Elzetta and SF 6PX get shot (..by a shotgun), thrown at steel plates

Not much to say really. Just watch. oo:

Makes me feel good about my M61...

Always thought my elzetta was tough. I guess this proves it.

I may have to buy one of these...

Now that's a torture test. Maybe it's time to add an Elzetta to my collection....hmmm:thinking:

Yeah, that Elzetta is about the toughest light I have yet seen. Really amazing.

amazing i didn,t know that the malkoff,s leds where that tough :thumbsup:

Very very impressive, but I knew 00 buck would eat right through it - and it did.

Should we change the saying to tough as Elzetta now???

I've always maintained that the Elzetta host was under-rated. This video should help its profile. It also speaks volumes for the Malkoff modules.

:wow: i really want a Malkoff with strobe but he never produce one :wave:

Have to change my definition of a "bulletproof" light from SF to Elzetta +Malkoff

Its a shame the Elzetta wont take 18650s.

That Elzetta head is THICK!!! SF bezels fold like thin tin cans.

But it's really just as much that Malkoff dropin as the host

The Elzetta is available with a high/strobe tailcap as well as a high/low.......

I've read reports of other members "boring out" their Elzetta to fit 18650's..........

Just returned my Elzetta last week. First I was underwhelmed by the output of the M60 and second the two stage high/low tailcap did not work as advertised. That is, on my unit it had to be fully tightened to be on high, a VERY very slight turn and it was back to low mode. Just too easy in my opinion to switch it to low- my Fenix TK11 is much more positive in this regard. I emailed the company and they said what I described was "normal". I'm not bashing it as it seemed very well made/durable and I may pick up the single mode model in future but wish they were a little more honest about how the two mode tailcap works. Perhaps the single mode with the newer M61 module would be a better fit for me?

Interesing...I wander how an E1L (or compact TIR SF) would hold up to that torture test? Solid light though, and American made!

The Elzetta pays for that durability with the extra weight. Yes, you can hammer nails with it - but if I have to resort to using a flashlight to hammer nails, I have bigger problems.

The Surefire host combines reasonable durability with a comfortable weight to carry - the idea of carrying an Elzetta on my belt or on my vest makes me cringe.

I'll take that as an option to own one.
Thanks.
And thanks to my wallet.
