As ya'll know i just got a new G21 and i'm not into tearing it up like i did with my older Glocks.I am however going to do 2 things that i wanted an opinion on.

1)Polishing the barrel is a must,it just looks more pleasing to the eye.

2)adding a trl 3 compact just for around the house.I won't be carrying with the light,just adding before bed.the reason i'm looking into the compact is when i'm not using it i can add it to my wife's G23 while she is at home.

Are they worth the 80.00 or are they useless

Well, as long as you think so, that's all that counts.

Don't have any experience with that particular light, but I've had nothing but good experiences with the TLR-1. I've owned two of them and at one time or another they've been mounted on a Glock 19, S&W 4583, 9mm and 5.56mm ARs, and a semi-auto M-14 clone.

the TLR-3 IMHO is a winner, a polished barrel is a personal preference
