Uses batteries and also has a rechargeable battery. Easy to bring along. Review: This is my go-to flashlight - This is the third of these flashlights that I've bought. The other two are still fine and working well after a few years of home use. I wanted another one for my wife's night table (I have one on my side) and wanted all the flashlights to have the same operating controls, so you'd know how to use it, whichever one you grabbed. The end cap has the on/off switch, and you can even just give it a soft press to turn the light on. The brightness button has a few settings. I keep the ones in the bedroom at the dimmest setting which is good if you need a light in the middle of the night. It won't blow out your eyes with super brightness. However, there is a mode for that! Super bright will suck down battery power, but it's very bright. the two mid brightness settings are also very handy. The compact size makes it easy to use, and I guess it's waterproof because there are O-rings on the pieces that open/unscrew. I started using rechargeable AA batteries in them and have no problems. ## Features - PROVEN 500 LUMENS·AA-POWERED CLASSIC: XP-L2 LED with 5-mode operation (Firefly→Strobe).

Uses batteries and also has a rechargeable battery. Easy to bring along. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is my go-to flashlight *by C***. on January 7, 2026* This is the third of these flashlights that I've bought.

I started using rechargeable AA batteries in them and have no problems. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Flashlight, poor instructions in box *by W***M on April 20, 2023* This is a great flashlight, haven't reviewed for battery life or night vision as I just received it. Small, lightweight, very bright and I like that you can switch between different brightness levels as needed. One thing that should be improved is the instruction booklet in the packet. No instruction at all on what batteries it takes or how to put in the flashlight. I have similar ones, so just guessed by size and configuration that it was 2 AA batteries and how to put them in. Thought it was broken as it would not turn on when I pressed the button on the bottom. Turns out I had to also press a tiny silver button located on the end where the bulb is located. Instructions do describe that this button switches the brightness and switches to "firefky mode" and to switch to Strobe Mode. However, you must press it to turn on the light initially as well. This was not described at all in the booklet or on the box. Just some feedback for purchasers who are less patient and won't experiment to figure out how to turn it on. Other than that I am happy with the flashlight. It is on the pricy side, so will review again if battery life or any other items are not to spec. ## Frequently Bought Together - ThruNite LED Flashlight Archer 2A V3, 500 Lumens Mini AA Flashlight with Lanyard, IPX8 Water-Resistant Dual Switch Outdoor Flash Light for Hiking, Camping, Everyday Use, EDC - CW - Grill Rescue BBQ Replaceable Scraper Cleaning Head, Bristle Free - Durable and Unique Scraper Tools for Cast Iron or Stainless-Steel Grates, Barbecue Cleaner (Non Scraper Brush) - [MADE IN KOREA] ROYAL Gold Nose hair trimmer for men, Golden Birdie, Allergy-free, Manual, Battery-free, Waterproof, Painless with Twelve Dual-Edged blades, Patented Mechanism ET-4PG --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/224708325-archer-2a-v3-led-flashlights-500-lumens-aa-flashlight-lanyard](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/224708325-archer-2a-v3-led-flashlights-500-lumens-aa-flashlight-lanyard) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-05-06*
