Application
The high-performance Wedge XT shines a powerful light into spaces an overhead light cannot reach. Auto professionals can simply reach into their pocket for quick access to bright light for inspecting under a chassis, hood, or dashboard. It’s handy for times when searching for a dropped screw or part on the floor, or for pinpointing trouble deep within an engine.
Origin
Modeled after the popular Wedge EDC light from Streamlight, the more compact, ergonomic design of the Wedge XT provides comfortable deep pocket carry for automotive technicians. The Wedge XT replaces the rotary side switch with a tactical push-button tail switch for even easier one-handed operation in an automotive setting. Overall, providing the form, fit, and function requested by customers.
