I've been wanting to add another light to my collection so, I picked up a Surefire 6P the other day. I got home and took it out of the box and fired it up...and it's one of the dimmest lights I've ever seen. I have a 6V Streamlight that's at least ten times brighter. My little Insight X2 is also much, much brighter. I replaced the batteries and looked for any signs of a problem but, I can't find anything wrong with the light. Anyone else have this kind of problem with a 6P or are they supposed to be this dim?

I have owned several 6P's and carried one for years. All were bright as day and never gave me a single problem. I would try replacing the batteries again or verify that the batteries you are replacing are new. If that doesn't work then you may have a bad bulb. Contact Surefire and they will make it right.

I don't own a 6P, but have a G2 and other comprable lights. They are blindingly bright. If it's dim, something is wrong. Contact Surefire.

[Screehopper]

Agreed. Contact Surefire.

Cause the 6P is definitely not a dim light.

[Mr. Two Guns]

Thanks folks...I'll give them a call and see what happens.

[Mr. Two Guns]

They said I probably got a bad bulb...they are sending me a new one. :)

I really like the c/s from Surefire. They're great! Also, I have a few diff't units from them, from a G2, Z2, L2 and probably something coming for my RRA AR. They make good quality stuff!

My G2 & 6P put out so much light I sometimes don't point them forward, but up, as the reflection ruins my night vision.

Did you check the batteries anyway?

From his post, looks like he did.

I'm on my third P60 Lamp Assembly. The first two were deffective. I don't trust the P60. But, thats me, ALOT of other people and LEOs/military/swat/whatever have used thiers with absolutely no problems at all. Appearently I just have really bad luck.
