Night-Ops Xiphos NT Weapon Mounted Light
Night-Ops® has developed a revolutionary new pistol light;
The Xiphos™ NT (pronounced Zi-fohs, with a long “i”
and long “o”) “NT” (Next Technology),
continuing the Night-Ops tradition of naming products after the
military tools that changed history. The original Xiphos was a
double-edged sword used by the ancient Greeks in battle. It was
designed to be used with one hand and is thought by many to be
the forerunner of the Roman Gladius. The Night-Ops Xiphos™
NT also has single handed multi-function operation and programming
function changes. Additionally, the powerful beam pierces through
all adversaries and obstructions in its path. Therefore, the name,
“Xiphos™ NT”.
The Xiphos NT is a 3-volt rail-mounted LED pistol light boasting
over 65 lumens of blinding white led light at full power. The
digitally controlled “smart” circuitry has been programmed
to perform different useful functions while at the same time allowing
ease of use, under duress, by the end user. These functions include
the same “strobing” feature as on the Night-Ops Gladius
enabling the user to disorient a potential adversary and/or “visually
distort” the perception of what a potential adversary observes.
The “smart” circuitry has been programmed to optimize
light output for the entire life of the battery giving an incredible
2 + hours of continuous light output. The Xiphos NT is designed
to be activated with a single hand OR both hands using the ambidextrous
digital pressure switch. The switch design is very versatile and
intuitive. It can be activated either laterally across the “X”
axis of the light (left to right or right to left) OR across the
“Y” axis (forward to rear).
The revolutionary design of the Xiphos NT features a NEW patent
pending “Cam-Clamp” mount that allows the user to
quickly install this light onto almost all open and closed rail
weapon mounts including picatinny rails, universal rails, and
many other types of rail mount designs without the need of any
tools. This clamp eliminates the need to slide the light down
long rails, but installs directly in the desired location. The
Xiphos NT has been designed to mount onto a pistol in an offset
manner allowing it to be holstered in the newly designed “light
mounted” Level 3 SERPA™ holster system. The SERPA
holster technology is rapidly becoming the most popular duty,
concealable and tactical holster system on the market for law
enforcement, military, and sport shooting enthusiasts. Designing
the Xiphos NT to work in conjunction with the SERPA system makes
this light/holster combination the most secure, versatile and
most effective light/holster system available, where weapon security
and rapid weapon accessibility are an absolute must.
