The flashlight also features Pelican's Recoil LED technology that produces a focused rectangular white beam bright as an incandescent light to cut through thick smoke, fog, and dust. Recoil technology improves on convention LED flashlights, which have relatively weak unfocused beams, by aiming a one-watt LED backward into the reflector so that 100 percent of light is reflected forward. Pelican says a Recoil LED light is 10 times brighter at 30 feet than multi-array LED lights and provides 50 percent longer battery life.

The flashlight has a slide thumb-switch that's easy to use, even when thick gloves are worn, making it popular with firefighters and adventurers. It's submersible to 500 feet thanks to an o-ring seal and twist on/off lens shroud that eliminates leaky switches. A one-way "umbrella" valve allows gases to vent from the body to prevent excessive pressure buildup while blocking water entry when the flashlight is submerged. The flashlight is powered by four AA alkaline batteries (included) and weighs 7.3 ounces with batteries. Battery burn time is 32 hours. Faceted for secure gripping, the rugged resin body is corrosion proof and resistant to extreme temperatures. A lanyard on the end secures the flashlight to wrist.

About Pelican Products
Dave Parker, president of Pelican Products, has been an avid scuba diver since age 11. During his early diving years, he repeatedly discovered that something he needed to make a dive complete was simply not available. It dawned on him that if he needed that piece of gear other divers did, too. In 1976, he began the company with his wife and co-founder Arline, an airline stewardess, while he continued his advertising and industrial-design business. From that inception as a small garage operation, Pelican has blossomed into an international marketing and manufacturing firm.
