Why we like these:
We all know Surefire is a trusted brand name when it comes to top tier performance and reliability. The Turbo Series is no exception, delivering impressive power in a compact, rugged package, and built to perform in the most demanding conditions.
The M640DFT Turbo Scout Light may have a lower lumen output compared to some competitors or even other SureFire models like the M640DF, but where it truly excels is in its impressive 100,000 candela rating. This higher candela translates to a tighter, more focused beam capable of reaching out much farther—making this light ideal for rifles.
Unlike lights that prioritize raw lumens for general brightness, the Turbo Series is engineered for intensity and throw, making it perfect for users who need a beam that cuts through the dark and keeps you in control at a distance.
If you're in the buy once, cry once crowd, looking for one of the best weapon lights on the market, the SureFire M640DFT should be at the top of your list.
