Description
The Mercury HDR02 is a heavy duty rubber torch built for regular use in tough conditions. It's fitted with three wide angle straw hat LEDs that spread light broadly, so you get useful coverage rather than a single narrow beam. The all rubber construction gives it a solid feel in the hand and helps it stand up to knocks and drops during everyday work.
Weather and shock resistant, this torch carries an IPX3 rating, which means it copes with rain and splashing water from most angles. The soft form body has an anti-roll grip, so it stays put when you set it down on a sloped or uneven surface. A wrist strap is included, giving you a simple way to keep it secure while you work with both hands or move between tasks. The rubber housing also cushions the torch if it's dropped.
This model runs on two D cell batteries, which are not supplied, so you'll want a pair to hand before first use. It's a practical choice for the garage, shed, van or garden, and it suits anyone who needs a dependable torch (or flashlight, as it's known in the US) that can take some rough handling. The wide beam and steady grip make it easy to use for close work or general lighting around the home.
