OK, guys - here's the deal.
I want to get a relatively inexpensive light that will be used MAINLY for IR illumination in conjunction with my NV scope.
As much as I would like the Surefire M6 with IR filter, I can't swing that kind of cash.
The light I get must be mountable on my AR-15 rifle - it has Pic rails all along the handguards.
what do you think of these?

Seems like about 250 lumens - true, it is a bit larger and heavier than comparable lumen Surefires, but the price is incredible and they are rechargeable. I think I could probably deal with the extra weight and bulk if I could get great performance like this.
Do the Streamlights also hold up OK to recoil from guns?
Also, I wonder what type of mounting systems are available for the Stinger lights?
