M6X Light & Laser
M6X Light & Laser was created by jtallen83
I HAD to buy this light because my new P226 holster had some looseness issues when using my TLR1. 
When the M6X arrived in the mail I would have sworn the box was empty, it is very light, 4.4 ounces with batteries. I bought it used on ebay for $130, Amazon has them for about $230 new. It had batteries in it but shows no signs of being used seriously, you can hardly tell it was ever mounted.
I still haven't sorted out exactly who makes these. It says Streamlight but other internet searches say insight or Eotech makes them. The specs are impressive; 150+ peak lumens, 1 hour continuous run time with some info saying 2 hours, waterproof to 66 ft, 200 meter range on the laser, and a temperature range from -32C to 65C. There is a tiny wrench for adjusting the laser that threads in between the bezel and the rail, it has an O-ring so it doesn't back out and get lost. The attachment system is quick, easy, and feels firm.
When I compare the lights my TLR1 seems a bit brighter and broader but the M6X may have a bit more oomph at longer ranges. the batteries may be getting used up as well, the TLR1 has a new set of Surefire batteries so I'll revisit that test when they are both running the same batteries.
I'll beat it around for a spell and report back with my findings, so far I'm happy
