Lightforce is Australia`s leading designer
Lightforce is Australia’s leading designer and manufacturer of innovative portable high intensity lighting systems. With more than thirty years’ experience in the sporting world, Lightforce is now a global leader in portable lighting solutions. Lightforce is the only business that design and manufacture the world’s best award winning spotlights in Australia. Lightforce is dedicated to ongoing research, development and innovation. When you are looking for the best in sporting light performance, you need look no further than the Huntsman series by Lightforce. The Huntsman series is a mix of tried and tested Lightforce design sitting side by side with the latest in LED technology and compact, lightweight innovation. The series is purpose designed for firearm mounting and protected from recoil shock. They are not simple torches that have been adapted to fit onto a rifle: they are professional, purpose designed lights. Lightforce stands for innovation, rugged quality and performance. The Huntsman series lives up to this name. With PRED9X your vision goes beyond just eye-shine to species recognition of game in thick cover. Proven in the harshest conditions around the world, the Huntsman series ticks every box on the outdoorsman’s checklist. Lightweight, durable, portable, with rifle and scope mount options, attachable filters and even a silent RF switch, the range has a product for every need. The PRED6X and the PRED9X are the newest editions to the Lightforce sporting light family. They are very light and compact, a fact that won’t be lost on you when you mount it to your firearm and begin the hunt. The PRED9X is the world’s first purpose designed, purpose built firearm mounted light and the technology and innovation which has gone into it sets it apart from every other light on the market. No other light delivers a beam as powerful and tight as the PRED9X. The PRED9X is very capably backed up by the smaller PRED6X, still a superior light to all others of its kind on the market. The tight beam when used with a quality riflescope makes it easy to acquire a target. The PRED9X offers a natural light and far more definition and contrast. 4 • Lightforce Firearm Mounted Lights | Forged in the Australian Outback After thorough testing, it is obvious to me that this light is a winner. It is very lightweight and not as bulky as the spotlight I’m using currently. It was very easy to walk and stalk during dusk. The PRED9X has a design that sits well on the scopemount bracket – it compliments your rifle, and does not look ugly at all on your scope. Norton Izaks, Varmint Hunter, Namibia Lightforce Firearm Mounted Lights | Forged in the Australian Outback • 5 Turning an LED light source into a sharp focused beam has long been a challenge in the lighting industry, but with Lightforce’s innovation and design expertise, this seemingly impossible task has been accomplished. Lightforce is known for their in house research and development process. Calling on a thirty year history of creating parabolic reflectors that capture and harness the light, Lightforce designed and built a reflector specifically for use with LEDs. The PRED9X has 18 months of research, design, engineering and development sitting behind it, making it the best in sporting light performance. “The Lightforce PRED9X is a lightweight firearm mounted light that mounts easily to your scope or rail. It’s wireless activation switch is impressive and I was able to shoot small targets out to 150 yards at night. This light is streets ahead!” Ozzie Reviews, Australia “This lamping system is far more advanced than any other I have seen or used. The flexibility and simplicity “With a scope of excellent quality and the PRED9X, a hunter can go hunting with his mind at rest” in the design and manufacture has to be applauded” Robert Farquhar, Professional Hunter, Scotland Ferdinand Monney, Suisse Police, Switzerland When hunting predators, vermin, deer and boar the PRED9X will ensure you have a tight beam that gives visibility over 200 metres away. The PRED9X utilises the latest in LED technology. The light uses a superior high colour rendering index (CRI) diode to improve contrast and clarity when hunting your prey: it allows you to see a brown fox through brown undergrowth. LED lighting is also extremely long lasting. Because LED has a low current draw, a smaller power source such as an on board rechargeable battery can be used to power the light. This means no wires and a long battery life of up to 2 hours continuous use! The PRED9X and PRED6X are good lights for medium range hunting or hunting on foot. Their lightweight build and compact size mean they fit snugly to the rifle, keep the rifle balanced and won’t create too much extra weight for you to carry. The silent remote operating switch, unique to the PRED9X, ensures you will not spook game when turning on and off the light. Once you have experienced the Huntsman series in action there will be no alternative for you. They are simply the best firearm mounted lights in the world. When you are not prepared to compromise, there really is only one choice! The PRED9X has a tight hot spot which lines up with the crosshairs in the scope. The PRED9X and PRED6X beams eliminate wasted spill light, unlike other generic brands of firearm mounted light. The PRED9X is the flagship firearm mounted light (FML) from Lightforce. Designed, engineered and manufactured in Australia, this medium range LED light blows away all other comparable lights in the FML hunting lights category. The PRED9X operates wirelessly: no wires to get in your way when hunting. You can operate the PRED9X without taking your hand away from the firing position using the wireless switch which has a range to five metres and can be attached to your scope or rifle with a high tech Velcro strip. The PRED9X has an incomparable run time because of the use of low energy LEDs. There is a run time of two hours when at full power and ten hours when running on low beam and the batteries can be recharged on the run using the in car charger. The LEDs have a lifetime of 35,000 hours use. A quick release mount makes it easy to take the PRED9X on and off your scope. The quick release mount is suitable for both Picatinny and Weaver rails. The scope mount ring fits 25mm, 1 inch and 30mm tubes. High contrast light source allows you to spot camouflaged prey in heavy cover. The inbuilt shroud controls stray light producing a tight spot, giving you better range than regular LEDs. This allows you to see beyond 250 yards. The high CRI bulb reduces eye shine and aids in species definition when hunting. Moulded from high-tech polymers, the weight of the PRED9X is just 375 grams including on-board batteries (2 x type 2200mAh, Lithium Ion 18650). The compact dimensions give the PRED9X a vertical footprint with clearance for 56mm objective riflescopes. The light measures just 108mm x 69mm x 199mm from the top to the bottom of the clamp.
