Trickster Treated to Blast of Light
It was Halloween, and my wife, my daughter, and I were out trick-or-treating. At a house next to a dark, desolate field, the homeowners told us that someone in the field was shooting a BB gun at the children walking by - one child had even been hit in the chest.
I had my SureFire C2 Centurion® with me, and I was angry at the thought of someone shooting at innocent children, so I charged into the dark field and promptly illuminated the punk, who ran off, petrified. If it weren't for my SureFire, he would've stayed hidden and continued his rampage, and a kid could've been seriously injured, but my SureFire saved the night. You've got a customer for life.

SureFire Saves Deer from Becoming Speed Bump
Every time I walk out the door, I carry a few essential items, one of them being my SureFire 6P® LED. On the way to the movies, my buddy and I almost hit a deer lying in the middle of the road. It had evidently been hit by a car and couldn't get up.
We pulled over and investigated. The deer was still alive, but if another driver wasn't wary, there could easily be an accident. I pulled out my SureFire and put on a reflective vest that I had in the car. I turned on my light, and its beam cut through the night like a knife through butter. While my friend stood by the deer and tried to get it moving, I flagged down passing motorists with my SureFire and warned them of the danger ahead. One motorist even commented that my flashlight looked like a light saber.
After about five minutes, the deer found enough strength to get up and run into the woods. My friend and I left, happy for the deer, for the fact we'd helped prevent an accident, and especially happy with the way my SureFire 6P performed. I'll never buy another brand of flashlight.

G2 Delivers During Delivery
My wife and I decided to have our third baby at home, with the help of some wonderful midwives we found in a nearby town. At about 2:30 a.m., when our little girl decided she was ready, the midwives and I gathered around my wife to assist her. It was then that we realized our bedroom ceiling light was just not providing enough illumination. So I reached for the nearest SureFire, which was a G2® Nitrolon®, and lit up the area. The midwives carry flashlights for such situations, but they'd never seen anything like my little G2.
Long story short, I sent each of the midwives home with a G2 Nitrolon. And, since then, I've given them each a couple of boxes of batteries and set them up with Surefire spares carriers full of batteries and spare bulbs. Now our fourth child is due, and just like the last one, I'm sure that the first thing the kid will see is the bright light of a SureFire at the end of the tunnel!
Thanks for making such excellent products!

Good Light is the Key
I am a T7 paraplegic who's been confined to a wheelchair for the past 16 years. One winter evening, while out with some friends, the weather outside turned from rain to ice. My van was parked at the far end of the lot, and I told everyone I'd be fine getting into my van, so they left. But when I got there, my door locks were frozen solid and I couldn't get a key in them. Plus, I'd been in such a rush to get out of the house that I'd forgotten my cell phone.
Luckily, I hadn't forgotten my SureFire 9P® Original with its high-output P91 lamp. I removed the light from my backpack, held it over the lock for a couple of minutes, and behold—the heat from the 9P's lamp melted the ice in the lock. Now I never leave the house without it.
Thanks for making the best light made. It saved me that night!

SureFire Pays for Itself in Minutes
I was recently at a gun show, with one of my buddies, and we were on the lookout for SureFire flashlights there. As I was leaving, I came across a booth selling knock-off SureFire, and I started to check them out, when my buddy said, "Don't waste your money on that - it's a piece of junk. A SureFire is a much better light and well worth the extra money."
I took his advice and waited and bought a 6P® LED the next day at a tactical shop. When I got my new flashlight home I started shining it around my house, checking out how bright it was. I've owned my house for 10 years, and I thought I'd seen every square inch of it. But with my SureFire I found an unknown cubby hole behind my attic stairs, and about four feet into the hole I saw a stack of seven $20 bills, covered in dust, that I assume the previous owner had stashed away. I immediately call my buddy and told him he was right - the SureFire was well worth it!

