Streamlight 69424 TLR-7 X 500-Lumen Compact Tactical Weapon Light with High and Low Paddle Switches

Condition: New
Brand new, factory-sealed. The Streamlight 69424 TLR-7 X is a compact, 500-lumen tactical weapon light with high and low paddle switches. Gain control and visibility in any low-light environment.

The Streamlight 69424 TLR-7 X is expertly engineered for tactical performance. This tactical light shines with a commanding 500 lumens, making it an immediate upgrade for handguns and personal defense. Its bright, focused beam gives a clear line of sight, even in complete darkness or challenging indoor spaces.

This model is built with heavy-duty anodized machined aluminum. The sturdy frame resists scratches, impacts, and rough use. Whether you’re in law enforcement, the military, or a civilian gun owner, this light stands up to tough conditions. Its compact profile works smoothly with many popular full-size or compact handguns. Compatibility covers most models with a standard rail. Its size lets you holster your firearm without obstruction.

Power versatility is a highlight of the TLR-7 X. It uses either a CR123A lithium battery or Streamlight’s SL-B9™ USB rechargeable lithium-ion pack. Switch easily between the convenience of rechargeable options and the reliability of disposable batteries. Both battery types provide stable, intense 500-lumen output. The light also has 5,000 candela and a reach up to 140 meters. The result is clear target identification from a distance.

Interchangeable rear paddle switches set this model apart. Choose a high or low paddle to match your shooting grip and style. The switches are included and simple to swap out. Left and right-handed users adjust them for comfort. This tactical light also includes a user-enabled strobe. Activate or disable strobe mode as needed. Strobe can disorient threats and give you the upper hand when seconds count.

Safety is central to the TLR-7 X’s design. The tool-free rail grip clamp system lets you attach and remove the light fast, keeping hands behind the muzzle. No tools are needed. This feature lowers accidental discharge risk when installing or detaching under stress. The light has a ‘safe-off’ setting to prevent unintentional activation. This preserves battery life and keeps the light ready for when it’s needed. Secure storage and transportation are also easier with this safeguard.

Performance remains high in all conditions. The TLR-7 X achieves an IPX7 waterproof rating. It will operate after submersion in one meter of water for up to 30 minutes. Rain, humidity, and outdoor use are no concern. The Borofloat® glass lens resists heat and impacts, providing crisp, even illumination. The design is shock-mounted to defend against drops or heavy recoil.

This light’s advantages don’t stop at output and toughness. Its user-centric features create a confident and seamless shooting experience. The compact shape adds little weight, so balance and weapon handling are not compromised. Ease of use, multiple battery options, and fast attachment help make it a favorite among tactical professionals.

Many shooters praise this versatile, compact tactical light for real-world reliability. Field reports highlight consistent beam quality, easy operation, and minimal snagging during draw.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• Question: What firearms are compatible with the TLR-7 X?
  Answer: The TLR-7 X works with most full-size and compact handguns that have Picatinny or Glock-style accessory rails. Popular models include the Glock 17, Sig Sauer P320, and Smith & Wesson M&P. It will not fit every compact or subcompact, so check your rail type before purchase. Its design allows quick switching between guns using the same basic rail size, making it ideal for multi-firearm owners. This flexibility is a key reason law enforcement trusts this tactical light for service weapons.
• Question: How do I change between high and low paddle switches?
  Answer: Changing the paddles is easy. Make sure the light is turned off and remove it from your firearm first. Use the included multi-tool to unscrew the paddle. Slide the new paddle into place and tighten. Each paddle is designed for a specific grip angle. Some users prefer the high paddle for rapid thumb activation. Others like the low paddle for a lower profile and different finger placement. Both paddles are ambidextrous, so left and right-handed shooters can adjust as needed without extra parts.
• Question: Will the TLR-7 X function if it gets wet during use?
  Answer: Yes, the TLR-7 X has an IPX7 waterproof rating, which is an industry-leading seal. This means you can use your weapon light in the rain, in the mud, or even after a short submersion. The battery compartment is sealed tight to prevent leaks. The unit has been tested for up to 30 minutes underwater at a meter deep. This durability ensures you aren’t left in the dark if the weather turns bad or your gear takes a fall into puddles, streams, or wet ground.
• Question: Can the strobe function be turned off if I don’t need it?
  Answer: Absolutely, you can activate or deactivate the strobe depending on your mission. The feature is accessible through a simple programming step explained in the user manual. Some users keep strobe disabled during routine use to simplify operation. Law enforcement and tactical users may want to activate it before high-risk activities. Having this customization means you can make your light suit your training, needs, and environment. This flexibility is not always found on compact weapon lights.
• Question: How long will the TLR-7 X run on each battery type?
  Answer: With a CR123A battery, expect around 1.5 hours of continuous runtime. If you use the SL-B9 USB rechargeable battery, you will get about 1 hour. Actual run time can vary with cold weather and battery age. A battery change is fast. This lets you stay operational with minimal downtime. The multi-fuel compatibility is another reason users choose Streamlight tactical models for duty and personal defense.
