The Ol Boy Roy's Review of Cloud Defensive OWL LED Weaponlight
It is a very simple setup. The ability to switch the light from left to right is a nice feature, though I kept it in right hand configuration. In the years that I have had it,it has not failed me once as long as I check the batteries from time to time. Good throw. Gives me all the light I need for defense encounters. However, one of the issues with having the switch design to sit on the rail next to the light is that it can limit your options if you intend to run other devices like IR iluminators/designator. It can also limit how far you can have your light near the end of the rifle since the switch needs to be close enough to your hand to be comfortably activated. I have it on a CMMG Banshee with an 8" barrel, so it works fine for my needs. But it won't please everyone. It is also a little on the heavy side. If I had to be completely honest, it is a tad pricey for what it does. It does make up for most of it with its easy design, batteries that allow you to recharge, and sheer ruggedness. If you want something simplistic, reliable, and possibly for a short setup, this would be a sound choice. But it won't be ideal for every role.
