In the world of serious flashlights, charging has always been a bit of a challenge. We use our lights for serious business and must know we won’t see them run out of juice at the worst possible time. A company that understands this is Streamlight. For over 50 years, Streamlight has designed, manufactured, and marketed high-quality, durable flashlights designed to serve the specialized needs of professionals and consumers alike. Today they are offering a solution to our charging challenge with the new Streamlight Stinger 2020 S – Rechargeable Stinger.

Streamlight Stinger 2020 S – Rechargeable Stinger

The rechargeable Stinger 2020 S is a powerful work light featuring 2,000 lumens. It has a body-mounted switch with an intensity mode selector and battery status indicator. It also has a textured body for an enhanced grip. The new Stinger model, which is powered by a rechargeable Li-Ion battery, also features PiggyBack charging options. This allows users to energize both the light and a backup battery at the same time.

“While the original Stinger 2020 revolutionized the idea of a super-bright, rechargeable work light, this newest model features the added benefit of being compatible with a PiggyBack charger. This ensures users will never be without a spare battery when using the light for a full work shift,” said Streamlight Chief Revenue Officer, Michael F. Dineen. “Like the original Stinger 2020, its easy-to-use mode selector switch eliminates the need to cycle between modes with each use. Its ergonomic flat design lets you hold the light without losing your grip. It’s an ideal work light for automotive and industrial technicians, first responders, and outdoor users alike.”

It can be charged inside the light with existing Stinger chargers or via a PiggyBack charger that simultaneously charges an extra battery, doubling the run time. A 5-unit bank charger is also available.
