Great tactical flashlight
By Mickster
The Pelican M6 3W 2390 flashlight is a great piece of equipment. I got one from another retailer and was so happy with it that I decided to buy two more. I shopped around and, at the time, Amazon had the best price. However, the flashlights I received are the wrong color. I ordered black flashlights and received green ones (olive drab). The shipping took several days longer than I expected too. Also, be advised that Amazon continually adjusts their prices up and down. I paid $69.58 a piece for mine (1/3/2011), and the current price is $106.29. It's a good idea to shop around before you buy.

Another Great Pelican Product, Just don't drop it.
By Patrick
Been a fan of Pelican products for over twenty years. From lights to cases.I started using the 2400 Series Stealth Lite years ago because of its rugged design, approvals, (we are a military contractor), and of course the legendary Pelican Warranty. Although the 2400 is a great flash light, it sometimes is a little to Bulky to carry around. (Works great as a Hard Hat Lite, though)I started researching lights several months ago and decided on the 2390.Pros: The first thing out of the box is you notice the rugged construction. It's weight. It's compact size. This truly feels like a military grade compact flashlight.The touchy feely ends when you throw in the batteries and turn it on. Wow!!! This is one bright, long throwing flashlight. Like an idiot I actually turned the light and looked at the illumination. Instant blindness for a few seconds. I could see this being a major assist for a Cop or Military person wanted to stop a bad guy in his tracks.In fact my neighbor and good friend who is a cop and officer in the military came over and checked out the light at night. As he said, "Hands down the best flashlight he had every used." I had a hard time prying it from his hands when he went home.The ballistic belt holster with extra battery compartment is a big plus. Easy access to the light and you always have a spare set of batteries on hand when you need them. May not seem like much but when your crawling around in complete darkness and your light starts to go dead those spare batteries can be complete life saver.Finally the truly great feature of this light is how bright it is. I have been forced in the last few days to use my StealthLight 2400, (see cons below) and to compare the difference, well its like illuminating a room with the sun vs. using a candle.Cons:The Lithium batteries that come with the light,.... A joke. They lost the Lumens Ummph... at around twenty minutes of operation. (That's not continuous. That's my estimate of actually usage time)I did a lot of battery research when the lumen value dropped. Turns out that others have done the research for us on batteries. Surfire seems to be the hands down winner on Lithium CR123 battery design and manufacturing. Cheapest place to buy them... Direct from Surefire.Bought a box of twelve for $21.00 from Surefire. On the net the same box runs from $28.00 to $34.00. The Surfire batteries work great in these flashlights. What ever you do, order extra batteries on the net. Lithium CR123 batteries at the store will run you around $5.00 to $6.00 apiece, Ouch!!! Trust me you don't want to be in a jam and need batteries at the last minute.This light has no approvals, for example; CSA- Class I, Div. 2; Gp ABCD, T3C; Class ll; Div. 2; Gp G,; FM- Class I, Div. 2; Gp. ABCD, T3A.; MSHA 10C-633-0; ETL - Class I, Div. 1, GP.D, CL.I, Zone 1, GP. IIA OPEhttp://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ywXEBDc8wXY/UIgSNm9uSTI/AAAAAAAACTw/dhsuaECW9r4/s1600/rating.png TEMP. CLASS T3 CONFORMS TO STD.This probably stems from the Lithium batteries and the heat generated from the bulb more then anything. It can be a problem for certain industries when these approvals are required for use. For example Fire Fighting. Combustable confined areas, etc....The Big Con.I dropped my flashlight from around three to four feet in height directly onto a concrete floor at a job sight the other day. The light hit at a perfect angle on the corner of the lens hood. The hood split from its machine threads that screw into the battery compartment base. Looking at it the threaded portion of the hood is very thinly machined aluminum. Big bummer because I have gotten used to the flashlight, and now I am forced to use a 2400 Stealth light while I warranty the unit. Like I said earlier its like using a candle vs. the sun. Thank god for Pelicans Warranty!!!Conclusion:After getting this light and using it for at least four months, on an almost daily basis I would not trade it for anything. In fact as I have done with Leatherman products in the past all buy an extra one or two as backups when something breaks.All get some of the tactical Accessories for example the gun mount. I see this light as a great tool while hunting at night.I will also be buying these for my service guys. Frankly if the thing did not come with a belt holster I could bet one of my guys would have conveniently borrowed it by now. ;)

By sdl
I have owned a Pelican M6 LED light for the last five an a half years. I've used it a lot. It's also taken a lot of abuse. I've dropped, hit, scratched and dinged it so many times I've lost count (it's also been submerged in water and one time assisted in breaking a window). The light keeps shining. The only recourse from the abuse I've dished out is the switch would break. But luckily, even with a broken switch, the light would still work (It just wouldn't stay switched on. I'd have to hold the button down).Best part was, the LIFETIME WARRANTY. I shoot a quick e-mail to Pelican, and they practically overnight me the part I need to get my light working correctly again.This time, I bought two. (Keep in mind the first still works, I plan on attaching these new lights to my guns). They came. Brighter and better constructed than the first. The first saved mt butt on more than one occasion. So far, with the performance of these, they will probably be more than capable of doing it again.Also, for reference, the batteries that came with it weren't some cheap off brand. They were Duracell. It also came with a black nylon case, not something I needed, but something that anyone else who didn't have one might find useful. It attaches at the belt and snaps closed.Only critique, amazon listed the only color available as "OD Green", I wanted black. But since they were going on my guns I didn't care. The Package came, both lights were black. I can't complain though. I got exactly what I wanted.
