I am a volunteer firefighter. Me and some of the lads in our unit have this torch. What can I say…it does what it says on the tin. It’s well built, bright enough for all purposes we usually come across and has enough size and heft that it can be operated while wearing gloves. I am a big fan of the magnetic charger. I have that wall-mounted at home so I can just grab it on the way out and throw it on the charger when coming home. Note though: We do not use this light when we go into an actual fire. For this we have specialised torches with a tilting head that also have an ATEX rating. We can hook it to our chest so we have both hands free. They are great but also cost an eye watering 350 Euros apiece, without the charger. That’s another about 100 bucks.
How do we know if battery is fully charged or not as mine just stays on 🔵blue and red 🔴 right while charging, none of the lights blink or turn off.they just stay solid.
I have this light for few years it is reliable however on a downside its heavy and large for the lumens it offers. Battery charging is not the fastest either
Couldn't agree more.. it totally should have a USB C port for charging, but maybe as well as the mag charger for those who want to wall-mount it so it's always 100% ready to go.
Interesting, but id be a little seceptable its really 1000 lumen without a light box that it could be tested in with a light meter, But still a nice torch
I know what you mean.. I've not got the equipment to accurately test their claim, but I suspect it'll be closer to 1000 than some of the products you'll find on Amazon from other less reputable brands 😉
That flashlight looks well built.
It's really solidly built.. and I love that it's rechargeable :)

Thank you so much for commenting & giving us your review. It's great to hear about your firefighting equipment too.. really interesting 🙂
Great review. Made me very interested. Thank you from Brazil.

Mine goes green when it's charged.
Tail switch is what I'm looking for night duty.

Yeah, it is a bit chunky, but I guess the larger battery means it should last longer. Do you have any recommendations for an alternative?
A USB C connection on the torch is what’s needed for charging, not that great big bespoke mag charger. If it weren’t for that, I’d buy it.
