Viridian is reintroducing its original C Series with design enhancements that take it to the next level.

Available in four different models, the series offers the right option for everyone, whether law enforcement, military, or civilian.

Featuring a 6061 aluminum construction with hardcoat anodization, the C Series is ready for hard use in hard environments. Likewise, the IPX4 water-resistant housing ensures that your light/laser can withstand the elements for reliable performance when it counts. Additionally, with an operating temperature range of 14°F – 140°F, the C Series can handle any climate.

Each model in the series is powered by a rechargeable battery and is charged via Viridian’s new quick-release SAFECharge system. The included rechargeable power bank utilizes a magnetic charging connector to charge the C Series. As a result, if you are charging your light/laser in a safe and need your pistol quickly, it will immediately disconnect without fumbling with cables.

The series features Viridian’s INSTANT-ON technology for fast actuation in an emergency. INSTANT-ON utilizes a new holster retention feature that activates the light/laser when drawn. However, for those that prefer complete control, manual ambidextrous buttons provide activation at your fingertips.

C5 Laser

The diminutive C5 utilizes Viridian’s green laser technology for a bright, easy-to-see laser, even in daylight. With a charge time of 90 minutes, the laser will provide 100 minutes of runtime between charges. Likewise, the 1.76-ounce footprint won’t be a drag on your muzzle or affect your aim.
