Great light,sturdy, but programmability is a misnomer. - Cloud Defensive Light Control System w/Streamlight ProTac Rail-Mount HLX 1000 Lumen LCS Series

The light is great, the mount is great, and none of this will ever rattle off the rail. The 1000 lumen strobe is disorienting down range, the high mode reaches far and the low setting works like a standard flashlight. All this is exactly as it should be and I couldn't be happier with it.

But the programmability of the unit is not like you think it is. What it really is, is 3 different preprogrammed settings that dictate what functions are activated when you tap, tap + hold, and double-tap+hold the thumb bar. None of the preprogrammed settings allow for all three functions to be used in the same setup.

What I would much prefer to have seen is a 3-zone bar and no programs *at all.* One for high, one for low, and one for high strobe, and nothing more. The rest is just clumsy. That's the only reason why I did not give it five stars.
