Streamlight Launches TLR-10 Rail-Mounted Tactical Light

Streamlight Launches TLR-10 Rail-Mounted Tactical Light

From Streamlight

Streamlight® Inc., a leading provider of high-performance lighting and weapon light/laser sighting devices, introduced the TLR-10™, a 1,000-lumen, full-frame weapon-mounted tactical light with an integrated red aiming laser. Lightweight and compact, the light offers ergonomic rear switch options with either a low or high position to match users’ shooting style.

The new TLR-10 laser/light combination features a fast rail clamp for repeatability on a wide range of full-size weapons.

“The TLR-10 was designed with brightness, extensive range and solid peripheral coverage in mind, while also featuring a red aiming laser for long-range targeting,” said Streamlight President and Chief Executive Officer Ray Sharrah. “The light also features an ambidextrous on/off rear switch with low and high positions to suit user preference. And it fits a wide variety of handguns, making it ideal for first responder and tactical applications.”

Powered by two (2) 3 Volt CR123A lithium batteries, the TLR-10 features three modes: Laser only, LED only and LED/Laser. The light provides 1,000 lumens and 10,000 candela over a 200-meter beam distance. The run time is 1.5 hours for LED only or LED/Laser; in laser-only mode, the run time is 60 hours. The strobe offers 3 continuous hours of run time.

Weighing just 4.62 ounces and measuring 3.87 inches long, the TLR-10 includes a key kit to securely fit the light to a broad range of weapons. The light features a one-handed, snap on and tighten interface that keeps hands away from gun muzzles when attaching or detaching it, and a “Safe off” feature, locking it to prevent accidental activation.

The body and facecap are constructed from durable 6000 Series machined aircraft aluminum with a black anodized finish. With impact-resistant construction, the new model has an IPX4-rated design for water-resistant operation.

The TLR-10 is packaged as the TLR-10 FLEX that includes a High switch mounted on the light, plus an included Low switch. The light has an MSRP of $385.00, and comes with Streamlight’s Limited Lifetime Warranty.

These modes allow you to get true range measurements in real conditions, and in any weather conditions. The reticle display shows range, signal strength and a low battery warning.

Each LRF unit has a fully multi-coated optical system that is water-resistant, nitrogen purged for fog-proofing and weighs just 4.6oz. The optics have 6× magnification with an adjustable diopter.
