Very awesome light. i have 2 and will be buying more. - Holosun P.ID Cree LED Weapon Light

I'll start with all the great. The light pattern and color look every bit as good as the tlr1 hl, maybe even better in some aspects. I personally thing it looks better than the tlr. I personally don't like huge bright white branding on things so this holosun wins there. It's a front load 18350 (flat top, not button top) battery that you could easily swap out of necessary, but the ease of charging with the light still on the weapon is a fantastic touch. They got the only good aspect of the olights and put it on this light. I even like the switches. I may like the toggle style of the tlr a little better, but pressing in instead of down really isn't that big of a deal. I'll take these switches 11 times out of 10 over the crappy x300u switches that are so stiff that it's almost aggravating at how hard they are to activate (i tried multiple x300's and they're all the same). Now for the only negative with this holosun light. There is a half second delay in actually shutting off after you release the button. Not the biggest deal, but that could be a refinement they work on for gen2. I have also had the light not activate if i half heartedly press the switch. I could feel it "click" but i still didn't press hard enough to actually activate. The switch shouldn't "click" if the light won't activate. And it's not just this one. I bought the HC model too and it's exactly the same.

Basically, these are my new pistol light choice. Can't wait for the gen2 when they correct the little nitpicks. Then there will be nikki question about what the best option is.
