Nightstick Launches IS-Certified 1750 Lumen Rechargeable Lantern
Nightstick, a global manufacturer of innovative, professional lighting products raises the bar to new heights of performance and flexibility with their newest NFPA-certified Intrinsically Safe INTEGRITAS handheld fire safety lantern.
The INTEGRITAS™ XPR-5582RX Intrinsically Safe Rechargeable Lantern is Nightstick’s most powerful handheld light. It generates an ultra-bright 1750 lumens from four separate LEDs housed in a 180-degree articulating head. The results are a tightly collimated beam that cuts through thick smoke and illuminates objects up to a third of a mile (552m) away! Holding down the wide, ergonomic top-mounted switch enables a battery-saving 600-lumen low mode, extending runtime to 11.5 hours when firefighters need a dependable light on longer calls. Designed and engineered as both a hand-held lantern and portable area light, the 5582 features a rear-mounted rubber base pad for upright use on any flat surface for portable, adjustable scene lighting on demand.
Constructed of thick-walled glass-filled nylon and weighing only 2 lbs. 11oz., the 5582 is built to take abuse without dishing it out. The wide, flat body and handle design provide firefighters a stable platform while crawling under smoke or following a hose line. Two bright green rear-facing LEDs provide passive team member location for increased safety and awareness.
“Firefighters need a hand-held light that’s powerful enough to cut through dark, smoke-filled scenes when visibility is almost zero, and robust enough to handle repeated abuse during fire ground tactics while exposed to severe heat,“ says Russell Hoppe, Marketing Director for Nightstick. “Our heroes shouldn’t have to worry about bringing enough light, taking off their gloves to press a button or running back to the truck for a separate area light. They need to focus on completing their job with confidence, knowing their equipment was designed to perform when life depends on light. We’re honored to provide these men and women a tool that plays a critical role in protecting and saving lives, including their own.”
The 5582 is a cETLus-certified Class I DIV 2 and meets the requirements of NFPA-1971-8.6 (2013). Its powered by a rechargeable Lithium-ion battery and comes with a charger base, AC and DC chargers and carry strap.
