I have both of Streamlight’s excellent Wedge flashlights, the original, which is about 5.5 inches long and the newer, shorter, more pocketable 4.25-inch long Wedge XT which is ideal for EDC.
They’re tough and easy to carry. Now Streamlight has slimmed the Wedge design down even more, announcing the new, even thinner Wedge SL which is about the size and thickness of a carpenter pencil.
With a tail switch that is engineered for one-handed operation, you can choose between momentary and constant-on lighting modes. High mode delivers 100 lumens, 300 candela and a 35-meter beam distance, and Low mode has an output of 50 lumens, 150 candela and a 24-meter beam distance. This everyday carry flashlight also features THRO mode, activated by a 3-second press, providing 500 lumens of maximum output. With the TEN-TAP programmable switch, you can customize your lighting experience by selecting the output modes to suit your needs.
“We created the Wedge SL as an ultra-portable lighting tool that doesn’t compromise on performance,” said Michael F. Dineen, Streamlight President. “It’s low profile, rugged, and packed with features that make it ideal for both professional and everyday carry applications, including auto work and outdoor use.”
The Wedge SL features an unbreakable acrylic lens and a thin unibody design crafted from Type II MIL-Spec anodized aluminum. Powered by an integrated lithium polymer battery, the light recharges via USB-C and includes a four-level LED battery status indicator with charge alerts. Additional features include a stainless steel injection-molded pocket clip, multi-function tactile switch, and durable IPX4 water resistance with 1-meter impact testing.
Meet The Wedge SL: A masterclass in minimalist engineering. Slimmed to perfection. Built to perform.
This ultra-thin USB-C rechargeable inspection light delivers up to 500 lumens of powerful illumination, when and where it counts. On the job, under the hood, or exploring after… pic.twitter.com/BRltwOO3o3— Streamlight, Inc. (@Streamlight) October 21, 2025
Available in Black, Coyote, and Silver, the Wedge SL is 5.65 inches long, 0.55 inches wide, 0.28 inches thick, and weighs 1.14 oz. It has an MSRP of $110 and is backed by Streamlight’s Limited Lifetime Warranty.

Hmm, working on my Christmas list…
“…has an MSRP of $110 …”
Is that the MSRP price for the model with the features in solid gold?
Handy to keep in the tool box for work…but at just 100 lumens, not so much for EDC.
It has a 500 lumen burst mode.
I don’t wear women’s pants, and I doubt even the strictest security checkpoint is going to care about a flashlight beyond MAYBE turning it on to prove it’s real, so I don’t see a reason to pay more over my Microstream for a quarter of the price.
Maybe to use in a dark room to help find your real flashlight.
😊
it won’t roll away. but neither will it tailstand.
looks good for mouth deployment.
i’m assuming the battery is proprietary if it’s replaceable.
i want much lower moonlight lows.
