EAGLEVILLE, PA, June 21, 2022 - Streamlight® Inc., a leading manufacturer of high-performance flashlights for fire/rescue and industrial professionals, introduced the Survivor® X, an updated version of its popular Survivor right-angle light, now offering 250 lumens, new features for improved operation, and multiple power options to suit user needs and budgets. The low-profile light is available as a Rechargeable System or in an economical Alkaline Model, both for use in Division 1 hazardous environments. Also available is the Survivor X® USB, a budget-friendly USB rechargeable option for use in Division 2 conditions.
“The Survivor personal light, known the world over for its toughness, compact size and reliability, just got even better with the new Survivor X, which not only offers enhanced brightness and added features, but also multiple power options, including the Survivor X Alkaline model which provides a 25 percent cost savings on batteries, as well as the Survivor X USB which offers an economical USB rechargeable alternative and also accepts alkaline batteries,” said Streamlight Chief Revenue Officer Michael F. Dineen. “Fire and rescue personnel, industrial firefighters, utility workers and others now have an even more powerful and versatile tool to use when operating in the trying conditions they often face.”
Also available as a Rechargeable System or Alkaline Model is the Survivor X ATEX, pending approval, for Zone 0 gas and Zone 20 dust atmospheres.
The new light features several improvements in response to user feedback, including:
- An easy-to-operate battery door that provides a tight, dust-resistant seal
- A battery status indicator in the switch that turns red when the battery is nearing low voltage, flashes continuously when there are 15 minutes of battery life left and turns green when the battery is fully charged
- An improved charge cradle design that locks the light securely in place, while also featuring a quick-release latch to permit one-handed “grab and go” removal, even with gloved hands. In addition to energizing the new Survivor X, the new charger also charges all existing Survivor models.
The Survivor X features the latest in power technology for extreme brightness and offers microprocessor-controlled high and low intensity and emergency flash modes. The Rechargeable System operates on a 2.6Ahr Lithium-Ion battery pack, which can be recharged up to 1,000 times, while the Survivor X Alkaline Model uses three AA alkaline batteries. The Survivor X USB is powered by an included Streamlight SL-B26® Lithium-Ion battery pack with micro-USB port, and also accepts three AA alkaline batteries. Both the Survivor X Alkaline and the Survivor X USB utilize the same battery carrier.
On high, all models deliver 250 lumens and 50,000 candela over a beam distance of 447 meters. The light’s custom optic produces a narrow beam, ideal for cutting through smoke, fog and mist, while also providing optimum peripheral illumination to aid in navigation. Operating run times for all three models range from 3.75 hours on high to 15 hours on low, with 8 hours on the flash setting, based on battery type.
Rechargeable System models are available with AC and DC chargers. An indicator in the charger turns red when charging and green when the light is fully charged. A bank charger accessory that charges five units simultaneously is available. An eight-unit SL-B26 Li-Ion USB battery bank charger that charges eight USB batteries simultaneously is available as an accessory for the Survivor X USB model.
The Survivor X features a low-profile, compact bezel that prevents snagging when putting on gear or equipment. The light’s reinforced, built-in attachment D-ring and updated spring-loaded clip offer superior retention, ensuring the light consistently hangs forward, and conveniently latches to belts and harnesses. Its rubber dome push-button switch is easy to use, even with gloves, and its super-tough nylon housing provides exceptional durability.
All openings are O-ring sealed to resist moisture, including the light’s unbreakable polycarbonate lens with silicone anti-scratch coating, assembled in a heavy-duty bezel. The light has an IP67-rated design for dust-tight use and waterproof operation to 1 meter for 30 minutes. The light is also impact resistance-tested to 2 meters.
The Survivor X has an MSRP that ranges from $125.00 to $275.00, depending on the model. It is available in orange or yellow.
