How HALAR Works?
HALAR is a patented technology that utilizes a proprietary flashing pattern of red and green light for effective eye-safe optical disruption.
The Science
- The eye is most sensitive to green light (555 nm), which appears brighter; contrasting colours like red and green can disrupt depth perception, similar to 3D glasses.
- Flashing colors can distort object perception and slow reaction times (“Kaleidoscope effect”), with certain frequencies and colors amplifying distraction.
Air Force Study of Incapacitating Device Based on LED Technology
A 2020 military study with Air Force personnel tested an optical defensive device for aviation protection. They found that flashing red, green, and blue lights at specific frequencies appear far brighter and cause glare, after-images, and disorientation more effectively than steady white light—being up to 120 times brighter in daylight and 120,000 times brighter at night.

"HALAR gives you more time and space to think, which helps you make smarter decisions on the spot. It’s all about giving you that extra edge when it counts."
Metro SWAT - Assistant Commander
"The HALAR light is undeniably blinding-just one flash had an inmate turning away. I also appreciate the Lo Red light feature for overnight rounds; it lets me see without disturbing sleeping inmates and preserves my night vision."
FTO Coordinator – Jail Division
"HALAR offers a new tactical approach that criminals aren't used to, giving law enforcement the upper hand when it matters most."

FAQ
What is HALAR Mode?
HALAR is a patented technology that uses a proprietary flashing pattern of red and green light that is highly effective for optical distraction and disruption.
How is HALAR’s Optical Disruption Technology different from strobing white light?
1. The human eye is most sensitive to Green light in both daytime (photopic) and nighttime (scotopic) vision. This means that green light produces the impression of the highest “brightness” compared to light at other wavelengths.
2. Exposing the eye to different colors, especially red and green, interferes with depth perception. This is the principle behind 3D glasses at movie theaters, which put red in front of one eye and blue in front of the other to get a 3D effect.
3. Flashing colors interfere with the brain’s perception of objects. Sometimes called the “Kaleidoscope effect,” they slow down a person’s reaction time.
4. The frequency of a flashing light can significantly increase the distraction and disorientation effects. A flashing light at the right frequency—neither too fast nor too slow—can be more disruptive than a steady light.
This means the right frequency of flashing, alternating, red and green light is much more effective than strobing white light in causing glare, visual disruption and disorientation.
How does HALAR work without causing permanent eye damage?
HALAR uses eye-safe LED technology and will not cause any eye damage if used as recommended. We use only genuine, certified Cree® LEDs with factory-tested specifications to ensure eye-safety. In addition, the eye will blink as a reflex response to bright visible light and this protects against over-exposure. Alternatively, subjects will avert their eyes.
Nevertheless, do not stare into the light for prolonged periods.
How many lumens are the red and green LEDS?
The HALAR Stun Mode uses Hi Red (310 lm) and Hi Green (400lm) light.
The low map lights use steady Lo Red (80 lm) and Lo Green (90 lm). These can be accessed through the side-switch only.
Is HALAR TAC-1 waterproof or water-resistant?
HALAR TAC-1 has an IPX4 rating. This means the device can handle splashes of water from any direction, like light rain or sweat. However, it shouldn't be submerged in water or exposed to heavy or long water exposure.
What kind of batteries does HALAR TAC-1 use?
18650 Li-ion rechargeable battery

TESTIMONIALS
What our customers say
"We were on a call that went from calm to volatile in seconds. The suspect was clearly under the influence and kept advancing despite repeated commands. I deployed the HALAR from about five feet away, and the optical disruption made him stop immediately. We later found a blade and crystal on him. No one got hurt — that light made the difference."
"During a nighttime traffic stop, a man unexpectedly exited his vehicle and started walking toward our squad car. Before we could even step out, my partner used the HALAR. The subject froze right away and complied. It turned out to be a misunderstanding, but HALAR gave us control instantly and prevented a possible escalation.”
“The HALAR’s optical disruption works fast. We’ve had multiple encounters where just the flash pattern changed the suspect’s behavior immediately. It’s a game changer — safer for us, safer for them.”
