Tactical series of higher output lights. Several models announced in January 2010, but only the G5 was released. The S12 and S18 are presumed to be lights with SST emitters. In January 2011, the X7 and X10 (XM-L lights, similar to G5 and S12 respectively) were announced, but are not yet available. The X10 and S12 use a single 3900mAh 26650 li-ion battery. The S18 uses 6xCR123A or 3x18650 batteries.

'''S12''' - 1x26650 2-mode light with Luminus SST-90 LED and maximum output of 800 lumens and a Low of 120 lumens. The light memorizes the last mode used. Similar to SureFire lights, the tail clicky is for momentary On only when the tailcap is loosened a half turn. To keep the light on, the tailcap must be fully tightened. The 26650 is a special size lithium-ion battery. 4Sevens sells the batteries and chargers separately. At 3900mAh capacity, it has more capacity than a typical 2400mAh 18650 and is driven at up to 5 amps. First available in February 2011. There was also a limited edition copper version with a copper head for better heat sinking and gold plating to prevent tarnishing.
