There are other single-cell lights out there that are much brighter and cost nearly half of what this one does. Take the Jetbeam Jet-1 Pro v3.0, for instance. It costs around $70, and gets 140 lumens from a normal AA battery, or 240 from a 14500 Li-ion. It also weighs less (1.75 oz Vs. 2.8 oz.) and is the same length as the Surefire. Fenix also has some awesome lights that are vastly cheaper and outperform the E1B.

I bought one and I like it so much I bought another for my wifes up coming Birthday, We have 2 acres and she is always heading out to check her horses, This is a perfect gift. Expensive,,,Yes, But using only 1 battery and lasting as long as it does, It' worth it, Just don't lose it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35463639.post-1464227740669127562009-07-18T01:29:05.417-03:002009-07-18T01:29:05.417-03:00I love this light, I have a few Surefire's, Bu...I love this light, I have a few Surefire's, But ebay they go, This light does it all, It is small, VERY POWERFUL, 80 lumens sounds like alot, But when you turn it on,, it's twice what I expected, I don't like led, but this is so bright and smooth I love it, And It runs on 1 cr123 or cr123a battery, And that seams to last forever, It has 2 settings and even the low setting is plenty of light and that last like 37 hours, Good for everything from reading a map to lighting up the tent for camping, You can get such a great deal on batteries on ebay now that it does not kill you to turn one on and leave it on like it use to.
