Common complaints
Limited beam throw compared to specialized long-range weapon lightsNo specific diameter dimensions providedWeight may be heavier than some compact models
Maximum output is a brief burst then steps down to half-brightnessSwitches require considerable force to activate constant on, less comfortable than older modelsWide beam angle reduces peak beam intensity and range compared to previous high-intensity variants
