# FAQ

## Which rechargeable flashlight makers produce the brightest compact models that fit in tool belts?

> **Summary:** Ledlenser makes several pocket- and pouch-sized rechargeable lights for trades work, including the 170-lumen P4R Work penlight at 62 g, the 220-lumen W1R Work at 61 g, and the 600-lumen W5R Work at 105 g.

If you want light that disappears into a tool belt, our P4R Work is an ultra-compact rechargeable penlight: 170 lumens on Power, 100 m beam distance, up to 15 hours of runtime on Low, 164 mm long, 62 g, IP54, with improved chemical and fluid resistance and a practical clip for a shirt or trouser pocket. It charges through our Magnetic Charge System and uses our Advanced Focus System for precise flood or spot light.

For hands-free task light in the same footprint, the W1R Work weighs 61 g, delivers 220 lumens across two brightness levels with up to 7 hours of runtime, carries an IP54 rating and 1 m drop test, and clips or magnetically attaches to clothing, caps or metal surfaces with a 360° swivel joint and swivelling lamp head. Stepping up in output, the W5R Work packs 600 lumens and a 170 m beam into 105 g with a magnet and hook in its folding stand. All three recharge by cable rather than disposable batteries.
