The new UDR Dominator\u00ae boasts a maximum output of an incredible 2,400 lumens, a level previously not attainable via light emitting diode (LED) technology.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis represents a significant milestone for SureFire and is only the beginning of things to come as LED technology continues to evolve and improve,\u201d said SureFire Director of Marketing Ron Canfield. \u201cIt\u2019s yet another first from a company with a long history of firsts, including inventing the first WeaponLight and the first tactical flashlight.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With its ultra-high maximum output and a deep precision reflector to shape the light into a far-reaching beam, the Dominator qualifies as a \u201ctactical\u201d flashlight, given its obvious military, law enforcement, and border security applications. But it\u2019s also well-suited for maritime use, search-and-rescue operations, or any other application where an ultra-bright, portable searchlight would prove useful. Along with its 2,400-lumen max setting, the variable-output Dominator also produces eight other useful output levels and even has a strobe-light setting, designed to disorient an aggressor, and a disable feature to prevent accidental activation.<\/p>\n<p>The Dominator is one of several \u201cdual-fuel-capable\u201d flashlights produced by SureFire, which means it can be powered by an included lithium-ion rechargeable battery or by twelve disposable 123A batteries, for situations where recharging the light between uses may not be an option. A built-in, color-coded LED fuel gauge keeps users abreast of remaining battery power, and the light can be charged via an AC wall socket or a DC vehicle socket. Built to be as rugged as it is powerful\u2014for the obvious outdoor uses for which it is intended\u2014the UDR is constructed of lightweight but strong aerospace aluminum, is hard anodized with a durable Mil-Spec finish, and has O-ring and gasket seals to protect sophisticated internal electronics from moisture and debris.<\/p>\n<p>The UDR Dominator has an MSRP of $1,370 and is currently available for purchase through authorized SureFire dealers. It will also soon be available for purchase directly from SureFire by calling 800-828-8809 or visiting <a href=\"http:\/\/www.surefire.com\" target=\"_blank\">surefire.com<\/a> online.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The new UDR Dominator\u00ae boasts a maximum output of an incredible 2,400 lumens, a level previously not attainable via light emitting diode (LED) technology.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":32675,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[58,744],"tags":[396],"class_list":["post-32674","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-from-the-industry","category-new-products","tag-surefire"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.downrange.tv\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32674","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.downrange.tv\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.downrange.tv\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.downrange.tv\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.downrange.tv\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=32674"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.downrange.tv\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32674\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.downrange.tv\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/32675"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.downrange.tv\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=32674"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.downrange.tv\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=32674"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.downrange.tv\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=32674"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
