Nightfox XB5 940nm Low Glow Infrared LED Flashlight
Description
Description
The XB5 940nm is the covert version of Nightfox's compact 5W infrared torch. It is mechanically identical to the XB5 850nm but emits at 940nm, a wavelength that produces almost no visible red glow at the emitter. You trade some range for the ability to illuminate a scene without anyone knowing you are there. If range matters more than concealment, take the 850nm; if you want both wavelengths plus white light in one body, see the Nightfox Spectrum.
A focusable 38mm aspherical lens adjusts from a 120 degree flood to a tight long-throw spot in around three turns, and the stepless dimmer gives continuous control over output. The body is aluminium and O-ring sealed to IPX-6. Infrared light is invisible to the naked eye, so the XB5 must be used with a night vision device. One 18650 lithium battery is required and is not supplied.
