Hi all, I am currently deployed right now. I am a Recon Scout in the US Army. I just purchased a new Spyderco ParaMilitary 2 and a RC-3, I have a few Lights IE: 3 surefire's and a pelican. I am looking for a New BRIGHT Light....any suggestions?

Grab a Fenix PD31 next month when the second release comes out. The cost is about $80 shipped and you get the latest Cree emiter, and 304 OTF Lumens....all on a single 18650 or two CR123's.
 
Check out the Fenix TK-series lights. We're talking around $100 but 600 to 800 lumens, some AA, some CR123A batteries.

For example:

TK40 8 x AA, 630 - 13 lumens
TK41 8 x AA, 800-10 lumens
TK45 8 x AA, 760-8 lumens

TK21 2 x CR123A, 468-5 lumens
TK30 2 or 4 x CR123A, 630-12 lumens
TK35 4 x CR123A, 820-12 lumens
 
Malkoff M91 500 OTF lumens will fit in your Surefire. It will work with 2 rechargeable batteries or you can get an extension to run three primaries.
 
No it won't. Too low voltage and I don't know of a bezel that would hold the malkoff and attach to that nitecore
 
Some options:

ArmyTek Predator G109.1
Current model uses XP-G R5 emitter. Beam profile is focused for throw with some side spill. Tint is almost a pure white, no angry blue or pink to it. Runs off of 2xCR123A, 2xR123 Li-Ion, 1x18650 Li-Ion, or 1x18650 LiFePO4 batteries. Light is fully programmable (http://www.armytek.com/content/predator_manual.pdf), and looks like it can take a beating. I love mine and opted for the matt stainless steel opposed to the gold.

There is an XM-L version that's going to be released later this summer.

Spark SL6-800CW
This one is scheduled to be released next week and will use the XM-L emitter. I believe this comes with a frosted lens, so this one will not be a thrower but should throw up a wall of light. Features a rear (tail) and side switch. Will run off of 1X18650 or 2XCR123A batteries. 500 lumens (max), with 800 lumens (super) available in 5 minute bursts, it isn't specified whether these are taken at the emitter, OTF, or ANSI.

EagleTac T20C2 Mark II
I love this one too. Runs off of 1x18650 or 2xCR123A batteries. This is upgradeable, much like a P60 host, only with EagleTac modules. I currently have a Q4 5A neutral white, XR-E R2 for throw (cool white), and XM-L T6. They just released a XM-L T6 high output, and of course you can also pick up an XP-G R5/S2 or ir/color modules. Is weapon mountable.

Honorable mentions (and I'll echo Esav's recommendations): Fenix TK41 (if size isn't a factor. runs off of 8AA batteries-NiMH recommend), Fenix TK21, or one of the 4Sevens Maelstrom variations.
