Our take on the Streamlight TLR-8 Sub Compact Tactical Light Red Laser

The Streamlight TLR-8 Sub is a compact weapon light with a red laser built for subcompact pistols such as the Glock 43X/48 MOS, SIG P365/P365 XL and Springfield Hellcat. It puts out 500 lumens with a 141 m beam and pairs that with a 640-660 nm red laser, so you get a bright white light and an aiming point in one small unit. Ambidextrous rear paddle switches and a tool-free rail clamp set it apart from many rivals that need tools or use side switches. It suits concealed-carry owners who want light and laser on a small gun; the trade-off is a single CR123A battery and a laser that runs far longer than the light itself.

Best forConcealed-carry owners of subcompact pistolsShooters who want light and laser in one unitLeft- and right-handed shooters wanting ambidextrous switchesHome-defense setups on railed subcompacts
Pros
  • 500 lumens and 141 m beam from a very small body
  • Red laser adds an aiming point for low-light shooting
  • Ambidextrous rear paddle switches suit either hand
  • Rail clamp attaches and detaches without tools or hands in front of the muzzle
  • Safe-off bezel prevents accidental activation
  • Anodized machined aluminum body, IPX4 rated
Cons
  • Light runs only 1.5 hours on one CR123A
  • Laser and light share the same battery, so heavy light use drains it
  • Fits only specific subcompact rails, not full-size or non-railed guns
  • Red laser is harder to see in bright daylight than green

What reviewers say

Owners of subcompact pistols generally rate the TLR-8 Sub highly for its small size, bright output and easy mounting. Common complaints center on battery life and the limited list of compatible handguns.

What people mention
  • SizePraisedOwners say it adds little bulk to a subcompact pistol.
  • BrightnessPraisedThe 500-lumen beam is described as strong and clean for a light this small.
  • Battery lifeCriticisedReviewers note the light drains quickly and the laser shares the same single battery.
  • MountingPraisedThe rail clamp is easy to attach and remove without tools.
  • CompatibilityMixedIt fits the listed subcompacts well, but owners of other pistols find it will not mount.
  • SwitchesPraisedThe ambidextrous rear paddles are liked by both right- and left-handed shooters.

About the Streamlight TLR-8 Sub Compact Tactical Light Red Laser

The Streamlight TLR-8 sub is a weapon-mounted light with a white LED and a red laser. It has interchangeable rear paddle switches, so the controls can be set up to suit your shooting style. The paddle switches are ambidextrous.

The body is made of anodized machined aluminum. A safe-off feature on the bezel prevents accidental activation and saves battery. A rail grip clamp attaches and detaches without putting your hands in front of the muzzle. A strobe function is available once the user enables it.

The light puts out 500 lumens with a 141 meter beam and runs 1.5 hours, either as light only or as a light and laser combination. The laser runs 60 hours. It is IPX4 water-resistant and assembled in the USA.
