SomoGear IR Illuminator Pulse Rate Programming Guide

In addition to the standard Momentary and Continuous modes, the IR illuminator can be programmed to operate in Pulse Mode at 1, 2, 4, or 8 pulses per second.
To enter programming mode, the Mode Selector must be turned to the desired pulse-rate setting within 5 seconds after pressing the FIRE button.

Programming Instructions

  1. Turn the Mode Selector to the P (Program) position
  2. Press and hold the FIRE button until the orange indicator light illuminates.
  3. While continuing to hold the FIRE button, rotate the Mode Selector to the IR setting corresponding to the desired pulse rate shown in the table below.
Mode Selector Position Pulse Rate
P Program Mode
IR – AL 0 pulses per second (Continuous Beam)
IR – DL 1 pulse per second
IR – AH 2 pulses per second
IR – IH 4 pulses per second
IR – DH 8 pulses per second

Note: The safety screw must be removed before pulse-rate programming can be performed.

  1. Release the FIRE button. The orange indicator light will flash twice to confirm the setting. The selected pulse rate will remain stored until it is changed or reset.

How to Disable Pulse Mode?

To return the illuminator to a continuous beam:

  • Set the pulse rate to 0 pulses per second (IR – AL).

Laser Safety Warning?

  • Never look directly into the laser beam.
  • Never view the laser beam through binoculars, telescopes, or other optical devices.
  • Do not point the laser at reflective surfaces such as mirrors.
  • Never direct the laser beam toward another person’s eyes.
  • Keep the device out of the reach of children.
  • Always follow local laws and regulations regarding laser devices.
Illuminator Beam Calculator
For an isosceles triangle with known apex angle θ (between the two equal legs) and the leg length a (the two legs are equal), this tool computes the base (third side). Formula: b = 2a·sin(θ/2).
Valid range: 0° < θ < 180°. Use the included angle at the apex.
         
This calculator assumes an isosceles triangle, so both legs are treated as equal to a.
Beam Diameter (Meters) = —
Using b = 2a·sin(θ/2). Equivalent by cosine rule: b = √(a² + a² − 2a²·cosθ).
Geometry preview (not to scale):
Green lines are the two legs; the dark base is the computed length b.
Results show up to 6 decimal places.

  1. Eric Gill

    For the price this is hard to beat. The laser and illuminator are full power and VERY bright. No loss of zero yet. They seem to be improved over previous generations.

  2. Chris

    It is very powerful, the laser in high mode is almost too bright for most uses, great for making and signaling, on low it still reaches out 400yds no problem.
    The illuminator is also very powerful both high and low, but unfortunately the illuminator was defective and”burnt out” before actually using it in any shooting situation, but somogear support was great and after sending a video of the issue, they sent me a replacement unit in less than a week, waiting on that one and will update after I get it.
    Hoping for the best

  3. Sam

    Very solid when PCB potted only down side so far is the ir laser is visible to the naked eye due to a faint red glow from the emitters handles my 10.5 5.56 just fine

  4. Jason S

    Mounted on Tavor. Used dual switch with a real SureFire with vampire head. Functionality is excellent. The IR illum has a lot of artifacts, however, we typically run our PEQs with the IR off and use the SF IR as needed. I am impressed by the power, authentic look, price point and ability to integrate into a kit when you don’t feel like spending money on another real PEQ.
    Cons are the unknown life span and IR illum’s artifacts, narrow FOV and lack of flood filter. Overall, very good and plan on getting the NGAL next to evaluate. I recommend this unit.

  5. Ray

    Purchased the Green laser/ Black housing. This laser is F******* crazy powerful. I mean id solely buy based on how absolutely cracked it is. Ive put about 200 rounds so far through it and its held zero, I dont do too much long range stuff to see a MOA shift. Illuminator and IR laser are equally cracked. My brother has a full power L3 Peq and it no where near as powerful as this laser’/ illuminator. Just to give some insight into how powerful the Vis laser is, I could see it on target at 3’/4 of a mile away. Genuine FP Peq could not. It could probably go further but nothing else was close by. So without a doubt 10/10, for price, function and operability. Just make sure to spend the extra 10 bones to get it potted. I ordered another one last week.

    Tossed my rifle in the back of my truck and the body cracked.

      Please take photo of video and send to support@somogear.com, you will get a new replacement.

  7. Joshua

    Got the laser. Its pretty cool, looks and feels almost exactly like a real L3Harris LA-5C UHP. The only issues with this are
    1. The diffuser caps are fake and are 100% unusable. Good news is you can buy real ones at TNVC.com and just replace them.
    2. The bottom AIM exit port pin aka the bottom laser diffuser cap pin snapped on mine almost immediately upon mounting so my “diffuser cap” is just freely hanging off my unit. There is no way to fix it with out drilling out the existing hole for the pin, buying a new pin from TNVC and replacing it. SomoGear please strengthen these pins, they are very fragile. Now I cannot use any diffuser cap on my brand new “PEQ-15” unit I just recently bought from you. I had high hopes for your porducts, so far im being let down.

  8. Steven

    The illuminator is pretty decent, however after I confirmed the parallel zero at 25 and at 50 yards with the visible laser while zeroing. The laser is shifting under fire, and significantly. High and to the right. And yes, my example was potted.

