5.0 out of 5 stars Powerful Super Bright Torch
I liked this torch from HOTO.It has a qaulity look and feel to it with it's satin aluminium finish.It's not too big or heavy, it will fit into my coat pocket or with its strong wire clip with rubber grip i can carry it on my belt.With a press of the on/off button the torch lights up on it's lowest brightness setting which is suitable for most tasks.Press it again for a higher level of illumination and once more for full brilliance.On the highest setting this torch is exceedingly bright and it will light up the surrounding area to a high level.There is another button on the base of the torch that operates the tactical features.Press it lightly and it lights up immediately on full brightness,a slightly harder press strobes this light and it can be used effectively as a means of self defence or to attract attention if in distress.The light goes out the instant the button is released.I will say at this point that i don't think this torch is suitable for use by children unless perhaps supervised due to it's high level of brightness and strobing feature.The torch comes with a short usb A to type C lead to charge the fitted battery supplied and alternatively it has the ability to be powered by two non rechargeable batteries of type CR123A (not supplied) that fit into a holder that is inserted into the torch should the rechargeable one run down during use.When being powered this way the torch works at a reduced brightness level.When charging the on switch lights up and fades continuously until charging is complete,a feature the manufacturer calls a breathing effect.When fully charged the light stays on for 20 seconds then goes off.When using the torch battery level is indicated at 30% by the indicator light white and on,below 30% it turns red and at 10% it flashes red so I will know when it requires recharging.I think this is a powerful, well designed and engineered torch of qaulity construction perfect for anyone who wants one that is a not too big but is still powerful,and I think the tactical features are a great additional feature that would be extremely useful in an emergency.I am happy to recommend it.
4.0 out of 5 stars Bright, tactical flashlight
Great build quality, light weight yet solid.Extremely bright and the tactical aspects work really well with the strobe effect being extremely effective.Really nice build quality in aluminium, good waterproofing and with a decent charge time and runtime. The inclusion of a USB-C charging port allows for convenient recharging.It includes a clip for easy attachment to belts or bags etc, increasing portability and accessibility. The overall design is compact and ergonomic, making it easy to handle.Multiple modes mean more versatility in different situations you may find yourself in. Feels robust, and it performs well even in adverse conditions. Just slightly hot on the price side.
Sólida linterna, luz muy potente y brillante
La intensidad de la luz es destacable, las opciones para recargar y usar baterías desechables es muy práctica.
Bright and sturdy
This rechargeable flashlight is really well built. It's got a nice weight in your hand and feels solid. The 3 brightness settings are great ond it's very bright on the max setting.The button on the back activates a strobe feature when you hold it down, which has some uses. It's not a feature I'll use often, but it does work well!
Erwartungen wurden erfüllt
Ich habe mir die Taktische Taschenlampe von HOTO für Nachtwanderungen mit den Kindern bestellt. Sie ist von der Optik und Haptik her Klasse.Die Bedienung ist einfach und selbsterklärend. Sie hat einen Schalter an der Seite für die normale Bedienung und einen Schalter an der Unterseite, mit dem man die Taktischen Modi schalten kann.Sie liegt gut in der Hand und für ihre Größe hat sie eine sehr gute Lichtausbeute, sie leuchtet alles schön gleichmäßig hell aus. Ihre Leuchtdauer ist abhängig von der eingestellten Stufe und kann bis zu 15 Stunden betragen.Von der Verarbeitung her kann ich nichts beanstanden. Es sind keine scharfen Kanten oder Grate dran. Die Oberfläche ist sauber eloxiert.Fazit: Gute Taschenlampe, die man überallhin mitnehmen kann, weil sie klein, extrem hell, robust und wasserdicht ist.
Good Light - A Little Larger Than Expected
No photos with this review. This is a good flashlight. I keep it in the backpack I carry to the office every day because we have fairly frequent power outages in the municipality where I work and our facility's backup generator does not always work as expected. I like that the button the back of the cylinder can be used for quick steady or flickering light whereas to turn on the light and leave it on, there's a button closer to the light-bell. I dislike that the beam cannot be focused - the beam's just what it is, like an old-fashioned flashlight. I have had one problem with this light and it's that when I have it clipped to a loop inside my backpack and I throw the pack into the car or toss it into my office closet, that action has at least once depressed the power button near the light-bell and the light's stayed on for hours thereby depleting the rechargeable battery. Mercifully that didn't produce enough heat to burn the bag, though.Stout flashlight. My teenager says I'm "addicted to flashlights." With that in mind, I like this one. Four Stars not Five because of the minor dislike and minor problem noted above. Nevertheless, if I had spent money to buy this flashlight, I would have been satisfied with my purchase. Recommended.
