Baldr IR Tactical Light

Now I know that it is listed as a IR LIGHT and when you start to read you get excited because BOOM it has a IR LASER too. But what everyone has to understand that is new to nightvision is there are different classes of lights and lasers! Yes the better lights and lasers will take just AA or AAA but when you are at this price point you need to do your research on visible light spectrums and the same goes with lasers. Generally speaking anything above 150 you will see especially with a cheaper light and anything above. .4 you will be seeing in the lasers! So this is more of a get to know your gear before you drop a used truck money on your rig!!!✋️🤙 if you don't want to spend the cash and do the research, get a LEW light that will through a tube straight down your target area and add a laser if you so wish 🤞 😉

In response to the comment "I think this is a great first outing into IR lights. If I had one suggestion though, it would be that it would be far more useful if it were an IR light (illuminator) plus IR beam. I have noticed that this is the only IR product Olight has produced and it seems like a great market for illuminators that Olight could dominate as well as it has for visible light products." This is not the first Olight IR product. This is a process with Olight. We are walking down this road together. The clamp or screw debate is in progress, I think that they are trying to find a way to bridge that gap. I have found them to be very customer oriented and want to be a success in the American market. Give them SPECIFIC details on what you want, they are listening.

truly disappointed, this light laser combo has a lot of potential. the laser won't hold a zero. the light is decent, the laser is decent, battery life is decent. The laser will not stay zeroed, even worse after contacting the warranty dept they refused to fix or replace the laser. If everything worked, it would be a decent set up and could set this company apart from the others. Sadly, it's just a money trap.

I read the comments below on the CR123A batteries Mine closed on 2 different brands of CR123A batteries and function tested OK Yes i had to push a little hard but it closes and latches just fine for me. I think with a little wear in time the door will close just fine.

This flashlight does NOT take the CR123A batteries as advertised. It will only take the OLight produced CR123A batteries which are slightly shorter than normal CR123A batteries.

This item is a massive disappointment. The actual light itself is bright and throws very far. The IR is very strong and a finer dot then most others i've found at a similar price point. The issue is this flashlight does NOT take the CR123A batteries as advertised. It will only take the OLight produced CR123A batteries which are slightly shorter than normal CR123A batteries. The battery door absolutely will NOT close on any CR123A battery other than the provided OLight ones. To me this is just kind of scummy because its forcing me either to buy the OLight batteries directly from them, or buy their rechargeable batteries to use in the light. Do not purchase this item if you want something that takes batteries.
