Streamlight TLR-8A Flex 500 Lumen Tactical Light Green Laser

The Streamlight TLR-8A Flex combines a high-output 500-lumen LED with a green laser sight in a compact tactical package. This weapon-mounted light delivers superior target identification and precision aiming capabilities for professional and civilian applications.

What Makes This Different

The TLR-8A Flex stands apart with its ambidextrous rear switch design and flex programming that allows users to operate light only, laser only, or both simultaneously. The green laser provides 5x better visibility than red lasers in daylight conditions, while the TEN-TAP programming system offers multiple operating modes. The anodized aluminum construction withstands repeated recoil and harsh environmental conditions better than polymer alternatives.

Key Features

• 500-lumen white LED with 140-meter beam distance for superior target identification
• Green laser sight with <5mW output for enhanced daylight visibility
• Ambidextrous rear paddle switches for left or right-handed operation
• TEN-TAP programming system with multiple light/laser combinations
• Black anodized aluminum housing rated IPX7 waterproof
• Universal rail clamp fits Picatinny and Glock-style rails
• CR123A lithium battery provides 1.5 hours runtime on high setting

Field performance testing shows consistent activation under stress conditions with the oversized paddle switches. The unit maintains zero through thousands of rounds across various calibers from 9mm to .45 ACP. Law enforcement agencies report reliable function in temperatures from -40°F to 120°F, while the sealed construction prevents moisture intrusion during adverse weather operations.
