Durability & Water Resistance

Find answers about IP ratings, water resistance, drop protection, and build quality.
What is the flashlight's IP rating, and what does it mean?

Every X-Series light is rated IP68. The 6 means fully dust-tight, and the 8 means it can be submerged in water, up to 2 meters on the X-Series, so it handles far more than splashes or rain. See how the lights hold up in the Proof Lab.

How deep can it be submerged in water?

Up to 2 meters (about 6.5 feet). Every X-Series light is IP68-rated: dust-tight and submersible, well beyond splash or rain resistance. See your model's specs on its product page: X14, X16, X30 or XP40. See how the lights hold up in the Proof Lab.

Will it survive being dropped?

Yes. Every X-Series light has an aircraft-grade aluminum body and is drop-tested to 1.5 meters, built to take daily impact and accidental drops. See how the lights hold up in real-world testing in the Proof Lab.

What is the housing made of?

Aircraft-grade aluminum — the same material used across the X-Series lineup for its strength-to-weight ratio and resistance to daily wear and impact.

What conditions is it designed to handle?

Built for real-world use: rain, mud, snow, dust, and accidental drops. The IP68 rating and aluminum housing work together so the light keeps performing in the field, not just in ideal conditions.
