The Cloud Defensive EPL Duty is a pistol-mounted LED weapon light rated at 1,200 lumens and 52,000 candela. That candela figure works out to an effective positive identification distance of 78 yards and visual impairment out to 11 yards, both calculated from the published beam data. It runs on 18350 and is rechargeable. It weighs 4.1 oz in an aluminum body 3.75 inches long. Measured against the 148 weapon lights in the index, it lands on the brighter side for output (1,200 lumens), on the more intense side for beam intensity (52,000 candela), about in the middle for weight (4.1 oz), and on the pricier side for price ($300). It is one of 70 entries in the index that qualify as a light in the same 1,000 to 1,999 lumen class. The closest listed comparison is Cloud Defensive REIN, the same brand's light in the same 1,000 to 1,999 lumen class, priced at $370.
