KLEIN TOOLS Magnetic LED Flashlight 350 Lumen Rechargeable — Twist-Focus & Magnetic Tailcap

Compact, rechargeable work light with a 350-lumen high mode, twist-to-focus beam, built-in red laser, magnetic tailcap and up to 12 hours runtime for hands-free jobsite use.

This flashlight from KLEIN TOOLS blends jobsite-grade toughness with precise illumination. Powered by an internal lithium-ion cell, it delivers both a bright spotlight and a wider flood beam via a simple twist bezel, plus an integrated red laser to mark distant or awkward targets. The unit is designed for frequent handling—drop-rated, water- and dust-shedding, and outfitted with a magnetic end cap and removable pocket clip so it stays accessible whether clipped to gear or mounted on metal surfaces.

How bright is the light and how long will it run?

The 56040 produces two certified output modes: a high 350-lumen setting for detailed tasks and a low 125-lumen setting for extended runtime. Expect roughly 6 hours on high and up to 12 hours on low from a single charge, with a tri-color LED battery gauge to check remaining power at a glance.

• High: 350 lumens — approx. 6 hours runtime
• Low: 125 lumens — approx. 12 hours runtime
• Built-in battery-level indicator with multi-color LED
• Rechargeable lithium-ion power system via included USB cable

What precision controls does it have for aiming light?

A twist-focus head lets you smoothly transition from a narrow spotlight to a broad flood for area lighting, so you can concentrate illumination where needed or cover a wider workspace. In addition, the onboard Class IIIa red laser provides a precise reference point for pointing out objects in hard-to-reach places.

• Twist-focus bezel for variable beam width
• Class IIIa red laser for accurate targeting
• Smooth adjustment for quick on-the-job changes

Can I use it hands-free and is it rugged enough for the jobsite?

The flashlight is built for hands-free convenience and rough conditions: a powerful magnetic tailcap secures it to steel surfaces, and the removable pocket clip keeps it tethered to belts or pockets. It’s engineered to endure drops and resist water and dust intrusion, making it suitable for daily professional use.

• Strong magnetic end cap for secure hands-free positioning
• Removable clip with lanyard hole for portable attachment options
• 10-foot drop rating and IP54 protection against dust and splashes

How do you recharge and monitor battery health?

Recharge with the supplied USB charging cable for easy top-ups from power banks, laptops, or wall adapters. The flashlight includes a tri-color battery indicator that lets you quickly see remaining charge so you can plan recharges and avoid unexpected shutdowns.

• Included USB cable for convenient recharging
• Tri-color LED that shows battery status at a glance
• Internal lithium-ion battery designed for repeated cycles
