LEDE Sledge Headlamp

Streamlight has launched the Sledge headlamp, a low-profile, rechargeable flood headlamp engineered for outdoor enthusiasts who demand durability, versatility and long run times. The Sledge offers hands-free lighting and a burst of high output power whenever it’s needed most.

The Sledge combines rugged construction with field-ready performance. Powered by two LEDs, it offers 600 lumens on High with a run time of four hours and 15 minutes; 300 lumens on Medium with a run time of nine hours and 15 minutes; and 100 lumens on Low with a run time of 13 hours. Its flood beam ensures broad, consistent light for task-oriented work, while a dedicated THRO (Temporarily Heightened Regulated Output) mode delivers momentary 1,000-lumen output for on-demand, high-intensity visibility in critical moments.

“We designed the Sledge to meet the demands of hard-working professionals such as utility workers, contractors and work crews, as well as outdoor users like hikers and campers,” said Michael F. Dineen, Streamlight's president. “This headlamp is engineered to power long work shifts and deliver dependable performance, even in harsh environments."

Features:

  • Four Output Modes, including High, Medium, Low, and THRO
  • THRO Mode: 1,000 lumens for 60 seconds, activated with a 3-second press while the light is on
  • Multi-Fuel Power: Operates with the included SL-B26 rechargeable Li-Ion battery or two CR123A lithium batteries
  • USB-C Charging: SL-B26 battery recharges in 5 hours outside the light; charge status indicator included
  • Durable Design: Tough polycarbonate thermoplastic construction with aluminum faceplate, unbreakable polycarbonate lens, and 2-meter impact resistance
  • Water-Resistant: IPX4 rated for water resistant operation in wet conditions
  • Hands-Free Ready: Includes rubber hardhat and elastic head straps (ships with hardhat strap installed)
  • 45-Degree Tilting Head: Offers precise beam positioning for any task

The Sledge has an MSRP of $120 and measures 1.57 inches high, 3.74 inches wide and 1.73 inches deep. It weighs 4.6 oz with a SL-B26 battery pack. The headlamp is available in Black and is backed by Streamlight’s Limited Lifetime Warranty. For more information, visit streamlight.com.
