Application
The MegaStream USB is a must-have tool for automotive technicians, providing powerful, hands-free lighting for detailed inspections, diagnostics, and repairs in low-light conditions, such as:
- Under-the-hood inspections: Its ultra-bright beam reaches deep into engine compartments, making it easy to spot leaks, worn belts, or loose connections.
- Undercarriage work: The powerful 1,800 lm output ensures clear visibility when working under vehicles, helping technicians locate and fix issues faster.
- Dash & interior repairs: The compact design fits easily in tight spaces, illuminating dashboards, consoles, and footwells.
- Electrical troubleshooting: The bright, focused beam allows for precise identification of wires, fuses, and connections, reducing errors and rework.
Selling points
- High-performance brightness: 1,800 lm and 26,000 candela provide an ultra-bright, long-range beam.
- Compact and lightweight: Small enough for everyday carry but powerful enough for professional use.
- USB-C rechargeable: Convenient charging with a 3,500mAh SL-B34 lithium-ion battery pack that can be charged inside or outside the light.
- Durable and weatherproof: IPX7 waterproof rating and 2m impact resistance tested make it ideal for tough environments.
Features and benefits
- Three output modes: Choose between high (1,800 lm) for maximum visibility, medium (500 lm) for balanced brightness, and low (150 lm) for extended run-time, making it ideal for everything from quick, under-the-hood inspections to complex repair jobs. The adjustable brightness levels allow technicians to control the intensity of the beam based on the task.
- Long-lasting performance: Up to 13 hours of run-time on low and 2 hours on high ensures technicians have reliable lighting throughout a full shift.
- Sliding head cover: Keeps the USB-C charging port protected from grease, dirt, and debris, ensuring a reliable connection and long-term durability in shop environments.
- Hands-free operation: The removable pocket clip allows technicians to attach the light to a uniform, belt, or tool cart, keeping both hands free for precision work under the hood or in tight spaces.
- Rugged construction: Built with machined aluminum alloy, a Type II MIL-Spec anodized finish and an unbreakable polycarbonate lens, this light is designed to withstand drops, impacts, and the tough conditions of an automotive repair shop.
