Swapping Out Battery Doors on a Streamlight TLR1 Weaponlight

Is that battery door on the TLR-1 HL made of plastic or aluminum like the rest of the light body? I ordered a TLR-1 HL on eBay and it came with a plastic door that arrived broken. Thanks for the good video.

Hey where do you buy spare pins

I run a tlr-1 with laser on my helmet. It’s nice to have the white light and the laser to point out stuff without pointing a weapon. Only issue is I’m constantly bumping the toggle and when grabbing my ear pro off my helmet. Is the pressure switch single toggle lever stiffer or less easy to operate? I’m looking for a better option to stop giving away my location by accident.

How does this not have more likes? It's because of this video that I ordered a new door on Amazon and installed it myself rather than sending it back to Streamlight to fix the busted door, paying more in shipping and being without it for far longer than the two days it took for the new battery door to show up. Thank you for the video.

Wish I saw this video before inserting the pin in the door, now I can't get it back out lol fml.

I wish they had those remote switch-enabled battery doors would work on an Olight Baldr Pro. The Baldr Pros are basically product improved and newer version of the TLR-2s that cost only $120; the one downside with the Baldr is the laser plugs into the part the pressure pad plugs in on a non-laser version and blocks it, making it incompatible with the magnetic snap-on switch non-laser versions have. So if you want pressure pad capability, you have to go to a $350 TLR2 right now

Short but useful video Thanks so much.

This video was short and to the point, and it helped me change my doors out. Thank you.

Hey buddy I just bought a used tlr-1 HL that has the pressure switch already pre-installed can I buy a back battery door from A TLr1 and put it on the HL so I can put it on a pistol??
