Description
SureFire practically invented the modern high-intensity handheld back in 1988 with the original 6P, and the 6PX Pro is the direct descendant that carries that name forward. It's a compact, LED-driven light built to run hard and keep running, whether it lives in your pocket, your glovebox, or clipped to a duty belt. Two output levels give you the range you need: a focused 600-lumen high beam that reaches out roughly 187 meters, and a 15-lumen low that stretches runtime dramatically for close-up work or long nights in camp.
Where the 6PX Pro Earns Its Keep
The switching is what makes this one click for a lot of folks. The click-type tailcap gives you momentary-on low with a light press, constant-on low with a full click, and high output when you return to off and press again within a couple seconds. It's intuitive once your thumb learns it, and it means you're not blinding yourself on max power when all you wanted was to find your keys. High runs about 1.5 hours, and low will keep glowing for around 52 hours on a fresh set of cells.
Build Quality You Can Feel
The body is machined from high-strength aerospace aluminum, sculpted for a secure grip and finished with Mil-Spec hard anodizing that shrugs off scratches, abrasion, and corrosion. Up front, a micro-textured polycarbonate reflector spreads a smooth beam with a useful ring of peripheral light, so you keep some situational awareness instead of staring down a narrow tunnel. O-ring and gasket seals earn it an IPX7 waterproof rating, meaning rain, snow, and the occasional drop in a puddle won't faze it.
Powering the 6PX Pro
It runs on two CR123A lithium batteries, which come included in the box so you're ready out of the gate. At right around 5.2 inches long and 5.2 ounces with cells loaded, it's small enough to carry every day but substantial enough to feel like a real tool. Made in the USA and backed by SureFire's reputation, the 6PX Pro is one of the easiest lights in the lineup to recommend for EDC, work, or duty use.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do the dual outputs work on the 6PX Pro?
The click-type tailcap handles everything. A light press gives you momentary-on low at 15 lumens, a full click locks in constant-on low, and to reach the 600-lumen high you return to off and press or click again within about two seconds. It takes a few tries to get the rhythm, but it becomes second nature fast.
What batteries does the SureFire 6PX Pro use, and are they included?
It runs on two CR123A lithium batteries, and SureFire includes a fresh set in the box so you can use it right away. CR123A cells have a long shelf life and perform well in cold weather, which is part of why SureFire builds around them. You can also run compatible rechargeable 123A cells if you want to cut down on disposables.
Is the 6PX Pro tough enough for duty or field use?
Yes, that's exactly what it's built for. The aerospace aluminum body with Mil-Spec hard anodizing resists scratches and corrosion, and the IPX7 waterproof rating with O-ring and gasket seals keeps rain and moisture out. It's a favorite among law enforcement and everyday-carry users for good reason.
How far will the 6PX Pro throw its beam?
On high output it reaches roughly 187 meters, which is plenty for scanning a yard, a field, or a treeline at night. The micro-textured reflector keeps the beam smooth with a useful ring of spill light around the edges, so you keep some peripheral awareness instead of a tight tunnel.
