m a correction officer and need a solid light for work. So far this light looks like the best choice but would you recommend any other lights? Not sure if I’ll ever really need 800 lumens. I also would like something that I can just drop in a charger rather than dealing with a separate battery charger

  • @YourMom-ii7ed

  • @vahebaldemian
    @vahebaldemian 6 лет назад +2

    The Tactical throws the high beam first and then low beam on the second click. I for some reason like the Pro because it throws the low beam first. I found that a lot of the time that the high beam was too much light right off the bat for indoor functions, whether it's not discreet at the moment/giving us away, or blinding my partners and I. 600 SUREFIRE lumen is a lot indoors. Lol

      This light wont take 18650 rechargeable batteries, but it WILL take 16650 rechargeable batteries just fine, which is the slightly smaller diameter version of an 18650 battery.

  • @slumberpass
    @slumberpass 6 лет назад +7

    I enjoy your reviews, however, you should really put to the test the myth that "rechargeables shut off suddenly and leave you in the dark". This may have been true when using 2xRCR123's, but with a single LiIon, I think you'll pleasantly surprised. In my experience running a single 18650 or 16650 in lights designed to run on 2xCR123's, the lights have a very long and gradual taper as the voltage drops. See for yourself. Keep up the good work.

    My first Surefire light didn't even say Surefire, it had Laser Products. Every time I go to a conference where they are going to be there I bring my old light and they check it after trying to buy it. I carried that light for many years while on duty and it has been placed in retirement. My go to lights is Surefire and you cannot go wrong with Surefire products.

  • @jacobmanalang8162
    @jacobmanalang8162 6 лет назад

    i think rechargeables are fine nowadays as long as it is a quality cell. for example if a surefire cr123a is a li ion panasonic with a surefire wrapper on it and its good to go...why wouldnt panasonic 18650s be just as good just because it is rechargeable? it is also li ion.
    for back up or storage of course ill have a dozen cr123a's on hand for the next 10 years with some in my bag and car to swap out. some lights vary so youll get different runtimes but its usually better.
    but then again im not leo or first responder so i can take the risk..and i do. i carry a tactician with a 16650 in it but i do have 2 pairs of surefire cr123a's in my bag. i did have a 16650 go bad after 2 years? so i replaced it for a whopping 10 dollars and use it everyday again. it was in my fury pro, now like i said, my tactician.
