September 26, 2005—Underwater Kinetics, also known as UK, has released its new ZOOM 4AA eLED Light, the first high-tech eLED light featuring UK’s patent pending Projection Optical System. The new ZOOM 4AA eLED has a life 100 times greater than conventional xenon and is brighter than a cluster of seven LEDs, the company says.
Using a high-intensity LED, the ZOOM 4AA eLED Light projects a long-lasting, even, super-bright beam at half the size and weight of bulky 3C LED lights, claims UK The company adds that it is ideal for most all-weather industrial, utility, HVAC, fire and emergency, and security applications.
The technological breakthrough behind the ZOOM 4AA eLED Light is UK’s patent pending Projection Optical System, which uses a dual lens bezel instead of reflectors, and employs the latest advances to produce an incredibly smooth bean of light that closely mimics daylight. Projection Optics, claims UK, is a revolutionary technology that heralds a new era in flashlight design.
The new ZOOM 4AA eLED allows users to adjust the diameter of the variable beam (from flood to focused), a battery-saving mode (providing more than double battery life), and constant output over the life of batteries. It uses 4AA alkaline cells, provides 35 lumens of power, and has a Class I / Division 2 hazardous location rating by CSA and UL, explains UK, which designs and manufactures flashlights, waterproof cases, and other accessories.
