{"product_id":"nebo-inspector-500-plus","title":"NEBO INSPECTOR 500 PLUS","description":"\u003ch4\u003eNebo Inspector 500+ Flex Rechargeable Flashlight, 500 Lumens\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA penlight earns its place by geometry rather than power. It goes where a hand can go and a fist cannot: behind a distribution board, along a wiring loom, into the gap between an engine and a firewall, down the side of a cupboard where something has fallen. The Nebo Inspector 500+ Flex is that shape of torch given a serious output figure and a second light source, which turns a single purpose inspection tool into something worth carrying every day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTwo lights in one body\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe head produces a focused penlight beam and the side of the body carries an area light, and they are specified separately because they do genuinely different jobs. The penlight runs 500 lumens on turbo reaching 142 metres, 250 lumens on high for 3.5 hours reaching 98 metres, and 25 lumens on low for 8 hours reaching 31 metres, with a 250 lumen strobe available for 2.5 hours. The area light runs 400 lumens on turbo, 200 lumens on high for 3.5 hours, 20 lumens on low for 8 hours and a 200 lumen strobe for 2.5 hours, spreading its light across roughly 16 metres at the top setting rather than throwing it forward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy the area light changes how you work\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA narrow beam is precise and terrible at filling a space. Point one at a wiring diagram and you get a bright disc and a dark page. Switch to the area light and the whole work surface lifts evenly, with no hotspot to squint through and no shadow moving every time your hand does. Combine that with the magnetic base and the tool effectively becomes a small work lamp: stick it to the underside of a bonnet, a steel beam, a bakkie canopy or a distribution board door and both hands go back to the job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e500 lumens from 62 grams\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe whole thing weighs 62 grams, which is about the weight of a pen and a set of keys. It is machined from anodised aircraft grade aluminium and fitted with a steel belt and pocket clip, so it rides in a shirt pocket or on a belt without being noticed and without the clip bending out of shape in the first month. Power comes from a rechargeable lithium ion 10850 cell rated at 750 mAh, and a charging indicator shows the state of the battery so you find out it needs charging at your desk rather than under a vehicle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe controls that avoid a bright surprise\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDirect to low is the feature you will use every day without thinking about it. Press the switch and the torch starts at its lowest setting rather than blasting 500 lumens at whatever is thirty centimetres from your face, which is how most people use a penlight most of the time. Smart Power Control manages output and consumption so that the runtimes above hold up rather than drifting. Flex Power technology is listed among the features, and the cell specified for the light is the rechargeable lithium ion unit noted in the table below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSealed to IPX7 and built to be dropped\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rating is IPX7, meaning temporary immersion in water rather than a passing splash, and the body is rated impact resistant. For a tool that lives in a pocket alongside screwdrivers, gets set down on wet ground and occasionally falls off whatever it was clipped to, both of those matter more than the lumen figure. This is a light for electricians, mechanics, plumbers, technicians and anyone whose real problem is seeing into a narrow space with both hands full.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy 142 metres matters on an inspection light\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReaching 142 metres is an unusual figure for a penlight, and it changes what the tool covers. Most inspection torches are built purely for close work and become useless the moment you step outside, which is why people end up carrying two. Here the penlight beam is focused tightly enough to be genuinely useful at the far end of a yard, a warehouse aisle or a driveway. The result is one light in the pocket that handles a terminal block at thirty centimetres and a gate at a hundred metres without a compromise at either end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFull features and the complete specification table appear below.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRechargeable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlex-power technology\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmart power control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect-to-low\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel belt\/pocket clip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnodised aircraft-grade aluminium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWaterproof (ipx7) and impact-resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePowerful magnetic base\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBattery charging indicator\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003ctable\u003e  \n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePenlight Modes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTurbo (500 Lumens)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e30 sec \/ 142 meters\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHigh (250 Lumens)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.5 hours \/ 98 meters\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLow (25 Lumens)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8 hours \/ 31 meters\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStrobe (250 Lumens)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.5 hours \/ 98 meters\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArea Light Modes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTurbo (400 Lumens)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e30 sec \/ 16 meters\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHigh (200 Lumens)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.5 hours \/ 11 meters\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLow (20 Lumens)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8 hours \/ 6 meters\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStrobe (200 Lumens)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.5 hours \/ 11 meters\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBATTERIES\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePowered by Lithium-ion, 10850 750mAh rechargeable battery\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e62g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16.002 x 1.778\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"NEBO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50239259082992,"sku":"15831","price":877.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0574\/2651\/0008\/files\/01_nebo_inspector_500_flex_rechargeable_flashlight_-_500_lumen.jpg?v=1787812818","url":"https:\/\/neonsales.co.za\/products\/nebo-inspector-500-plus","provider":"NeonSales","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
