NEBO Slyde 100 Flashlight
The NEBO Slyde 100 is our compact work light and flashlight in one durable tool. With 100 lumens of LED power, this pocket-sized light features a slide-out COB work light panel, making it perfect for mechanics, electricians, and anyone who needs hands-free task lighting.
We built the Slyde 100 with a powerful magnetic base and steel clip so you can position it exactly where you need light. The anodized aircraft-grade aluminum body stands up to drops, weather, and years of daily use. Whether you’re working under the hood, inspecting tight spaces, or need a reliable EDC light, the Slyde 100 delivers professional-grade illumination in a package that fits in your pocket.

Dual lighting modes for work and carry
The Slyde 100 combines two essential lighting tools in one compact body. The primary 100-lumen LED flashlight provides a focused beam that reaches up to 100 feet, perfect for navigating dark spaces or spotting details at a distance. Press the tail button once for high mode, twice for low.
Slide the top section forward to reveal the COB (Chip on Board) work light panel. This flood-style light illuminates your entire workspace with bright, even coverage—ideal for engine bays, crawl spaces, electrical panels, and detail work. The magnetic base lets you stick the Slyde 100 to any metal surface, freeing both hands for your task. We designed this dual-mode system for professionals and DIYers who refuse to carry multiple lights.
Aircraft-grade aluminum construction
We machine every Slyde 100 body from solid aluminum alloy, then anodize the surface for superior scratch and corrosion resistance. This isn’t plastic that cracks on the first drop—the aluminum housing protects the LED circuitry and battery compartment through years of hard use.
The anodized finish creates a micro-hardened layer that resists wear from keys, coins, and tool contact in your pocket or bag. At just 4.75 inches long and 3.2 ounces with batteries, the Slyde 100 carries like a quality knife or multi-tool. The knurled grip texture keeps it secure in wet or gloved hands.
Battery life and power options
The Slyde 100 runs on three AAA batteries, which we include with every unit. In high flashlight mode, expect approximately 1.5 hours of continuous runtime. Low mode extends that to 3 hours. The COB work light runs for 2.5 hours on high and 5 hours on low—plenty of power for extended projects.
We chose AAA batteries for their universal availability. No proprietary cells, no charging cables to lose. When your light dims, swap in fresh batteries from any gas station, hardware store, or convenience shop. Keep a spare set in your vehicle or tool bag, and you’ll never be without light. The battery compartment seals with an O-ring gasket for weather protection and easy access.

NEBO Slyde 100 Flashlight Questions
The Slyde 100 produces 100 lumens in flashlight mode, which is significantly brighter than most phone lights (typically 20-50 lumens) and comparable to mid-range EDC flashlights. The focused LED beam reaches approximately 100 feet, making it suitable for navigation, inspection work, and general use.
The COB work light panel delivers flood-style illumination that covers wide areas without the hotspot of a focused beam. This makes it ideal for close-range tasks where you need even lighting across your entire workspace rather than a narrow spotlight.
Yes, the neodymium magnet base is strong enough to hold the Slyde 100 securely at any angle, including upside down on overhead surfaces. We’ve tested it on vehicle frames, steel beams, toolboxes, and appliance panels with reliable holding power.
The magnet works on any ferrous (iron-containing) metal surface. It won’t stick to aluminum, stainless steel, or non-metallic materials. For those surfaces, use the steel pocket clip to attach the light to nearby fabric or structures.
The flashlight mode uses a single focused LED that creates a concentrated beam reaching up to 100 feet. This spotlight effect is perfect for navigating in the dark, spotting objects at a distance, or inspecting specific areas.
The work light mode activates when you slide the top section forward, revealing a COB (Chip on Board) LED panel that produces wide, even flood lighting. This illuminates your entire workspace—ideal for mechanical work, electrical panels, or any task where you need both hands free and consistent lighting across a broad area. Both modes offer high and low brightness settings.
With three AAA batteries installed, the Slyde 100 provides approximately 1.5 hours of continuous runtime in high flashlight mode, 3 hours in low flashlight mode, 2.5 hours in high work light mode, and 5 hours in low work light mode.
In typical intermittent use—turning the light on and off throughout your workday or activities—the batteries can last several weeks. The light dims gradually as batteries deplete, giving you warning to replace them before complete failure. We include three AAA batteries with every Slyde 100.
The Slyde 100 carries an IP64 rating, which means it’s fully dust-tight and protected against water splashes from any direction. You can safely use it in rain, snow, or wet work environments without damaging the internal electronics.
It’s not submersible—don’t drop it in a bucket of water or take it underwater. For typical outdoor use including camping, hiking in wet weather, or working in rain, the IP64 protection is more than adequate. The O-ring sealed battery compartment prevents moisture from reaching the batteries and circuitry.
The NEBO Slyde 100 is backed by our lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. If any component fails under normal use, contact our customer service team and we’ll repair or replace it at no charge.
For normal wear items or accidental damage not covered by warranty, we stock replacement parts including pocket clips, lens covers, and battery compartment caps. Visit our <a href=”/flashlight-accessories/”>accessories page</a> or contact us directly for parts availability and pricing. The solid aluminum construction means most of the light is a single durable piece that won’t break under normal use.
The steel pocket clip is designed with smooth, rounded edges that won’t snag or tear pocket fabric. Thousands of users carry the Slyde 100 daily in jeans, work pants, and cargo pockets without damage.
The clip is spring-loaded to grip firmly without excessive pressure. It holds the light securely during movement and activity but releases easily when you need it. If you prefer not to use the clip, it can be removed with a small screwdriver, leaving the light’s smooth aluminum body for pocket carry.
