Bespoke optics coupled with the highest performance ‘fitted for life’ LED light sources deliver an outstanding light output from the high intensity spot beam (Standard model), switchable to a wide-angle flood (Performance model) and additional coloured signal LEDs (Performance+ model). It has easy single-handed switching, even with gloved hands, allowing straightforward function selection.
Battery duration varies by model, from 4 hours of high output light (XT-50) to 11 hours (XT-90); selecting powersave doubles this duration. State of battery charge is indicated with a bar of high intensity red LEDs, which go out as battery charge diminishes and the beam flashes off repeatedly when recharging is required. Use of the latest lithium-ion battery technology improves reliability and eliminates ‘memory’ affect and the ‘quick’ charger base fully recharges the Handlamp in a minimum of 2 hours, dependent on model, and is configured as a holder with ‘snap-in/snatch-out’ function, for quick release but secure retention. Emergency illumination function illuminates Handlamp if power to the charger is cut.
The compact and lightweight high strength body has proven impact resistance even at sub zero temperatures; enhanced by rubber armoured lens ring, and handle/sides give improved grip and shock protection. The lens is resistant to scratches and chemical attack; the enclosure is electrostatic nonhazardous and sealed dust tight and protected from water immersion to IP67.
