LED VERSION, IMPROVEMENTS TO 2AA PROPOLYMER FLASHLIGHT

Streamlight, Inc., a leading flashlight manufacturer for the industrial market, has introduced a new 2AA LED flashlight and an improved 2AA Xenon bulb model. Both lights are members of the ProPolymerR family of lights. According to Streamlight Chief Operating Officer Ray Sharrah, the new and improved lights offer both longevity and power. "LEDs are becoming increasingly popular with industrial professionals because of their long life span, extreme durability and their usefulness for close up work, such as reading a serial number or repairing equipment under low light conditions," said Sharrah. For professionals who favor incandescent flashlights, the 2AA ProPolymerR which features a super-bright Xenon bi-pin bulb has been improved with convenient, single-handed operation, he added. " While previously users were required to press the tailcap for momentary illumination or to rotate the facecap bezel for continuous "on" power, the enhanced 2AA ProPolymer enables them to easily switch between the two modes simply by pressing the tailcap, giving them a free hand to make repairs and inspections," said Sharrah. The 2AA ProPolymer LED model features a .5 Watt, 30,000-hour lifetime High Flux LED that provides an output of 25 lumens typical and works with Streamlight's proprietary deep-dish parabolic reflector to provide a focused beam, while also optimizing peripheral lighting. Offering a continuous runtime of 18 hours, the light uses two included 1.5 volt "AA" alkaline cells. The LED model features the same convenient pushbutton tailswitch as the incandescent model. The 2AA ProPolymer Xenon offers a continuous runtime of up to four hours at 4,500 Peak beam candlepower (9 lumens typical) and uses two included "AA" alkaline batteries. Both flashlights measure 6.28 inches, weigh 3.6 ounces, and are constructed of virtually indestructible, non-conductive polymer with a non-slip grip that is co-molded in the casing. Each light features a rubber face cap for impact and shock resistance, an unbreakable polycarbonate lens with scratch resistant coating and is O-ringed sealed for maximum weather resistance. Available in yellow, the 2AA ProPolymer Xenon retails for $20.95, and the 2AA ProPolymer LED, available in yellow or black, retails for $29.95. Each model includes a convenient wrist lanyard and pocket clip and comes with Streamlight's Limited Lifetime Warranty.
