Steiner LDI DBAL-I2 Dual Beam Visible Red Laser Black
Please note that some images we provide show the DBAL-I2 Dual Beam Laser with it's optional accessories. Only the unit itself is being sold in this package.
The DBAL-I² (Dual Beam Aiming Laser – Intelligent) Class 1 IR Laser is the first Mil Spec infrared aiming laser available to the commercial market. Class 1 IR lasers feature a 0.7mW rating which is eye safe and not restricted by the FDA. While this is a lower output than the standard 5mW+ IR lasers used by Warfighters and LE Professionals, it is perfectly adequate for targeting at ranges out to 450 yards. This encompasses most ranges at which users will engage targets during night shooting and training. Functionally, the DBAL-I² Class1 Laser features two output modes: Visible and IR. The IR Laser is 0.7mW while the visible is a full power Class IIIa laser. The DBAL-I² Class1 is available with either a visible red or visible green laser. The IR pointer is low powered to make it eye-safe, but will perform well out to 450 yards. The pointer is easy to spot and has a good divergence/shape. The IR pointer works well with a separate LED IR Illuminator at distances, but will become a bit harder to see at close range due to the splash back from the illuminator on walls. This is especially true with light-colored walls. However, it is still easily visible for targeting. The IR pointer is more easily seen in darker conditions. Just like visible pointers, the Class1 laser will tend to wash out the closer it gets to another light source. The Visible Pointer is available in two versions: Red or Green. These are both standard full-power Class IIIa lasers. Based on LDI’s proven DBAL-I², the Class1 version has very few outward differences. The Class1 DBAL-I² utilizes the same exact body housing and optics package as its full-power brother. Physically, the housing is completely Mil Spec anodized precision machined Aircraft-Grade Aluminum with LDI’s excellent HT Throw Lever Mount. These housings are extremely rugged, currently fighting on the front lines of the Global War on Terror. The Mount is a self-adjusting throw lever that is exceptionally strong and requires no tools to adjust for out of spec rails. The only outward difference between the Class1 and standard models are the power setting markings. The DBAL-I² Class1 has markings for High/Low Visible and IR Pointer that allow for 0.7mW high and .2mW low. In the past, some small-time companies have attempted to build home-made modified IR lasers and sell them on the tactical market. These units did not hold zero and were generally poorly constructed- more suited to toys. Now, for the first time ever, a major government contractor is producing civilian-legal IR lasers in quality Mil Spec housings. Finally, the commercial market has something readily available at affordable prices.

Question
I just got my tax stamps back for my noveske sbr and always said im going build the exact rifle i want, all in! The only piece missing is the laser, but ill be very honest and admit this is an area i am not familiar with. I know i want IR but do not have nvgs currently. Will the ir laser on this show with a gen1 set up? Will i need an ir illuminating flashlight as well? I'm certainly not a rich man and trying to figure if a decent set up can be had for a price i can afford. Any info you can pass my way would be greatly appreciated as this price is very tempting. I just want to make sure i do things right. Ive tried to research but get a little lost with the IR terms, wavelengths, visibility distances etc..(im sure im not the only one) great site tho and keep up the good work! Thanks, steve

Hi Steve. Ideally, DBAL-I2 aiming lasers should be paired with a nice Gen 2 or 3 optic. The rest of your questions depend on the exact style of hunting, range to target at nighttime and a few other factors. your best option is to speak to one of our product experts if you have not done so already. They will help you find the best combination of products which fits your needs and budget.
