Nightstick headlamp launch details
Nightstick has announced the XPR-5552G, a USB-C rechargeable headlamp certified ATEX Zone 0 and Class I Division 1 Intrinsically Safe for hazardous work environments.
The company said the launch builds on the low-profile USB-4510 headlamp and adds global safety certifications in the same compact format.
The XPR-5552G includes tri-colour floodlight output with white, red and green modes.
Its right-hand switch controls high and low white settings and can also be held for a flashing white signal.
The left-hand switch changes between red and green output.
Nightstick said the red setting is intended to preserve night vision during low-light tasks and the green setting is intended to improve contrast and detail.
Nightstick specifications and mounting options
Nightstick stated that the headlamp runs at 200 lumens for up to eight hours on high and at 60 lumens for 40 hours on low.
The unit is made from PC/ABS polymer and carries an IP-67 rating for waterproof and dustproof protection.
It also includes a Battery Safe Mode designed to prevent accidental activation during storage or travel.
A translucent switch cover shows a red-to-green charge indicator.
Users can charge the built-in lithium-ion battery with the supplied USB-C cable or another standard USB-C connection.
The headlamp also includes a 3M dual-lock adhesive pad for mounting to most flat-surface hard hats, including HDPE helmets or other gear without a band.
