MANKER U21 1300 Lumens CREE XHP35 HI 2A USB Fast Rechargeable 18650/26650 LED Flashlight 700 Meters Small Powerful Thrower Flashlight

I think this is a terrific spot light. Its spot is very tight and very intense. The button operates the same as the Manker U11 with a press and hold needed to turn off the light no matter what it's doing. The Strobe,SOS, and lighting the power button option are located on a secondary loop, leaving the light brightness levels alone and easy to access on it's primary loop. There is also an undocumented Pro option on the secondary loop that offers a brilliant beacon, the light in turbo full tilt, a different color button light and that's about it. So it's fun too. Lastly, it doesn't heat up much even on turbo. I bought a pair of Keeppower 5200mah 26650 batteries which work perfectly with it.

Seriously awsome flashlight at a good price point. Usable spill, but great focus down-range. Throw is further than most will be able to see. Like the option for 18650, but the 26650 will run much longer. A little electrical tape around the 18650 carrier fixes the rattle issue. "Special" mode easy to get into and out of - strobe and sos beacon. Good packaging, with extra o-ring, lanyard.

Amazing amount of light out! The lowest level illuminates the STOP sign at the end of the block and it only gets better as you increase the output level. On Turbo, it lights up the back of the buildings a full block away. This IS a hand held search light when on High or Turbo, yet is quite usable for other applications at lower settings.My only complaint is a relatively minor one. The User Interface (UI) is not as simple/usable as it could be. That said, once you have gone through it a dozen times or so, it becomes less of an issue.I got a pair of the 26650 batteries, as suggested, and I am happy with the result. The included sleeve to handle the 18650 batteries lets them rattle a LOT more than I care for. With the 26650 battery it is a gem.Update 1/17/17Went to buy a second one and find that the price is UP $20. Checked back and it has been up since just after I bought the first one. AND, oh by the way (OBTW for acronym fans) it is still for sale at other vendors for the original $64.95. Guess where I'm purchasing my second one from (roll eyes).

Great little thrower, packs a lot of power with 26650. I just put it in my pocket then I've got a very nice little spotlight primed and ready. It's got a bit of heft to it w/battery. I just love the size of it. Nice colored selection button pink or a real nice blue light that one push puts it in turbo.

Very bright, long throwing light. Not suitable for up close work.

Wow! This is bargin for a compact 26650/18650 searchlight, feels excellent in the hand very comfortable the quality is amazing for the price. This flashlight throws a laser beam of light! Super bright as expected, I tested at night and it threw a beam like a helicopter light! It has USB charging,and a very cool button night light or locator standby light so it can be found in the dark, this is going to set a trend with using 26650 batteries because they have higher capacity and last super long! In all honesty, this is a badass workhorse flashaholics dream light.....

The Manker U21 is well built and functions great. The UI is simple. I am very satisfied with it. This is a quality built light. I use it with 26650 battery.

This is a premium flashlight that could easily go for 100 bucks. This thing is so powerful that I'm really surprised I only paid 60 bucks for it. But I think the trade off was having to wait over two weeks to get it, but it was still worth it. The fit and finish are that of a FENIX or NITECORE or any other one of those higher end flashlight manufacturers. The manual stated that it has 120,000 cd which is candela power. The more of this, the tighter the hotspot is and the farther the flashlight throws. Most flashlights in this price range don't even have half of that. The manual also states 1300 lm and based on my vast collection of flashlights I'm going to say that is probably about right. This is more of a search and rescue type flashlight. It's not something that can easily fit in your back pocket but still small enough to fit in your jacket pocket. It can use either a longer lasting rechargeable lithium 26650 battery or the smaller 18650. The UI uses a single button on the side and is pretty straightforward for the most part. The manual states you can program it to operate a different way but I haven't really gotten into that and don't really think it's necessary. The way it comes programmed works just fine for me. I highly recommend this flashlight for someone who wants something solidly built for a fraction of the typical cost.
