- In this video I’ll be reviewing the cloud defensive rein 3.0 weapon mounted flashlight and why I would not recommend you buy it. I show close ups and go in depth on multiple different parts of the light. Surefire 640dft is an overall better investment and is slightly cheaper. Making this video in hopes of helping people so they do not make the same mistake I did. Numbers on paper do not mean something is necessarily better. If you have any questions feel free to comment. If you could like and subscribe I would appreciate that and it would help the channel. Thanks for watching.

I like the light. I ran 600 rounds with it so far no issues on the light itself. I do not like the gen1&2 switch at all. It’s already falling apart. I haven’t tried their new switch
@@4paz It might work for some people but failed to do what it was supposed to do twice for me when it was brand new. And cloud defensive not only took it off there website, but had to make a new switch which shows me they’ve had a lot of failures. I had a switch cable pretty much become defective just trying to mount it. Ridiculous for a 300$ light. I can’t recommend it with these problems especially when surefire has a better 640dft out. Hope it keeps working well for you though.
Holy fuck… I was literally just about to pull the trigger on one. Wanted to watch a few more reviews
Glad I helped you brother. I’ll never buy another cloud defensive again. Get the surefire 640dft scout light pro instead. Best rifle light out there. Durable, reliable,duel fuel, and good performance. I made a video on the surefire 640dft if you want more information about it.
Just got my Rein 3.0 with the 4th (new) generation switch. I haven't shot yet. No extra gaskets but it came with a inline MLOK mount and everything else yours did and the included switch is constant only. It installed fairly easily with only minor difficulty cable routing. No damage so far. I went with CD Rein 3.0 for my 14.5 build for the same reasons and also the Rein 3.0 comes with a switch. Switches cost nearly half what I paid for the Rein on top of the light and that's not including a new tail cap. Even more for the Surefire DS00 I would have needed. The weight was also a minor factor. I'm not too concerned with the durability out of the box but we will see. I'll likely be replacing the constant switch with a momentary only as the rear button on the Rein has the same functionality out of the box.
Hopefully with the 4th generation switch they fixed the sheathing breakage issue. That’s nice yours came with mlok. This older version came with picatinny but they started to ship with mlok. I’ve also seen problems with there mlok inline mount because the mounting holes are so close together, the holes would open up into each other. That light was for my 14.5 as well. Switches are expensive. The whole package for 400$+ isn’t a bad deal since it gives you all you need. I was just disappointed with the overall reliability. Unfortunately quality stuff is usually more expensive. But after having 2 failures with it being brand new, seeing other cd mounts break and them taking both off their website, I didn’t want to use cd anymore. Yeah surefire stuff can be expensive. I ended up just using a tail push cap on my 14.5 and not using a switch. A little bit more reliable, less cost, and less chance for an AD. Is the 4th gen switch constant only? Anyways, I hope it works out better for you than it did me. I thought this information should be put out there and I couldn’t recommend this product in good conscience especially with something like the surefire 640dft scout light pro that’s out. A lot better option in my opinion. Durability and reliability. Good luck with your setup👍🏼
My experience with Cloud has sucked so far too. Hoping to rehome it and go with a trusty ole Surefire.
Edit: I’ve heard some people were able to mitigate their issues with their Rein 3.0 by using Molicel P30B 18650/18350 batteries.
@@DanielRodriguez-cv9jr I’m sorry to hear that. I ended up selling mine on eBay for a fair deal. There should be more testing before companies start selling products to the masses. Pretty ridiculous that you have to buy a different companies battery to get it to work properly. I switched to a surefire 640dft. It works well.
