Streamlight69500 TLR-1 HL-X 1000-Lumen 15000 Candela Rail-Mounted Tactical Weapon Light with Specific Compatibility Rail Locating Keys, Black

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.

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 FitOnce 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.

Fits my G19 perfectly. It looks big on the 19 and extends a bit beyond the barrel, but it still fits. No wobble. Buttons are extremely accessible. Device is easy to turn on and off. 1500 lumens is bright and will easily blind human. Great for indoor or outdoor use. Worth the price tag.

After doing research on several WML's I decided to give this one a try. I have the original battery version and this one is every bit as good. Light is brighter then the battery version when using rechargeable batteries. With regular batteries the light is slightly dimmer but still very usable.

So this just has rechargeable batteries. Not quick disconnect. Uses this stupid key systems that has extra parts you have to take out a c clamp and take it apart to put in a little piece...rather then a 1913 system like all orders.Has a flip open system that holds battery. Broke first shooting. Batteries feel out. Needed a screwdriver to take it off.

Good size and build quality- Bright. Nice battery change featureBad- comes with several rail adaptors, which include two 1913 picatinny rails. Unfortunately it doesn’t fit tactical rail size of 3.50-3.65mm, Both my Atlas G. Have that.

Front loading battery compartment with no need to dismount is a great feature
