Streamlight’s new TLR-2 HL G combines a high-intensity green laser for improved day-time visibility with an LED white light designed to put out 720 lumens in a wide-beam pattern. The TLR-2 HL G can be utilized using the light only—including a strobe mode—the laser only or employing both simultaneously. Two CR123A lithium batteries power the unit, and battery life depends on the mode chosen—varying from 90 minutes in dual mode to 17 hours when using only the laser. The unit mounts easily to guns with a Picatinny or Glock-style rail. Constructed of aircraft aluminum with a black anodized finish, the Streamlight TLR-2 HL G weighs 4.78 ozs. and measures 3.4" in length. Price: $580. Contact Streamlight, Inc.; streamlight.com.
