NEW from Olight comes the PL X GL! Dual Beams Instant Edge
This new weapon-mounted light features a 3-in-1 system designed for a wide range of situations, combining dual-beam white light (spot and flood) with a green aiming laser. The green laser can be used independently or together with either white-light beam.
For distant targets, run the spotlight with 16,900 candela and a 260m max throw. This gives extended Positive ID distance and lets you really cut into the darkness down long hallways or in the field. To see everything around you, flip to the floodlight mode with 1,200 lumens and illuminate your surroundings! The green aiming laser is adjustable for a precise zero and can be used with either white-light mode or independently.
The Olight PL X GL has a maximum runtime of 95 minutes and recharges via a standard USB-C cable (included with the unit). The PL X GL also has a real-time power indicator so you always know how much juice is left in the battery.
Able to fit a wide range of pistols, the Olight PL X GL offers broad rail compatibility with different rail adapters. Use the adapters to achieve a proper fit with full-size and compact rail systems. The mounting clamp features a heavy-duty ratcheting mechanism with an anti-loosening design to maintain a secure fit on compatible rails under repeated recoil. The PL X GL has also undergone 10,000 rounds of live-fire testing.
The switches of the PL X GL are push/press style. A quick tap activates constant-on, while press-and-hold provides momentary activation that turns off when released. This gives the user both options, allowing them to choose the right illumination style for the task at hand.
Left side of the PL X GL is the Flood/Spot switch. Under the main activation buttons is a left-center-right toggle switch to choose between laser, light+laser, or light. The laser is easy to zero using the included screws and zeroing tool.
Holsters compatible with the Olight PL X GL are available from a wide range of manufacturers! IWB, OWB, and duty holsters are all available now. Take a look at the list!
The Olight PL X GL gives the user unparalleled access to light and laser options at the tips of their fingers. From close home defense to hiking in the woods, the ability to move seamlessly between flood and spot light means you’re ready for anything. Take precision shots or shoot from unconventional positions with the new green aiming laser.