  9. Brandon

    For starters, this is a great option for someone that doesn’t want to spend $1500 on a dbal d2/perst 3, or outrageous money on a mawl or used fp unit. This thing holds zero with no problems and has the feeling of good quality. However, it is not a complete slam dunk. Firstly the housing seems sturdy but not up to par as a real unit, with some thickening of the housing itself it would give the complete confidence I look for in a unit. Secondly, I would rather have the windage/elevation for the illuminator be the same as how the real one is. They are both low profile so less chance of getting smashed/broken while this unit has raised illuminator knobs. Not a deal breaker but would like to see the change for further durability. And finally, it would be nice for the caps to actually have diffusor ability for cqb environments with the illuminator. All in all this is a great device with a lot of promise, just needs a few tweaks to be an outstanding option. I will definitely be purchasing more in the future for other builds and hope to see this company expand on its units it sells like perst 3/4, mawl, dbal a3 etc.

  10. Tony Evasco

    This thing is legit. Haven’t mounted yet to co-align lasers, but did play around with it under my 14 and it is awesome! Just hoping that the alignment tracks well, but I’m sure it will because it appears to be very well built. Surprisingly fast shipping too, even with the potted service – 7 days to my doorstep. Will definitely be buying another in tan.

  11. Aaron

    Even with the adjustable illuminator, wide open is still too tight to be useable except at distance. I would make the diffuser cap functional, or adjust the lenses to 20deg.

  12. Alexander Hart

    When you recieve this YOU HAVE TO OPEN IT AND SOLDER ONE OF THE POWER WIRES TO WHERE IT MSKES CONTACT WITH THE BATTERY HOUSING. They just lay the wire down in the case which is why everyone reports the light flickering off when you run or bang. That is because the wire slightly moves and looses contact with the battery housing. From the inside you can also place something on the tilting arm that angles the laser diodes where you want them. This way you can increase the range of laser coverage and actually align with your sights or barrel. Other than those two things, and after you do what I say, you will basically have a legit PEQ15.

  13. Alexander Hart

    When recieved, my vis laser will not move far enough to the right to align with my barrel. Also while adjusting it, thr screw used for adjustment is now pushed into the peq15 case and although you can still turn with a flathead screwdriver, the vis laser does not move now.

    Also, there are light blue screws blocking my option for HIGH POWER (AH) on the selector switch. So I don’t have high power options apparently either. And then when you want to contact somogear on the contact us portion of the website, they require your “whatsapp #”. I don’t have a whatsapp number and have never had one.

    • somogear

      Hello Alexander

      1, The blue screw is safety screws, take off it, then the high power available, usually it is locked as L3 prototyle, ensure eye-safe during training.(Have Allen key in the box, unlock high power mode)
      2, We accept return, and we already send you the return information to your mail box, for quality issue, we will pay you the return freight.
      3, For Whatsapp issue, if don’t have it, just leave a telephone nubmer are fine, enablue contact you.

    Amazing Performance this thing is amazing. Can’t go wrong with SoMo Gear good communications with staff quick international shipping and a great product this is almost the real deal.

  15. Jake

    I ordered 2 they are holding zero and everything lines up perfect. I can’t say enuf good things about them. The very best I’ve seen. If you can widen the illuminator beam you’ll have a real winner. Thank you somogear. I can punch out 300 yards easy all fire has been accurate. Also customer service was great and answered all my questions. Took about 2 weeks to make it to my door in the USA.

  16. piotr

    the best replica ever…I even dont know if is correct to call it a replica…works great, very happy about, I have the peq 15 and the ngal full power…the only thing is that the illuninator diameter is a bit too small at the largest size, and in the ngal you can regulate it in diameter, all the rest is great.

  17. J

    The quality of this product is great. Technical support is also amazing. Top notch for airsoft. You can even use it in real steel systems. I tested two of these units with 300 Blk, 223, and 308. They held zero with 300 Blk and 223 without issues. Unfortunately, not able to hold zero with with 308. Definitely a great product.

  18. Ahmed

    I got this unit, and having had some replicas before to compare to such as G&P DBAL and some other PEQ15 clones, this one is by far the best one. The low laser power setting is as strong as the high laser power setting on most clones.

    My only gripe with this unit is that the IR illuminatior is not adjustable in windage/elevation meaning you can never center it over where your IR/Vis laser are aimed, it will always be offset to to the left. Not sure why this was not added, as it would make this unit perfect. My DBAL allowed adjustment of the illuinator.

    If this had full adjustment I would rate it 5 out of 5, but with this missing feature I would rate it 4 out of 5.

    good afternoon everyone !!! if you are still hesitant to take or not to take this work of art … then I will tell you – take it for sure !!! I have never met a better, working replica than this one !!! other manufacturers and did not come close to the copy of this device. 223 cal. holds, on a lath becomes normal – without problems. it is programmed simply, in the NIGHT VISION DEVICE it is visible normally !!! I advise everyone: take it, you will not regret it !!!

  20. Don

    pre ordered one of these units, and I am very pleased with it. I own a real full power peq15 that I have mounted on one of my real rifles for night vision use. I bought this unit to mount on another rifle as its much much cheaper than another full power peq15 (like 2k lol). under night vision the IR laser on this unit is like 95% as bright as my real PEQ. the illuminator is about 70% as bright, but still quite powerful. the settings are great, the adjustments work perfectly, and it was easy to program. so far I am quite impressed with my somogear PEQ! will update later if the laser breaks under the recoil or the rifle or any other issues arise!
