It produces 1000 lumens and 22,000 candela (297m) on the SL-B9 rechargeable pack, or 500 lumens / 11,000 candela on a CR123A.
The multi-fuel SL-B9 USB-C system, interchangeable high/low rear paddle switches and ambidextrous activation let you tune ergonomics to your platform. Anodised machined aluminium, IPX7-rated, just 2.88 oz.
