Let’s check out them-
Strength and Durability
The SureFire X400 Ultra is made of hard anodized aluminum to last long. It’s strong yet pretty lightweight. You can’t feel the weight when it’s mounted with a weapon. The torch is built in a way that you can use it for self-defense not only by flashing it to the attacker but also by hitting them with it in any close combat. This is strong and hard enough to hit a human body in case of self-defense without causing serious damage to the light.
Resistance
Apart from the metal structure, the light is equipped with O-ring, tempered window, and gasket seals that make the X400 fully waterproof and impact resistance for certain cases. It’s an all-weather condition tactical light that will provide brilliant illumination every time.
Illumination
The light can emit a maximum of 600 lumens that produces a bright white-light all around its focus. There are 3 different types of focusing sight- Green, Red, and IR. The versatile beam with the TIR lens shape will allow the light to focus on both – long and short range. The sight helps to make your target more visible to your eyes even in a foggy condition. Both the surefire x400 ultra green and surefire x400 ultra red will provide you the same illumination. The only difference is in their laser sight color.
Attachment On A Weapon
As the light is only 0.5 pounds weighty so it’s not a tough task to attach it to any weapon. It won’t create any extra weight or burden for the weapon user. Being so lightweight, it won’t affect the shooting range of the weapon. The integral T-Slot Mounting mechanism (aluminum made) will give a solid-rock attachment, no matter if its long gun or handgun. The only requirement is that the gun should be equipped with the MIL-STD 1913 rails.
Versatile and Easy To Use
The Surefire X400 is a versatile tactical flashlight. It can be used for various activities like general search, self-defense, law enforcement purpose, and military objects. The light comes with an ambidextrous switching located at the rear of the body. You can operate the switch with a single finger by pressing either side for momentary-on and flip up or down for constant-on. The momentary-on setting is specific for blinding the attacker. You can another switch located there at the rear of the light, which you can use for activating the white light only and laser sight only. For disabling the whole torch, you also have to use this switch. You can download the surefire x400 manual pdf for detail instruction. It’s pretty simple and easily written.
Pricing
It’s completely affordable for the purchasers. You can get the unit at a lower price than its competitors. People say it to be the cheaper version of Streamlight TLR-2. When it comes to justifying something like Surefire X400 vs Streamlight TLR-2, it becomes tough. Actually, the Streamlight TLR-2 is the best light, but not everybody can afford it. On the other hand, the Surefire X400 is best in its range. If you have enough money, then you can go for the TLR 2, otherwise, we suggest you get a SureFire X400.
