Pokelit AA

You can see in the second picture I took the main beam is large or wide. It is bright and works perfect for indoors. Which is why it's at my gaming desk. When you drop something this is the correct tool for the job.The battery lasts quite a long time. I use it every day and it lasts at least a week before it needs to be charged. You have to remove the battery to charge it with a USB-C cord. It takes about an hour to get a full charge in the included lithium cell.This light claims 1000 lumens. It's close to that. I have a larger work flashlight with a higher capacity battery cell that produces 1000 lumens and outside it has a lot more range, it's a little brighter and more focused( smaller main beam). The main beam is smaller so it goes farther and looks whiter. It depends on what you want. A longer bulkier light is not good for my desk. I like to stand it up so I can find it when I drop something or need it.The size is made to clip in a shirt pocket also. No it's not as bright as a 2 cell light but it's way easier and lighter to carry. Honestly it's my favorite size. I also like having the button on the end instead of the side. It's easier to use. I have a lot of new led lights that I have bought this year. This one is my favorite so far. It's just right size.The light has 3 brightness modes. 1.Low for I have no idea what, it's not bright enough to even use imo. 2. Medium for up close work. 3 Max bright, this will get hot after about a min. This is NORMAL. A lot of power creates a lot of heat. All my good LED lights get hot on the high setting. Thus light has a different way to switch modes than any other light I have so it takes some getting used to. After you turn them on some led lights will let you tap the button to change the brightness. This one requires you to turn it on and off quickly to change modes. You get used to it but it's kind of clunky at first. If you just turn it on and use it then turn it off it will stay on the current brightness mode.If you want a well built compact light for indoors that you can carry in your pocket with ease this is your light. This light has waterproofing and is built to take outdoor use but it's not really what it is best at. Tons of light from a tiny frame. Good choice and I recommend this product.

Great little flashlight. Fits easily in my pocket, I'm surprised how many times I was in the middle of something, then realized I needed a flashlight, had to stop what I was doing, get up off the floor etc. etc. Now I just reach in my pocket and it's there. I bought three more fir my granddaughters purses and my grandsons pocket. Its small and bright. Very happy with it.

Good EDC flashlight. Powerful light even with 1.5V disposable Alkaline AA but it's power really shines with included rechargeable 3.7V AA lithium. 3 power stages work with both. Only negative is low setting is to dim in dimly lit room with both batteries. Probably bright enough outside when dark on low setting.

BLUF: Nice little pocket light, I paid $17 and feel like it's a good valueIt's about the size of my index/middle fingers, slightly longer, can work as a pocket clip carry opposite side from pocketknife. Seems durable, and double clip seems strong, holds well and light rides low in pocket. It has a couple spots with different types of knurling, but they seem more for looks than function as none of them did much to help with grip, feels kind of smooth and if wet or using gloves it might get clumsy to hold. But OTOH easy to get out of a pocket quickly. Beyond clip it has no extra anti-roll feature, and it cannot tail-stand. Good for EDC or to stow in a bag where space is at a premium. Includes a wrist strap that can attach to the clip.Beam is bright on high, gets warm fairly quickly. It claims 550 lumens and output seems to match up to other lights I have in that range. It does have multiple light output modes, but is tricky to switch between them and use the memory feature. Not impossible, just was a little hard for me. Low is essentially a Moon mode. Haven't tested water resistance, but it does come with a couple extra O rings, so assume it will do well.Battery is USB-C rechargeable Acebeam branded, 920mAH Li-ion, 3.7v, 3.4Wh, ARC14500/AA. Charged up fairly quick, but haven't done a battery run-down test yet. Exact replacement battery available at Battery Junction for $8.90. Similar batteries are available for similar price. Confirmed it works with regular AA, which was a must-have for me. Comes with a 4-inch USB/USB-C charge cord.Overall 4/5 stars, 8.5/10, A-/B+. I bought two, I'm going to keep them both. If you want to spend a few dollars more for additional features, Sofirn SP10/SP10Pro are options for same EDC size (slightly thicker?). If you want a larger tactical size, 1800/2000 lumen range, Sofirn is the only real game in town in terms of bang for the buck, Acebeam doesn't compete there at all. But all things considered I would recommend this light.UPDATE: Used it for a bit longer, and still impressed with light output, size and simplicity of it, just wish it would be a deeper pocket carry clip, and the switch were more protected from accidental turn-on. I've only accidentally had it turn on once and use up the battery, but once was enough. Didn't mention it before, but while it works with regular AA battery, it's not very bright with it. Included lion battery makes it brightest.UPDATE 2: The pocket clip I've come to live with, no issues there, but still have occasional accidental turn-on situations where battery ran out and I never knew it. If they fix this issue with a better protected button, I would give it 5 stars for the price.UPDATE 3: I still like it, but the pocket clip bends too easily. I had to toss the clip as it wouldn't hold it's shape. Bending metal too many times can weaken it, which is probably the case, but it still wasn't strong enough to keep it's shape in the first place. I've had to top off the battery more frequently lately.

This tiny flashlight is surprising bright! Brighter than I expected it to be, and I love the fact that it can be used with rechargeable 14500 batteries or AAs, it’s probably one of the best out there for portability and dual fuel capabilities. I’d recommend the Nichia version for the accurate color representation, even though the lumens are technically lower(550 instead of 1000 on turbo). If you are looking for a brighter version I’d say check out the Acebeam e75, it also uses nichia 519 emitters. This light is perfect to keep in your backpack or work bag or purse, you’ll find you need it more often than you think!One other thing I’d like to mention is the tactical switching on the tail is a welcome feature. You can half press to cycle through the low, medium and high settings, and once you find the one you like, the light will memorize it for next time provided a second has passed since selecting that setting.Buy this light!! Especially when it’s on sale
