I've had a struggle over what light to keep by the bed for awhile. Had things like M2, M3, L5, G2, M6. They were always great lights that normally would excel at the task of a "by the bed light".
The problem for me is that my cat likes to abuse flashlights and slam them on the floor and smack them around. He means no harm, but I like to keep my lights in a like new condition if I can. The metal lights were always getting smacked down and I just couldn't have that anymore. Resided to having a G2 with P60 by the bed. Didn't like the lack of a pistol grip ring on it, but it was impervious to damage being Nitrolon material.
Then a couple days ago I remembered the G2Z and G2ZL. Knew it would be just what I was looking for - pistol grip ring, led (unbreakable), neck lanyard installed, reasonable bright. This light is the nicest combo of attributes for a defense light for use inside the house. Outside the M6 or such is what I would pick then.
Here are some pics of the C2, 6PL and G2ZL together. Weird thing is that the G2ZL has what seems to be an HA black bezel while the 6PL has a non HA black bezel that is much more shiny and glossy. Just found that interesting, as I was expecting a standard 6P bezel in black.
Super happy with this find. Won't be searching for another by the bed light for quite some time now. Thanks for listening to my rant!
