Laser Illuminators and Pointers
Cyclops III
The Cyclops III is a compact handheld laser pointer and illuminator. With over 1 watt of optical power in the 852 nm version, it is the most powerful handheld NIR laser pointer on the market. The beam is adjustable from a collimated spot to a 4.5 degree flood. It is available in several wavelengths including 852, 1064, and 1550 nm. Weapon mount versions of the Cyclops III are also available.
Operational Capabilities:
- Point out targets day and night at ranges over 5 km. Laser beam is visible for over 35 km
- Compact design easily fits in the palm of your hand, ammo pouch, or vest pocket
- CW and pulse modes - small spot size, divergence < 0.5 mrad
- Also functions as a long range IR illuminator with a high power and uniform illumination beam - greatly extends the effective range of night vision devices
Specifications:
- Beam divergence : 0.45 mrad to 4.5 deg FWHM
- Maximum Optical Power (852 nm version) : 1050 mW
- Maximum Optical Power (1550 nm version) : 500 mW
- Run Time (852 nm version) : > 2 hours CW, > 4 hours Pulsed
- Internal Power : (3) 123 Lithium Batteries
