      Comments about 5.11 Tactical ATAC L1 Flashlight:

      I carry this light every day for work (as a full time operator for law enforcement) and off duty. It is small enough to fit in any pocket, very bright, multiple outputs of light, easy to use, and durable. Can't say enough about this light. I have used ALOT of different handheld and weapon mounted lights over the years in the military and law enforcement and this one is my favorite right now. Flashlight technology has changed a lot over the last few years and this is currently at the top of the pack. Love 5.11 lights.

        Comments about ATAC L1 Flashlight:

        I've had this product for well over 6 months. I carry it every where with me. Fits in and on anything you need it to. Has a high setting (Brightest 173 Lumens) Low setting (Average 14 lumens) and a strobe for giving people seizures... Not really though. But I love this thing man. What I really dig is how you can either 'click' it on or just hold the button down for a quick look around or 'flash'.

            I wasn't going to review this light but I now feel compelled.

            I bought this light as a backup light for use on duty. I had this light for about a month and thought it was awesome. One night while in the middle of a vehicle search my main light went down so I went to my backup. Click...click. Nothing. I figured the battery had died so I grabbed a new one, still nothing. I sent an email off to 511 and they sent me a new tail switch. That still didn't work. I let them know and haven't heard anything back for a few weeks now. I guess I'll have to go with a Streamlight or a Surefire for a backup.

            I know products fail from time to time, which is too bad because this light is compact and super bright, the perfect backup...

            Comments about ATAC L1 Flashlight:

            I asked for an EDC light for Christmas, I received a different brand, I didn't even take it out of the package because I could tell it was too big for my front pocket. I was then given the okay to go and choose my own. After a lot of looking around, I figured I'd give this light a shot. Most of the 5.11 online reviews are positive that I could see so I wasn't afraid to give it a shot. I've been carrying it about 8 weeks now, and I have no major complaints. It fits in my front left pocket with a lighter and chapstick quite comfortably. I love the size/power ratio. The battery is still good from two months of EDC use.

            Two cons I've come across so far, the belt clip although solid, and probably designed for a tac vest, will not clip to the brim of a hat so that it can be used as a head lamp. Would be nice if the clip was reverseable or something. Second con, the power/function switch requires super fast clicks to change the power/strobe modes. With cold or tired hands this can be difficult. Maybe a secondary mode switch could be installed.

            Overall I think it's a quality product worth the $. If I remember I will post a 1 year review if anything changes.
