Smith & Wesson definitely does okay flashlights. January 6, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful

The white LEDs are very bright and can cast useful light up to 30'. The white light is as close to actual white as I've seen in any LED flashlight. Sometimes cheaper LEDs will cast a bluish light, but this one is almost perfectly white. The light is also very uniform in appearance--meaning there are no rings when you shine it on a wall.

The UV LEDs shine very much like the white LEDs (bright, even, uniform, etc.), but have an effective range of about 12'. Neon items will floresce from 20+ feet, but for other things, you will need to be closer. Take it to work and shine it around your bathrooms. You may not like what you see. There are lots of uses for the UV light. Just search around Google for things you can use it on.

Overall, the light is great. I particularly like the fact that it has two on/off switches (one for each set of LEDs). It's made well and lives up to the Smith & Wesson name. One thing not in the product description is that not only does it come with batteries, the heavy duty nylon holster also has a small pocket on the side to carry an extra set of AA batteries so you won't be without White/UV light in the field.

Great buy for me, and I hope you enjoy too.

Surprisingly mediocre flashlight June 26, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I currently have a few flashlights, the mini-maglite BLK 2AA Mini Maglite, and Maglite 4C Cell Flashlight, Black - S4C016. They are all well and good but I sometimes accidentally leave them on and then have to go clambering around to find new batteries. LEDs seem to be the answer to that problem.

I bought an LED conversion kit for one of my 2AA mini maglites Nite Ize L.E.D. Upgrade Kit - White the kit worked well and I enjoyed using it.

When I had the opportunity to buy a new flashlight I thought I'd make it interesting and get the Galaxy 6 LED. If it has 3 white LEDs it ought to be brighter than a normal 1 LED surely? Sadly I seem to be wrong.

The flashlight does its job okay but 3 LEDs do not seem brighter than the 1 LED flashlight I currently have, however, the UV LEDs make things interesting.

Overall this is an interesting product that does provide light but only time will tell if the body and the batteries hold up to what Smith & Wesson promise.

Save Your Money - Buy a Surefire or MagLite June 14, 2007
7 out of 9 found this review helpful

I don't usually write reviews, but this product is so bad that I wanted to warn others. I own many fine flashlights, and I am afraid this is not one of them. First, the flashlight drains batteries even when it is off. I wrote to Smith and Wesson, and they referred me to the company that produces the flashlights for them, Powertech. Powertech will not respond to e-mails/voicemails. Even with new batteries, the light from the 3 white LED's is inadequate (I would say it is around 15 lumens or so at best), and the UV beam is even weaker. Would be good for detailed work (up close hobbies and the like) but completely inadequate outdoors for hunting and tracking purposes. For the same price, the new 3 watt LED mini-mag lite is a suprisingly good option. It has a powerful beam that can be focused. My advice would be to spend $10 bucks more and get a Surefire G2 Nitrolon. This is a horrible product, and I would strongly advise against purchasing it.

A GREAT LITTLE FLASHLIGHT WITH 3 ULTRAVIOLET LED'S AND THREE WHITE LED'S WHICH IS PERFECT FOR ALL SPORTSMEN. ESPECIALLY HUNTERS WHO CAN USE THE ULTRAVIOLET FEATURE FOR "BLOOD TRACKING". GREAT CONSTRUCTION WHICH ALSO FEATURES TWO SEPARATE SWITCHES FOR THE LED'S. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
