Top quality affordable weapon light

After receiving the Goingbeam V1 I was impressed at how well the light was packed in the foam lined plastic hard case. The light appears to be excellent quality compared to my Streamlight HL-X and the Goonbeam definitely has the edge over my Streamlight when it comes to candela. The rechargeable battery included was also an added bonus as most manufacturers include disposable batteries. For the quality and price I will definitely be purchasing more Goonbeam lights in the future.

Impressive

Just got this light as a gift from my wife. Immediately mounted to rifle for dry testing indoors and out. First impressions are fantastic: packaging and accessories were obviously done with some care and there was a fun surprise in the box. Battery came charged which was nice. Included sticky pad plus zip ties and screws for whatever pressure pad mounting solution floats your boat. The other tailcap with button wasn't my favorite as far as button access but I'm using the included switch so idc. Came with corded lens cover for mitigating ND and reflection which was a nice touch. Brightness was as advertised. Splash on mine was circular and concentrated such that it barely lit the walls in my hallway (during day hours with house lights off) when directed down the center. Went out at night with minimal moon and some cloud cover, not pitch but fairly dark out. Wow. I ranged the hills behind my property out to 400m and I would say the light was usable out that far. I compared it back and forth with my Cloud OWL and this Goonbeam had more usable throw, although far less usable splash. That was as advertised though. Haven't shot with it yet, figured I'd forget to leave a review by the time I get to my next night shoot. With obvious quality out of box I'm sure it will hold up barrel mounted to 7.62 just fine and if it does not for any reason I'll try to supplement this review. Overall extremely pleased ESPECIALLY for the modest pricepoint. I have a Streamlight Protac on my work gun of similar cost and from box to use it does not remotely compare to Goonbeam. Actually kinda resent it now and will probably ask to swap it. My only gripes are that the tailcap with button is not the most usable in the word and the mount is direct to body of light. Personally I'd rather have a mounting option that I could adjust how far front or back the light sits, like a scope ring or something, so that I did not have to adjust other bits of rifle kit to accomodate the light. Regardless of minor gripes this light is well done and I will be recommending your product as I go forward.

So good I'm getting two

I ordered the light after someone recommended it to me. I wasn't too impressed with the streamlight offerings as they weren't very "tight". The beam on the other hand is like a small searchlight, bright and tight. There was recently a storm related power outage. I went outside and started using my light. It was reaching out and hitting at around 800 or so feet no problem. I put the one I ordered on my AK then on my AR. I like it so much I'm getting a second so both my rifles can have light set-ups. 10/10 would recommend!

As advertised plus more!

I have the V1, now I’m just waiting for the V2s to come in! I can’t imagine how much more powerful it’ll be.

Big upgrade in Candela

I bought V1 as a direct upgrade/replacement for a similar light on my AR. The candela output is intense! The spill is less defined compared to other lights I've had but very usable in an indoor environment when needed. For the money, you get a lot of features. The strobe feature can be deactivated if desired. Build quality is good as well. No defects. I"m quite happy with it.
