Split design works as two independent handheld lights or joins via magnetic buckles into a single 2400-lumen unit. Infrared gesture control and three brightness modes allow touch-free operation.
Targeted or wide-area illumination – with a modular dual-light system
Split construction allows two independent handheld lamps or a single combined unit via top magnetic buckles, delivering a combined 2400 lumens. LED arrays produce even beam coverage when units are joined, or focused spotlighting when separated.
Precise spotlighting helps when working on small engine parts, while the combined mode lights up a whole engine bay or workbench for broader tasks.
Hands-free operation – with an infrared sensor and adaptive lighting
Infrared sensor detects hand gestures for on/off control, with a long-press enabling continuous sensor mode. Three brightness levels plus a strobe setting are selectable for different scenarios.
Gesture control suits grease-covered hands and cramped positions, allowing quick lighting changes without touching controls.
Secure mounting and flexible aiming – with dual magnets, concealed hooks and 350° rotation
Dual powerful magnets at each end attach securely to metal surfaces, concealed hooks enable hanging in non-metal locations, and a 350° rotatable body directs the beam precisely.
Strong magnetic hold and hanging options keep the light firmly positioned under a bonnet or over a workbench, leaving both hands free for repairs.
