Thanks brother.

These have been discontinued for several years but are classics.It always surprises me when someone advertises models that have been out of production for many years.

I discovered today that these were manufactured in 2009.

I bought four Surefire 6P's for some lego builds and these were also built in 2009.

I'm really curious as to why these lights have been stored for six years.

The 6p is one of my most used old lights.

With some Malkoff love of course.

I hear you brother.

Here are SF 6P's with two Malkoffs on the left and two Sportac Triples one with XP-G2's and the other with Nichia 219's.

You should sell me one of them Malkoff 6ps. No need for two since they are tanks.

They're different models.One of the Malkoff's is a single mode M61LL.It's only 100 lumens but has 10.5 hours of run time.The other is a triple mode M61N-LMH which allows 15-80-375 lumens.

They are tanks but would also qualify as works of art.

Latest is still my Sunwayman V11R which is working out very well.

But now I want a 16340 and 14500 battery for it to get all the performance possible. Of course as long as I am going through all the hassle of getting a charger seems to reason I need some 18650 flashlight in my life.

Thinking a Olight S30 baton would fit the bill for only 30 bucks.

That one does look like excellent bang-for-buck. :tu:  Something similar to have a look at would be the Thrunite TN12.

That TN12 looks nice but I like the Olight ui and slightly brighter moonlight mode. 1 lumen is perfect for me. Plus the TN12 being a two switch light is a bit longer then the S30.

I did not see how much they sell for but I can't imagine it is less than the Olight.

I got some great deals from battery junction past 2 weeks, but I now have like 35 lihjts and its getting a bit ridiculous, will have to post some pics, but I got a Fenix E35 UE for about $31, Nitecore P12 about $37, And Jetbeam WL-S2 around $38. They all function slightly differently range 800-1000 lumens.

The Fenix has this huge broad hot spot, never seen anything so wide, its a great floodlight and u can access turbo from any mode and off.

Nitecore Is the brightest of the 3 has good accesorries in the package, had gotten an ec20 last year and wanted to see what its big brother could do and Im not dissappointed.

Jetbeam is XP-L, my first of these, has lots of battery options and changes modes in reverse from high to lower modes and lowest is 1 Lum moonlight

Im happy with all these, they offer something different from each other, but I have just too many now,will probably sell a few of my older models

The 2016 TN12 looks like a fantastic light.  I've also been looking at this particular light as I don't have anything like it.

Pleasantly surprised yesterday. Supply called and said they got new lights to issue to us. I figured it would be more of the cheapest light they could get that was made in America. I was wrong.





Surefire P3X Fury. It must be a pretty decent light based on the tan it gave me when I accidentally activated full power right in my face :D Also - I can't believe how expensive SF are. Glad I didn't have to pay for this monster.

Anybody got experience with this one?

I have one but I've replaced the body with a FiveMega 2x18650 body.

It has longer run times,compared to three 123 primaries and of course the 18650's are rechargeable.
