Streamlight’s TLR-7A 2020
Streamlight’s TLR-7A Streamlight’s implementation located the
pressure switches on the side of the electronics By: Sal Palma module.
Some users, including myself, felt that although
the TLR-7 and TLR-8 performed flawlessly it was in need of improved ergonomics. In November of 2019, Streamlight addressed the ergonomics concerns when they announced the Alpha version of the TLR-7 and TLR-8 designated as TLR-7A and TLR-8A.
In the TLR-7A, Streamlight extended the
activation controls bringing them closer to the trigger guard and giving the shooter two switch profiles, high or low.
Streamlight introduced two new TLR weapon
mounted lights on January 2018, the TLR-7 and TLR-8. The offerings addressed an important need for illumination and laser sighting accessories tailored to the compact pistol market, but usable on any rail equipped firearm. They were extremely well received but if you were used to activating your weapon’s The figure above is the high position switch, light via a paddle switch, adapting to the TLR-7’s which is my preferred arrangement. ambidextrous side switches was cumbersome. It took me a while to get use to the new pressure switches.

Streamlight’s TLR-7A 2020 The HK VP-B is wearing the low switch configuration. If you like the paddle activation used on the older lights, the low activation switch will get you there. But whatever route you take, ergonomics have been greatly improved over the TLR-7 offering.
Streamlight sells the TLR-7 A in three flavors
high activation, low activation and FLEX.
Performance, modes of operation and
activation are identical to the TRL-7, as is the Safe off feature, rail mounting strategy and IPX7 water resistance. The TLR-7A is powered by a single CR123A lithium battery, which delivers 1.5 hours of run time.
Like the TLR-7, the 7A only operates in a 500
lumen high mode; available in constant on by depressing and releasing the activation switch; momentary by depressing and holding the switch, and strobe, once enabled, is accessed by two rapid switch presses.
In adding the TLR-7A to its TLR line of weapon
The FLEX option gets you both high and low tail mounted lights, Streamlight recognized the switches. Changing them out is very simple, need for improved ergonomics. As compact remove three small hex screws and pull the tail pistol frames infuse the market, the need for switch off the light’s body. It will expose the high performance accessory light with a electronics. My only caveat is to be careful not compact foot print is evident. Streamlight to misplace the two tail switch actuators as meets that need with the release of the TLR-7A they’re small. Streamlight ships the tail switches without compromising the all-important with a foam insert to ensure the actuators ergonomics. –SP remain in place; that foam insert should be removed prior to installation.
