Are You Ready for Flashlight Season?

Leslie MolinMarket Segment Manager - Personal SafetyOctober 10, 2023

It’s that time of year again when, at the end of the day, you ask yourself, “Where did the day go?” You’re not being rhetorical; reflecting on another busy day, you’re really wondering, “Where did the DAYLIGHT go?”

In October, Canada loses between three and six minutes of daylight a day, every day! Soon, we all will be leaving and coming home from work in the dark. Then, to add insult to injury, on November 5th, daylight savings time ends, and it gets dark even earlier. A good flashlight is the most critical tool for workers navigating the dark days of winter. There are unique solutions on the market to help brighten those dark days and keep workers safe and productive. Below, we highlight a few intrinsically safe options so you can light up your path or complete your task with confidence. 

Light Your Path with Streamlight 3AA Dualie: 

The Streamlight 3AA Dualie has the traditional forward-facing flashlight beam we are all accustomed to and has a downward-facing flood beam that illuminates your path. This helps to identify any potential slip, trip, and fall hazards at your feet. This light is terrific for walking in rail yards, right-of-way’s, mining sites, or any outdoor path.

Hands-Free Illumination with Streamlight Enduro Pro HAZ-LO Headlamp:

Many workers need to be hands-free, and for them, a headlamp is the perfect tool for working on equipment, reading indicators while taking notes, or simply walking with your hands full. The Streamlight Enduro Pro HAZ-LO headlamp has these simple tasks covered and includes attachments for integrating the light onto a hard hat easily and securely.

Versatile Cordless Lighting with Streamlight BEARTRAP 360°:

If a headlamp isn’t for you, a versatile cordless work light like the Streamlight BearTrap® 360 is the perfect tool for illuminating a task— hands-free. With 2,000 lumens on high mode, it provides broad illumination for tough jobs, while the rotating body and multi-position handle allow precise directional lighting and easy handheld use. It’s IPX4-rated for water resistance and built for durability, making it perfect for industrial environments.

Whatever your professional lighting needs, from general-purpose to uniquely specialized, Streamlight and Levitt-Safety have high-performance and durability solutions for you. Illuminate your path with confidence, enhance safety, and boost productivity during the dark season ahead. Prepare for the flashlight season, and let the light guide your way to a brighter and safer winter.
