Applicable to all NightStars, except as noted
- Polycarbonate, waterproof housing - Tough enough to take extreme/repeated impacts
- Bright white LED - rated for 100,000 hours of operation drawing
up to 5.4 Volts (NightStar CS series rated for 50,000 hours).
- Charging magnet - core strength of 30 million Gauss with a
surface strength of 5200 Gauss (NightStar CS is smaller - contact us for exact figures).
- Wire Coil - coil that the magnet passed through to generate electricity
- 1 Farad 5.5 Volt capacitor - holds the charge generated by
passing the magnet through the coil
- Glow-in-the-dark switchs - allows the
NightStar to be turned on and off without penetrating the
waterproof housing
- Plastic lens - focuses and concentrates the light from the LED
