![]() The recent increase in the duration and frequency of power outages has kept a lot of us literally in the dark - and for a lot longer than we’d like.

You can get the Sidekick at the following link: Tags: Surefire On the other hand, through this deal SureFire has locked out their established distributors and retailers from carrying what is honestly a solid product. On one hand, this does potentially open up SureFire to a wider customer base. ![]() We do have to note that the Sidekick is an Amazon-exclusive product. Still, with three output modes, a max output of 300 lumens with a range of 66 meters, and a rechargeable li-ion battery, the Sidekick is a good choice for an EDC light, and since you’re likely to have it with your keys, you’re also more likely to always have it on you. ![]() While that doesn’t take away from how small it is for its capability, it will definitely take up some real estate on your keychain, if you choose to carry it as intended. The Sidekick is a powerful light for its relatively-diminutive size, however it’s also roughly the size of a key fob. Not to mention the Sidekick has an MSRP that is comparable to the Titan-A, and costs less than the Titan-B. ![]() Also, while the Sidekick is roughly twice as wide as either Titan model, it also is. The Titan models are powered by a single AAA battery, and do come with a rechargeable AAA battery, but no method provided to recharge it. The Sidekick comes with a rechargeable li-ion battery and a complimentary USB charge cord. If you find that comparison a bit questionable given the different lumen outputs between the low settings, then it’s also worth reminding that the Sidekick has a 1.25 hour runtime at 300 lumens, versus the Titan-A’s runtime of 50 minutes at 125 lumens, and the Titan-B’s runtime of 1 hour at 300 lumens. The Sidekick’s max runtime is 45 hours at its lowest setting, versus the Titan-A with a runtime of 8.5 hours and the Titan-B with a runtime of 6 hours. The model we have in our possession is the Titan-A, which has a dual output of 15 and 125 lumens the Titan-B or Titan Plus is the triple-output model with an output of 15, 75, and 300 lumens.Ĭomparing the two, you’ll quickly find that the Sidekick is arguably superior in almost every aspect. The Titan is an ultra-compact dual-output flashlight, marketed on the packaging as “an ideal keychain light”. It is marketed primarily as a keychain light, and as such comes with a key clip for attaching to a keychain or carabiner.Īs the Sidekick is designed as a Keychain light, its closest analogue within SureFire’s own product line is the Titan. The Sidekick has a maximum runtime of 45 hours at 5 lumens, 4 hours at 60 lumens, and 1.25 hours at 300 lumens. It produces a wide MaxVision beam with a maximum range of 66 meters, and has an onboard rechargeable li-ion battery, and a mini-USB port to charge the battery. The Sidekick is a triple-output light, with settings for 5, 60, and 300 lumens. Included within the packaging is the Sidekick light, a 6″ USB cable for charging the light, and a key clip. The packaging for the Sidekick is pretty standard for a SureFire-brand light: red background blister pack with all the technical information right on the front, while the back displays the general features.
