Came across a decent little flashlight that so far has worked great and will sure light things up. Held in the fist it would put a hurt in someone's noggin too. It has a sliding sleeve that will narrow the beam from wide to about a 3' beam at 100'. That and putting it in strobe mode will blind someone temporarily really well too. LinkComes with everything including the rechargeable battery and charge cable, and an adapter tube to use 3 AA batteries in an emergency. Charges off the USB port on your computer, and if your phone goes dead unexpectedly reverse the cable and plug the phone into the flashlight to recharge the phone. Phil

I have several very similar to this, and like them very much. The only ways they are different is 1) there is no AAA option; 2) there is no annoying tactical strobe function. The USB charge feature is great, and they are very bright.

Not hardly, the battery tech has only been around since 2014 and marketed since 2020... as to the super bright led chip (not a bulb) it is the same. As to it being from China, well until American Made catches up with the tech and manufacturing... what's there to say.

It now shows 9000,000 Lumens! Lol No, it's not 9 million lumens. It's a mere 900,000. They have dropped the price to $26.
