It offers a tail cap switch. Additionally, the dual function pocket clip indexes on the body and is held down by the grip ring.

Mega Lumens Monday with the NEW XC1-B!

Monday, October 30th, 2017

Fountain Valley, CA—SureFire, LLC, manufacturer of the world’s finest—and most innovative—illumination tools and tactical products, is proud to announce the launch of the all new XC1-B compact handgun weaponlight. The XC1 was developed to be as compact and capable as possible and intended primarily for concealed-carry use. SureFire’s smallest and lightest weight weaponlight has been upgraded to deliver more output and feature improved switching based on feedback from subject matter experts. The new XC1-B has an output of 300 lumens and is now capable of one-handed constant-on activation.

Ambidextrous switching provides both momentary and constant-on activation options. Momentary activation is achieved by placing your support hand thumb on top of either of the two rear downward-activated switches and pushing down. The XC1-B will stay in momentary mode for as long as either toggle switch is depressed and held in the on position beyond a fraction of a second. Constant-on activation is achieved by quickly tapping either one of the momentary switches. To turn off the constant on mode, quickly touch and release either toggle switch. Constant-on can also be achieved by using your support hand to push the center crossbar switch from left to right.

Thyrm Launches the SwitchBack 2.0

Friday, October 13th, 2017

New Features and Refinements Based on 1000’s of Hours of Use

Sunnyvale, CA — Thyrm introduced the SwitchBack in 2014, dramatically improving the most popular flashlights for military, law enforcement, and civilian use. Features included a pocket clip and a finger ring that provided increased flashlight retention and opened the door for new flashlight techniques.

The SwitchBack 2.0 is the next evolution, incorporating new features and refinements based on 1000’s of hours of use by subject matter experts and customers. New features include:
• stronger pocket clip that also works with MOLLE/PALS webbing
• pocket clip position that allows for deeper carry
• optimized design to ease installation
• wider thumb rest with traction features
• small crush ribs on the lip that create a custom fit across a broader range of lights
• aluminum spacer that expands compatibility to Streamlight HL and HL-X flashlights and other manufacturers with similar designs
• finger ring that releases under heavy force/torque, but can be reset

“We spent the last year paying close attention to our customer’s feedback, working with our experts to test dozens of prototypes. We couldn’t be happier with the new design,” said Andrew Frazier, CEO. “As with our other gear, we are proud to design and manufacture the SwitchBack 2.0 in the USA.”
