Streamlight TLR RM HL-X: A Multi-Fuel Long Gun Light

CADRE Dispatch

Streamlight has introduced a new long gun light to its weapon light lineup: the TLR RM HL-X. This tactical light is built to deliver exceptional brightness with up to 1,000 lumens and 22,000 candela, providing a powerful beam that reaches over 297 meters.

The standout feature of this light is its multi-fuel capability, allowing users to choose between two battery options: the rechargeable SL-B9 USB-C Li-Ion battery pack or a standard CR123A lithium battery. The rechargeable battery provides maximum performance, while the CR123A offers extended runtime, giving users flexibility depending on their needs.

Key Features at a Glance

The TLR RM HL-X offers impressive brightness and beam performance, delivering 1,000 lumens and 22,000 candela with a 297-meter beam distance when powered by the SL-B9 rechargeable battery. Alternatively, it provides 500 lumens and 11,000 candela with a 210-meter beam distance using a CR123A battery, with runtimes of 30 minutes and 1.5 hours, respectively.

Users have flexibility with independently operating push-button and remote pressure switches, allowing for momentary or constant-on operation. Built for durability, the light is constructed from 6000 series machined aluminum with a black anodized finish and has an IPX7 waterproof rating, making it submersible up to 1 meter for 30 minutes.

The switch housing is crafted from impact- and chemical-resistant polymer for added toughness. Despite its robust design, the light remains lightweight at just 3.02–3.12 ounces, ensuring minimal impact when mounted on MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny rails.

For added versatility, it is available either as a full system, complete with mounting hardware and switches, or as a light-only option.
