Pelican 7060: World's Most Advanced Flashlight

Pelican Products went on a mission to create the most advanced and tough flashlight available. And the outcome? The Pelican 7060. Of all the Pelican flashlights on the market to date, the Pelican 7060 is certainly the most popular among professionals of all fields. The 7060 contains Pelican's patented Recoil LED Technology, providing bright LED light for many hours without the need to recharge. With several innovative features, the 7060 has revolutionized the standard everyday flashlight.

The 7060 LED flashlight is about 8 to 9 inches long and weighs slightly over 10 ounces with its batteries. Not to mention, the batteries included are re-chargeable lithium-ion batteries that produce as much power as three D cell batteries. When creating the Pelican 7060, the designers wanted to keep it compact and light. So, there's no surprise that these re-chargeable batteries weigh just 3 ounces compared to the three D cell batteries weighing 15 ounces. These compact batteries also manage to supply the powerful LED lamp creating a beam distance of about 254 meters. On one charge (which takes approximately four hours or so), the powerful LED light is able to produce 2 hours of run time.

The main highlight of this unique flashlight is its innovative dual switch function. You are able to activate light by a switch on the tail or on the body. There is also a momentary ON and constant ON/OFF switch, allowing users to activate the light by gripping on the flashlight at different angles. The Pelican 7060 is the only flashlight on the market that has made this technology work.

The founder of Pelican Lights (Pelican Products) have known about light emitting diodes (LED) and have believed that LED lamps provide the most efficient flashlights for a while. However, LED were notorious for having poor lighting that did not produce sufficient lighting for flashlight usage. To solve this problem, Pelican came up with their Recoil LED lamp, which not only provides bright lighting, but also provides the efficiency seen in light emitting diodes. These flashlights are able to produce roughly 160 lumens, making it just as bright as quality incandescent light bulbs.

Not too long ago, the world famous Los Angeles Police Department collaborated with Pelican Lights to produce their standard flashlight. Aside from an officer's handgun, the flashlight is probably an officer's most important tool. So it really says something about LAPD's trust in Pelican Lights for them to choose to collaborate with Pelican out of all the flashlight manufacturers. Aside from LAPD, there are several thousands of people who are loyal to the brand for good reason. To understand what all the hype is about, you must check out the Pelican 7060 for yourself.
