Great light but non compatibility with the 7 holsters is kind of a deal breaker for me. Thanks for putting this out there so people like me go into it knowing what we are getting!!!!
I have been looking forward to this because I have put my rm2 head in my 7a body it bright but doesn’t last long Most open bottom holsters that index from the frame of the light not the bezel should work. Thank for another great video
Heat gun will fit your holster fitment it well fit 7A holsters just warm around the end of the light as you slowly press the gun into the holster it will reshape for the longer bezel
I could but it’s a nice branded custom pattern holster & would stretch out the pattern. Also for that distance it would probably thin out the Kydex too much and create a press thru? I have a new one being made for a particular gun.
If it’s just the length of the light that won’t make it compatible with holsters than we should be able to cut out the bottom part so the light can go through
Can you screw the bezel onto a tlr7 sub with the new rechargeable battery and see if the candela is the same? Thats because i want the better light output on the tlr 7 sub
Werks holsters has a video on trying exactly that, however Streamlight said it’s not recommended that’s why they came out with this version that is engineered for it & is also dual fuel rated.
Tlr-x usb or tlr-sub for my new xmacro? Im having a hell of a time deciding. I love to look of the sub but want the rechargeable batter with the X. What say you? I need to settle on a light so i can decide on the dozen or so holster makers. If you have any experience with tier1 please let me know as well.
I like the X because you can use rechargeable or reg batteries in it, it’s dual fuel. Holsters are such a personal choice. I like armzmen and I have video and a discount code on those vids, that can save you 10% & you get free shipping if you are interested. Thanks for watching.
@BigJohnsonGG but then my thought is once I go with the X and get a holster, they will come out with the sub that takes rechargeable batteries. lol I know they will!
I have to say I don't get it ..after about 300 lm and what 5ooo cn why woukd you need more in a compact or sub compact pistol light? Edc gun fights at 120 yards in the dark? Crazy ..I have a olight has what 66000 Mandela after I bought is I was like ...why ? I get it on a rifle .. I guess when is there enough
I suggest checking out Sage Dynamic's video stating the TLR7 is not a duty light. It shows how important candela is over lumens. It's one thing to identify a person in a pitch black space. It's another thing to see if they are holding a weapon, especially if they are standing behind a set of headlights or something. And it doesn't have to be 120 yards, even at close distances.
