I have read all reviews but all anyone says is that the light is bright. As a tactical operator I need to know how bright. Is it a beam or flood and for how many yards/meters?

At least as bright as a SureFire G2. As a Soldier who has been in Iraq going door to door, this is a good light. More of a flood than beam. This is a great light to enter a room with - it will blind your target in front, but still diffuse enough to light the whole room.

Your question is not easy to answer. My idea of bright over a certain distance may not agree with your ideas. Anyway, the flashlight produces a very bright center spot dimming gradually as it spreads to the sides. At about 25 to 35-ft, that spot of very bright illumination (near daylight to you, blinding to the subject) will be about 6 to 8-ft wide spreading out to well illuminate an area roughly twice that size. I'd say the maximum range of very bright light is about 75-100-ft, but you'll still see your subject well beyond that.

This light is very brite. It is more spotlight than a flood light. But is still a little like a flood.I can see clear for about 60 yards hitting the object straight on.

the Aim sport 90 beam is wide and not zoomable and with shipping is to expensive, my came out to be $24.43. I recommend for the price and zoomabitlity the mini 400 lumens cree Q5 led zoomable adjustable focus flashlight torch with waterproof design for only $4.35. It is a square focused beam that will do the job. there are more expensive ones that are better with higher lumens but most of them lie they are usually about half what they claim to be.:(

The beam is more of a floodlight than a spotlight. The laser does a nice job of pin pointing target though.

It has a nice tight spot, and 300m is not out of range if it is good and dark. You'll be more impressed with the flood, though, it will illuminate several acres evenly- you won't have any trouble spotting eye shine or movement. My earlier assessment of battery life was based on a bad battery, 90 min on high is about max with a 5000mah battery. For the money you will be amazed.

It's a spotlight. If you need more of a flood light, this one is very directional. But it is very bright...

I have owned this light for about 6 months and it is a Flood but it will light up an area about 70 yards in front of you. It is very bright.

I'd say a wide beam. It is one of the brightest above water and below water flashlights that I have ever used.

It casts about a good 50 to 60 yards. It floods and spot. But the spot is not a concentrated beam. For the price they are bright. Good kelvin color!

This is a flood light. Light intesity is 15 Lumens and I used it to light up my Large tree. I would use Solar light of 50 Lumens for the intensity and pwer for light to reach from roof to swimming pool. Go to Lowes and they have sample solar lights on display. I bought 50 Lumens light ($50) to light up a corner in my back yard

Actually pretty good. It's not a blinding light. It's as bright as the low beams on my Polaris 500. It has a fair flood patern if used for visibility. Just not far reaching.

The light is bright! I can see 300 yds (at least) and it covers a 2 lane highway. This morning 0430 I spotted 2 deer at over 200 yds. I have also noticed that cars no longer keep their high beams on me now that I am lighting up the street :-) buy it!!!

It is quite bright. I have two of them mounted on the each side of my front tires. At 500 lumens for each light it can be seen from well over a 100 yards. I can't say it is blinding but it does get the attention of motorists.

It's very bright for such a small light. I would say the beam shines 150 yds before faltering off. If you really need a tight compact beam for ultra long distance, this wouldn't be a good fit.I'm guessing this has a 20' diameter spot at 100yrs. Also, I'm very surprised at the operating time before charges. It's very good. Build quality is excellent, marine quality. I was tired of buying cheap flashlights that only last a few years. This will last a few decades.

The distance depends on ambient light. You get 150-200 feet. It's ok. I'd pass and get something else. I've had mine for about a year. It's ok, and good for the price, I wish it were a more focused beam and less flood. All led naturally provide flood aLight sound the beam

It is a floodlight, NOT a spotlight. There is no focusing mechanism. In fact, I question whether the metal reflector in the light really does much of anything.
