The Viridian X5L Gen 3 combines a high-visibility green laser with a powerful 500-lumen LED light in a single compact unit. This dual-function tactical accessory delivers instant target acquisition and illumination for law enforcement, military, and civilian applications where split-second accuracy matters.
What Makes This Different
The X5L Gen 3 features Viridian's Enhanced Combat Readiness (ECR) technology that automatically activates when drawing from compatible holsters. The green laser provides 5x better visibility than red lasers in daylight conditions, while the CREE LED delivers a focused 500-lumen beam with 120 meters of effective range. The integrated design eliminates the bulk of separate laser and light units.
Key Features
- Class IIIA green laser with <5mW output for maximum visibility
- 500-lumen CREE LED with 1.5-hour runtime on high setting
- ECR instant-on technology compatible with select holster systems
- Ambidextrous controls with separate laser and light activation

The X5L Gen 3 maintains zero through 10,000+ rounds of centerfire recoil while operating in temperatures from -20°F to 120°F. The unit switches between laser-only, light-only, or combination modes via tactile controls that function with gloved hands. IPX4 water resistance ensures reliable operation in adverse weather conditions.
