The Holosun P.ID HC is the high-candela member of the P.ID pistol-light family — built for distance, with a tightly focused beam that reaches far downrange for target ID. It produces 800 lumens and an intense 42,000 candela hotspot, with a 400-lumen low mode for close range and longer runtime.
It's powered by a rechargeable 18350 with magnetic USB charging, built from 7075-T6 aluminium, IP68-rated, and mounts to Picatinny rails with ambidextrous rear switches.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does 42,000 candela mean?
Candela measures beam intensity/throw — 42,000 cd is high for a pistol light, giving the HC a long, focused reach for distance ID.
P.ID HC or standard P.ID?
The HC throws further with a focused beam; the standard P.ID has a more balanced flood/throw profile.
How is it charged?
Via magnetic USB on the rechargeable 18350.
