In the world of “tactical” flashlights, it’s hard to beat the simple, robust and reliable design of Surefire lights. However, the quality you get from a Surefire comes with a steep price tag that many of us find hard to justify. Luckily, there are now many lower priced alternatives that offer great performance and value at a fraction of the price. In this review, we will take a look at the Techlite Lumen Master LED that I recently purchased at Costco for an amazing $15 a pair (after instant $5 rebate). I will compare it side-by-side with one of my favorite Surefire lights, the E2D Executive Defender.
