Available in both USB rechargeable and alkaline battery-powered models, the SL-SideSaddle is designed for use in demanding environments, providing reliable, hands-free lighting to keep industrial professionals working safely and efficiently.
Whether illuminating tight workspaces or enhancing user visibility on job sites, the SL-SideSaddle delivers targeted beam control through selectable spot, flood, or spot/flood combination modes and a rear-facing blue LED taillight. The lightweight, impact-resistant lights integrate without interfering with other headgear accessories, such as visors or hearing protection, and are easily detachable for handheld use.
“Industrial and safety professionals need adaptable tools that work as hard as they do,” said Michael F. Dineen, Streamlight president. “The SL-SideSaddle series is setting a new standard in hands-free lighting, delivering rugged, reliable performance in a lightweight design. Built for the toughest jobs, the SL-SideSaddle does not interfere with visors, face shields, or other essential accessories while on the job.”
The SL-SideSaddle USB delivers up to 400 lumens with a run time of 5 hours on high combo. On low spot, the light offers 12 hours of runtime and up to 100 lumens.
The alkaline version provides up to 300 lumens with a run time of up to 5 hours. The low flood setting provides 16 hours of run time at 60 lumens. A push-button tail switch with mode memory recalls the last beam setting when the light is activated.
The USB model features USB-C rechargeability, using a 2000 mAh lithium polymer cell that charges in four hours. The SL-SideSaddle (alkaline) runs on three AAA alkaline batteries. Both models are IPX7-rated, waterproof to 1 meter for 30 minutes.
The SL-SideSaddle series is available in high-visibility yellow or black. The lights feature a tough polycarbonate thermoplastic construction and an unbreakable polycarbonate lens that is impervious to shock and drop tested to withstand 2-meter impact.
Each system, the universal mounting system for helmets and hard hats, or the hat light system for mounting on a baseball hat or bump cap, includes mounting hardware to securely attach the SL-SideSaddle.
The USB version of the light is 3 inches long and 1.72 inches wide, with a height of 1.14 inches and a weight of 3.1 ounces. The alkaline version of the light measures 3 inches long by 2.25 inches wide and 1.14 inches tall, and weighs 3.4 ounces with batteries installed.
