The Holosun IRIS is a new three-function IR laser aiming module, finally hitting the civilian market after SHOT Show 2024. It features a 60mW VCSEL illuminator, offering significantly improved performance over older models like the LS321 and competing directly with higher-end units. Its compact design, intuitive controls, and competitive $900 retail price position it as a strong contender in the tactical optics space.
This video provides a comparative performance analysis of IR illuminators, focusing on the BE Meyers KIJI K1-3 and its VCSEL technology. It's compared against the Surefire KM2-C Vampire, Steiner DBAL I2 9007 (civilian), and AN/PEQ-15 (full power). The KIJI's power and beam focus (3-degree and 10-degree options) are discussed in relation to civilian laser-based illuminators and full-power laser modules. The video is aimed at users of night vision equipment and tactical gear.
The Holosun LS321 and Steiner DBAL I2 are compared for night vision applications. While the LS321 offers better ergonomics and build quality, the DBAL I2 excels with a significantly more powerful and focused IR illuminator, crucial for longer distances. Despite the LS321's feature set, the DBAL I2 remains the recommended choice for its superior illuminator performance and domestic warranty support.
