“Whether on the fireground, emergency scenes or complex worksites, reliable lighting is critical for safety, visibility, and operational efficiency,” said Michael F. Dineen, Streamlight president. “The Portable Scene Light III delivers high-lumen output, rapid deployment, and flexible power options to support crews in dynamic, low-light environments.”

121,000 Candela for Scene Illumination

On high, Streamlight’s PSL III provides 10,000 lumens and 121,000 candela for maximum scene illumination with a 2-hour run time.

Medium offers 5,000 lumens and 61,000 candela for balanced output and extended 4-hour operation, while low delivers 2,500 lumens and 38,000 candela with up to eight hours of run time for longer-duration use.

Features 5-in-1 Modular Design

Designed for flexibility in the field, the PSL III features a 5-in-1 modular design that can be used with or without the included tripod. The system is equipped with swappable lithium-ion batteries, along with AC and DC power options for extended operation.

A quick-mount system and a single-button tripod release enables fast setup. The 360-degree rotating, 180-degree pivoting light head allows for precise positioning exactly where illumination is needed.

Even when mounted on the tripod, the light remains fully rotatable, offering added flexibility to adjust the angle without repositioning on the base. An available wireless remote provides full control from up to 75 feet away and can be paired with multiple lights for synchronized operation.

Engineered for Stability & Versatility

A key enhancement to Streamlight’s Portable Scene Light family is the PSL III’s tripod system, which is engineered for enhanced stability, storage, and field versatility.

The tripod extends up to 92 inches and features reversible feet, including spiked ends for secure placement on uneven or soft terrain and flat feet for hard surfaces. The tripod is wind-resistant up to 40 mph. Integrated battery management includes two cradles to keep backup power readily accessible. The lightweight design and built-in carry handle support easy transport and rapid deployment.

IPX-7 Rated Waterproof

The PSL III is IPX7-rated (waterproof to 1 meter for 30 minutes) with the battery installed and IPX4-rated without the battery installed. It features glove-friendly controls and a rugged, impact-resistant thermoplastic housing intended for indoor or outdoor use.

The light head measures 7.5 inches long, 7 inches wide, and 9 inches high, and weighs 7.5 pounds with the included battery. The tripod collapses to 37.7 inches for transport and extends up to 92 inches with spiked feet or 88 inches with flat feet. It weighs 13.3 pounds and features an integrated carry handle for easy transportation.

The total weight of the PSL III and tripod when mounted is 23.5 pounds.

LiteBox 1Million Search Light

The fully portable search light emits a powerful, long-range beam that can illuminate objects over 1.25 miles away, while also providing broad peripheral illumination for scene lighting uses. The light is perfectly suited for firefighting and other emergency response tasks, utility and industrial inspections, perimeter scanning, boating and marine uses, as well as long-distance outdoor navigation. Its articulating head pivots 135 degrees and rotates 270 degrees, enabling precise placement on elevated or hard-to-reach targets like power lines and high-rise structures, improving situational awareness in complex environments.

1 Million Candela

The LiteBox 1Million uses three white high-power LEDs and a deep-dish parabolic reflector to provide its long-range beam and ultra-bright light. On high, the light provides 3,300 lumens, 1 million candela and a run time of 4 hours; on low, it delivers up to 20 hours of run time, 500 lumens and 175,000 candela.

“The LiteBox 1Million provides outstanding reach, powerful brightness, portability and extended operation to help first responders, industrial crews and other professionals illuminate accident or fire scenes, roads or job sites,” Dineen said. “It’s built tough, keeping the rugged performance users expect, and it seamlessly integrates with the LiteBox charger ecosystem.”

2 Li-Ion Battery Packs

The LiteBox 1Million uses two 7.2 volt 6.8Ahr Li-Ion battery packs which are rechargeable up to 500 times.

The light’s translucent boot switch features an intuitive integrated red/green battery status indicator that also flashes red when 15 minutes or less of battery life is remaining. The scene light fully recharges in nine hours with the provided power supplies.

The LiteBox 1Million measures 12.5 inches in length, 6.8 inches high, and weighs 7 pounds with battery. Other features include:
