Command 20 Fire Light

On 2/11/08 @ 12:45 am, we got a call on a structure fire on Washington street and it was fully involved. When we got there they were right, it was so hot, we had to wet down both sides of the house to keep it from lighting up. When it was over no one was hurt.

During overhauling no one had a light with them, my Lt said ask Dennis for his light--they all knew that I always have somekind of new lights or tool. I turned it on and they were amazed at how bright it was and asked me where I got it. I said that I got it from FoxFury and then I told them that I will retire in 6 1/2 years and still have a great light after I'm gone. Thank you. P.S. A couple of the guys orderd a few for the job.

Command 20 Fire Light

I first saw your company at a trade show in San Diego about 5 years ago, and bought one of the first headlamp models that had came out. Ever since, I have had lots of comments on its design and function. I recently bought another new headlamp after the Command series was released.

I believe FoxFury has the best designs and functions of any other model on the market, and I have come to depend on them and use them regularly. Thanks again for your products.

Thanks and here is a recent photo of your product in action at a meth lab.

Command 20 Fire Light

I used the command 20 lights in a couple of  structure fires we had.  The light worked great.  I have never had a light on my helmet before so I don't have anything to compare it to.  I was able to see through some pretty thick smoke about 12-24 inches in front of me.  I was stoked.  Thanks.

Well, I have had the light on my helmet for a little over a month now...and it is awesome.  To have light right where I am looking without having to direct a handheld light or one that is hanging on my coat is great.  I have since removed the right angle light that I have always had on my coat which makes my coat much lighter and and less bulky.  It is easier to crawl and carry other tools now.

I decided to write to you now because I have now had a chance to use it in an interior search in a two-story single family house fire with reports or two children still inside.  My officer on the truck has another FoxFury model on his helmet, so we both were able to keep track of each other from a greater distance than normal, because of the amount of light that it puts out. Visibility was zero because of the heavy smoke and heat, but the light held up to heat that eventually drove us out of the bedroom and down stairs. It was unbelievably hot!  The light lens was blackened, but cleaned up with some soap and water. 

I am extremely happy with my light and have had several people say they were going to look into one now that they have seen me and my officer both using them.

Thanks for the greatest light I've used.

I absolutely love my FoxFury. I work on a full time dept. in a suburb of Toledo. We work 12 hour shifts 3 on 3 off. I work from 19:00 hrs till 07:00 hrs so I have allot of opportunity to use it in allot of different capacities. I use it on injury accidents and it basically lights up the whole car I'm working on, it's great for extrication, I don't have to wait for someone to set up the light's from the truck or if they are set up I don't have to wait for them to be adjusted or not reaching the car.

I am also an instructor so I use it alot in training fires, I am easily able to keep track of students in the thick smoke, the only downfall is I often have to turn it off because it helps the students out to much in finding the victim we have them searching for, so I turn it off until they have completed their task's. Alot of the guys I work with love it except when I'm not thinking and look at them and blind them with it on.

I find myself using the light all the time, it's much better than the hand held Big Ed I have. I don't have to worry about it flopping around on my fire coat and not pointing where I want to look or getting tangled up with my air pack.

Thanks for the great light and it's nice to see a company that is proactive in finding out the results of their product. It's a very functional light and works great in many applications.

Performance Fire Light

The FoxFury Peformance Fire headlamp has been a tremendous asset when conducting fire calls during evening hours; especially fire calls involving vehicle accidents. Although I can't show you photos from actual on scene emergencies, I can definitely state that having extra lighting while utilizing hand tools at night made my job performance more effective. More importantly, a hands-free tool. Most firefighters wedge a hand-held flashlight into their armpit or have someone else hold a flashlight while they work.

As you can see in these photo, everything that I work around in front of me is illuminated, bright and visible as I perform extrication during a training drill. What I've noticed as a safety precaution when out on a vehicle accident during the late evenings is that I am visible to oncoming drivers on the roads and highways. I am very pleased and satisfied with your product. Thank you for allowing me an opportunity to show-off your product and how effective this fire tool can be while out on fire calls.

