Abstract
An advanced capability flashlight and tactical system where multiple flashlights can be controlled remotely is disclosed herein. The system employs a novel remote control configuration wherein signals are modulated to avoid jamming and can further perform in environments with low signal-to-noise ratio. The system additionally employs programmable electronics to the flashlight covered by a polyurethane protection layer to provide functionality in extreme conditions. Different head lamps can be easily switched out to an individual flashlight employing more LED lamps and different wavelengths of light as desired by a user. Additionally, a remote control device is disclosed that can be configured to a rail system of a firearm.
