I have been scouring google looking for reviews of this light, and I cant seem to find any. Is it not any better than a TLR-1S standard? This would be for a carbine btw.
That is what it is, a TLR-1s meant for carbines and a higher lumens output. The body is the same just with more powerful LED which is good up to 400 meters.
From durability perspective, do you think it would be the same as a regular tlr-1?
Is it more of a spotlight or a wide-dispersion type similar to the TLR-1s?
I have been using the original tlr-1 for quite a few years and have had no problems with it.
That bell appears to be quite large.
I had a regular tlr1s and with the exception of the battery door, it was greatly inferior to the X300. I would wait for the X300 ultra if you need a high output pistol/carbine light.

I’ve been very happy with mine. I use it on my “house carbine”. The large bell gives it a very wide beam and is great for checking the property for coyotes… Ron
So do we feel like the added throw of the light is worth not being able to mount it at 12 o clock? I had my original TLR-1 set up this way and really like it.
For my use, yes it does… I get a lot more light covering a larger area… Ron
This thing basically looks like a TLR-1 body but with a SuperTac bezel, the latter had 160 lumens whereas the TLR-1 HP supposedly has 200 lumens. Does anyone have both to compare the throw between them?
A little off subject but sportsmans warehouse is having a 20% off all streamlight products this weekend. I think it’s just in store, i’ll have to ask my brother and find out for sure.
i just looked at the site! looks like its online as well. Thanks sooo much!
I own one. I love it but… I went back to my regular tlr-1.
The beam is very focused compaired to the regular tlr-1. Thats great when I’m outside, cuz it throws “crazy far” but inside it creates an issue.
It is too bright in the focused center of the beam. It washes out my Aimpoint (comp m4s) very easly against the white walls of the house. I have to crank it up to setting 10-13 to see the dot fast. Also just looking at the light against a wall F-s my night vision up too much.
I kept if for outdoor use but indoors I get “more for less” with the regular tlr-1. Also the regular TLR-1 has better battery life.
