Congratulations, with the purchase of this SUREFIRE flashlight, you have invested in one of the world’s best “illumination tools.”
We believe it to be a prime example of our philosophy that design decisions should always be made in the interest of the product being the very best it can be.
Frequently, this means deciding to use a more costly process or a more expensive ma­terial than would normally be called for. We know that in order to produce the best, one must do it right.
We thank you for supporting this deci­sion and electing to confirm our belief in “no compromise” in a product that, by its perfor­mance and reliability, may some day be called upon to save your life.
There is no other choice.

WELCOME
TO THE SUREFIRE TEAM
SUREFIRE lights provide overwhelming
power, and they do this with a quality of beam that is unmatched in brilliance and performance.
SUREFIRE’s high pressure Xenon/ Halogen lamps operate at the highest temperatures possible, producing extraordinary, brilliant, white light.
Our reflectors are machined from solid billets of aircraft grade aluminum.
Each SUREFIRE lamp assembly is permanently prefocused to within less than five thousands of an inch to achieve the absolutely flawless SUREFIRE beam.
The switch is ergonomically located for in­the-dark positive activation.
Whether you need a small light that can be carried in your pocket or a multipurpose professional light, SUREFIRE offers you models that range in power from 15 lumens to 500 lumens.
You can have confidence that your choice of a SUREFIRE light will always reward you with years of superb, unfailing performance.
You have just become the owner of one of the most incredible pieces of lighting technology ever conceived. It is a masterpiece of engineering, a member of the SUREFIRE family which has gained the acceptance and respect of military and law enforcement professionals around the world.

The 9AN Commander Rechargeable Flash­light is a masterpiece of engineering.
This is a one-of-a-kind, high performance unit that does the job of two flashlights. Sim­ply rotate the 9AN head to choose one of two power settings; one projects a low, soft 20 lumen light for close-up activities such as report writing, and the other level gives you a brilliant, high-power 140 lumen beam with the intensity to temporarily blind an attacker.
The slender size is right for carrying on your duty belt; it’s less than half the weight of most side arms.
The flawless light beam features the ac­claimed exclusive Sure-Fire design that com­bines an intense prefocused spotlight center with a surrounding smooth and uniform wide­angle floodlight.
The tail cap switch enables you to hold the flashlight in the preferred overhand grip, which gives you quick switch access, even by feel, regardless of the position of the flash­light in your hand.
Recharging the battery can be done in two (2) hours or less with th AC charger or the 12VDC auto adaptor.
When you may be checking for eye dila­tion one moment and searching a warehouse the next, the 9AN Commander is the only flashlight with the power range that will meet your needs.

WARNING
The Reflector Body is vented for use with Ni-Cd batteries. Ni-Cd bat­teries can release combustible gasses during discharge. In a sealed battery compartment these gases could build­up and might damage the battery or even cause injury to the user. The vent prevents this build-up and is an essential safety requirement. DO NOT BLOCK THE VENT.
