High-performance lighting manufacturer Streamlight has introduced the Sledge rechargeable headlamp, designed to meet the demands of professionals and outdoor enthusiasts alike. Compact yet rugged, the Sledge offers hands-free illumination with multiple power options and extended run times, making it a versatile tool for boat owners.

Ideal for maintenance, DIY projects, or nighttime sailboat work, the Sledge provides up to 600 lumens on High for over four hours, 300 lumens on Medium for more than nine hours, and 100 lumens on Low for over 13 hours. Its dedicated THRO® mode delivers a momentary 1,000-lumen burst for situations requiring maximum visibility.

“The Sledge is engineered to power long work shifts and deliver dependable performance, even in harsh environments,” said Michael F. Dineen, Streamlight President.

The headlamp is designed for flexibility, operating with the included SL-B26 rechargeable Li-Ion battery or with two CR123A lithium batteries. USB-C charging allows the SL-B26 battery to recharge fully in five hours, and a status indicator keeps users informed.

Built for durability, the Sledge features a polycarbonate thermoplastic body with an aluminum faceplate, an unbreakable lens, and impact resistance up to two meters. The IPX4 water-resistant design ensures reliable performance even in wet conditions. A 45-degree tilting head allows precise beam direction, while rubber hardhat and elastic straps provide comfortable, secure hands-free use.

At 1.57 inches high, 3.74 inches wide, and 1.73 inches deep, the Sledge weighs just 4.6 ounces with the battery pack and is priced at $120. Streamlight backs it with a Limited Lifetime Warranty.

For sailors, the Sledge headlamp is especially suited to work in bilges, engine compartments, stowage areas, and any situation where reliable, hands-free illumination is essential during nighttime sailboat operations or DIY projects.The Sledge headlamp is available now in black at streamlight.com.
