Im all into flashlights. I have a SF M900 on my m4gery. e2d in the truck, m3 stays with my pistol and a M6 just for the hell of it. But i have been looking at the hellfighter lights and they look pretty good. anyone have any experience with them??
Im thinking about the underboss for my xdm and maybe the x21 for my 20" AR. they look like good lightsand the price is excellent just dont know anything on them other than what their sight says

thanks for the help and pics would be good

The first X-8 I bought broke the first time I clicked the switch.  Its replacement squeeked when the switch was pressed, the light was dim and greenish, and the threads felt like their was sand in them.  
Here is a closeup photo of the poorly machined threads and low-grade O-rings, complete with dirty grease from the factory:

This has been covered before on a variety of forums - this brand has a dreadful reputation - perhaps one of the worst in the industry.
There are plenty of other brands worth checking out if you don't fancy sticking with the well-known mainstream ones.
