Streamlight Releases Portable Scene Light III

Streamlight's Portable Scene Light III offers up to 10,000 lumens, waterproof design and a flexible modular system, ideal for fire and emergency services.

Streamlight, Inc., a leading provider of high-performance lighting, has launched the Portable Scene Light III (PSL III), a high-output, waterproof lighting system delivering up to 10,000 lumens for fire, emergency response, military, industrial, and outdoor applications. The new system debuted at FDIC International in Indianapolis, IN.

The PSL III delivers powerful, adaptable performance featuring 12 LEDs with wide-pattern reflectors, providing uniform scene illumination and three output levels to match the task. On High, it 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 8 hours of run time for longer-duration use.

The PSL III's 5-in-1 modular design allows it to be utilized with or without the supplied tripod, giving it versatility in the field. For longer operation, the system has AC and DC power sources in addition to interchangeable lithium-ion batteries. Quick setup is made possible with a single-button tripod release and a quick-mount system. The light head can be precisely positioned where illumination is required thanks to its 360-degree rotation and 180-degree pivot. The light may be fully rotated even while it is installed on the tripod, providing additional freedom to change the angle without moving the base. There is a wireless remote that may be coupled with several lights for synchronized operation and offers complete control from a distance of up to 75 feet.

The PSL III's tripod system, which is designed for improved stability, storage, and field mobility, is a significant addition to Streamlight's Portable Scene Light series. The tripod has convertible feet with flat feet for hard surfaces and spiked tips for solid placement on uneven or soft terrain. It can reach a length of 92-inches. The tripod can withstand winds of up to 40 mph. Two cradles are part of integrated battery management to provide easy access to backup power. Easy transportation and quick deployment are made possible by the lightweight design and integrated carry handle.

“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.”

When the battery is attached, the PSL III is IPX7-rated (waterproof to 1 meter for 30 minutes); when it is not, it is IPX4-rated. Its robust, impact-resistant polypropylene casing is designed for both indoor and outdoor use, and its controls are glove-friendly.

The light head weighs 7.5 pounds with the accompanying battery and is 7.5-inches long, 7-inches wide and 9-inches high. The tripod can extend up to 92 inches with spiked feet or 88 inches with flat feet, and it collapses to 37.7 inches for transportation. It has an integrated carry handle for convenient transporting and weighs 13.3 lbs. When mounted, the light and tripod weigh a total of 23.5 pounds.

The Portable Scene Light III system has an MSRP of $1,759 and the Portable Scene Light III - Light only has an MSRP of $1,014. Both are backed by Streamlight’s Limited Lifetime Warranty.
