Good lights, decent run time, and output. A bit on the spendy side IMO. At the $300 price range I prefer an x300ultra but that's just me.
If it is a stay at home defensive pistol, I would keep the lumens under 200. You may risk blinding yourself as I have done in multiple night shooting drills. Also a good wide beam is preferable to a conical centralized beam. Wide beams allow for a faster full room sweep with less activations of the light.
Side note, I would use a standard hand held flashlight as my "go to" while keeping the pistol light exclusively for use when there is a known threat. Heard horror stories of college kids sneaking in late to do laundry or raid there parents fridge and drawn or fired on.
good call. I would hate to have to point my gun at something just to illuminate it! I have a flash light next to the bed now, but the cat likes to batt at things that roll if I dont tie it down!
I keep an Xc1 on my "bedside" g19, it's a great light with a intuitive momentary switch but honestly it costs about twice what it should. My go-to middle of the night light is an eagletac p20a2 which was a fraction of the price and lights up the room just the same.
That being said, the xc1 looks like it was designed for a g19 and performs just the same; flawlessly.
