Petzl's new Bindi hits the market Jan 2018. It's an ultralightweight (35g), rechargeable and IPX7 waterproof, 200 lumen headlamp designed for everyday use. I really like the adjustable, shock cord strap.
It has three modes, proximity, movement and distance vision along with a red light selection. Made in Hungary.
SureFire is poised to release the Dual Beam Rechargeable Guardian. It is waterproof to IPX7 standards and boasts SureFire’s Intellibeam technology with 800 and 15 lumen settings for the spot reflector and 300 and 15 lumens for the max reflector. It will run for up 3 hours on a charge on the highest setting.
BlueRidge Armor announced the launch of the VENGEANCE™ series, a new hard armor tactical shield line. Introductory models of the new ballistic shields were displayed July 13th and 14th at the ADS Warrior Expo East in Virginia Beach, Virginia.
The VENGEANCE™ Series builds off BlueRidge Armors popular WMX1 Transporter Platform. Partnering with Dix Defense distribution and Elzetta Lighting, maker of the toughest flashlights on the planet, the new series introduces an exclusive patent pending viewport, and two available patent pending lighting systems. The VENGEANCE™ viewport offers the same side to side peripheral vision of a traditional rectangular viewport, while improving lower peripheral vision and maintaining a high degree of upper helmet coverage as the result of its unique Deep-V top.
Elzetta Lighting developed two new shield handle systems with integrated high output LED lights. A Horizontal handle system incorporates a proprietary single point, ambidextrous pressure switch eliminating exposed wiring. The revolutionary Tridextrous™ handle system offers three grip angles and greatly improves ergonomic three-point control of the shield. Three intuitive light activation points are easily accessible for both right and left handed users. Both systems feature high output 1000 lumen LED lights, incorporate distinct diamond textured grip surfaces and are proudly made in America.
BlueRidge Armor, LLC., Dix Defense and Elzetta Lighting are independent, privately held companies.

“…I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain…”
Looks like the folks at BE Meyers & Co have been having a good time.
Reportedly offering 350 lumens white and 120 mW IR.
Elzetta Design, LLC is pleased to announce the release of our new line of lighting systems for ballistic shields. The Elzetta Shield Lights bring a new level of quality and performance to the tactical protection market.
The basic Elzetta Shield Light includes a horizontal handle with an integrated solid-state tape switch while the innovative TriDextrous™ version provides three unique gripping surfaces with light-activating switches in each location. Both models deliver 1,000 lumens of neutral-tint white light through two solid-acrylic optical flood lenses for a wall-of-light that uniformly illuminates an entire room.
All electronics are fully potted for extreme durability with redundant circuitry for the two light sources to ensure continued operation should one source be damaged.
A strobe feature is optional. Elzetta Shield Lights are OEM devices installed on ballistic shields by the shield manufacturer. No soldering or wire-routing is required for installation and the units are backed by a five year limited warranty. Initially available on Blueridge Armor Vengence™ Ballistic Shields, Elzetta Shield Lights are currently in low rate initial production.
Like all Elzetta products, the Shield Lights are Made in the USA by Americans. For more information, email info@ELZETTA.com or call 859-707-7471.
The new Byte Tactical is based in the commercial variant. Powered by 2 AAA batteries, it features a white spot (100 lumens) and a red flood at up to 96 hours. The big difference is that there is a lockout mode ro avoid light NDs and so that the light won’t vampire the batteries to empty when not in use.
LaserMax has begun shipping the CenterFire® Light and Laser Combination with GripSenseTM Activation Technology to distributors, dealers, and retailers nationwide for the Ruger® LC9S®, LC380® and the S&W® M&P® ShieldTM 9mm|.40 S&W®, in Vivid Red.
GripSense activation technology represents the newest generation of laser activation technology, which enables activation of the product upon the user taking a firing grip on the firearm with the utilization of GripSense technology with or without gloves. Additionally the CenterFire with GripSense Activation Technology includes some key innovations, which include a fully programmable operating mode, a Quick-Change Battery HatchTM, and a full three (3) hour battery life, which is safeguarded from inadvertent drain by a 10 minute time out feature.
“The introduction, and much anticipated shipping of this product to the market, results in a significant change in laser aiming devices market landscape”, said Jay Duncan, VP Marketing “The utilization and integration of GripSenseTM technology in this product will provide consumers with options never before available in a laser aiming or illumination tool.”
LaserMax is shipping CenterFire® Light and Laser combination with GripSense Activation Technology for the Ruger’s LCPII®, S&W® M&P® ShieldTM 45, GLOCK® 42|43 in both Vivid Red or Daytime Green (later this month) to complete product offerings in this family.