L4 Instrumental in Successful Rescue
I'm a volunteer for my local ambulance service, and one dark night we got called to a job where someone had fallen. It turns out our patient had fallen down a four-meter vertical bank off a deserted gravel road, and there was no lighting available.
My partner used his service-issue torch to have a look down at the patient, but it didn't really light much up. Then I pulled out my SureFire L4 LumaMax®, and it was like I turned on the sun. We could see down the bank and clearly see our patient. I used my light to hunt for a clear path down, which I found, and quickly learned that our patient had a fractured and dislocated ankle. With the darkness and limited space restraints, we had to call in a rescue squad to scoop the patient out with a stokes basket.
When they arrived, I used my L4 to light up the scene. Every time I shined my torch in a different direction, it was like the sun turned off. Everyone was impressed with my L4's performance, as their torches looked like matches compared to mine! We got the patient out of there and to the hospital, but, if it hadn't been for my SureFire, the job would have been 10 times more difficult!

G2 Helps Avoid Titanic Situation
For Christmas last year, I got my cousin a Surefire G2 Nitrolon® because he was going to Alaska to work on a fishing boat as the cook. When he got back, he told us all how his SureFire flashlight saved his life.
One night, while out at sea, it was foggy, and my cousin saw what he said "looked like little lily pads" in the distance. He didn't know how to work the big spotlight onboard, so he grabbed his G2 and pointed it at the "lily pads," discovering that they were icebergs. They stopped and turned around, thanks to the G2.
If it hadn't been for that G2, he and some other men might not be here anymore. Thank you, SureFire, for your amazing products and the effort you put into them.

SureFire Saves Inspector Time and Homeowners Money
I'm an inspector and compliance consultant in the housing industry, so I'm often called upon to accompany government subcontract inspectors when they inspect my clients' properties. I can't tell you how many times one of these guys has squinted into the darkness with his crummy flashlight in hand and said he was going to cite my client for a violation he "thinks" he sees. That's when one of my SureFires helps me earn my pay. I always keep an E1L Outdoorsman on a lanyard around my neck and a U2 Ultra™ in my hip pocket. I remove my E1L from its lanyard, hand it to the guy, and tell him he'd better show me a clear violation before he writes one up. It often turns out that, when the inspector sees things in "a better light," he discovers he is wrong. That's because my I've already inspected the area before him, using my SureFires, and already made any repairs that were needed.

Jaws of Life Can't Kill SureFire Centurion
I work for an ambulance company as an E.M.T. in Louisiana. Well, one night we responded to an SUV that had run off the road and into an oak tree. It happened to be a bad wreck, and both of the patients needed to be cut out of the car by the fire dept. This was at 0200 in the morning, and the cops on scene were carrying Mag-Lites, which we needed. When we went to turn them on, neither of the Mag-Lites worked.
I went back to my ambulance and grabbed my SureFire Centurion® and E1L. Needless to say, they both worked wonderfully as we worked on our patients, both of whom had fractured femurs. When the fire dept finally got there with the "jaws of life", we were working on our patients. One of the fireman hit my hand, and I looked on in horror as my Centurion went flying out of my hand and hit the pavement, lens down, making an awful cracking sound. I picked it up and looked at it...the Pyrex window was cracked! I turned it on to see if it would still work, and it still worked wonderfully, which was great, as we had a second patient to go and still needed light.
All I want to say is thanks, SureFire, for making my job that much easier by making such well-made equipment and bringing light to some very dark places in Louisiana.

Defender Foils "Dognapping"
I take my German short-haired pointer, Hank, for late night walks, and I always carry my SureFire E2D Defender®. One night, while strolling through town, I stopped for some ice cream for him and me (vanilla is Hank's favorite). I tied Hank's leash to the bench outside and went in. While inside, a stranger, armed with the power of persuasion—dog biscuits, lured Hank into the back of his SUV.
From inside, I saw Hank's face in the back window of the strange SUV, so I dropped my ice cream and ran after my best friend. The SUV started to pull off, so I drew my SureFire from my pocket and smashed the car's window with its Strike Bezel™. Hank leapt out of the back and ran to me as the SUV drove off.
I used to only carry my E2D on our late night walks. Now I carry it everywhere, day or night. Had I lost my best friend, I don't know what I would have done. Thanks, SureFire.

