Description
Elzetta Alpha A121 is set up for tactical missions at very close range.
The Elzetta Alpha A121 features a tactically-correct Rotary Tailcap and smooth Standard Bezel Ring, and delivers 535 lumens of neutral-tint white light projecting through a unique optical flood lens that disperses the light over a very broad area. The result is a uniform low-intensity wall of light that is ideal for indoor use and very close range work (an Alpha Standard Lens is available and may be installed when range needs to be extended). The non-latching Rotary Tailcap assures that light is only produced as long as the button is depressed (constant-on operation is achieved by rotating the Tailcap fully clockwise).
When using a high drain IMR RCR123 cell, the Alpha Gen3 A121 unleashes a 10-second burst of 800 lumens before the output is subtly tapered off over a period of approximately 30 seconds, then regulated to a constant 535 lumens. This subtle tapering is designed intentionally, so as to not distract the user with a sudden drop in luminosity during critical operations. The burst mode resets every time the power is cycled off and back on again, so the burst mode can be more easily perceived after the light has been on for at least 20-30 seconds, then cycled off and back on again.
When using a primary CR123 cell as fuel, the A121 will produce a 10-second burst of 535 lumens, then subtly regulate down to a constant 435 lumens.
A high frequency strobe is now fully integrated into the head and can be activated by double-tapping the switch. Simply cycle the light off to disengage the strobe function.
NOTE: There is no “High/Strobe” tailcap for Alpha Gen3! Strobe mode is integrated into the head and is activated with a simple double-click of the switch on ANY tailcap. DO NOT USE ALPHA GEN2 “HIGH/LOW” OR “HIGH/STROBE” WITH ALPHA GEN3! IT WILL DESTROY THE GEN2 TAILCAPS!
