Weapon light

The new Defender P15 is a versatile every day carry flashlight and the first weapon light offering from AceBeam. Featuring a precision CNC machined 7075 aluminum body and 1700 lumens of output, the P15 is solidly built with impressive output for its size. It features a newly designed accessory port for tape switches and a quick function button.

The Rein Micro provides users a very potent and capable light that combines a high lumen count with a massive amount of candela. It’s a blinding bright light that will certainly blind a home invader and buy the home defender a second to react. The impressive ergonomics combined with the unbeatable power makes the Rein Micro an awesome option for defensive use.

The Baldr lineup from Olight has received mixed reviews. When they told me they were announcing a new Baldr model, I was hoping they fixed some of the shortcomings of the previous versions. A week later the new light showed up at my door. Opening the package revealed the new Baldr-S laser/light pistol light.

Introduced last summer, the Olight Odin was their first long gun weapon mounted light with an impressive 2,000 lumen output and 300 meter throw distance. Olight includes a remote pressure switch, and everything needed to mount the Odin on standard picatinny rails.

When it comes to getting into Night Vision, most everything is expensive and you need quite a bit to just get into the game. Streamlight has a great offering that gets you in at a decent price while giving you a lot of capability. I’m talking about the VIR II Weapon Light.

The new Odin Turbo LEP from Olight is essentially a light saber. The beam is hyper focused into a single hotspot and is ideal for anyone looking to do long range night time shooting or hunting.

The Viridian XTL with Cam is a 500-lumen waterproof weapon light with a high definition camera built into the unit (has audio). I tested it at a 2 gun night match and the results are as follows.
