Compatibility
The Streamlight 880096 tailcap assembly is designed exclusively for two specific flashlight models: the Streamlight ProTac 1L and the Streamlight ProTac 2L. Both of these models run on CR123A lithium batteries and share the same body diameter and thread specification.
This part will NOT fit the following models:
- Streamlight ProTac 2L-X
- Streamlight ProTac 1L-1AA
The ProTac 2L-X and ProTac 1L-1AA have different body diameters and thread patterns. Ordering this part for those models will result in a tailcap that cannot thread onto the flashlight body. Verify your flashlight's model number, which is printed on the body, before purchasing.
Intended Users
The Streamlight 880096 tailcap assembly is the right part for anyone who depends on a ProTac 1L or ProTac 2L as part of their daily kit.
Law enforcement officers and military personnel who carry the ProTac 1L or 2L as a duty or backup light benefit from having a genuine replacement tailcap on hand. A stripped or failed tailcap renders the light inoperable during a critical moment, and this OEM part restores function in under a minute.
First responders, including paramedics, EMTs, and firefighters, often carry compact CR123A-powered flashlights during their shifts. Maintaining a spare 880096 tailcap assembly extends the service life of an otherwise reliable light.
Outdoor professionals, survivalists, and preppers who rely on the ProTac 1L or 2L for emergency preparedness appreciate having this part in their kit to avoid being without light when it matters most.
Forensic investigators, security personnel, and range users who carry the ProTac line for hands-on field tasks also benefit from keeping genuine replacement components readily available.
