AA 3.0 LED Flashlight, Lumintop 900 Lumens, Extremely High Brightness, IPX68 Rechargeable Flashlight, Flashlight for Camping, Daily Situations, Dog Walking, etc.

Pour la chasse camping etc

La linterna es de buena calidad, se nota al roscar como entra suavemente, por lo que los acabados son buenos y el tamaño es ideal EDC. El verde esta bonito, aunque en la caja aparece reseñado un verde oliva, que me hubiera gustado que estuviera a la venta. La caja es pequeña y simple, trae su precinto en condiciones (nada de precintos cutres). La luz con la batería 14500 que trae (recargable con conector USB C en la propia batería, aunque no trae cable de carga) es bastante potente (y claro, a máxima potencia y ser tan pequeña, se calienta), con baterías AA es menor pero decente. Los complementos están muy bien, la campana difusora esta optima (brilla en la oscuridad tras el uso, ya que es fluorescente, la goma de cierre del cristal también es fluorescente, al apagar se ve el aro de luz. La cola con imán, el imán es bastante potente (se abre la luz roscando y abriendo la cabeza o la cola). Trae 2 juntas de repuesto. Como punto negativo, trae dos leds que iluminan la goma del pulsador, y estan asi siempre cuando se apagaba la linterna, si usas la batería 14500 (con baterías AA desechables no pasa), por lo que si no desenroscas un poco, ira drenando la batería, no se entiende que eso no se pueda desconectar o simplemente no se le ve la gracia, pero parece que ya Lumintop lo traia en las versiones anteriores y no lo ve como punto negativo el no poder al menos desconectarlo, ese pero molesta, pero bueno la linterna esta muy bien.

This is my new EDC. Like all tiny bright flashlights it gets hot on the brightest setting. It is very bright when needed, long battery life on medium and low settings. I can grip it and use my hand as a heat sink on the brightest setting. I love the small size and the royal blue color. It never leaves my side, at night I set the brightness to the low setting, for carry it's on the second brightest setting. On turbo it lights up my entire half acre back yard just fine. It's beam is a little spread (not to tight), but still plenty of throw, which I really like in an EDC. I upgraded the battery to the Fenix 1050mah, for a slight increase in battery life. Since it gets hot, not sure I can recommend it for other than gear-heads who don't mind managing the heat. The benefit of course is you get massive brightness in a small package when you need it. Kudos to Lumintop, this one is a home run for me. I don't mind the lack of a lunar mode, the low is low enough for me. On the previous tool 2.0 I removed the LED cap resistors so it doesn't glow as it was not an EDC but a shelf backup, so I needed it to stay charged. But for every day use the glowing cap light isn't bad at all. And lastly, the price is great for such a powerful useful little light.

Gruwelijk veel licht uit deze kleine zaklamp. Alleen met de bijgevoegde oplaadbare batterij krijg je het maximale uit deze zaklamp. Zijn geld waard.

The Lumintop Tool AA is an excellent little flashlight. I’ve carried one (the v2 version) in my pocket for several years and used it pretty much every day, and it has stood the test of time very well. The low and medium settings are fine for most purposes, while high and turbo give a serious amount of light when you really need it for a few minutes. The ability to run with AA as well as 14500 batteries is potentially very useful. I’m pleased with this v3 but I’m not sure it’s an improvement over the v2. The Osram P9 emitter is a little more efficient than the Cree XP-L HD in the v2, but the colour rendering isn’t great and the beam pattern is not as uniform. I think the claimed increase in distance has as much to do with the brighter centre spot as with the efficiency of the P9. With the clicky switch it tail-stands quite well. The supplied diffuser is a nice idea but indoors it’s easier just to point the beam at the ceiling. The magnetic tailcap makes the torch significantly shorter but means you have to twist it (or the head of the torch) to turn it off and on or change modes. In a pocket I suspect it would turn on too readily – and turbo mode could burn you! The strobe mode is pretty much useless, not least because you’d struggle to activate it in a real emergency. Thankfully it’s well hidden, so there’s little chance of turning it on by accident. I’ve never much liked the illuminated tailcap. It uses enough current (~0.5 mA) to drain the battery over a period of weeks, while not being bright enough to locate the torch if you drop it, say in long grass. It is bright enough to find in a tent or on a bedside table, if that’s your thing. My v2’s tail light was blue; the v3 has a red-green-blue colour-changing light show that irritated me enough that I got out the soldering iron and fixed it for good.
