Tactical Night Vision Company (TNVC) has released their new Torch PRO Extreme Distance Infrared Illuminator. The new Torch PRO is bursting at the seems with new features and greater performance than the legacy model, the ELR Torch-V. A clean, smooth, and focus-able beam of infrared light is emitted from its high-power LED. Seamless mechanical focus allows adjustment between 1 and 10°, offering area or point illumination at distances past 800 yards. Encased in a sleek yet rugged aerospace-grade aluminum housing with Mil-Spec Type III Hard Anodizing, the Torch PRO's virtually indestructible LED provides the user with one of the best civilian-legal IR illumination on the market. A German-made impact-resistant glass lens system produces a crisp beam while the smooth focus ring allows for easy one hand operation. The wide flood allows for area illumination at close distances, while the tight spot aids in identification of targets at long range.