Performance Fire Light

The FoxFury Performance Fire Fighter Version Headlamp is working just great! It's had a lot of use
over the last year. The first time it was used on a structure fire last year, I got a lot of compliments
on it. I was also told I better keep eyes on it, For it might sprout legs and move to another locker, if I
wasn't careful. I've given a few of my guys your website, so they can explore their options.
So far it's held up through extreme heat and cold.

And still lights up an area without any problems. Thanks for producing a Wonderful Light that can hold
up what we firefighters can put it through.

The light has been great, I have been in some fires with it and it does cut the smoke so you can see better.The other firefighters are always asking about it, but some say it is expensive. I tell them that if they want to see inside it is worth the money, not only in fires but on EMS scenes at night.

I enjoy the light very much. It makes a big difference in being able to see and not being able to see. I really like the fact that where ever I look I can see verses having to stop and use my hands to point a light in a certain direction. It makes it much easier to work inside a Structure Fire, at an MVC during the night or Medical calls when needed.

Just recently I worked an MVC where a driver had ran from the scene and laid down in the woods where there was no lighting. While treating this pt I had accidently turned the light off and then I couldn't see as good, even with other flash lights around.

I have recieved several comments about it and heard several people say they were intrested in getting one. I have attached a picture of me at a structure fire with my light on. I was very impressed when I saw this picture myself. Thanks,

It was amazing to see the difference between a big ed and your lamp which put out a much stronger beam of light.

The LED unit we all had on our helmets is the best thing yet for the fire service. On behalf of myself and my fellow firefighters we thank you.

I put the FoxFury light (Performance Fire) on my helmet when we got back from San Diego. One week ago, we did have a fire that I was able to use it on. It did cut through the smoke and fog really well. I liked the broad beam on it. I have decided that it is the best headlamp I have ever purchased. So far, I feel that I have really gotten my money's worth out of it.

Scout Fire Light

One of our team members recently came back from a Haz Mat trade show in Las Vegas with the Scout model pocket/ hand light. We have used it many times on calls, and have found it to be the perfect size, weight, and brightness for all emergency and non emergency activities. We all love it. I believe it would be the perfect compliment to my headlamp and personal illumination.

I've used it on many different fires, rescues and training scenarios, it has performed very well in all. In fact, I'm quite popular during the salvage and overhaul phase, people unintentionally gather around me while we're working (people naturally gather around a more completely lit area).

We had a big 30 acre brush fire Saturday night out here. My guys were with CDF at the top of this 4WD goat trail. All the CDF guys had only little penlight helmet lamps on their heads. My guys broke out their FoxFury lamps and…..God, It was like having lighthouses on that rocky hilltop. All the CDF boys huddled around my four guys and used them as guides around the fire-line. All the State CDF guys thought they were awesome.

We stayed on that dangerous hilltop till midnight (6 hours) putting it out. They all asked the name of the lights; we told them and that they were out of Vista. Thanks for making such a good product and keeping us safe. This was just the incident I had envisioned for its successful use.

I used these on a Search & Rescue training exercise recently and was amazed at the coverage and depth of field that I had at night…Very good product. Hopefully as more team members are exposed to them in the future, they will jump on board and buy a set.

TX-2 and TX-3

I have several models of the Fox Fury lights, and I love them all.

The TX-3 and TX-2 lights work very well as small task lights, clipping them to pack and equipment straps, and I even have one attached to my motorcycle helmet (a great way to see my way around the bike in a dark parking lot). The lights that I use most often are the Performance Fire Fighter Headlamp, and the Pro III Fire-Tac Headlamp. Both of these lights have proven to be extremely bright, very reliable and durable.   

I have tried many different brands and styles of headlamps and task lights. Of all that I have tried, the Fox Furyline has without a doubt been the most useful and practical, and worth the extra cost as compared to other brands offering far less quality.
