X300, X200A, X200B and M6 compared

[David Thomas]

All lights have a fresh set of batteries. I tried to take the pictures from the same position/distance, on the same camera settings, etc...

X200A on a Glock 17 (XS 24/7 Big Dots):





Here is the X200B on a G19 (XS 24/7 Big Dot sights) for additional comparison:





Insight M6 on a Glock 21 (warren tactical - front night sight) :

WOW!

That's quite a difference and I guess I know what I'm buying next. Thanks!

I am impressed with the X300.

From the picture, it looks like the X200B is the best light from an illumination of the target area.

However, I'm betting that the X300 is actually probably better, and the camera is unable to deal with the tremendous amount of white light in frame.

That is correct, if you come by the shop after dark I have my X200 and a X300 display unit that we can compare outside the building. The X300 BLOWS AWAY the X200 and it's cheaper!

I used to have the X200A, and sold it as soon as I got the 200B.

Now I have both the 200B and 300, and while I haven't done a side-by-side, I know the X300 lights up my hallways with more "punch" than the 200B.

The 200B is still plenty capable, but the 300 kills it. I just wanted to clarify what the pictures are showing, and what some people might conclude, despite the 300 doing much better in person.

Correct the 300 is much brighter. The glare on the door in the X300 picture is an indication of this fact. Notice that the 200B is not bright enough to cause the glare.

The X300 seems to be the best of both the 200B (flood) and 200A (spot) combined, and then made brighter.

I will try to take some pics outside tomorrow night.

Great post. I was ready to but a weapomlight and unsure of which. X300 inbound. I'

Looks to me that the 300 would be much more effective at both lighting up the area and blinding the subject while the 200B would do a nice job of lighting up the whole area.

I sold my 200A and have been waiting to see just how good the 300 will be.

Thanks for the review and pics!

It seems to me that the 200B really "shines" indoors, while the 300 is easily capable of illuminating threats outdoors.