Durable, Quality Build/Design, Defective Button Top Battery Made the Light Unusable Out of the Box
The media could not be loaded. The flashlight comes with a USB-C charging cable, CR123A spacer tube, 1 x 18650 Li-Ion battery with a button top & a user manual.High quality building using a durable all-aluminum design that looks very nice. It measures approx. 15cm (long) x 3.4cm (head diameter) x 2.8cm (body diameter) and weighs 184g with the battery and 135g without making it fairly compact and lightStrong removable belt clip that includes a rubber/silicone protective piece, so the clip doesn’t scrape on any hard surfaces when attached/removed.The end cap comes off and shows the dual O-rings to keep the light water resistant (it’s rated as IP68 waterproof). I found I would misalign the threads a lot when trying to screw the cap back on. I think it may be from the very fine threads and the double O-rings. I would have preferred larger threads as it would prevent misaligning and possibly screwing up the threads.The product description indicates that the light is zoomable, but I can confirm it is not. It uses a single LED module centered under what feels like a glass lens.There are 2 power on modes, button on the side or the quick press tactical button on the end cap. The tactical button allows the light to stay on as long as you’re holding the button and turns off as soon as you release. This eliminates the need to cycle through the mode before turning off the light. There may be situation where you need a quick hit of light at maximum lumens to disorient an intruder.Powering on the light using the standard side power button and it defaults to low. Subsequent presses go to medium, high & then off. There is no memory function and no option to press and hold the power button to turn off the light, so you have to cycle through the light modes to turn it off.The tactical button on the back is dual functioned. A shallow press & hold provides you maximum brightness, more than when in high mode. This is really meant for short bursts as it does drain power quickly and the flashlight gets warm. The second function is if you press all the way down and hold the button down (you can hear a defined click), this will enable a very disorienting strobe at Turbo brightness. Releasing the button at any point turns off the light.During the use of the tactical button and enabling Turbo mode, the light flashed a couple times and then turned off and would not turn back on. The side button wouldn’t function as well. I needed to unscrew the endcap and screw back on for the light to start working again. I original thought it was because the battery wasn’t charged, so I charged up the flashlight (side power button pulses white when charging and turns off when complete). After it was fully charged, I was able to get Turbo mode again. But again, after a couple uses (just a few seconds total), I noticed that the side power button LED was flashing red. According to the manual, this means that the battery is low. Not sure how that happened as I just charged the battery moments earlier. I removed the battery and placed it into my 18650 charger and found that the mR (milliohms of resistance) was at 107mR, which from my research, is very high and anything over 100 fully charged should be replaced. After running a full Nor Test on the battery, it is only capable of achieving 3.54V for a 3.7V battery which is why the flashlight indicates a problem with the battery. So, it looks like the included battery was not up to the quality of the flashlight itself. Unfortunately, this flashlight required an 18650 battery with a button top vs the bulk 18650 batteries I have, so I won’t be able to get a lot of Turbo mode brightness out of the flashlight. It does come with a spacer to allow you to use 2 x CR123A batteries, but this is not something most people would have available at home. A more common 3 x AAA adapter like most flashlights provide would have been better.I did find a couple 18650 batteries I got from Bolo that were rated as 3600mAh but had a flat top. I DIY’d the battery with a small round magnet that acted like a button. This allowed the flashlight to actually function, but unfortunately, either the DIY caused too much of a voltage loss or the flashlight just needs a specific battery to be used, but the Turbo mode was just as bright as the High mode, so it doesn’t hit the rated 2500lm.From the testing I was able to do before the battery errored out and with the DIY battery, I was able to test the different modes. Turning on the light using the side power button, it defaults to Low mode, Med, High & then off.The light pattern is it creates has a bright hotspot in the center with a light ring around the hotspot when up close. The hotspot is slightly malformed and not perfectly circular as I’d expect. The edges of the light ring also have notches as the flashlight housing as a mild striking bezel around the lens. Normally it’s a bit more aggressive, but this will work to protect the lens on drops and striking. Further away, the light almost turns into a flood providing a soft light that covers a lot of area.Switching modes provides gradual increase and not too abrupt. The colour temp of the light is yellowish but has a greenish tint to it, which is a bit weird. Medium still has a slight yellowish/greenish tint but has a brighter hotspot. On High, the center hotspot is yellowish/white, with a yellowish/greenish ring around the hotspot and the outer ring is cold-white, which is what you’d expect a cold white temp for the entire light pattern from an LED flashlight.Overall, a very good looking flashlight with a durable build. Good light output and convenient tactical button cap. Unfortunately, the light colour temp was a bit off-putting as I normally don’t see a greenish tint in any of my flashlight output. But the major item was the defective button top battery it came with. Button tops are less common than the bulk flat top batteries, which I have plenty of, but the flashlight is not designed to support these battery types, so specific batteries are needed. Or, 2 x CR123A batteries could have been used in the included spacer adapter, but these aren’t common to have in a household. A very easy way to make it compatible with any battery type is to have had a button or spring on the flashlight side and this would have made it universal. And, at the time of this review, a price of $109.99 plus a 15% off coupon is available, I would have expected more. It doesn’t matter how beautiful something looks if you can’t make it work properly out of the box. Definitely something HOTO needs to improve on. Would I buy this light again? My response would be no, I’d look for a much better light at this price.
