The thrunite TN 12 is only $49.99 on amazon.

Surefire P3X fury. 1000 lumens high, 15 lumens low. Run you about $100. Great throw/spill and is long enough to tuck under your arm.

Not a cop but have a lot of flashlight experience.
I would say a Surefire C2 or 6P preferally a bored one to accept an 18650 battery.
They are top of the line, lifetime warranty, and there lots of quality aftermarket parts for it.
LED technology is evolving fast and the good about this lights is that you can always upgrade the LED engine. A malkoff drop or an oveready drop in would give you a tank of a light
I bought a used one CL not long ago. It was beat up the switch was not working anymore. I took it to Surefire and they gave me a new switch, new batteries, new p60 in and cleaned it up. All Free of charge and I'm not even a cop.

Streamlight Stinger DS LED HL as the rechargeable primary, Streamlight ProTac HL as the CR123 backup. Love them both.

Fenix pd35 great light. Buy on amazon prime. If you don't like it, return it and try a different one.

I work in Petrol in a refinery here in California and i can tell you, the 'torches' i.e. flashlights, are ****e, I use a Surefire EB1, as my primary. It's an excellent torch for low light situations. it is a bit pricey, but it was well worth it, for my (and the communities) well being.