Defender Unfreezes Frozen Bandages
In January, my friends and I were sledding down a hill on a golf course. On one run, we came close to hitting a tree, so we all dug our hands into the ice to stop. One of the girls cut herself and was bleeding pretty badly.
I had a first-aid kit in my trunk, so I used my E2D Defender® to illuminate the icy path up to my car. When I opened the kit, I discovered that the band-aids inside were frozen solid, way too stiff to apply. Then I remembered reading a SureFire True Story about a guy who used his SureFire to dry fire wood. I figured that if a SureFire could get warm enough to dry firewood, my E2D could surely thaw out a couple of band-aids. It worked, and we used band-aids to help stop the bleeding on my friend's arm before taking her home to get her cuts wrapped up.

Aviator a Hit at Sea
I went out boating with my roommate and several of his friends on a 30-foot powerboat. When we arrived at the docks it was dusk, and the boat owner saw that I had a flashlight, my SureFire A2 Aviator®, so he sent me inside to turn on the boat's power. I still hadn’t located the circuit panel after about fifteen seconds (it was hidden behind a corner), so I decided to use the incandescent beam to light up the entire cabin. The boat owner saw the cabin light up from above and thought I had turned on the lights below deck without giving power to the rest of the boat!
About two hours later, when returning to the docks, we found that the spotlight on the boat did not work properly, and the owner asked me if I could shine my "super bright" flashlight in front of the boat to see if we could spot any channel markers. Not only could we clearly see the channel markers reflecting from about 200 feet away, we could also see the next TWO sets of markers beyond them! The boat owner commented, "Thats one helluva light!" and I was assigned spotlight duty to guide the boat in. As we neared land, the A2 was used to spot numerous piles of debris and mangroves so we could maneuver around them.
Afterwards, my roommate said, “I promise to never again make fun of you for spending the extra money on a SureFire!"

The Best Hunting Tool Since the Gun
The A2 Aviator® hybrid flashlight is one piece of gear I never hunt without. The white LEDs were crucial when my father and I went hunting in South Carolina.
On the first night out in the deer stand, it was important to use the low-powered white LEDs so we would not spook any nearby dear and to inspect my father's rifle, which had a bore obstruction. A day later, I had to walk through a swamp to get to a ground blind, and the A2 showed it's great versatility when its batteries' power level dropped too far for the incandescent element to work anymore. Instead of fumbling the rest of the way in the dark, the LEDs worked like a charm and provided more than enough light to get around the snakes and find the ground blind.
A year later, with the same A2 Aviator but fresh batteries, we were hunting in South Carolina again, when my father shot and wounded a deer. It was dark, and finding a blood trail was made a whole lot easier, and safer, using the A2 Aviator flashlight. I will never go into the woods again without the A2 Aviator.

Enough With the Fireworks Already
It was almost a week after Independence Day, on a weeknight, when the neighbors across the common area behind my house were still setting off fireworks into the early morning hours. This had been their ritual every night since a week before the 4th. I'm as patriotic as the next guy, and I love fireworks, but setting them off after midnight on weeknights well after the celebration should have ended was a bit much. Not to mention that their fireworks had awoken our baby every single night.
There was not a single light in the common area, and they were sitting on their back porch with all the house lights off. I couldn't see them, and they couldn't see me. I walked into the common area and said that it was a little late for fireworks on a weeknight and asked if they could please wrap it up for the night. They said nothing. I asked again, explaining that we had a sick baby asleep in bed and would really like her to stay asleep. Again, I was completely ignored. So I pulled out my C2 LED, pointed it at their faint silhouettes, and fired it up. I was about 30 feet away, and they all covered their faces with their arms. I left it there while I politely stated that we have city noise ordinances and that I would be calling the police if they set another one off.
Haven't heard a single firework since.

