I just
wanted to say that I just finished basic training in the Israeli
Army, and I can easily say that the most useful thing I took with me
was my white Photon light. It was with me all the time, both in the
tents, and out in the field, it was always extremely useful. The
Photon is amazing it’s still running on the original batteries I got
it with a few months ago. It is super durable it withstood sand,
water and basic training.

My
daughter is in the Army station overseas, before she left she wanted
to know if she could have the four Photon lights we owned. We asked
her why and she said she just had a feeling she would need them.
When the USS Cole was attacked the base where she is stationed went
on full alert and out went the electricity. She lives in the
barracks with 100 other military members and she said that chaos
broke out, no one knew what was happening and everyone feared the
worst with sirens blaring. She fumbled in the dark and found the
photon lights under her bed. She handed one to the person next to
her and brought light to the situation.

My name
is Sergeant First Class Paul Ninelist. I am on M1A1 armor Platoon
Sergeant leading 4 tanks and 16 soldiers in Iraq in support of
Operation Iraqi freedom.
We have used and loved your Photon II’s.
The compact size and versatility of your lights have helped us
perform and accomplish many missions. It is much preferred over the
standard Army “L” shaped flashlights.
In closing thank you for your support and patriotism that you have
shown our soldiers by providing this fine flashlight. It has never
failed us on any occasion.
Yours truly

My name
is Dan Kohlstrom. I’m a Staff Sergeant on the Operational Detachment
Alpha or “A” team in 1st Battalion, 1st Special Forces Group in
Okinawa Japan. Let me say first myself and the guys on my team (all
10 of ‘em) love your lights. We have them everywhere. They are on
dog tags, attached to map cases, on zipper pulls, just all over. So
much light from such a little source means a lot when you carry as
much weight as we do.
Also – we just read about your Fusion headlights – WOW!!! You
wouldn’t happen to have a demo or two of those lying around that
you’d like to have field tested by some Green Berets would you?
Gotta ask – that is just such a nice looking light!
And finally, please keep up the good work! Your lights rock! We saw
that you now have IR lights – and we are diligently trying to talk
our chain of command into getting us some. Thanks a bunch for making
us such excellent lights!
Sincerely,
D. Kohlstrom

I
received my package yesterday and I want to say…THANK YOU! The new
Fusion headlights are – well, words don’t describe it. It totally
smokes anything that we have on the team. The red light on the
headlight – what a super idea – that will be very useful.

I am
soldier, and my hobbies include SCUBA diving and mountaineering. The
Photon Micro-light has lightened my load by serving four functions.
1: Flashlight 2: Headlamp 3: Rescue Strobe 4: Marking light. I’m
heading off to Bosnia soon and you can bet I’ll be taking several
Photons with me

Two days
before I shipped out to Kuwait some friends of mine in the Navy told
me about your light so I went into town and bought a Photon II. It
worked great. Your light helps me greatly with the many patients I
see in the field over here.
Thanks for your help and support

At the
moment my platoon and I are beginning our deployment in Afghanistan.
Things are going great for the most part with a few minor problems.
One in particular you can help us with. My Platoon is a big
supporter of your product because of the length of time it last and
the brightness that it shines. Apparently everybody in Afghanistan
feels the same way because your product is SOLD OUT in every Post
Exchange over here.

Thank
you for the batteries for my blue Photon and for the new white one.
I can’t tell you enough about how useful my Photon lights are here
in Iraq. It is such a common occurrence to be in a situation where I
need light, and it is so convenient that I always have one in my
pocket. Again, thank-you. Hopefully we’ll be out of here well before
I get around to needing new batteries again.

It is a good headlamp; I think it is the best on the market.

headband attached is so GREAT for doing pre-flight inspections at
4:00am! It has made a difference in my ability to do my work –
THANKS!!!

First I would like to open by saying I love your products and own
many of the micro lights. My name is Craig; I am an Air National
Guard helicopter pilot, a volunteer firefighter, and a technician
for the Federal Aviation Administration. I use your products in each
of these capacities.
I think you should know if you already don’t that your lights are
becoming increasingly popular in the military flying community.
Their small size and reliable operation make them an indispensable
tool to many. My pilots now connect them to the zippers on their
flight suits so they are always there when needed. For the record I
currently use the covert blue photon while flying, because it gives
me the benefit that the NVIS green does not. The blue light causes
yellow highlighter to fluoresce. I use the yellow highlighter to
emphasize critical information such as obstacles on my map, and when
I pass my blue photon over the map those features jump right out at
me providing an added measure of safety. This works well even on the
dim setting in a dark cockpit. The dim blue covert light works great
in the cockpit because it does not distract others; the covert cover
minimizes unwanted light dispersion, plus the safety of the “yellow
highlighter trick.
-
The
lights have worked extremely well and the Freedom Micro with the
covert nose was especially useful. At night, the soldiers liked
being able to adjust the flashlight’s brightness when reading maps.
The clip also proved extremely useful giving soldiers hands-free
operation, and placing the light where it was needed the most. The
flashlight was reliable and worked well even in -10 degree weather.
