Eagleville, PA — July 20, 2026 — Streamlight® Inc., a leading provider of high-performance lighting, announced the launch of upgraded versions of its popular Trident® and Septor® headlamps. With a modern, new look, improved performance, and the same rugged reliability users have trusted for years, the updated headlamps provide versatile, hands-free lighting for industrial professionals and outdoor enthusiasts.

Powered by three AAA alkaline batteries, the Trident and Septor offer a low-profile design with a durable polycarbonate body and elastomer over-mold construction for enhanced durability in demanding environments and all weather conditions. Both headlamps feature:

  • Low-profile, lightweight construction for all-day comfort
  • A 90-degree tilting head for precise beam placement
  • IPX7-rated waterproof design; waterproof to 1 meter for 30 minutes
  • 2-meter impact resistance testing

  • Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C, D; Class II, Division 2, Groups F, G; Class III, Temp Code: T4 safety ratings for use in hazardous locations

The upgraded Trident headlamp combines long-range and close-up illumination in one unit. It features a single white spot LED and three white flood LEDs, allowing users to easily switch between focused distance lighting and broad task illumination. Its push-button operation cycles through one flood LED, three flood LEDs, the spot LED, and Off modes.

In Spot LED mode, the Trident delivers 200 lumens, 4,000 candela, a beam distance of 126 meters, and a run time of 6.5 hours. Using three LEDs, it provides 40 lumens, 40 candela, a 13-meter beam, and up to 14 hours of operation. With one LED, the headlamp offers 15 lumens, 10 candela, a beam distance of 6 meters, and an extended run time of 28 hours, giving users the flexibility to balance brightness and battery life for the task at hand.

The upgraded Septor headlamp is engineered for wide-area task lighting. Its powerful white LED delivers uniform flood illumination ideal for inspections, maintenance work, and other hands-free applications requiring broad, even light coverage. Its push-button switch cycles through Low, Medium, and High output settings.

The Septor produces 200 lumens, 1,500 candela, a beam distance of 77 meters, and a run time of 5 hours in High mode. Medium mode delivers 80 lumens, 600 candela, a 49-meter beam, and 27 hours of operation. On Low, it provides 25 lumens, 190 candela, a beam distance of 28 meters, and 55 hours of continuous use.

“Whether working on a job site or navigating the outdoors after dark, users need dependable hands-free lighting that performs in challenging conditions,” said Allen Lance, Vice President of Sales. “The upgraded Trident and Septor build on the trusted legacy of these headlamps with modernized designs and enhanced functionality while maintaining the rugged construction and versatility users expect from Streamlight.”

With included batteries, the Trident weighs 4.38 ounces and the Septor weighs 4.35 ounces. Both models are available in yellow and include elastic head and rubber hard hat straps.
