Modlite PL 350

[Edwardteach72]

Alright @Will555 I think I'm going to have to do it and hurt some feelings, since more people are starting to tease.


Well the PL350 is about to have some competition as early as end of this year..

Cloud defensive announced they are dropping a pistol mounted light soon.

What they have told us currently the projected specs and what not.

Single 18350 battery (also comes with charger)
Estimated 50,000 candela
1,100 lumens
Designed for EDC
Price they are shooting for $260
Slightly shorter than a Glock 17
Will fit existing on the market duty holsters



And Practically Tactical dropped this trease

Ain't this turning out to be a shitstorm. I only want one light and the associated holster expense so I just may have to put this purchase off a bit.

This is why I felt obligated to mention it here, part if me didn't plan on doing so but after some thinking I felt yea it needed to be mentioned.

I think the biggest thing about this tease is the idea that this light is primarily designed for EDC and not duty, but also could be used for duty if wanted/needed.

So reading as many useful comments as I can on the posts to try and get as much info as I can..

It's going to be significantly smaller than the X300u/TLR-1 HL/PL350

The only thing I would change in that statement is regarding it not being primarily geared for duty use. Anything and everything Cloud makes is probably the most duty rated gear there is. I would say that when it is released I have no doubt it will be the most duty-grade pistol light available on the market but they were also able to make it more EDC friendly by minimizing its size.

Correct that's why I mentioned could be used for duty if wanted/needed and using their wording of designed/optimized for EDC

@Podmonkey I may have found something for you.

Looks like Modlite is coming out with a new head. The PL5K ... Instead of writing it out I'll take a screen grab and well you can see the description

What's crazy is that this head is their lowest output and still smashes other unnamed companies in both rifle or specifically pistol wml.

This head would also make a decent SBR/SMG/PCC whatever you want to call it head

 

[Edwardteach72]

I'm not a Patreon so I haven't seen it yet butttt the next couple of days I am guessing his video will be out

 

[Edwardteach72]

Also anyone who may be thinking of grabbing a PL350. Here is the link for some Thyrm Clens (ie lens protectors)

There are some other fun tips and tricks such as chapstick and what not but I've been using the Clens for some time now and they do an awesome job and cost is really minimal but helps maintain all them lumens and candela


Modlite use CLENS-31

CLENS Weaponlight Protector - THYRM

The page has been up for a while now but shows it out of stock. Who know when this thing will launch. Turned off by the whole Modlite marketing plan. Will probably just wait for the Cloud Defensive light before deciding which light I will buy.

They are currently shipping pallets worth of stock to all their dealers so everyone has stock on launch day

 

[Edwardteach72]

It actually sounds like dealers may already have their stock, and are just waiting for the go ahead from Modlite to go live

So who's getting one? I probably will wait.

Ah! I would like to see some beam pics of that!
I might like something like that on the backpack gun and I'd move the plhv2 over to my HD AR.
I don't really care about color temps though. Cool white has always been fine with me.

Yea I haven't played around with different temperature lights enough to really get any idea on how they are.


But that new head seems like a real nice addition. Like a rock solid Streamlight HLX, but with 1/3 more light, but about the same amount of flood.

HLX - 1,000 lumens and 27,600 candela
PLH5K - 1,500 lumens and 29,000 candela.

I'm really interested in how this beam will look myself

This is unacceptable!

Someone’s getting’ pistol whipped! Fun fact of the day…my brother in law grew up with Geoffrey Arend (The Snozzberries taste like Snozzberries!). Secondly it gives hope to all goofy looking men that they can still marry someone hot, cause he’s married to Christina Hendricks!
