What's a good rail-mounted weapon light for a Gen 3 Glock 19 that is being reassigned to nightstand duty?

Not looking for the cheapest nor most expensive.

Thanks.

Edited to add:

Does anyone know whether these lights are usually discounted anywhere for Black Friday/Cyber Monday holiday sales?

After someone on here suggested the LA police gear model for around 60 dollars I ordered one. Its a bargain.

I've got a Streamlight TRL-1 HL on a G19 and really like it. I have used it in several night matches and it works very well with no issues so far. I've got a few thousand rounds through the gun with the light mounted. The switch (momentary or constant) is very easy to activate while manipulating the gun.

Thanks, all. Any concerns that the 1,000 lumens of the TLR-1 HL might be a bit too bright inside a relatively small house?

Get a non LED streamlight they aren't nearly as bright.

I have both and the old model police trade ins are moderate compared to the LED
