- Why Bulletproof Zone?
The SureFire EDC1-DFT is a compact, single-cell handheld flashlight built for everyday carry and long-distance illumination. Its Dual Fuel design accepts either the included SF18350 rechargeable lithium-ion battery for a peak beam intensity of 95,000 candela, or a standard 123A primary lithium battery for 55,000 candela. Available in Black, Tan, and Gray.
Reach Farther Into the Dark
The EDC1-DFT's tightly focused beam pattern is designed specifically for long-distance identification, the kind of task where raw candela output matters more than a wide flood. At 95,000 candela peak with the SF18350 battery, the beam carries intensity far enough to let a user positively identify what is at distance before closing in. The concentrated pattern is complemented by enough spill light to support situational awareness of the surrounding area, so the user is not tunnel-visioned on a single point.
Two Battery Options, One Light
Dual Fuel technology means the EDC1-DFT is not dependent on a single battery format. The included SF18350 rechargeable lithium-ion cell delivers the full 95,000-candela peak output and can be recharged for repeated use. When a rechargeable cell is unavailable, a standard 123A primary lithium battery drops in directly and delivers 55,000 candela. Carrying a spare 123A as a backup is a straightforward way to ensure the light is never out of service.
Built to Handle Field Conditions
The EDC1-DFT body is machined from aerospace aluminum and finished with a Mil-Spec hard-anodized coating for resistance to wear and impact. O-ring sealing and a tempered window bring it to the IPX7 waterproof standard, meaning it is rated to withstand temporary immersion. The body and tailcap are knurled for a secure grip in wet or gloved conditions. A two-way clip allows bezel-up or bezel-down carry on a pocket, belt, or gear strap.

Who This Is For and Isn't
The EDC1-DFT suits users who need a compact, high-intensity flashlight for everyday carry, low-light navigation, or threat identification at distance, particularly those who want the flexibility of rechargeable and primary battery options in one light. The IPX7 rating and rugged construction make it appropriate for field, patrol, or outdoor use where the light may be exposed to rain or brief immersion.
The EDC1-DFT is not a wide-flood or area-illumination light. Its tightly focused beam pattern is optimized for distance, not broad coverage of a close-in space. Lumens output, runtime, and beam distance in meters are not stated in the available product data and should be confirmed before purchase if those specifications are decision-critical for a specific application.
Common Questions
What batteries does the EDC1-DFT use, and which is included?
The SureFire EDC1-DFT ships with one SF18350 rechargeable lithium-ion battery, which delivers the full 95,000-candela peak output. The light also accepts a standard single 123A primary lithium battery, a widely available format, which delivers 55,000 candela. No charger is listed as included in the available product data.
What does "candela" mean, and how does it differ from lumens?
Candela measures peak beam intensity: how concentrated and far-reaching the brightest point of the beam is. Lumens measure total light output across the full beam. The EDC1-DFT is rated in candela because it is designed for long-distance identification, where a tightly focused, high-intensity beam matters more than raw total output. Lumens are not stated in the available product data for this light.
Is the EDC1-DFT waterproof?
The SureFire EDC1-DFT meets the IPX7 waterproof test standard, achieved through O-ring sealing and a tempered window. IPX7 indicates the light is rated to withstand temporary immersion. It is not rated for continuous submersion or diving use.
What carry options does the EDC1-DFT offer?
The EDC1-DFT includes a two-way clip that allows bezel-up or bezel-down carry on a pocket, belt, or compatible gear attachment point. The body and tailcap are knurled for a secure grip when the light is drawn and used in wet or gloved conditions.
Does the weight differ between color variants?
Per the product data, the Black and Gray variants are listed at 0.41 lb each, while the Tan variant is listed at 0.24 lb. The reason for this difference is not explained in the available data. Buyers for whom exact weight is a deciding factor should confirm the specification before ordering.

The Bulletproof Zone Promise
When you buy body armor, you're buying your safety. We don't take that lightly. Here's what every order from Bulletproof Zone includes.
1. Authorized dealer of every brand we carry
Every plate, vest, and carrier we ship comes from the manufacturer directly to our warehouse. We don't sell gray-market product, surplus, or returns. That means factory-fresh stock, the full manufacturer warranty, and real after-sale support — the kind only an authorized dealer can offer.
We maintain authorized-dealer relationships with America's leading body armor brands, including Spartan Armor Systems, AR500 Armor, RMA Defense, Shellback Tactical, Caliber Armor, DFNDR Armor, Protection Group Denmark, BulletSafe, BulletBlocker, and over 40 more.
2. Best price, guaranteed
If you find a lower price at another authorized dealer of the same product within six months of your purchase, we'll refund the difference.
Why the "authorized dealer" requirement? Because gray-market and surplus armor may not be genuine, may have a compromised supply chain, and almost never comes with a manufacturer warranty. We won't price-match against products that may not actually protect you.
3. Free fitment consultation
Body armor only protects you if it fits. Email us a photo and your measurements before you order, and one of our specialists will help you size your carrier and plates correctly — at no charge, no obligation.
4. Trusted by thousands of customers
Bulletproof Zone has been a trusted authorized dealer of America's leading body armor manufacturers for over five years. We have over 4,000 verified Trustpilot reviews from real customers across all 50 states.
