Streamlight 69424 TLR-7 X 500-Lumen Compact Tactical Weapon Light with High/Low Paddle Switches and Key Kit
Condition: Item appears slightly used. The Streamlight 69424 TLR-7 X is a compact, bright, and durable tactical light for firearms. It delivers 500 lumens, helping you see clearly in low-light conditions.
The TLR-7 X is a powerful tactical accessory for secure target identification and defense. Its compact size means less bulk and snag risk on your firearm. This weapon light features a sturdy body made of anodized machined aluminum for reliable, long-lasting use in tough environments.
The Streamlight TLR-7 X blends performance with flexibility. It suits both professionals and gun enthusiasts. The body has a low-profile shape, so it fits most holsters and firearms without sticking out. The light’s optic creates a focused, bright beam. You also get wide peripheral vision. This ensures you notice threats beyond your main view. The custom optic balances spot intensity for clear target focus but also provides enough side light for situational awareness.
This light offers true versatility. It works with a CR123A disposable battery or Streamlight's SL-B9 USB rechargeable lithium-ion battery pack. The rechargeable pack means you don't have to buy new batteries often. Choose the battery option that fits your needs for each mission. The TLR-7 X gets up to 1.5 hours with a CR123A and about 1 hour with the SL-B9.
The light comes with both high and low paddle switches. These switches mount at the rear for easy thumb access. You get ambidextrous operation, so it works well for both left and right-handed users. Interchange the switches in seconds for your comfort. The "safe off" function rotates the head and cuts power—stopping accidental light activation and saving battery when stored or traveling. Always know your light is secure and off before moving it or storing your gear.
Installation is simple. The TLR-7 X has a special rail grip clamp system. Attach or remove it quickly, no tools needed. There's no need to put your hand near the muzzle during installation, boosting safety and speed. The included key kit supports different rail systems. Mount it securely to many full-size or compact handguns, like Glock models or Smith & Wesson M&P series. Always check your gun's compatibility first for best fit and balance.
Water-resistance is a key benefit. With its IPX7 waterproof rating, submerge the light under 1 meter of water for up to 30 minutes with no fear. Use it in rain, through puddles, or in harsh weather. The TLR-7 X also features a user-enabled strobe. Use the strobe to signal for help or disorient a threat in emergencies. Tactical officers, home defenders, and outdoor shooters can all trust this extra safety tool.
The TLR-7 X weighs about 2.4 ounces (with battery). Its small size means your gun stays light. The on/off switches operate smoothly and the metal parts resist wear. You can find more information on tactical weapon lights like this one at Wikipedia’s Weapon Light article.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
Question: What types of batteries does the Streamlight TLR-7 X support?
Answer: The TLR-7 X is designed for both rechargeable and disposable battery options. You can use a single CR123A lithium battery that offers about 1.5 hours of runtime. For a greener option, try the SL-B9 rechargeable lithium battery pack. This pack charges through USB and gives about 1 hour of continuous use. Carry both types for field work or daily carry, switching when convenient. This flexibility means you’re less likely to run out of light in any situation. -
Question: Will the TLR-7 X fit on my firearm?
Answer: The TLR-7 X is suitable for many full-sized and compact handguns—Glocks, M&Ps, and more. The supplied key kit includes several rail keys to ensure a snug fit for different brands and rail styles. Check your firearm's manual or Streamlight’s compatibility list before mounting. For best results, test the fit and hold before final use at the range. If in doubt, consult a gunsmith or check with the manufacturer. This ensures you get the most reliable and balanced installation for your weapon. -
Question: How do I use or benefit from the “safe off” mode?
Answer: The "safe off" mode adds an extra layer of safety. You activate this feature by rotating the head until it clicks, locking the paddles. This stops the switch from turning on the light by accident. Use it when you store your gun, during travel, or in any situation where an unintentional flash could be dangerous. Staying in “safe off” mode protects battery life, helps you remain covert, and keeps your system secure. Always check that “safe off” is active before putting your equipment away, and deactivate only when ready to use the light.
The Streamlight TLR-7 X is a reliable and high-performance tactical weapon light for demanding users. Its blend of compact size, adaptability, high lumen strength, and safety functions separates it from other options. Choose it for safety, defense, or field work if you care about performance and flexibility. Keywords: Streamlight, TLR-7 X, tactical, weapon
