Utg Light - flashlight, airsoft


simply amazing it comes with a remote pressure switch, batteries, two different end pieces one solid and one that has the remoet pressure switch.

From my room window was able to shine the light on a street sign about 140-150 ft away at night. Amazing for night-time airsoft games or something along those lines

This is a good quality light, well built, and it throws a good beam. Mounts securely and the pressure switch works well. The twist on switch is a little disappointing but it works. The price was very reasonable. The only big negative is that it uses unusual camera batteries. I try to standardize on AA and AAA batteries and now I need to keep 123A camera batteries. Other than that this is a great light for the money.

so i bought this mainly because of the price.. it is an alright light,the actual lght is ok, it could be better. (lights about 15 or so ft in front you), has a nice mount for Picatinny rail. low profile stays close to your rifle and properly secures with two screws,got positive points for that. uses the same batteries as my surefire, which is cool because i have extra ones. comes with a push button and a pressure switch(which was the reason for buying)the only thing that i had a proble was that i boutgh it for the UAG Tactical 5 Position Folding Ergonomic Grip http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0040V8DX6 , which has the are for the pressure switch inserts but did not fit..so i had to put a little electrical tape around the grip to secure the pressure switch. overall its ok. good if on a budget but if your willing to spend some coin i would suggest buying a better one.

I bought this a long time ago I would have rather a AAA or AA and handheld, but this is very good otherwise.

Only rates a 95 lumens batteries seem to last a while I think utg says 3hrs use.

only uses cr123a lithium not sure if it will take a liion that would be spendy but nice in the long run.

intended use is on a mid to large carbine or rifle airsoft paintball or the real mckoy.

is shock resistant and rather beefy as is common with utg they make stuff that lasts.

I may do a video review later but as it stands a good light good price cr123a lights are an investment if you use it expect to buy 6-10 a year at $3-$6 a battery.

the light looks good feels good and is easy to put the pressure switch on. the light was brighter than i expected for a cheap light it mounted on my ak easy and locked on tight. the first time the light was in need was in a fairly dark room the light worked just as it should puting out a bright beam centered with the barrel but with a full auto blast of prob. about 4 rounds the light went out, lucky i was with a squad clearing a room and the others also had lights. since the ak is my backup that has a side folder and short barrel i ideally use this for CQC. once back to the FOB i dissassembled the light checking for the prob. the buld showed good but after testing with another that was the problem i could get another bulb from leapers for 1.95 but if this happens every time i use it then i might as well quit depending my life on a cheapo an fork out the money for a surefire or something like it. all in all if you use this light with airsoft or small caliber cartridges its great but rapid fire large cal. guns not so much

This tactical flashlight is a very good buy for the price. It does the job and cost less than the other tactical flashlights out there, so if you're looking for a budget, this flashlight is probably one that you might want to look up. I don't like the fact that this gun isn't led, but its the best bang for the buck, so I'm not going to complain. I would recommend this to anyone who is playing an airsoft game especially for the cqb bcuz this accessory is a great addition.

Bought this from Amazon Wharehouse Deals--I guess the "deal" is you might have parts missing from your product. The pressure switch was nowhere to be found. Complete lack of care and attention to detail--when I reported this to Amazon, they basically said "send it back and order another one". Seriously? How sad. - Picatinny - Utg Light - Airsoft - Flashlight'
