Jake and I compare the SureFire Scout light to the Tacticon Battle torch V3 and see if the extra $540 is worth the spend.

It all started with purchasing a 20$ battle belt from you guys two years ago. Still rocking it and barely had even any fraying on the stitching. You guys are an absolute savior for the everyday citizen who wants to be able to train and be ready, and still be able to feed their family. All the money you guys save people on the other stuff, can help someone get that little tier upgrade in the rifle they purchase, or like you said get more mags and ammo. Y’all’s content, humor, and passion for this is awesome. My next build will be fully kitted with tacticon. Thanks for what you do. 🤙🏽

Nice what you guys are doing.

I agree with you guys, I've had to come off the Gucci stuff a little bit. My big thing with cheap stuff is QC, but so far your stuff has been fine. I have your belts, backpack, and slings, as well as other brands. There are differences like camo resolution, reflective properties, cordura rigidity, zipper quality, Paracord type, etc. But I'm not at the point in my training where those things matter so it's preference at that point. I'll continue to buy, I support your cause. You guys are like the Palmetto State Armory for gear.

when looking for an optic, tacticon was kind of my only option. I’m a little broke and spending $500 on an optic for my $600 rifle was not something I wanted to do. So I got one of their optics for around $140-$150 I believe and it’s absolutely amazing! I may not beat my rifle up too hard but I’m going on a camping trip here soon where I’m going to be putting in some training with my rifle and I gotta say I’m glad to have a tacticon optic and I think it’ll serve me we’ll be it day or night

For some people reliability and durability is of utmost importance and justifies the extra $$$. Performance and battery life isn't everything in a flashlight. The quality of the driver, led, lens, contact points (springs), housing, threads and switches makes a difference. Sure fire products are a standard because they are very reliable and durable, but even their remote switches wear out if used a lot (seen it many times). Also, there are other lights like arisaka, modlite and cloud defensive that perform better than surefire and are said to retain the same durability. There are also budget options like streamlight which are proven to be very durable and reliable. The cloud defensive rein takes it an extra step at 400$ with bombproof 3mm lens, ipx8 waterproof, massive springs, stable and powerful driver led combo pumping out 1250 lumens at 100 000 candela and the remote switch, mount, samsung 30q battery and charger is included. All these things matter if you take your gear out in the woods and expose them to the elements. The cold of northern canadian winters can render a shitty chinesium flashlight useless especially if its 18650 is also chinesium and the voltage drops. Even high quality flashlights with decent Korean or Japanese cells can run into issues with the voltage drops. The model of battery is even more important than the flashlight in my experience in extreme cold. That's why I use Molicel P26A 18650s in the winter they perform down to -40C. This is the same reason why I trust something like an aimpoint t2 or trijicon acog. I don't really see much for specs on this flashlight. With such limited information and reviews on your products it's hard to buy one of these. What's the waterproof rating? What's the operating temperature range? What model of 18650 cell is provided? What's the spot beam angle and spill angle? I doubt you can provide this info but what type of driver and led is used? Is it direct drive all the way or is the output thermally regulated?

In the early 80s, I was a member of a military high-speed low-drag unit and we had access to the best equipment and gear that was available at the time which compared to what members of that same unit have available to them today wasn't even close. So I appreciate all the advancements that have been made in the firearm community. Even some of the gear that folks make jokes about are better than the gear we had. I am by nature one who likes to buy the best bang for the buck I am a huge fan of Tacticon the only thing I will spend extra money on is barrels but to be honest I have spent money on Gucci gear in the past simply because I could afford to. But now that I am in my 60's I have come to realize that I am not ever going to war and even if there is an SHTF scenario here in America I am going to do everything responsible to avoid getting into any gunfight so to me I don't need battle proven gear especially when there are products made of the same materials for much less.

I’m gonna be completely honest, I appreciate what you guys are trying to do by trying to bring out decent equipment for a decent price, but I have to ask the simple question, which is where are your lights made, because I can almost guarantee you that they are made in the same Chinese factory that I bought my replica surefire that I use on my Airsoft rifle, which ain’t a bad thing necessarily, but trying to market it at the same level as a surefire is just being disingenuous, now don’t get me wrong, I might buy one to only use on my Airsoft rifle because I think it would be great for that, but if I’m going to buy a rifle light, I’m more likely going to go for the Streamlight Protac than your product, but again, not saying any of this to be an ass, but simply saying it as my opinion based on my observations.

Guys - yes but not quite. You did not do a side by side comparison filming the performance, beam pattern, etc. Lumens is ONE of the parameters, what about candela and the others? Lights is something you could easily do, and SHOULD do, a real comparison. Could the SF be a little better? Sure, still probably not worth the extra hundreds. But how far can you illuminate with yours vs SF? What is the light pattern? Etc. On paper everything sounds great... For a bunch of other brands too! (Currently have a couple stream lights and an olight Odin, which is an absolute beast. I'll buy one yours too if you do a side by side and it's not way off from a surefire. If it's not, you'll sell more. If it's way off... Well then this video is not accurate making all these claims?)

You are right, that was a big oversight on my part in the editing room. I will for sure do better in the future on that end and thank you for bringing that to my attention. I will work on getting a side by side up soon. To add on here, part of what we are saying is, we appreciate surefire and their innovation, and if I was doing some of the gnarly stuff tier 1 boys are doing, I would want something that is absolutely bomb proof. I'm not doing that though and probably never will. Just trying to shed some light on other options and that for the majority of people spending money on training is the better option. I appreciate your comment and will take a lot of that into account for future videos! Thanks again ~ Nolan

And you looked at the one time they weren't having a 40-60% off sale? Yeah don't get me wrong kind of a sleazy way to sell stuff mark it up to mark it down but I've been on their website and seen them not having a "sale".

