Product Information
Full details
The STANLEY Lighting Magnetic Head Torch is designed for tradespeople, DIY enthusiasts, and anyone needing hands-free illumination in dark or confined spaces. Its key benefit is the magnetic base for versatile mounting, allowing for static use when not worn. A minor caveat is its IP20 rating, making it suitable for dry conditions but not for exposure to heavy moisture. This durable, lightweight aluminum torch offers two brightness settings and an adjustable headband for comfort, providing up to 300 lumens of light with a beam distance of 25 meters.
