My 400 lumen HSP WML is $120 new (got mine new but 2nd hand for $75) and it weighs 4.8oz!!
My Streamlight ProTac is 625 lumen, 4.3oz with all the mounts, and $110 (I also paid $80). This light is actually too bright for a lot of things. The smaller 350 lumen model was what I should’ve gotten. Too much splash back and reflection off of things due to the brightness
My M951 will likely go into a box In the near future. My handheld single AAA micro stream is almost as bright as the SF M951 and it weighs ONE OUNCE
