The BlackHawk Night-Ops Xiphos NT Weapon Mounted Light has been discontinued by Blackhawk
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.
