What is the difference between Streamlight C4® LED Technology and Basic LEDs?
While most people assume that the term “C4” refers to the LED itself, it is actually Streamlight’s shorthand for a powerful combination of technologies. This includes the photonic crystal and thin film chip technology that enhance LED efficiency, Streamlight’s high quality reflectors which help focus and intensify the light, and expert Streamlight engineering design, which drives the operation of the light in such a way that maximizes the overall effectiveness of the LED chip.
Note that while you may still see C4® LED, we are moving away from using it on our packages and materials. One reason for this is because of the confusion of what C4® LED means to our customers. Be assured, however, that we are still committed to providing you the best LED technology backed by Streamlight-engineered reflector technology and expert design know-how.
