Streamlight TLR-7 HL-X (throw-oriented TLR-7)

[msstate56]

I tried a Modlite WML and strongly disliked the switch.

I keep wanting to like the modlite pistol lights, but this complaint about the switch keeps coming up.

I have a modlite legacy head on a handheld that I love, but I don’t think the pistol lights are there yet.

Anybody using the Sig Foxtrot2R long term? Just got one and the output (at least initial) at 700L / 20K Candela is pretty impressive for a single-cell. Dual fuel doesn't hurt either, and switching seems well thought-out. What's not to like? It fits in the LAS Saya 2.0 holster I have for X-Macro + TLR7A, but not in the Saya 2.0 for G17+TLR7A. It does work in the Tenicor Certum 2 for G17 + (just about any) compact light.

Their site says $309 for the PL350C.

At those specs, you can get the same performance from a TLR-1HL, at just around $150, and considering what they charge for the PL350, you are close to the price of a Surefire X300T, with vastly greater performance.

I don't understand why someone would go with this, over those other options.

Bingo.

PL350c is a miss. 875 lumens, 18,000 candela, 30-45 minute run time. and it's not really smaller enough to matter. All I think a lot of us wanted from them was a little bit shorter head. I'm sure this is a complicated and expected process, but I've always felt like being incompatible with the Safariland 7TS duty holsters was a giant whiff on the PL-350.

TLR-1HL has more lumens, more candela, half the price, 2-3x the runtime. Even the TLR-7HLX or whatever we're calling it has tangible benefits over the PL350c in its size and switching options at half the price.

Gonna piggyback on this thread. Apologies for a slight drift.

I have a TLR-7 (not Sub, not A, not Flex, not X, just basic ass original vanilla TLR-7). I think I'd like to permanently pair it with my G19G5 (non MOS) as a light bearing carry rig for my wife and I's evening walks. I did a search and found a 2021 thread saying the Tenicor Certum was a good kydex option. Is that still considered solid?

Tenicor Certum, Henry Spark, JM Custom. Can’t go wrong.

Thank you. I have been quite happy with my last two JMCKs but I do like variety as well.

The HLX light head can be installed on any TLR7 or RM light and boost the candela. They have a SKU for the HLX head only but it hasn’t been available yet.

I’ll be interested when that SKU becomes available as an individual part.
I have (counts…) 4 TLR-7s, and would like to try the “new, improved” head on one. Not particularly interested in buying another light, though.

I have both a TLR7 and TLR7A. The switch design on the A is significantly better for use on a typical pistol. The older switching is ideal for a rifle or AR pistol.
