-
LED‑based IR illuminators (not IR lasers) that avoid FDA Class 3R power caps, so they can run higher output than throttled VCSEL units while staying “unrestricted.”
-
Sold as BLAZER LED IR heads, handhelds, and Scout‑pattern weapon lights, often marketed as civilian alternatives to MAWL/KIJI/PEQ‑15‑style illuminators.
-
Output: up to ~350 mW IR for LED heads, with claimed 1000 m+ beam distance depending on configuration.
-
Beam: variable‑zoom optics from ~4° tight spot to 25° flood, plus optional diffusers (CQB flood, 15°, 40°, etc.) for tuning spill vs throw.
-
Wavelength: 850 nm low‑speckle LED, intended to reduce laser “sparkle” artifacts under NODs.
