I have this lamp after some tests read acquired. She had good values in terms of lux and lumen. You actual lumen number is far below what is being touted here. That should be clear to all. Since there is no uniform standard for Lumen, many also measure in different ways. The lighting range of the lamp is about 300 m. So the range up to 300 m is very well lit definitely. So it is bright and has a nice even light.
Another Plupunkt is the supplied brackets for the belt. So you can take super the lamp. I use them when Lightpainting and because it's good when you have at your fingertips. And when my times comes an inclined, I can then strike with it: D and besides she also has a flashlight and an SOS function. And you can reduce the brightness to save battery, which is also very good. I have taken the way with almost empty batteries for the first time in operation and it does not consume a lot of battery. She has thus still quite a long way and shone still quite bright. With fully charged batteries the light was better.
Disadvantage of the lamp is that you can operate only with batteries. Here one must, however, take care, that you buy the right battery. The size of 18650 are industrial batteries. These are not optimally aligned to the end consumer. One should in any case, so be sure to buy absolutely trademarks batteries and a decent charger! As it should be noted that it significantly raises the price of the flashlight. Because matching batteries (of which one yes min. 3 pcs. Required) incl. Charger cost almost twice the price of this flashlight!
Pity is that the "on / off switch" is back on the air. The programs are selected by lightly pressing this button. As you can waste very quickly and push too hard. Therefore, the handling is not so great.
But since the price-quality ratio is overall consistency, I give full marks anyway :)
In summary:
Pro:
- Good luminosity
- Incl. Holder
- Several light programs (dimmable (1 stage), Flashlight, SOS)
- Usable for Self
- Shortened
Cons:
- Operation with 18650 batteries (batteries not possible)
- Not focusing possible
- Handling could be better
