I was looking at Nixie Tube Clocks on Temu and stumbled upon this flashlight for a whole 33 Canadian dollars. I saw the photos of a women using this at night and thought to myself...yeah right...fake for sure. I figured for that amount of money, what did I have to lose, I quickly talked myself into buying it along with the clock I had been eyeing,

Well both just came in and I am shocked at the power of this flashlight. Everything is in Chinese (I think) so I can't go over the states other then this model has a 6000 mAh rechargable battery, The flashlight sports a USB C port for charging (good), and a USB port for acting as a battery booster for electronics. The flashlight features a metal head with an ABS body. The on/off switch has 4 blue LEDs that tell you how many minutes you have left.

Press the button once to get full power. A second and third press will get you decreasing light modes. A forth press will activate the blinking mode. Press the button for 3 seconds will activate the COB light on the end of the flashlight.

Man is this a powerful flashlight. I would love to know the lumens but as far as I can tell, nothing is mentioned about this. What I do know is that the full power wide beam is strong.When I zoom the head out to get a spot, that is super bright. I work in a big Highschool and was able to shine the spot on the opposite wall the lenght of the school with no issues. I did make sure the hallway was clear of anyone. This is the most powerful flashlight I own.

Included in the very large accessory box is a charging cable and a short shoulder strap.

The barrel head is zoomed out for maximum spot brightness.

A size comparison to a Leatherman Surge sized multi-tool.

This picture does not do it justice. I was able to spot the opposite wall of our longest hallway in daytime.

For 33 dollars, this is fantastic so far. No clue on how durable this will be, or how long the batteries will last, etc. For this price, this light punches hard.

I bought another for a friend. He lives in the country and has a very long property that he maintains. He told me he is now able to illuminate the end of his property with ease, and was shocked at the power of this flashlight, even on wide beam. Now he can see all the wolves and coyotes gallivanting in the dark at the back end.

This is the most powerful flashlight I have ever seen in person. I was able to illuminate a far distant smoke stack at the local steel mill at night using the spot. I was floored at the reach of this flashlight.

Happy to say this flashlight keeps a charge for a long time. I heard some noises from my back yard last night and took this flashlight along for the investigation. Just a black bear that did not appreciate how bright this light is lol. I didnt even have to make any noise to move him along.

I like to have a few cheap flashlights around for one thing or another, especially in this season, as I often come home in the dark, with no house lights on. I was at Tractor Supply the other day, and they had what I presume was one of their occasional bin specials, a flashlight not too unlike the one shown above, this a 600 lumen single LED, with bright and dim switching, rechargeable via USB-C port. It appears to be made of aluminum, is reasonably hefty and looks fairly well made, with a sliding hood to change the beam from wide to fairly narrow. Anyway, it cost $4.99, so I got one. It's very bright. I don't know how long the charge will last, but as cheap flashlights go this one looks hard to beat. Comes in variety of colors, if you care.
