SureFire E1E Executive Elite Review

Coming from a E1L review, we’re pretty sure we’d be quite impressed with the E1E, considering we are still at a SureFire bias. This thing is cheaper at only $79 retail—because it only has a maximum rating of 15 lumens and 1.5 hours run time. The olive drab scheme, well, let’s just say we can’t get enough of it. The E1E is a tad bit shorter at 3.4″ and lighter at 2.2 ounces (than the E1L).

The E1E comes in two versions: E1-BK and E1-HA version, which stands for black anodized and hard anodized respectively.

Below is an inspiring review from an expat in the Middle East.

“The Surefire E1E I own probably gets more use than any other flashlight. It is not bright enough for defense, running about 15 lumens, but as a handy go anywhere flashlight it is superb. I have carried mine for hour long patrols in the rain in Japan and all over the middle east and it has never hiccuped. And if it did I know from experience that Surefire’s customer service is second to none. You will pay more for this light then an el cheapo from the local superstore but what you get is a good run time and utter reliability. It won’t fall apart of fail you when you need it most, the only down point this light has is the bulb which like all bulbs burns out eventually. Surefire has remedied this with their new LED version though. You can’t go wrong with this one.”

In olive drab…
