330m Range: Spotlight, floodlight, and mixed light – with customizable interface control
The P17iX has 3 beam patterns: spotlight, floodlight, and combined mixed mode. Powered by a matrix of four five-core M515S LEDs, it gives fine control over output and runtime. In spotlight mode, the tightly focused beam provides long-range target acquisition and perimeter checks; in floodlight mode, it reaches an expansive 125° beam angle, ideal for close-range indoor sweeps and eliminating hot spots. Running both simultaneously at Turbo outputs a combined 5,000 lumens with a beam reaching 330 metres (candela 27,225cd).
The advanced LED matrix provides intense raw power alongside a dedicated LUMIN SHIELD defensive mode, covering everything from wide-area task lighting to long-range throw lighting up areas further in the distance.
The specialized tactical interface offers direct access to critical modes—including the 5,000-lumen LUMIN SHIELD, tactical STROBE, and SEARCH mode—via the secondary Engage Button. Running on dual firmware operating profiles (Basic Mode and Professional Mode), users can customize how settings are stored and deployed.
Triple switch UI is intuitive and precise, with the Main Tail Button and Engage Button for instant tactical deployment, it has a side SET button for adjustment of output and profile selection. Lockout mode is also featured, and mode memory.
