Why Indiegogo?

Is the LE-1 System only for Police Officers? - NO! Everyone from campers, to oil field workers to road safety minded individuals, will benefit from the LE-1's ease of use, reliability, performance and durability.

Our company has been on an incredible journey, and began with one person, the Tactical Impulse CEO. After serving as a Police Officer & EMT, he recognized ways that such a critical device could be improved and designed the LE-1 for the needs of first responders.

We want all Police, Fire, EMS and other professionals to know that our products are available for them. So please Share, Like, and otherwise spread the word about us!

What is the LE-1?

The LE-1 is designed for law enforcement as a primary duty light. However, its durability, wide range of features and ease of operation has made it a popular choice for many users, such as outdoor enthusiasts, military personnel, tow and truck drivers, and airport ground personnel. There were no shortcuts taken when designing and constructing the LE-1 - It's faceted, solid aluminum reflector focuses up to 595 lumens of neutral white light through an anti-reflective, extra durable 1/16” glass lens to produce a beam which optimally balances spill and throw. The LE-1 head bezel is machined from stainless steel to offer the best resistance against hard impact damage. The LE-1 body is constructed of hard, anodized Type III aircraft aluminum, precisely machined to disperse heat and provide a sturdy, non-slip grip. Further, the sophistication of the switches, PCB and logic controller is unmatched.

With intuitive features, the LE-1 user interface is customizable and easy to operate. For example, when the light is powered ON, the brightness mode can be cycled through HIGH, MEDIUM, LOW, or STROBE by partially depressing the head or tactical tail mounted switch. A unique tactile break in the switch throw clearly communicates to a user where the partial depression point is located, which is also where momentary activations of light occur. When the light is powered OFF, the LE-1’s optional mode memory feature can remember the last mode it was in and power back on in that mode (including momentary activations), or power on in HIGH mode every time (default).

The LE-1’s special purpose accessories work together to make the LE-1 the ultimate multi-purpose advanced lighting tool:

• While recharging the LE-1, the optional LE-1 Cradle Charger conveniently locks the flashlight firmly in place to avoid accidental dislodging. The LE-1 Cradle Charger also comes with a spare battery charging bay, so you are always ready for action.
• The LE-1’s length and operating time may be extended with the Size & Life Extension Pack.
• The electronic Traffic Baton accessory integrates seamlessly with the LE-1 to transform it into an electronic traffic wand, while still allowing LE-1’s main light to be simultaneously used. The Traffic Baton has its own ON/OFF switch and utilizes power from the LE-1 battery to operate its internal array of red LEDs.
• The LE-1 is also “holster aware”, when used with the LE-1 Smart Holster, thanks to Tactical Impulse Smart Light Control TM (SLC) Technology. SLC was designed to eliminate annoying and/or potentially dangerous accidental light activations while lights are holstered on a belt. SLC  ensures that the LE-1 will remain OFF while in the holster, even if a power switch is accidentally pressed on the flashlight. In addition, if the LE-1 is powered ON when holstered, SLC will automatically power the LE-1 OFF.

THE LE-1 IS THE ONLY FLASHLIGHT THAT IS ABLE TO DETECT ITS CUSTOM HOLSTER, AND ACCEPT OR PROVIDE POWER TO TAIL END ACCESSORIES (Patent Pending)

What Our Customers Say

"have used this flashlight for the past 5 months, and I cannot say enough good things about it! Tough, Reliable, and over all very cool flashlight for police work. The best thing I like about it is that it was created and designed in Arlington, TX by a former officer." - Police Officer, Texas, USA

"The light is awesome! I used it continuously for 45 minutes while searching a large field for a person and the light showed no loss of power. The beam also traveled a great distance, and had a wide field of view - not only could I see ahead of me, but also to my left and right. When performing building searches, it lights up the whole area, not just the area in front. It gives amazing coverage so no one can hide in the dark areas while searching. I also love the traffic baton. I would have to remove a traffic cone from my other light if I needed to use the flashlight, losing the visibility of the cone. I dealt with a person lying in a roadway and was able to use both the light to see the person but also had the traffic baton to have protection from vehicles. Tactical Impulse has a winner here!" - Police Officer, Canada

"...It has proven to be a far superior light to most of the lights carried by other officers and... better usability and features at an affordable price." - Police Officer, California, USA

Our Story

Our company began in the beginning of 2011 with a simple goal – to create the best and most advanced duty flashlight available to Police Officers. Our founder used his knowledge gained from working as a Police Officer, EMT, Firefighter and Information Technology professional to address real-world functional needs and to set quality standards. In mid-2011, the LE-1 system design was finalized and 25 prototypes were disseminated to Police Officers, Firefighters and Paramedics for a one year evaluation period. Following the evaluation period, user feedback was incorporated into our first production version released in mid-2013.

Tactical Impulse continues to innovate – already planning multiple products for release in the near future. How near, depends on you and this Indiegogo campaign! Some of these new products consists of additional flashlight sizes embodying the patent pending technology showcased by the LE-1, and others will introduce never before seen product features in the emergency vehicle lighting product space. We are also developing additional tail accessories that will add function and value to new and future LE-1 and LE-2 owners!
