The Streamlight 88061 ProTac 1L-1AA delivers professional-grade illumination in a compact everyday carry package that accepts both CR123A and AA batteries. This dual-fuel capability eliminates battery anxiety while the C4 LED technology provides three distinct output levels for any situation.
What Makes This Different
Unlike single-battery flashlights, the ProTac 1L-1AA accepts either lithium CR123A or standard AA batteries without adapters or modifications. The C4 LED produces a focused beam with excellent throw characteristics, outperforming generic LEDs by 20-30% in both output and longevity. TEN-TAP programming allows users to select from three different operating modes, adapting the light to specific mission requirements.
Key Features
- Dual fuel design accepts CR123A lithium or AA alkaline batteries interchangeably
- Three output modes: 350/150/40 lumens with 1.25/3.5/23 hour runtimes respectively
- Type II anodized aluminum construction with anti-roll head design
- TEN-TAP programmable switch offers high/strobe/low, high only, or low/high modes
- IPX7 waterproof rating withstands 1-meter submersion for 30 minutes
- Removable pocket clip and tactical tail cap for versatile carry options
- Serialized for asset tracking and department inventory control
Field testing demonstrates consistent performance across temperature extremes from -40°F to +120°F. The regulated output maintains brightness levels throughout battery life rather than gradually dimming. Law enforcement agencies report reliable function after thousands of activation cycles, while the impact-resistant lens survives drops onto concrete from 2 meters. The focused beam pattern illuminates targets at 50+ yards on high setting.
