Armytek Viking PRO torch set warm light
Armytek Viking PRO is a tactical torch and accessory set for hunting and other outdoor uses. The torch produces a soft, wide beam with a pronounced central hotspot and extensive spill. This beam profile is particularly suitable for short and medium distances of 50–70 metres, when you need to illuminate not only the target but also its surroundings.
Construction, optics and durability
The one-piece aircraft-grade aluminium body has a matt anodised finish without sharp knurling. The standard body diameter of 1 inch allows the use of compatible mounts and accessories. A specially designed reflector, together with a powerful LED and tempered glass with an anti-reflective coating, produces a wide beam; at a distance of 100 m, the illuminated area has a diameter of 20 m.
The electronics maintain stable brightness even when the battery is not fully charged and, according to the manufacturer, at temperatures of -40 °C as well. Reinforced springs and control electronics housed in a reinforced enclosure with protective potting compound ensure resistance to recoil from firearms of all calibres.
The IP68 protection rating ensures protection against water, dirt and dust. The manufacturer states that the torch remains functional after submersion to a depth of 25 metres and withstands a fall from the 10th floor.
Power is supplied by standard 18650 Li-Ion rechargeable batteries with a discharge current of 10A. The included magnetic USB charger is used for recharging.
Operation and remote switching on a firearm
The raised tail button makes it easy to switch on the torch while holding it in your hand. It is a silent electronic button with two stages of pressure, which operates in a similar way to a mechanical switch. A total of 6 lighting modes are available (3x standard, 1x turbo, 2x strobe).
For operating the torch when mounted on a firearm, the set includes an MRS-01 magnetic remote pressure switch. It allows both momentary illumination, only while the button is pressed, and continuous operation.
Extensive accessories in a carry case
The AWM-03 magnetic mount allows the torch to be quickly attached and removed in a single movement. Made from lightweight, durable materials, it is designed for Armytek torches with a body diameter of 25.4 mm.
The green filter is intended for hunting in dense woodland; the manufacturer describes its light as almost invisible from the side and not perceived as a threat by animals.
The red filter is used for hunting and map reading. According to the manufacturer, red light is gentle on night vision, usable in poor visibility and barely visible to animals.
The damage-resistant tactical ring supports a comfortable tactical grip.
The nylon holster can be attached to a belt of any width, to MOLLE webbing or to equipment using a durable steel ring.
The steel clip with a wear-resistant black titanium finish is used to attach the torch to clothing, equipment or a belt.
The adjustable paracord lanyard has a steel carabiner for quick attachment to and removal from the torch.
The two included 18650 Li-Ion rechargeable batteries each have a capacity of 3500 mAh, and the plastic carry case provides storage for the entire set.
