Title: incandescent bulbs are kind of annoying
Review: I have had this light about 2 years. I have 2 other Surefires, and had one other that got stolen. I think they are great flashlights. They are all bright and feel really well made.The only problem I have had with this light, and other Surefire lights is sometimes the bulbs don't last long. Surefire says the bulbs should last about 30 hours depending on how they are used. The 225 lumen bulb on my M3 lasted through about 2 or 3 sets of batteries over the course of a year. Batteries last about 20 minutes with that bulb, so I guess I got maybe an hour of use out of it? That bulb is about $30. I was kind of annoyed about that. With one of my other Surefires, the bulb went out after being dropped. These bulbs are expensive. My next Surefire will be LED.
