We have re-invented our best-selling TLR-7 sub tactical light by giving users the choice of using either a cost-saving USB-C rechargeable battery pack or a disposable battery, depending on availability or user preference, said Streamlight President and Chief Executive Officer Ray Sharrah. Like its forerunner, the new TLR-7 X sub is extremely bright, compact and low-profile, and can be mounted on many railed subcompact weapons for maximising visibility and targeting capability in tactical situations. It also has the same rear switches on the left and right of the trigger guard to allow for ambidextrous operation.
The new light is available in four different models to fit the Glock 43X/48 MOS and 43X/48 Rail, the SIG Sauer P365 and P365 XL (closed rail systems), the Springfield Armory Hellcat and select 1913 short railed subcompacts including the Smith & Wesson M&P M2.0 subcompact, Beretta Px4 Storm subcompact, Springfield Armory XD-E, XD-S and Hellcat Pro, Heckler & Koch HK45 compact, and SIG Sauer P365 XMACRO.
The TLR-7 X sub features a white power LED that delivers 5,000 candela and 500 lumens over a beam distance of 141 metres. Its custom TIR optic produces a concentrated beam that provides both extensive range as well as optimised peripheral coverage. When using a 3-volt CR123A lithium battery, the light has a run time of 1.5 hours. With a Streamlight SL-B9 Li-Ion rechargeable battery pack inserted, the run time is 1 hour. The Li-Ion 850mAh battery pack can be installed or removed through the light’s face cap, eliminating the need to detach the light from the firearm. The battery pack charges within 2.5 hours via a USB-C cord and is rechargeable for up to 500 cycles.
Like other lights in the TLR line, the TLR-7 X sub features a one-handed, snap on and tighten interface that keeps hands away from gun muzzles when attaching or detaching them. The light also includes a safe-off feature, locking it so it cannot be turned on accidentally. Each model of the TLR-7 X sub features a specialised clamp system for mounting to rails, using the provided key kit.
Constructed with 6000 Series machined aircraft aluminium with a black anodised finish, the TLR-7 X sub weighs 67.8g using a CR123A battery and 74.8g with the SL-B9 rechargeable battery pack. The light measures 6.38cm in length.
With impact-resistant construction, the new light features an IPX7-rated design, making it waterproof to 1 meter for 30 minutes (Streamlight launches TLR-7 HL-X USB multi-fuel rail-mounted light).
