As here, reviewers demonstrate that the switches are a side-press, but I have no problems with a froward push on either my TLR-8 or TLR-8G. A forward push for me is more optimal as it does not interfere with my sights or laser positions. I just push forward on the switch nub for either momentary or constant on. It works. It is a rocker type switch. I’ll use a two finger pinch with my support hand, to activate strobe (once activated), once the unit is on with lamp already selected. Both my units hold zero, even thru unmounting and remounting as verified with my Optic, love them.
Nice video, but it would’ve been nice if you were trying to display how good the laser is to turn the flashlight off so that we can see just how good the laser really is on a normal outdoor setting or at night setting without the flashlight being on
Just got mine today and haven’t mounted it yet. Hopefully I won’t have any issues mounting it on my Ruger security nine pro subcompact with Trijicon sites. I also have a Glock that I would like to be able to mount it on but it’s not as critical
Great review sir. Just purchased the Sig 365 x micro comp and am new at this and am boggled at the ad Ons for it. my big concern is? I would like to mount a holosun sight on it. how would that work with a tlr-8ag. and if you could use both, how would you zero them together. thanks for this informative review.
My secret for zeroing lasers and reflex sights is the Sightmark Laser Boresighter. It is really great for zeroing at a specific distance. You do need to verify in live fire with your ammo and tweak it a little. - DK www.sportsmans.com/shooting-gear-gun-supplies/gun-parts-magazines/vises-tools/sightmark-chamber-laser-boresighters/p/p1363508
I've Been looking for a holster that fits my p226 with a TRL 8 light. Any suggestions? Can't find many suggestions. I would like a t- rex holster but idk if it would work with my build. Any help is appreciated 👍
There isn't a size, per se, for this combo. You would need to find a holster that works for that gun and light combination. Or you may need to have a custom kydex holster made. Fobus makes a Glock holster that leaves the light uncovered and takes it out of the equation, and just locks into the slide. - DK
Laser will lose zero folks.. check the internet for defect issues before buying. Bought two before I found out the elevation will loose zero for you.. these suck.
Great video right to the point and precise without all the talk that means nothing. You just got a subscriber.
Im gonna buy this and put it on my mossber 590! Very confident in this light if I need to use it for home defense!
Really good, concise review. Thanks for the video. Do you know if it's possible to adjust the laser for zeroing?
Yes you can! it comes with a small Allen wrench and there are adjustment screws for windage and elevation. - DK

question will it fit my springfield hellcat?
When doing an ad, are you advertising the spokesperson or the product? We see too mich sales person, not enough gun.
I have the TLR-8A and I can’t get my strobe to work does it allow strobe?
Yes. Two rapid presses on the activation switch. - DK
9 FAST presses on the button then on the 10th press, hold the button until it stops flashing. Then it is programmed for strobe with 2 presses
Thanks after having it for a year I finally got it 😅
Just got it! Thanks
Great video 👍
Will it fit the hellcat pro ?
Had issues I activated the strobe my by laser shut off one the TLR-8AG and can’t figure out how to keep the laser on the the strobe

Great video? Which model Glock was used in this?
G19 - DK
Four Brothers Holster for TLR 8 & 8A & SUB
Can this be used on a Smith and Wesson EZ shield .380 pistol?
Does it take rechargeables?
Is that will fit to glock 26 gen5? Thank you
No. The G26 doesn't have a rail on the front. - DK
How did you get a red dot on the gun without a slot cut slide?
With glocks it’s as easy as replacing the rear sight with an optics mount
How do you change the battery
Unscrew the lens
Does anyone know which size this combo is compatible with? For holster selection?
There isn't a size, per se, for this combo. You would need to find a holster that works for that gun and light combination. Or you may need to have a custom kydex holster made.

I got my holster from r&r holsters
Look better installed in the Smith & Wesson M&P 2.0

Mine doesn't I hope took advantage of the warranty 😢
But I actually have the tlr8-ag I don't know if it's different
Looks like they don't make that light anymore (8) only the 8A style [ 04/30\2023 ] am I right?
Whats the difference between the 8 and 8A?
twice the price of olight, half the lumens, half the candela, not rechargeable, overpriced bull shit
Won’t spontaneously explode though
@@porpoision anything u put the wrong garbage batteries in will explode dude
I don’t like how that red dot is sitting on the slide. I prefer the cut slide 🛝
What slide?
Mine wont go on strobe
same here, no amount of quick presses seems to work. Tlr-8a flex. maybe the 'flex' doesnt have strobe?
@@fechtenyes it does