Big Beam Prevents Big Bang
I'm a transportation inspector for the New Mexico Department of Public Safety, and our duty is to ensure safe and legal operation of commercial motor vehicles not only for the driver's safety, but also for the travelers around them. I was performing a routine inspection on a semi truck, and as I walked around the truck I could smell diesel. I had my partner get under the truck to see if he could locate the smell, but with his ordinary flashlight he could see nothing unusual. So I whipped out my brand new SureFire U2 Ultra™ and had a look. With my U2's bright beam, I quickly discovered that a fuel line was leaking and dripping onto a VERY hot exhaust line.
My partner and I immediately closed off a section of the parking lot to prevent anything bad from happening—all thanks to my new purchase. After that incident, the rest of the inspectors went out and purchased new SureFires.

U2 Keeps Customer from Getting Brake Jobbed
I'd recently purchased a SureFire U2 Ultra™ and had it in my coat pocket, when I took my car to a local mechanic for some routine maintenance. Fifteen minutes into my visit, the service writer pulled me aside and told me that my car's brakes were "unsafe" and badly in need of new front brake pads, unaware that I'd recently had my brake pads replaced elsewhere. The service writer took me out to the mechanic working on my car to show me the condition of my brake pads. In the relatively dark garage, he shined an extremely dim penlight into the tiny gap between the brake pad and front rotor and said, "See? There's nothing there." Then he told me he'd gladly perform a brake service for the mere price of $390.
I smiled at him and said, "You mean to tell me that you diagnosed my car with THAT little flashlight? Charging $390 for a brake job, you should be able to afford one of these." I whipped out my U2, set it to max output, pressed the switch, and filled his dark garage with brilliant light. When I shined it on the brake pad, it was clear as day that the brake pad had plenty of life left. Also clear as day were the glum looks on the mechanic and service writer's face.
The look on their faces was well worth the price of my U2. And it's priceless knowing that this shop will think twice about bilking people out of their cash for unneeded repairs. After all, they'll never know when another customer might whip out his SureFire to shed more light on the situation

SureFire Blazes Trail to Madagascar's Tip
While attempting to reach the tip of Madagascar, in search of new botanical species, disaster struck—the rainy season came early. Pushing to make it before the rains made the roads impassable, the Land Cruiser's motor died. Then, after the driver drained all of its power winching the vehicle out of the mud, so did the battery. We were forced to hire six men to act as porters to get us to a fishing village where we could catch a boat back to Antseranana, in order to catch a plane back to Tana, the capital, and then another plane to Europe from there.
We were down to the wire, and I was due back in the States, so we set out in the darkness with our porters, miles of muddy road ahead of us. Only two of our porter s had shoes, and none had flashlights. Fortunately, I'd recently installed an MN02 extended-runtime lamp in my E2E. We walked through the night, the mud, and the rain, with only a couple of headlamps and intermittent illumination from my SureFire to keep us from stumbling and falling into the deep erosion rifts in the road. The couple of headlamps we had soon died, leaving only my E2E for illumination. We made the fishing village with an hour to spare, minus two porters and a third of our gear; they had gone ahead, without a light, and gotten lost. We found them later, covered in mud but no worse for wear, under the eaves of a fisherman's hut. It turned out that, in the dark, they had slipped down a ravine.
Despite dunkings in the Mozambique Channel, the Indian Ocean, and the Pacific Ocean, my used-and-abused SureFire came through unscathed. I have purchased flashlights from other manufactures, with much less happy results; some of those lights even failed to work in my own living room. Thanks for making such a great product. I'm a customer for life.

Strobe Clears Way for a Stroller
I run five miles a few times a week, and I push my daughter in a running stroller. I generally try to get back home before dusk, but on this particular night, I took an unfamiliar route. With about a mile left to run, it was already dark, and there was no sidewalk for the last mile of this excursion, so I had to share the edge of the road with oncoming traffic. Good thing I had my 6P® LED in the side pocket of the stroller. I whipped it out and used its tactical tailcap to create a strobe effect as cars came into view. Every single vehicle that passed slowed down and moved over to share the road.
I won't be going on any more runs after dark with my daughter, but good thing I had my SureFire that night. Thanks for making dependable tools for everyday situations.