7:25 i dunno guys. Maybe the rest of the video will convince me. But I've used quite a few asian made lights, and they just dont stand up to recoil over time. The pressure pads usually leave quite a bit to be desired as well. I love that yall are bringing new products to market, but you can do it without shatting (yes, shatting) on other brands. I killed an o light (completely died after 700 rounds), the replacement for that was a streamlight which had a flickery pressure pad and now finally the surefire that has been chugging along now 1400 rounds in.

I love that you guys are making affordable gear for the average firearm owner that wants to actually train. I recently purchased your light and an LPVO because of the insane sale you had. That being said, I’ve also made a commitment to purchase as much American made products this year as possible (it’s surprisingly difficult). I know your nylon and plates are made in the USA. Will Tacticon Armament ever commit to making the rest of your products in the US? I’m not trying to start shit, just an honest question.

I look at it like this. Everyone has to go to work, but some jobs have higher value. Everyone needs a ride to work, but someone is spending $2 on a bus pass and someone is spending $200K on a luxury sports car. Everyone needs to eat, but someone is eating ramen noodles and someone is eating wagyu beef steaks. All of these things accomplish the same thing but at different price points. Sure you can say the more expensive stuff does it a little bit better or has some that the cheaper one doesn’t, but it still gets the job done. Great work guys. I just picked up one of your chest rigs and was on here looking at your lights as well. Probably gonna be picking one up soon.

I saw the video title and have never heard of you guys before seeing the title. However I'd appreciate it if you updated the title to reflect the current price instead of the old one that you list in the title. A basic breakdown on the differences with candela between lights in the same category as your light would be awesome.

This is such a big deal and I'm glad it's being addressed. I will confess, I have purchased surefire and modlite knock offs from aliexpress. And guess what? After thousands of rounds, not a single issue with any of them. They take the same batteries, they mate up to the same mounts, they take the same heads and tail cap adapters. It's also a white light. It's not an optic, it's not an IR laser module, it just needs to do the bright-bright when I boop the button, and I haven't had any problems with the knock offs I've purchased. I'm going to order your light because A.) it's surely going to be better quality, but most importantly, B.) because I want to support your mission. I think it's great what you guys are doing.

Honestly, knew nothing about you guys when I purchased it off Amazon, got my order and haven’t really thought about it much since, but recently saw your videos start popping up on my RU-vid and just absolutely love what you guys stand for. Looking forward to picking up some more of your guys gear in the future. Just had my first kid a couple of months ago, so right now any money I can spare on any of this stuff is reserved for ammo, as that’s more important, but once the wife is back to work and bringing and income again, I won’t hesitate to pick some stuff up! Been peepin that killer deal you’ve got on the plate carrier and plates you’re running!

The reason i bought surefire m640df is because i know their reputation for durability and longevity. I see it no different than having to buy a good quality light one time rather than buying multiple lights throughout my lifetime and your getting a proven track record from top tier companies. Plus, you get a surefire sticker. Although I gotta say i love what tacticon is doing and your mission. I bought a plate carrier for my son a few years ago from you guys and you send a HANDWRITTEN note in the package and i loved that touch of hospitality.

I think you may be right my friend. However there's confirmation biased involved. Unless he has true humility he may find things that validate his past opinions instead of keeping an open mind when doing his testing. That is the only thing that would concern me. Although I am confident that most of what we make can hold its own against most of what he uses, if he edits the video to conform to his beliefs it could do more harm to our brand than good. I think we have to get more established to do something like that. But that's just my opinion, doesn't make me right. I do appreciate the insight and I will consider it

@@TacticonArmament Given the philosophy of wanting regular people to have life saving equipment to use when it counted, I hope more in the industry would give brands like you a chance, especially in the training space. On another note, question…how compatible are these lights with other products that seem similar. Will other heads, tail caps, tape switches interface with these lights? Not using night vision right now but some duel use tape switches to connect night vision and the light are useful and just wondering if that was something that you were thinking about when putting these together. Love all your products that I’ve purchased!

Heck I bought a complete kit from Jenn at LTD year ago rated LV4 for maybe 40 buck more. And plus I've bought alot more since from her company as well from yall. And to note everything I've gotten from her since yall have a great relationship between yalls company and also everything I've gotten from yall has held up better then the other guy's products. For the last year a big group of us patrol the south texas border along with the officers..leaving it at that.. and we go thru thick mesquite tree's and other thorny bushes. Between everything I have of your brand not a damn thing has failed or even came under stitched compared to a few guy's that bought into the got to have this brand thats 100 times more expensive and it's junk,falling apart, seems coming undone..ect.. so yeah I can vouch for yalls stuff 100 percent it holds up to the miles of abuse and training I do without any issues. Best part is I'm setting nice with extra money in pockets from not buying into the whole got to have brand BS while I hear the buddies complain having to 2nd mortgage a house to AKA Keepin Up With The Jones as they say. Thankfull for yall and Jenn at LTD helping us non rich people have a fighting chance keepin us safe without breaking the bank.

Not 100% on Surefire Weapon mounted lights longevity while mounted on weapons through combat, but I beat the crap out of them at work Commercial Refrigeration and HVAC. Time after time they keep running. Have Surefires that are 15yrs old that still function correctly. They've been through prolonged -40 Freezers, 115F spaces, dropped from 2 stories yada yada. Only thing I replace on them are batteries, seals and tail caps when they bust. If my life depended on my torch functioning when the time comes, it's Surefire all the way. I'd love to watch an extensive torture test on the lights alone and then on their accessories.

Nightforce scopes are worth the price because of the manufacturing process being pretty much unique to them. They're also durable to the point where you can hammer a pack of nails into a stump and put it back on a gun and it retains zero. But the average person doesn't need a scope you can beat someone to death with.
