Streamlight TLR-1 HP Gun Light

Features C4 LED Technology to Deliver 200 Lumens

Streamlight has introduced the TLR-1 HP (high power) light, featuring enhanced lumen and candela capacity for use with long guns. .  It is also available in a remote switch model.

 

The TLR-1 HP uses a shock-proof C4 LED to provide exceptional brightness, including 46,000 candela peak beam intensity and 200 lumens measured system output. The light also features a deep dish parabolic reflector which produces a long-range targeting beam while also optimizing peripheral illumination.

 

The long-range beam distance of the TLR-1 HP makes it an essential tactical tool for first responders and military personnel, as well as a very powerful light source that rivals Streamlight’s brightest hand-held lights.  It jis designed for a wide variety of maneuvers under low-light conditions.

 

The light can be quickly mounted to a broad range of weapons using Streamlight’s one-handed snap-on/tighten interface, which keeps hands away from the muzzle.  The light mounts directly to all MIL-STD -1913 (Picatinny) rails and weapons with Glock-style rails.  A key kit with five interchangeable keys is included with each model to securely fit the light to the broadest array of rails.

 

The TLR-1 HP is also available in models with a remote switch.  All models offer a tethered battery door and latch mechanism, which prevent door loss while providing easy battery replacement.   The lights deliver 1.75 hours of continuous regulated run time, and come with two 3 volt, CR123A lithium batteries, with a storage life of 10 years.  In addition, the C4 LED is impervious to shock and has a 50,000 hour lifetime.

 

It weighs 5.3 ounces (5.6 ounces with remote switch), measure 4.83" in length (5.25" with remote switch), and is constructed with 6000 Series machined aircraft aluminum with a black anodized finish.  It also features extensively live-fire tested impact-resistant construction.

 

The TLR-1 HP is backed by Streamlight’s Limited Lifetime Warranty.
