Coming this November, the First-Light GLIDR was developed under an AFWERX SBIR (Small Business Innovation Research) contract to create the ultimate aircrew light.
This PALS compatible light can also be mounted to clothing and helmets thanks to the 360-Degree, rotating steel clip.
There’s even a headlamp band.
It’s compact (60 x 53mm or 2.37 x 2.09 in) and lightweight (2.7oz with battery, 2.2oz without battery) and is powered by a single AA battery.
It offers White Light, NVIS (Mil Spec 3009) and IR (880nm).

Looks amazing. Any chance you guys will make a version with Blue or Green light so us Medical folks can use this for trauma casualties.
Looks a lot like a sidewinder II from streamlight. The streamlight does blue, red, IR, and plain white as well.
This looks much bigger than the sidewinder compact, or the person’s head in video is really small.
