The Viridian 930-0040 CTL delivers professional-grade illumination for Glock pistols with its variable output white LED system and integrated SafeCharge technology. This compact tactical light mounts directly to standard Picatinny rails without requiring additional adapters or modifications.
What Makes This Different
Unlike fixed-output tactical lights, the CTL features three distinct brightness levels at 120, 210, and 580 lumens to match specific operational requirements. The SafeCharge system eliminates battery concerns through contact charging when holstered in compatible equipment. The anodized aluminum construction withstands repeated recoil cycles while maintaining zero shift.
Key Features
- Variable output white LED: 120/210/580 lumens with 1.5-hour runtime at maximum setting
- SafeCharge contact charging system eliminates battery replacement needs
- Direct Picatinny rail mount fits Glock 17, 19, 22, and 23 models
- Anodized aluminum housing rated for +P ammunition and sustained fire
- Ambidextrous activation switches accessible from standard shooting grips
- IPX7 waterproof rating withstands submersion to 1 meter
- Integrated rail clamp requires no gunsmithing or permanent modifications
Field testing demonstrates consistent activation under stress conditions with both strong and support hand operation. The 580-lumen maximum output provides effective target identification at 25 yards while the lower settings preserve night vision during close-quarters scenarios. The light maintains full functionality in temperatures from -20°F to 120°F with no output degradation.
