Streamlight is introducing the TLR RM 1 HL-X, a tactical weaponlight for long guns that features up to 1,000 lumens and 22,000 candela for extreme brightness over long distances. The light gives users the choice of using either a SL-B9 USB-C rechargeable battery pack for high-lumen operation or a CR123A lithium battery and offers both push-button and remote switch operation. It securely attaches to any long gun with a Picatinny rail.

“The TLR RM 1 HL-X provides long gun users with a super-bright, far-reaching beam using just a single rechargeable battery,” said Streamlight president and chief executive officer Ray Sharrah. “Law enforcement, military personnel, shooting enthusiasts and other users will appreciate its concentrated beam when clearing a room, searching an alley or otherwise lighting their way when a long-distance beam is needed. It also provides both battery and switch options to suit user preferences.”

The TLR RM 1 HL-X uses a high-power LED light source to deliver 1,000 lumens and 22,000 candela over a 970-foot beam distance when using a Streamlight SL-B9 Li-Ion 850mAh USB-C rechargeable battery pack, and 500 lumens and 11,000 candela over 210 meters when using one 3-volt CR123A lithium battery. Run times range from 30 minutes using the SL-B9 battery pack to 90 minutes using a disposable battery.

Packaged as a complete system, the light features independently operating push-button and remote-pressure switches that provide momentary or constant on operation; the kit provides everything users need to mount to long guns. The light is also available in a light-only model.

Fabricated from 6000 series machined aluminum with a black anodized finish, the TLR RM 1 HL-X has a switch housing made from impact- and chemical-resistant engineered polymer. It weighs 3.12 ounces using an SL-B9 battery, 3.02 ounces with a CR123A battery, and measures 3.64 inches long. The light has an IPX7-rated design, making it waterproof to 1 meter for 30 minutes.

The TLR RM 1 HL-X has an MSRP ranging from $277.30 to $327.86, depending on the configuration. More information on this light as well as other products from Streamlight is available at streamlight.com.
