I want to see them reviewed side by side, with a thousand or more rounds fired with them mounted, dropped in the mud, buried in the sand, submerged in water, dropped on concrete from a height of 50 feet, etc., etc. I want to really know if the X300 is actually worth spending over 2x as much as the TLR-1s on.
I won't own anymore Streamlights due to bad experiences with the older M3 and crappy customer service on Streamlights part. But I will say the X300's I own have held up to thousands of rounds of .223 on my patrol rifle and the same on my duty handgun (was a 45 acp now a Glock 9mm) I don't take the light off at all when I am trianing or shooting matches. It stays on. That killed my former stream light purchases. So yes its worth the price.
