Inova T1 & X5 Series LED Tactical Flashlight ReviewWhat to look for in a quality tactical light

If you are not hip on what has happened in flashlight technology in the last 10 years then.. let me enlighten you. The new bread of high performance LED flashlight outperform the largest 2 foot long 4+ cell Kypton bulbed Maglites everyone is familiar with in every respect and are so small they can fit in your back pocket. A good light is not cheap and start in the $50+ range.


- LED light "bulb" diodes - LED lights are virtually indestructible compared to bulb based lights and can take huge amounts of impact and not fail. Additionally they typically burn exponentially longer, are virtually replacement free and then of course they provide the brightest whitest light of any bulb.
- Thick machined billet aluminum body - Extruded bodies are nowhere near as strong. Another option are the new High strength polymer bodies which are tauted to be as strong as aluminum.
- Electronically controlled LED and power control. - These flashlights run longer and can also feature various functions including momentary on, click on/off, strobe, and low output options all via one button.
- Precision machined aluminum reflector - High output LEDs do generate a lot of heat and if the reflector is not aluminum it will meat with long run times.
- Dual side coated anti-reflective coating makes the light brighter.
- Waterproof construction keeps the light running even during wet times.
- CR123A Battery Power - These lithium batteries power all sorts of tactical equipment and deliver more power longer than nearly any other battery and have a near indefinite shelf life.

Inova X5

Inova T1 Series Flashlight

The new T1 version offers high/low/strobe/ and light lockout settings and a 120 lumen output. On the low setting for ambient light, this flashlight can an amazing 38 hours at a 16 lumen output. The advantage is that you get two flashlights in one. Blinding and I do mean blinding light, low output map reading light, and a tactical disorienting strobe for defensive use.
Inova also makes several tactical lights starting with the small 2-cell CR123 powered T1 to the big T5 3 cell flashlight with a 200 lumen output. I choose the Inova T1 because of its small single profile (one size from reflector to end cap) which still offers full power output and runtime. I carry the light constantly and wanted something which would ride well in my back pocket or jacket pocket and the single profile makes it more comfortable to carry. If you can spare the extra dollars, the T1 is one of the best buys for a super premium flashlight abailable for defense, military, and just to see what is in your purse. Suggest Retail $67.99
Final Thoughts
In the realm of premium flashlights there are certainly brighter lights however there is always a direct relationship between high output and length of run-time. For me the power and size the Inova X3 and T1 pack into an affordable tactical light makes me believe this is a light everyone can afford.
