aac Posted January 5, 2015 Report Share Posted January 5, 2015 The Rheinmetal Defense ELLM 01 is an alternative for the Insigth PEQ-box, a so called LAM (Laser Aiming Module) He is in use by the German,British, and , the Netherlands fighting forces. Personaly i find he's nice under a G36, but under a sidearm its a pretty bulky piece of gear ! I tried to fit him under my Mk23, but that isn't possible , due to an other style of rail.! The ELLM is equiped with a flashlight, IR, and visible laser, witch could be selected by an selector switch aside. There are 3 presure switches, at the back of the ELLM (the black squares) this are the on/ off switches. they could be reached from different angles/positions. There is also a connection for a remote pressure pad. ELEMENT is de only manufacturer making this replica, (as far as i know ?) And this is a real nice made replica, one of the best items i have already seen from ELEMENT ! The housing is Full Metal ! and their even markings casted in ! The finish is very good ! cant say anyting bad about it ! This replica as all the functions of the real counterpart !! The Flashlight is very bright, the visible laser red and Adjustable ! The IR functions seems to be working, but i am not able to verify this , because i have no NVG The ELLM 01 comes in a blister packaging, with a remote pad, velcro strip for the remote, stickerset, rubber cover for the remote socket And a nice&clear Manual at the inside of the blister. This photo's under my M1911 only for comparison ! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ollie_ty Posted January 25, 2015 Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 VFC also make one, but it's much dimmer because it only uses a single battery. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Skarclaw Posted January 28, 2015 Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 Okay, thx, i heard already about , but couldn't find him ? Element is considered the better option. A few things to add; I think Ollie_TY raised the issue of it draining batteries even when left on. I can't confirm this BUT when I received it the batteries included were flat. Either 1) the batteries were flat anyway or 2) it drained them. I take them out when not using it in anycase. I'm minded to think that people buy this as an LLM replica first and a LAM later... that being said I'm very impressed with the torch output. Likewise the visible laser goes further then airsoft ranges Have yet to test the IR functions but I may do that this weekend. I'll try and get pics but I'd imagine they'd be a bit ! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Azubi Posted January 29, 2015 Report Share Posted January 29, 2015 The IR option is indeed naff. This is not a robust unit in any sense. The torch part came away pretty easy, and eventually was U/S. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Skarclaw Posted December 28, 2015 Report Share Posted December 28, 2015 FWIW - yes the ir function is naff. I tested it indoors (with gen1) - the laser was nonexistent and the lamp projected a pale light about 15cm wide against a wall 7m away. Not tried it outside as I deemed it pointless! Visible light and laser are fine though - is it even possible to 'zero' the latter? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
