Streamlight VIR Pro Light FAQs
What are lumens and how do 1,100 lumens benefit me?
Lumens measure how much total light a flashlight produces. With 1,100 lumens, this VIR Pro Light creates a massive wall of bright white light. This high output helps you light up wide spaces, search large rooms, and temporarily blind a threat in the dark.
What is the candela rating of the Streamlight ProTac VIR Pro?
The candela rating is 40,000. Candela measures how focused the light beam is. A high 40,000 candela rating means the light punches through smoke, fog, and deep darkness. It lets you see targets up to 400 meters away without the light spreading out and losing its power.
What is an IR illuminator and what does 2300 mW infrared illuminator mean?
An IR illuminator makes a special light that human eyes cannot see. You can only see it when wearing night vision goggles. The 2,300 milliwatts (mW) tells you the power of the Streamlight Infrared beam. This high power gives you a very clear, bright picture through your night vision gear, making this a highly effective Streamlight IR Flashlight for stealth operations.
How long does the battery last on the Streamlight VIR Pro IR mode?
When using the high Streamlight IR Light setting, the battery lasts for 2 hours with the rechargeable SL-B26 battery. It lasts for 1.25 hours if you use two standard CR123A batteries.
How do I prevent the white light from turning on while using night vision?
The Streamlight ProTac VIR Pro Light has an integrated safety cutoff. When you turn the dual-mode switch to the infrared setting, it physically blocks the white light from activating. This keeps you completely hidden, so you never accidentally reveal your position to the enemy.
What is special about the Streamlight Jack-Cap?
The Jack-Cap is a special tail cap on the back of the light. It gives you two different ways to turn the light on at the same time. You can press the standard push-button on the cap, or you can plug in a remote pressure switch. If one method fails, you always have a working backup.
What is TEN-TAP® Programming?
TEN-TAP is a system that lets you choose how your light operates. By tapping the button quickly, you can pick from three different factory programs. You can set it to only use high power, or to use a mix of high and low power. This allows you to set the Streamlight ProTac rail mount VIR Pro multi-fuel long gun light exactly how you want it for your specific mission.
