This is my favorite flashlight! 🔦
This is a great little flashlight. It uses two AA batteries but although I have had this light for 2 years, I haven’t needed to replace the batteries yet.It’s best feature is that it has 4 levels of light output. Using a level less than full brightness, the batteries will last a long time.This light uses two buttons… one for on-off, and the other to select from the four levels of brightness.

Great EDC/bag/backup light but beware the clip
Yes or no: Yes, good valuePros:-durable anodized aluminum body-good lighting and beam pattern-battery life (both rechargeable and AA. I have not experienced the issues others discuss about poor battery life)-size-Simplicity-can clip onto baseball or other hard brim hat (slight con: depending on the length of the brim it may not be able to be clipped on straight due to length, and instead on the side of the brim so the endcap lays next to your temple instead of poking your forehead)Cons:-slippery under certain conditions in the pocket (it can fall out) but not in the hand, holding it even wet or with gloves is fine-metal clip moves (rotates in position) on flashlight and more likely to pop off after a certain amount of use-Gets hot quickly on turbo mode (but gloved hands or cool temps negate this. If you have never used a bright small handheld flashlight before, this is common across basically any bright light regardless of manufacturer or model)-Lanyard not the best quality but never broke completely on me. Easy enough to replace or make custom lanyard for the light, so don’t base your decision on the lanyard alone.Review —-Good EDC flashlight. Color and brightness are fine for reliable use up to 200ft in the main beam, which for me is infrequent. There’s a reason i have been using this model flashlight for over 5 years.Beware, the clip is prone to loosening or falling off after several months of literally every day use several times in and out of the pocket. The lanyard holds up fine but the sheath only on the thinner part that actually attaches to the light could break quickly (50/50 for me), leaving the robust fishing line type cable to keep itself on the light. One star off for that. With all that being said, it clips onto everything well especially when new. Only when it loosens do you have to pay attention. It seems to scratch and wear out the coating/anodizing which is just enough to reduce its reliability for attachment.The battery life is fine. On AA batteries this light has lasted me on medium or low settings: 70% usage and turbo 30% usage over a years time before replacement. I do not use high output settings for more than 5 minutes at a time usually, since i usually use medium or low settings for my purposes. I never get my light to where i cannot hold the torch end due to being too hot. On the proprietary rechargeable battery, i charged it once and have been using it as often as described and had yet to recharge but i just lost it, and that brings up a good point…This is now my 3rd replacement flashlight, because what happens is the clip pops off-i think- due to the pressure on it when i crouch or sit in certain chairs of cars or aircraft, or just squat to grab something near the ground, etc because the length of the light in the pocket creates a lever to pop it off with certain clothes and whatever-is-in-my-pocket choices. On rare occasion the clip gets hung onto said vehicles lap belts but in my own car, and on things like amusement park rides or whatever, it hasn’t been an issue. The relatively lightweight and thin body mean that if it pops the clip off, it may very well fall into my pocket, but it can VERY easily slip out of the pocket when just “thrown in” or otherwise not using the clip. When i noticed the clip pops off, i can hear a faint “ping” of the clip popping off into space, and I’ve been lucky to find it most times, but if not (because i was moving or there was noise or another distraction and i didn’t notice), thrunite has sent replacements. (Thats been my only experience with customer service) Brand new this isnt an issue, but from rotating in place and wearing away the anodizing, and through normal use, the clip itself either slips Because the clip is looser or pops off the flashlight entirely. Unfortunately putting more of a bend into the clip doesn’t seem to be a permanent solution, as i have had to do it a few times but now i don’t have the flashlight at all (again) so i can’t say what exactly is the failure mode.So in short, the clip is the downfall of this flashlight, but it’s served me well and for that i will overall recommend it. If not EDC its great to throw into a bag as a spare or get creative with mounting it to anything you can.

The adjustment capability is excellent it’s weight of the flash light is so light you will forget it in your pocket and it’s made of excellent material. The power of this light is excellent too. Thanks

No complaints
For 25 Dollars you cant go wrong. I bought one, lost it, then bought another one and use it for camping all the time. Nice light weight flashlight to keep in your pocket with low, med, high settings and it’ll stay on the setting it was at when you turned it off.

Needs better instructions but otherwise amazing
I purchased an earlier model of this flashlight years ago and misplaced it. Having memories that this was a great flashlight brand when I last used one a year or two ago, I ordered two of this newer model with the rechargeable battery. It’s small but mighty. The battery charges via USBC which is perfect for our family with phone and tablet chargers already setup around the house. The only issue is that once I had charged the battery I couldn’t get the light to turn on. I reviewed the included directions and still couldn’t figure it out. I then went and started searching online for videos of people using this model and quickly realized that the “on” button is hidden on the bottom end and the more obvious mode button I had been tapping was not going to turn the light on no matter how many times I tried. Once I pushed the button on the bottom end of the flashlight it turned on and gave off an impressive light display Great lights that I won’t be using very often. Hopefully me and my family can all remember how to turn them on if the power ever goes out at night!

Good flashlight, unhelpful instructions
This is a powerful flashlight. We haven’t used it all that much but we have tested its brightness and it seems like it will work for us. We might buy a second so we have more than one.The instructions on its use could be better, however. I couldn’t figure out at first how to brighten the flashlight and the instructions did not help, for example. In addition, it comes with four little rubber parts in addition to the lanyard and the flashlight. It seems that nobody else knows what these rubber parts are for, so I took a few photos and asked ChatGPT to figure it out. Here’s what it said for anyone else wanting this info:Large rubber button cover (textured piece) – This is a replacement tailcap switch boot. It protects the clicky switch on the back of the flashlight. If the original one wears out, cracks, or falls off, you can replace it by unscrewing the tailcap, removing the retaining ring, and swapping this cover in.Small round piece with a post – That’s likely a retaining plug that helps secure the switch boot inside the tailcap, or a spacer that sits between the rubber boot and the actual switch mechanism to provide correct travel.Two O-rings – These are replacement sealing O-rings that fit on the flashlight body threads (either the head or tail section). They keep the flashlight waterproof by maintaining a tight seal.

Excellent emergency flashlight that you can tuck in a bag, or a small bedside table. Very happy with it!

A good product. Whether it is worth the cost in terms of ruggedness and durability, time and usage will tell
Kevin –
being able to use regular AA batteries is awesome. The included double-long (2 AA equivalent) Lithium battery lasts a weekend camping trip with ease.

It is part of our survival bags (car and home), we choose for this one as it is small, solid and can be adjusted in terms of how much light you want.It has additional features which are nice also for camping trips- proper distance- kids proof (my kids dropped it a few times and still working like a charm)- different lumen pending on what you need- waterproof (again kids who dropped it by accident)