SureFire Keeps Wheat Harvest Rolling
My little SureFire E1L survived a grueling wheat harvest season. It traveled from Electra, Texas, to Shelby, Montana, and never once failed. And now it will make the journey all over.
One night I was called off from driving the truck just so the boss could use my flashlight when we had a midnight breakdown of one of the combines. When I arrived, he had a huge four-D-cell light with a faded yellow beam; I think a lighter would have given off more light. I pulled my E1L out of my pocket, and it lit up the engine compartment bright as day.
With all of the rain Texas had in 2007, downtime was not an option. We replaced the part and the combine was up and running by morning. It's nice to know that my SureFire helped fix breakdowns but never had one.

"Revolutionary" 6P Keeps Train Moving
In 1992 I was traveling through Austria on a night train headed to Budapest. We were awakened by the horrible sound of stones pelting the bottom of the train and the severe jolt of emergency braking. I went to the end of the car and leaned out the window to see train personnel searching beneath the train, in vain, to determine if the train had struck an animal or a person. They were using old, anemic two-cell military flashlights with very dim outputs.
I thought to myself, "We'll be here for hours if all they have are those crappy old flashlights, so I called the conductor and offered him my SureFire 6P®, which I'd brought along for my summer in Europe. He switched it on and said, "Das ist aber hell," which means, "That's really bright." With my 6P, he made quick work of the inspection and determined that it was only a deer the train had struck. We were on our way again shortly, and he returned my 6P to me with the greatest of compliments.
What could have taken a long time was reduced to minutes, thanks to the performance of my, at that time, revolutionary SureFire 6P.

Guide's Jumbo Light Humbled by SureFire
I was on a boat, paddling on an underground river, exploring a network of caves. The expedition guide had a 12-volt car battery powering a halogen lamp with a six-inch-wide head. I had a Surefire 6P® Defender® (six volts, with a 1.25-inch head). Now, if you do the math, a 12-volt battery is twice the power of six volts, and a 6-inch head should produce a better beam than a 1.25-inch head. But I guess the folks at SureFire use a different kind of math, because my Surefire 6P Defender was easily twice as bright as the 12-volt halogen light the guides were using.
With my SureFire, things we couldn't see with the guides' light all of a sudden became very visible, making their light seem like some kind of kids' toy. I think the guide was discouraged that a little handheld beat his car-battery-powered biggie. In fact, after we got out of the caves, one guide said to another, "I think I need to change my battery." The other guide replied, "But your battery is brand new." If I'd had the chance, I would have told him, "Nothing wrong with your battery-what you need to change is your light...to a SureFire!"

Z2 Restores Toddler's Hearing
My two-year-old old son was born with no ear canals and deformed ears, but that hasn't stopped him from enjoying the great outdoors. With his bone-conduction hearing aid (about the size of ½ a AA battery) the sounds of the world are available to him. The only problem is that, from time to time, it snaps off its mount and falls to the ground. Last night, in the backyard, was one of those times.
I took my trusty Z2 CombatLight® out of my pocket and the hunt was on. I have had my Z2 for many years, and it has served me well, both at sea on submarines and at home. It took about 30 minutes searching his play area in the wood chips (the same size and color as the hearing aide) to finally find it. Lucky for me the tight focus and smooth beam reflected off the two gold screws and drew my attention to the hearing aid.
With a replacement cost of over $3,000, finding the hearing aid was music to my son's ears and a big relief to my pocketbook. My wife once asked me why I always carry my flashlight. After last night she was sure glad I did.

Flummoxed Flock
I'm a walnut farmer in Northern California, and I have a small flock of Barbados sheep for "organic" weed control on my farm. The sheep and I are frequently in some fairly rugged terrain, and I make sure to check their condition and portable electric fencing every day around nightfall. I always have my SureFire in hand to see skunks and other critters and to scare off the occasional stray dog or coyote that may be seeking out a lamb dinner.
One evening I noticed that the main matriarch sheep in the group was having a problem with her vision. I recognized the tail end of a wild oat seed that had become stuck under her eyelid, and I noticed that she and the rest of the flock were acting wild and upset because of her disorientation. They ran around frantically, while I tried in vain to catch the hurt one, but they wouldn't let me anywhere near her in their frightened state. This went on until dusk turned to night. So I pulled my trusty 6P® LED from my pocket and used it to temporarily blind and stun the sheep in a harmless way. I was then able to approach the hurt one and I remove the seed from her eye. I know that I saved lots of money on what would have been a hefty veterinary bill had the seed stayed in and caused any damage to her eye.
Thanks for producing the best flashlights in the world. I will always have my SureFire light with me wherever my sheep or I go.

