MDM – Princeton Tec

Wednesday, September 25th, 2013

It might be an oldie but a goodie but the Apex headlamp just transitioned to a 275 lumen version.

This version relies on 2 x CR123As but there is also a rechargeable version as well as a variant that uses 4 x AAs. There are four area lights in white or red that offer general illumination in high or low power. These are paired with a 275 lumens spot light with high or low. This is regulated light meaning you’ll get the full 275 lumens for a longer period before dropping off and they have incorporated both a heat sink and low battery indicator. Waterproof to 1m. All for under $100.

SureFire Releases 600 Lumen Dedicated Shotgun Forend

Tuesday, September 17th, 2013

SureFire has completely re-invented its Dedicated Shotgun Forend WeaponLights. The new DSF-Series Shotgun Forend models are the latest addition to SureFire’s class of integrated weapon-mounted lights and feature an ultra-high-output of 600 lumens on its high setting and 200 lumens on its lower setting. Additional features include a precision reflector, ambidextrous switching, and sleek high-impact polymer that is textured for a secure grip in any tactical situation.

The new Dedicated Shotgun Forend models are designed to replace the factory forends on the Remington 870, Mossberg 500/590, Winchester Defender 1300, SPX and Fabrique Nationale d’Herstal (FNH) P-12, Benelli M1 Super 90 and M2 models. No permanent modification to host weapon is necessary for installation, and all models seamlessly integrate into place of the factory forend.

The DSF features large, tactile momentary and constant-on switches on both sides for precise control by left- and right-handed shooters. Selecting the LED’s output is achieved by activating the light in constant-on mode and then pressing the output-mode selector switch until the desired output level (600 or 200 lumens) is set. The selected output can then be left in constant-on mode or switched to momentary activation, and it stays at that output level until reset. Every DSF-Series WeaponLight also features an integrated system-disable switch to prevent accidental activation during transport, storage, or stealth operations.

All DSF models produce tactical-level light (over 50 lumens) for 3 hours on two 123A lithium batteries.

Elzetta High Output Flashlights

Monday, September 16th, 2013

Elzetta has announced its new line of High Output options for its line of tactical flashlights. When fitted to an Elzetta 2-cell body, the new high output head produces 650 lumens with a runtime of 1.5 hours. The same head fitted on a 3-cell body produces an output of 900 lumens with a runtime of 1.7 hours, possible due to the patent-pending Automatic Voltage Sensing technology featured in the heads.

The new high output heads incorporate a solid-acrylic field-replaceable optical lens, providing outstanding throw, generous spill, and a “soft edge” that no reflector-based flashlight can replicate. The high output head is available with either a smooth standard bezel right or optional Crenellated Bezel Ring.
