RIX LIGHT-01 IR Illuminator – Long-Range 850/940nm & White LED

RIX LIGHT-01 IR Illuminator – Long-Range 850/940nm & White LED

The RIX LIGHT-01 IR illuminator combines selectable 850nm infrared, 940nm infrared and white LED output in one focusable, dimmable light. It is designed to add controllable illumination for compatible night vision equipment in low-light and no-light conditions.

Rotate the three-color selector to change modes, adjust the beam from flood to spot and set brightness from 2% to 100% with the tail-cap dimmer or included remote switch. The supplied mounting hardware supports handheld, scope-mounted and rail-mounted use.

RIX LIGHT-01 FAQs

What lighting modes does the RIX LIGHT-01 provide?

It provides three selectable modes in one unit: white light, 850nm infrared and 940nm infrared. Rotate the selector to change modes without replacing the LED module.

What is the difference between the 850nm and 940nm settings?

The 850nm setting generally provides more usable illumination range with compatible night vision, although the emitter can show a faint red glow. The 940nm setting is less visible to the unaided eye but typically provides less range. Actual performance depends on the night vision device and conditions.

Will this IR illuminator improve a thermal image?

No. Thermal optics detect heat rather than reflected infrared illumination, so an IR illuminator generally does not improve a thermal image. The IR modes are intended for compatible analog or digital night vision equipment.

Can the beam focus and brightness be adjusted?

Yes. Rotate the light assembly to adjust the beam from flood to spot. Brightness can be adjusted from 2% to 100% with the tail-cap control or the included remote switch.

What battery does the RIX LIGHT-01 use?

It uses one 18650 battery with a 3.0–4.2 V operating range. Battery capacity, temperature and selected output mode affect runtime.

What is included with the RIX LIGHT-01?

The package includes the LIGHT-01, stepless-dimming remote switch, universal rapid mount, Picatinny rail mount, lanyard, spare O-rings and user manual. The night vision scope pictured in some images is not included.
