Despite advances in smart phone technologies, portable industrial work flashlights are still commonly employed in many equipment bags and tool boxes. Why? Because flashlights have many different purposes that can make lives and tasks easier and safer.

At first, flashlights were bulky hand-held portable light sources that used batteries and incandescent light bulbs.  Fast forward to today and you’ll find a variety of lightweight flashlights that are electric with LED lights or feature compact battery sources and available in many configurations, sizes and function.

Flashlights can vary dramatically depending upon the profession, hobby or task at hand. Mechanics, service technicians, plumbers and home inspectors, for example, may require the use of a flashlight daily, but this tool only requires a moderate lumen output and run time. Miners, search and recuse, first responders and avid hikers, on the other hand, need a hands-free lighting option with long run times and variable outputs.
