This is a great flash light. The memory control is a great feature since it remains on the same setting until you change it. It has replaced my Surefire e2dl as my EDC for this reason though it is slightly larger. It is also brighter. Time will tell if it is as durable.

Pros:  various mode selectable, good strobe mode, useful for self defense.
Cons:  Shaped tailcap makes the momentary on a little bit difficult, in my country 123 batteries is very expensive.
Would recommend:  yes

Why have a flashlight for reading, one for indoor, another for outdoor... And again one for self defense, if you can have all this in just one flashlight? This is the question tk15 will answer! I was not really a fan of fenix lights after trying this one. it's great. I use the low mode for reading and for "romantic" purposes, the medium for indoor when light goes out. The high is perfect for outdoor and the turbo mode will defend nicely against an aggressor even in daylight. Strobe is great for my work (ambulance service) so I think this was one of my best purchase.

I have been running Fenix T21's and T20's on all my rifles for a couple of years now with no issues or malfunctions. I decided to give the TK15 a try on a lighter weight AR15 build that I just finished to save a few ounces. Yes I know there are much lighter options our there but not ones that provide over 200 Lumens. All I can say is that this light rocks! Fenix lights are extremely well made and in my opinion offer the best value without much if any sacrifice in durability. The TK15 easily illuminates paper targets out to 200 yards at night and is so bright the beam itself could be used to temporarily blind an attacker. The only issues that I have with this light are that Strobe mode wont save like the other modes for instant activation. Also the mode button itself is hard to find, in a perfect world I would like it to be a little higher and knurled or at least have a raised rim surrounding it. Still I prefer a selector button that sets the beam mode as opposed to having to push your way ...

Pros:  Mega Lumens in a small package, inexpensive, lots of settings including strobe
Cons:  At the time of this review there wasn't a weapons remote switch available for it, the strobe function is a separate button near the lens. During an emergency you might lose track of its location
Would recommend:  yes

I agree with an earlier review ... it's the best tactical light for the money. Extremely well made, bright, very adjustable, and has a strobe function. I do feel a little guilty about buying a Chinese light but, honestly, there's very little if anything these days that's 100% American made. This light costs a fraction of the price of the American options and offers more functions and lumens.
