Small but bright

The new ProTac Rail Mount 1L-X and the ProTac 1L-X Pro from STREAMLIGHT come soon. It is a multi-fuel tactical light with a compact design to fit short-barreled rifles, submachine guns, and carbines with limited rail space. The new high-output lights, which also are available in USB configurations, deliver up to 850 lumens for extreme brightness. 

The light-only models feature a standard push-button tail cap, providing ease of activation without a pressure pad. The Pro models also offer a Jack Cap tail cap switch that provides dual operational redundancy, including push-button and remote pressure switch control, for the ultimate in flexibility. The lights are powered by either one Streamlight SL-B9 protected lithium-ion rechargeable battery pack, or a single 3-volt CR123A lithium battery for use if the rechargeable cell is out of power.

On the high setting, the ProTac Rail Mount 1L-X USB and 1L-X Pro USB models deliver 850 lumens, 30,000 candela, and a run time of 30 minutes when using an SL-B9 battery; with a CR123A battery inserted, they provide 500 lumens, 18,000 candela and a 1.75-hour run time. On low, the lights offer up to 6.5 hours of run time,100 lumens and 3,400 candela depending on battery selection.

The ProTac Rail Mount 1L-X USB and the ProTac Rail Mount 1L-X have MSRPs of $190.00 and $181.00, respectively, while the ProTac 1L-X Pro USB and the ProTac Rail Mount 1L-X Pro have MSRPs of $221.00 and $212.00, respectively.
