Elzetta is pleased to announce further expansion of our line of weapon-grade Modular Flashlights. New Elzetta Alpha Flashlights are the smallest Flashlights we have ever produced but their performance is huge! Powered by a single CR123A battery, Elzetta Alphas produce 315 lumens (Elzetta’s patent-pending AVS Technology expands output to 380 lumens when the Alpha is powered by a LiFePO4 RCR123A rechargeable battery which may be used for non-critical applications.) Combine an Elzetta Alpha with an Elzetta ZRX Mount for a weapon lighting system that weighs less than 5 ounces!  Choose Standard or Crenellated Bezel Ring, Standard or Flood Lens, and any of six Tailcap options, making 24 unique Alpha configurations starting at just $130. Configure yours online.  Alpha 1-Cell Models join Elzetta Bravo and Charlie Modular Flashlights as The Toughest Flashlights on the Planet, featuring fully-potted electronics and solid-acrylic optical lenses (no reflectors). All Elzetta products are Made in USA with lifetime guarantee.  |

Can the user easily change lenses?
I have been using Surefire Back ups for my every day lights for my job conducting weld inspections and I have already broken two lenses just from dropping short distances onto concrete. What is the run time on low and on high? |

What is the run time on low and on high? Yes, the optical lenses are easily field-replaceable and can also be interchanged between Standard and Flood. Alpha runtime is 51 minutes on High and 36 hours on Low. |

Just got my Alpha in the mail and i am impressed with this little guy in every aspect.......so small, built like a tank, looks great, and is very bright in my 6:30pm outdoor testing so far and around the house with the lights off. It throws useable light plenty far and my AK / thorntail mount are going to thank me..........that being said, I think I will be ordering a bravo next paycheck for the VEPR12 shotgun im going to buy when I am blacked out drunk tonight, that I cant afford!!!!
The standard lens is the perfect balance between hot spot up close and flood in distance |
