INFORCE Releases WML HSP – 200 Lumens – Momentary Only Activation

Wednesday, November 21st, 2012

The INFORCE WML HSP was specced out by Haley Strategic Partners specifically for tactical low light applications. Running a white light with an upgraded 200 lumen lamp, it offers tight beam for close- to mid-range applications. The light also delivers a balanced peripheral light for discernment of the surrounding area.

One of the things I like about this version of the WML (other than the $109 price) is that it features a momentary only digital pressure pad. The ergonomic pressure pad is angled and it’s right there on the light so there are no wires or tape switches. Additionally, there are two distinct easy-to-operate lockout systems to avoid light accidental discharges. It’s a scant 3 ounces all told, including batteries which will offer 90 minutes of run time at 200 lumens. It also integrates its own mounting solution that is Mil Std 1913 compatible. Finally, the WML is waterproof to 66 feet.

Both rely on the same body and head but different tail caps. The Tactical Model features a two stage button with the first stop at 5 lumens and the second stop at 200 lumens. The “clickie” model incorporates a shrouded tail cap and in addition to the two settings, you can “click” the desired power setting.

That’s right, you get 200 lumens from a single CR123A for 1.3 hours. At 5 lumens it works for 37 hours.
