LUMINTOP Torch Flashlight Tool AA2.0 Mini Torch 650 Lumens Cree LED Pocket-sized 5 Modes Powerful Small Flashlight Compatible with AA and 14500 Li-ion Battery IPX-8 Waterproof for Camping, Emergency

Bis auf die Größenangaben, die nicht zutreffen (zum heutigen Stichtag 05.01.2024 - Amazon ist bereits um Korrektur gebeten worden), ist alles wie beschrieben und macht nach dem Auspacken einen guten Eindruck. Die Lampe misst 7cm in der Länge und 1,9cm im Durchmesser. Gehäuse ist präzise gearbeitet, keine Grate, alle Gewinde leichtgängig aber fest. Der Clip ist abnehmbar, was bedeutet, man kann ihn andersherum wieder anbringen und Lampe z.B. an der Cappy festmachen, während sie nach vorn auf den Weg strahlt. Ich kann zwar nicht die Helligkeitsstufen oder die jeweilige Haltbarkeit der Batterie messen (dazu fehlt mir Zeit und Ausrüstung), aber es gibt deutlich voneinander unterscheidbare Helligkeitsstufen, bei der die kleinste für die 3m vor den eigenen Füßen reicht, um in der Dunkelheit nach Hause gehen zu können, und die hellste, um meine Küche lesetauglich zu erhellen (beides bei völliger Dunkelheit). Der Schalter ist gut und kennt zwei "Drückmethoden", nämlich einmal ein leichtes oder "oberflächliches" Drücken, womit die Leuchtstärken durchgeschaltet werden, und einmal ein festes Drücken, womit man zwischen An und Aus wechselt. Der Kraftunterschied dafür ist klar und deutlich, somit ist der Knopf gut zu bedienen. Also alles in allem eine solide und funktionsreiche Lampe (in meinem Fall fürs sog. "EDC"), die man immer dabei hat, und die für erstaunlich kleines Geld zu haben ist.

I just received the Tool AA 2.0 flashlight and gave it a quick tryout. I am amazed at how small and lightweight it is, especially compared to my Fenix LD12. However, it makes the Fenix LD12 feel like a tactical flashlight, with thicker, sturdier construction that feels like you could run over it with a truck on a concrete drive and it would be ok. But the Fenix is substantially bigger and heavier in your hand, and if clipped on a hat visor tends to drag it down. Both flashlights use a single AA cell and have several brightness modes. Both the Fenix LD12 and the Tool AA 2.0 come with the clip oriented to open toward the front of the flashlight, fine for securing to a belt or strap but not useful for clipping to a hat visor. So you have to pop the clip off and reverse it in order to clip to a hat for headlamp use. [**** Revision: while the Fenix flashlight failed to put the clip groove in a perfect place for the reverse orientation, the Tool AA 2.0 provides a second groove to attach the clip so it is centered in the flashlight and balanced for visor use - nice design!. The Fenix, on the other hand, ends up with the clip on the back end, causing most of the length and weight of the flashlight to be in front of the clip and thus an imbalance when clipped to a visor with the light extending further than desired in front of the visor. Another great light for visor-clipping is my old NEBO NU11K flashlight (AA battery) - it also has a glow-in-dark sleeve and a glow-in-dark end switch button. But it lacks fancy power management -- only one level of brightness, on or off, not super bright. A great camping companion though, and simplicity is a blessing in a pressure situation. *** end of revision.] I do like the Tool AA 2.0. It has a lot of utility in a very compact, lightweight package. I am a little ambivalent about how gentle a touch it takes to cycle through the modes, just a light tap on the end button (or you can uses twisting of the lamp cylinder part, probably not intuitive for me). I feel it is a little too easy to bump it into a different mode. It does seem to retain the last mode that I select when turning back on, but the instructions say you have to wait a few seconds after turning off for the memory to retain. I found that if I'm having trouble getting it to retain the last mode, holding down the rear button for a couple of seconds instead of a quick click when turning it on seems to help. Using an alkaline AA battery, the brightness modes seem good and useful, though the top two levels seem the same (I think the highest level requires the higher voltage lithium battery). I agree with someone else that an even dimmer mode would be useful for when you want to be most stealthy or just make out something to read without disturbing others. The Tool AA 2.0 beam is quite a bit broader than the Fenix or Nebo lights, which have more center-weighted spot beams. The Tool beam is nicely uniform across its circle of light, making a very useful illumination area for close working or in a tent. For outdoor use, the Fenix or Nebo may be more useful for targeting objects at a distance, such as animals, or for searching inaccessible locations, at a given brightness level. However, at max brightness, the Tool, especially with the higher voltage lithium batteries, would probably compensate for its wider beam and hold its own. A very good feature is that the battery cylinder unscrews from both ends (the lamp can come off and the end button can come off). This is important if a battery corrodes and swells and jams in the barrel. You have a chance of ramming it free. I had another cheapo light, about the same size but dumbed down, which only unscrewed from the lamp end. The battery jammed and I never got it out. So, I think it's a good light, at an okay price. Not quite cheap enough to buy a bunch and put them everywhere I want, though.

Es portable, alimentada por pila AA, 650lumenes, puedes guardarla perfectamente en el pantalón, con las llaves. Si buscas por la red encontrareis revisiones de todo tipo, por el precio que tiene, y la facilidad de usar pilas comunes, es un básico para el día a día.

Received in good condition. Pocket sized, as advertised and light is very bright. Recommended!
