Streamlight presents the Stinger 2020 S flashlight

Streamlight has introduced the Stinger 2020 S work light, which emits a beam of up to 2,000 lumens. It features a mode selector switch, battery status indicator, textured housing, and a Li-Ion battery.

The new variant of the Stinger

Images: Streamlight

While the original Stinger 2020 revolutionised the idea of a super-bright, rechargeable work light, this newest model features the added benefit of being compatible with a PiggyBack charger, which ensures users will never be without a spare battery when using the light for a full work shift

 Michael F. Dineen, Streamlight Chief Revenue Officer

Like the original Stinger 2020, its easy-to-use mode selector switch eliminates the need to cycle between modes with each use, and 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.”

Source of power

The new flashlight is powered by a single protected lithium-ion battery with a capacity of 5200 mAh. It can be charged using existing Stinger chargers or through a PiggyBack charger, which simultaneously charges an additional battery, doubling the runtime. A bank charger that supports 5 flashlights simultaneously is also available.

Operating modes

The Stinger 2020 S features a high-power LED, a head-mounted switch for momentary or constant operation, and an intensity mode selector switch with high, medium, or low intensity modes. In high intensity mode, the Stinger 2020 S achieves 2000 lumens, 25,000 candela, a beam range of 315 meters, and a runtime of 2 hours. In low intensity mode, the runtime is up to 24 hours with 100 lumens, 1200 candela, and a beam range of 70 meters. The strobe mode runs for 3.25 hours.

Materials and durability

he Stinger 2020 S features an aluminum housing and a BOROFLOAT glass lens that is impact-resistant and gasket-sealed. The flashlight measures 19.53 cm in length and weighs 346 g.

The model meets IPX7 protection standards, making it waterproof to a depth of one meter for 30 minutes. It is also tested for impact resistance from a height of up to 2 meters. Offered in black, the Stinger 2020 S is available in Standard, PiggyBack, and Light Only variants. Each model comes with Streamlight’s Limited Lifetime Warranty.
