Brady V4500 Barcode Scanner Wireless Bluetooth, 1D/2D/QR, Omnidirectional, Cradle Kit, IP65, Blue/Gray/Yellow

The Brady V4500 Flex-Scan Bluetooth is a rugged handheld 2D area imager designed for professional inventory, warehousing, manufacturing and mobile point-of-sale environments that require reliable barcode capture and cordless mobility. Combining omnidirectional scanning for 1D, 2D and QR codes with Bluetooth 5 Low Energy connectivity, the V4500 family delivers fast reads on tiny, reflective or damaged labels while minimizing operator handling time. Built to withstand industrial use, variants offer IP65 ingress protection, multi-foot drop and crush resistance, inductive charging and a full-shift battery capable of tens of thousands of scans, making it suitable for continuous shift operations and system integration in demanding B2B workflows.

Key Features

• Wireless mobility: Bluetooth 5 Low Energy (Class II) cordless connectivity enables flexible deployment and reduces cable constraints across warehouses and production floors.
• High-performance omnidirectional scanning: 2D area imager technology captures 1D, 2D and QR codes quickly from multiple angles to improve throughput and reduce rescans.
• Rugged industrial design: IP65 ingress protection, multi-foot drop resistance and crush resistance deliver dependable operation in harsh environments.
• Extended runtime: Rechargeable lithium‑ion battery and inductive charging support all-day operation with up to 75,000 scans per charge for sustained productivity.
• Advanced decoding and visibility: Cortex decoder and on-device feedback/data parsing improve read reliability on high‑density, shiny or hard-to-read codes and streamline integration with host systems.
