Material & Build | Professional outdoor/medical use | Industry: Plastic (IP54 dust/waterproof) ▲ Base: Aluminum (IP65, MIL-STD-810G) ▲ Advanced: Reinforced aluminum + ruler (ISO 14617) | Base: Durable for rugged environments; Advanced: Combines measurement tool for precision | Base/Advanced are heavier than plastic; Advanced adds bulk for ruler feature |
Light Output & Colors | Camping, medical exams, multitasking | Industry: White only ▲ Base: White/Blue/Red ▲ Advanced: 5 colors (incl. warm yellow for ophthalmic use) | Advanced: Warm yellow reduces eye strain; versatile color options for varied tasks | More colors may complicate quick selection; yellow light less bright than white |
Waterproof Rating | Rainy conditions, water exposure | Industry: IP54 (dust/water resistance) ▲ Base/Advanced: IP65 (3m water/dustproof) | IP65 withstands splashes/submersion up to 3m; ideal for outdoor use | Not fully submersible (requires IP68 for deeper water use) |
Battery & Runtime | Long trips, extended use | Industry: AA (4hr runtime) ▲ Base: AAA (6hr) ▲ Advanced: AAA + rechargeable option (10hr) | Advanced: Rechargeable reduces battery waste; longer runtime for all-day use | Rechargeable adds cost; non-rechargeable models may have shorter shelf life |
Measurement Scale | Engineering, technical measurements | Industry: No ▲ Base: No ▲ Advanced: 15cm ruler (ISO 14617) integrated into body | Advanced: Quick access to ruler for on-the-spot measurements | Only available in premium model; ruler may scratch easily if not protected |
Lighting Solutions | Customized professional needs | Industry: Standard designs ▲ Base: Customizable colors ▲ Advanced: Custom circuitry (EN 60598) | Advanced: Tailored light patterns for specialized tasks (e.g., medical exams) | Customization requires additional lead time/cost |
