This light has an incredible throw and an impressively wide splash. Cloud Defensive REIN Throw 25ft to WoodlineĪlso took a quick video off/on so you could see how the light activates and how well it works. Well, it’s better to show you in than it is to try to explain it. Numbers are great but it all boils down to how does the light performs when in use. On my most recent AR-15, my Stag AR-15, I used the Arisaka Defense Side Scout light mount. Personally, I always use Arisaka mounts and you can use any Surefire M300 pattern mounting solution for this REIN. You don’t have to use this mount, and likely you’ll want to get a mount that is M-Lok or Keymod. Mountingīoth sizes of the REIN come with a Picatinny mounting solution.

We will address throw of the light section of this guide but from a sheer performance standpoint, both of these AR-15 weapon lights are good to go. The REIN and the REIN Micro are neck and neck in terms of candela and lumen output but the run time is what really takes a hit on the smaller Micro battery. The REIN Weapon light stacks up pretty stout in the stats department. The overall feel of the construction on these lights is really solid. The Cloud Defense Rein, both REIN and REIN Micro, are built from 6061-T6 aluminum and are then anodized in type III hard coat anodizing. The REIN is perfect for any AR-15 but the Micro is well suited for short barrel rifles or AR-15 pistols. The Micro does take a slight performance and output hit to get a smaller package. The rein comes in two different sizes the REIN and the REIN Micro. I’m currently running the FDE REIN on my Stag Arms AR-15. The Cloud Defensive REIN is a relatively new AR-15 flashlight. 11 Best High End AR-15 Flashlight AR-15 Flashlight Comparison Chart AR-15 Flashlights
