Streamlight® Continues to Revolutionise the Market in Hands Free Lighting Solutions with the New SL-SideSaddle®
Meet the SL-SideSaddle® and SL-SideSaddle® USB
The SL-SideSaddle and SL-SideSaddle USB are a major leap forward in terms of design and performance in the hands-free lighting category. Both models are built around a lightweight, compact form that attaches securely to a baseball hat or bump cap, hard hats and safety helmets, without interfering with visors, ear protection or other essential accessories.
A key feature of both SL-SideSaddle models is their triple beam functionality. Each feature ultra bright front facing LEDs offering spot, flood and spot/flood combination beam options, allowing users to adapt the light output to their task. Additionally, a bright blue rear safety taillight increases visibility from behind, with programmable modes for enhanced safety signalling.
The SL-SideSaddle is powered by three AAA alkaline batteries and features a push button tail switch with mode memory, which remembers your last beam setting. It is waterproof to one metre (IPX7), tested for two metre impact resistance and easily detaches for handheld use and quick battery changes. The runtime ranges from 5 to 16 hours depending on the mode, with a maximum output of 300 lumens in combination mode.
The SL-SideSaddle USB offers all of the same mounting versatility and lighting functionality but adds the benefit of USB-C rechargeable power. It runs on a 2000 mAh lithium polymer battery that recharges in approximately four hours. Despite being slightly lighter at just 88 grams, it delivers even greater performance, with up to 400 lumens in combination mode and runtimes of up to 12 hours on low settings. The light can be quickly detached for handheld use while the strap remains fixed, making it extremely efficient in field conditions.
Available in yellow or black, both lighting systems include the required mounting accessories to securely attach the SL-SideSaddle. When using the hat light mounting system the SL-SideSaddle fits baseball hats and bump caps, while hard hats and helmets utilise the hard hat lighting system, allowing the user to configure the setup to suit their gear and environment.