Midnight Cruise for Outdoorsman
One cold, stormy night in March, I received a phone called from one of my friends. He told me he couldn't get his boat to start and he was 15 miles downriver from where he put in. He and another one of my friends had been catfishing that night, when they were caught by a storm, and now their boat wouldn't start. Before we hung up, they told me both of their cell phones were dying, so I wouldn't be able to call them again.
I called another friend to go with me, and we put in our boat at the same landing. He brought two rechargeable spotlights, and I brought a corded spotlight and my SureFire E2L Outdoorsman. The river was low when we started down the river to find them. Both of us had been on this river but never that far down, so we were going slow, due to the weather and all the exposed debris caused by the low water level. We started out using my spotlight, which ran off of the boat battery, but it had a short in it, so it quit working about two miles down the river. My friend started using his rechargeable spotlights, and we made it about 15 miles in the rain, finding my stranded friend, but by then they were drained.
We got my friend's boat cranked, but we were out of lights to navigate back upriver—until I remembered that my E2L was in my pocket. I gave it to my friend, and he laid on the bow and used it to navigate the 15 miles back upriver. It provided more than enough light for us to see where we were going and dodge all the debris in the river from the storm. Thanks to my E2L, we all made it home safely that cold, stormy night.

E2L Illuminates Marathon Roadside Repair
After reading a bunch of articles on the SureFire LEDs, and having excellent experience with my incandescent SureFire 6P®, I bought SureFire E2L in December 2007. One July evening my wife got a call from my brother-in-law's wife saying that his car broke down on I-85. I grabbed my L1 and my E2L, just in case I needed them both.
Well, I got there, and sure enough the water pump shaft was moving freely in the engine. We drove to the nearest auto-parts store, bought a new water pump, and came back to the car to start working on it. Good thing I had the E2L with me—it provided us with light for seven hours straight. My brother-in-law even said, "Your flashlight sure paid off tonight." It sure did.
Thank you, SureFire, for making an excellent product with such great runtime and reliability.

Hugging the Shore, Dodging the Logs
I've always loved paddling my kayak at dusk on a quiet river, but one night the return trip upstream proved to be more than I'd bargained for. Unknown to me, a storm had gone through upriver, sending a surge of water downstream. Normally the return trip upstream is a workout, but that night it was a fight to not lose ground in the channel, as the rain-swollen river's current had picked up considerably. Add to that the newly displaced logs floating downstream, which can put a hurting on a plastic kayak if you don't see them, which I couldn't, since my original return time had long since passed.
Thanks to my SureFire G2® with its P61 ultra high-output lamp, I was able to hug the bank and dodge both the current and submerged trees sticking above the surface. My G2's 120 lumens cut into the night a good 40 yards ahead, allowing me to plan my route with as much comfort as I could muster after two hours of all-out paddling. That G2's been in my personal flotation device anytime it's even close to dark ever since. And, yes, it's survived more than one dunking.

E2D Defends Itself Against Bad Boating
While in Wisconsin, fishing for white bass, I dropped my E2D Defender® over the side of our 16 foot Alumacraft. We eventually got it back by snagging the lanyard with a treble hook. After taking the batteries out and letting the whole flashlight dry overnight, the next day we replaced the batteries and, what do you know, it came through with 60 lumens of powerful light. But that isn't even the impressive part.
The very next day, as we were backing up the boat to the launch, the truck ran over my pile of gear, completely breaking my custom fishing rod. However, as I sifted through the splintered graphite, plastic, and metal, I found my SureFire completely unfazed by the one-ton truck's tires. That was last year, and I still have my SureFire today.
Thanks for the best of the best, SureFire. I really do inflict cruel and unusual punishment on my SureFire.
