Streamlight 88838 Led Flashlight 500 Lumens Rechargeable

Product Description

The STREAMLIGHT 88838 is a compact, handheld LED flashlight built for trade and field professionals who need reliable illumination in demanding environments. It delivers up to 500 lumens on High and 85 lumens on Low, giving users two distinct output modes to match the task. The body is constructed from nylon and measures 4.43 inches in length, 1.11 inches in width, and 1.3 inches in height, keeping the unit lightweight at 0.3 pounds. All openings are O-ring sealed for moisture resistance, and the integrated carabiner-style D-ring supports a variety of carry and attachment methods. Licensed electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general trades personnel are the primary installers and users.

The 88838 is suited for residential and light commercial service work where a compact, high-output torch is needed in confined spaces such as attics, crawlspaces, electrical panels, and mechanical rooms. The multi-fuel design accepts the included SL-B26 lithium-ion USB rechargeable battery pack or standard CR123A batteries, making it field-adaptable when recharging is not immediately available. Maximum run time reaches 19 hours depending on output mode and battery type. The fully rotatable and reversible clip allows hands-free positioning in multiple orientations.
