Product Information

The SL F is a both-sided mount light with a maximum brightness of 250m and a light intensity of 12500 cd. It has a light output of1300 lumens and a light pattern of TA 23. The light is waterproof up to 2m and complies with IP protection class 68. However, it is not suitable for use as a diving lamp or underwater.

Safety Instructions

  • Avoid looking directly into the light emitted by the light or shining the light into your own eyes or the eyes of another person.
  • If the light accidentally shines into your eyes, close your eyes and move your head out of the light beam.
  • Do not use any strongly focusing optical device to look at the light beam.
  • In cases where the light is used in a public or commercial setting, users should be provided with training concerning the safety measures for laser light.
  • This device may be used by children 8 years of age or older, persons with limited physical, sensory or mental capabilities, as well as persons with no previous experience in handling such devices, if they are supervised by a person responsible for their safety.
  • Carry a spare light with you at all times, as the product can potentially fail unexpectedly at any time.
  • Defects: Light source must be replaced in general if the light source (or one of the LEDs) is defective.
  • Heat generation: The housing of SL may heat up; so make sure that you always keep the light at a safe distance to any combustible or flammable materials. However, quiescent operation (without cooling the light housing via airflow or the like) is possible at any time and will not damage the product.
  • Water resistance: All SL components are waterproof and can of course be used under extremely severe conditions. The lamp complies with IP protection class 68 but is NOT a diving lamp and is NOT suitable for use under water.
