69501 TLR-1 HL-X USB 1500-Lumen 15000-Candela Rechargeable Rail-Mounted Tactical Weapon Light with Specific Compatibility Rail Locating Keys, Black

Love love LOVE this flashlight! I had a Crimson Trace laser/light combo before this and the laser wouldn't hold zero and the battery wouldn't last long but this flashlight was a game changer for me! I haven't put any rounds down range since I've installed this light but I am already obsessed with it! It has some nice weight to it, looks very proportional to my full size M&P 2.0, the light is white and SUPER bright! I also love that the switches are up/down on/off. It's so much faster and easier to switch it on and off with these switches! The light also feels soooooo much more sturdier!

Has nice weight and feels very rigid. Different light modes are good and the light is very bright. Being able to plug in and recharge battery is a plus also.

This is a significant product improvement over the older models with the toggle switch. This is more ambidextrous and works with a wider variety of weapon systems. The issue was always reaching the switch, but now you can have a long and short switch, or whatever you wish. For weapons like the H&K pistols or the railed 1911, this is a game changer for us short handed folks. I also love the new switch for access to the battery compartment. The texture on the switches are very practical and absolutely genius. Whether you like to PUSH the switch or press down, the switch is positive and easy to actuate. The only disadvantage I could see in this is if the switch were bumped accidentally. Brightness is the same as the old TLR1 I have, as best I can tell. The attachment mechanism is pretty much identical, and the battery life is strictly dependent on how you use the light. If you have light-bearing holsters for the TLR1, this light will fit in those without any modification, from my experience.

Theres a ton of good to say here. Light is bright, consistent, steady, and clean. The battery is on par with industry standard of about 1.5 hours, but being rechargeable is a huge plus. Its simple and intuitive to install and use. Fits a wide variety of systems. Form and function work hand in hand on this as its well designed and comes with a good amount of mounting options. I didnt notice it getting too hot but i also do t use it for long periods of time at a time, use it as intended and shouldnt have issues.

Wonderful light, holds 2 18350 batteries, takes a while to kill the battery ive owned a few streamlights all the way back to tlr8ag and the only thing I can say changed is they cheaper out on the button feel when you press the new ones. But everything else is still great. I tried ordering a 2nd tlr-1 hl-x and accidentally ordered the 1000 lumen one instead of this 1500 lumen one so be careful if you order. Very high quality. And the light does reach almost the length of a football field, its not a wide light its for a long range lighting. Worth the money if you are doubtful, olight brand has nothing on streamlight

Best WML for the money. Functionality is great. Love the upgraded buttons. Easy to replace battery and or charge it. Can’t speak on battery life so far as I haven’t had the product that long but I’m sure it’s fine. Light power is really good with higher lumens using the rechargeable batter. Fits great on my G45 with a radian ramjet! Very heavy duty and durable for a duty pistol.

TLR1-HL-X can be sold in two configurations; with SL-B9 batteries OR with CR123A batteries. The SL-B9 battery has a USB-C port to recharge the battery while the CR123A is a one time use. I would heavily opt towards the SL-B9 batteries as you will be able to use them time and time again with recharging. I swapped out my TLR1-HL for the latest, TLR1-HL-X. I loved the brightness of the TLR1-HL, but was not a big fan of the operation. If you were a right hand shooter, you had to use the support hand to keep the light engaged while shooting (in temp mode). Other clunky ways of using the TLR1-HL included flipping up the switch with the support hand thumb (not easy) or tilting the handgun into your support hand to engage to always on. In running multiple low light shooting drills with the TLR1-HL, this was not optimal. Where the TLR1-HL lags, the TLR-1 HL-X makes up. With super simple support hand thumb (right handed shooter) the TLR-1 HL-X light is engaged and stays on. This allows for quick maneuverability of turning on the TLR-1 HL-X light and actually using your support hand for a full grip. This is a massive upgrade over the TLR1-HL which shooters would use the support thumb to keep the light on, but suffer proper grip with the support hand. The light of the TLR1-HL-X is noticeably brighter then the TLR1-HL. I used rechargeable CR123A batteries in the TLR1-HL and with the same rechargeable CR123A batteries found the TLR1-HL-X eats up the life of the rechargeable CR123A faster then the TLR1-HL. It is a small price to pay and considering you can frond load the batteries without taking the light system off. Holster Fit Once the TLR1-HL-X was installed, it would not fit in the same holster made for a TLR1-HL. My sidearm would stop a bit short of fitting all the way into the holster. However I have an adjustable holster which allows for small adjustments in width. I was able to change the spacers in the holster and once I did, the TLR1-HL-X fit like a glove. If you do not have an adjustable holster, you will probably will have a challenge in using it with the TLR1-HL-X that is designed to fit the TLR1-HL.

This thing sucks! Honest reviews here. Horrible design! The “new” replace battery without removing light is garbage. Battery cap flip down on every shot from g17 gen6 This is what happens you get “fancy” for the price point this design is trash. Returning asap. I would drop it off in person if I could!
