BEST Keychain Light for EDC, Period!

 

I used to love my Thrunite Ti3, and I still do, but this Lumintop Tool AAA is just too stunning, I need to make a post about it and tell you guys to get one! First off, it's a mini TACTICAL LIGHT, using just one AAA battery and output to about 120 lumens of light, with a clicky tailcap! The package also comes with a magnetic tailcap too, which is also great for those who likes to stick it around, fridge, car, doors, etc... what we need is just a nice tiny diffuser and I think the light is the best package in the market so far for a keychain light. You can't go wrong, this is really amazing!  The 120 lumens might not seems a lot to you, but I have tested it and it is very legit, and is kind of about the same as my Thrunite Ti3. Before we dig into the review, you may purchase one from the links below. I am including a few links s you can see which place give you the best deal, and sometimes if no one is doing a big sales, you can use my discount code at gearbest too!

Best battery recommended - Eneloop PRO AAA 

DO NOT use those big box stuff like duracell, panasonic, energizers etc. Those rechargeables never last as long and love to self-drain all the time. I only like Sanyo and Eneloop PRO these days for a good solid reason, trust the experienced guy!

Here goes the tailcap clicky, you can change modes easily by semi-clicking the button or what I used to call it"bouncing" the button. Three modes only, but very practical and useful. I like how Thrunite has more modes and a strobe, but I think the 3 modes on this lumintop tool AAA is fine and very practical. Actually, less is better sometimes, when we use it for real purposes. Sometimes more modes is just hard to choose and navigate through the cycle.

 

 

You can just easily change the tailcap out with the magnetic tailcap and there goes the sticky instead of clicky. I like both, and I choose the magnetic over the clicky if I am using it for my EDC, because I like things that sticks!  Keep in mind that the magnet is pretty good, you can stick it to your car and use it to help you do repairs and maintenance while it shines down. Good stuff! 

 

Orange peel reflector, very smooth beam, but let me tell ya, this light does have some decent throw power for a keychain light. See my video review at the end, it's amazing and stunning to see an AAA light giving out that much light!

 

 

Light's on! Party time!

 

 

There is also a glow in the dark o-ring there, which is a nice touch and very helpful in the dark when you just need that ring to help you find the light. I personally like this and I would like to have a glow in the dark reflector too, why no one does that? The glow in the dark reflector mod will give the light a warmer tone too, I wish people will start doing that! 

 

Here is my Sanyo AAA. I tried duracell and is sick and tired of it, they just love to self-drain over time. Sanyo and Eneloop PRO is the best. The light comes apart in 3 sections just like a normal tactical light, which is a great idea if you want to train your baby or kid to play with tactical light style lights. Give them a click and one TD16 for daddy, lol!

 

 

I was trying to take a picture to show you how useful the light is with the magnetic tailcap but somehow it doesn't work out too well eh?

 

 

Well you can read the paper here at least... but not too convinced? No problem.

 

 

What did I do? now this is impressive! 

 

Can you see me here?

 

 

That's right, you can reverse the clip and clip the light to your cap!  The light is so light weight and small, which does not put any weight on your cap too. You can totally just walk around like this and feel very natural. If you dislike the little metal chain you can just take it off or put the light on the top side of the beak so you don't have this thing hanging down your face. Swcheeet! 

The lumintop tool AAA has been super impressive. The more I use it, the more I like it and feel happy with it. The flashlight has nice power and I like how you can interchange your preference with the tailcap depending on your mood of the day. It's so easy to change your setup, and if you are just tired of using the light as a light, you can always put the bulb part away and screw both ends together with one side clicky and one side sticky, then use the hollow tube in the center for putting a secret note or whatever you like inside and hang it on your neck lol!  I think it's a great pendant tube if you ever need one for whatever reason. Not forget that it sticks and it's slick!  Get one!

My video review on YouTube is always fun to watch!

 

   

Thanks for reading and watching, and I hope you will get one too. It's a super fun and powerful flashlight, and for less than 20 bucks, you can't go wrong. Stop buying those streamlight and maglite stuff, they are outdated junk today. It's time to embrace the new world of powerful flashlights, even a single AAA gets us 120 lumens, holy cow!

Klarus RS20, Best Flashlight for Walking in The Dark

 

The Klarus RS20 is one tough flashlight, because I have beaten it up very badly with my first one, smashed it against concrete wall and such to make sure it can withstand my abuse. Turn out the light is indeed tough enough for the job, but the side LED died or malfunction after those tests. I have got my replacement head from Klarus and it works great again. I would say that if you are using it as a flashlight and just dropping it by accident, it won't damage the light at all. I only did the job to kill the LED from REALLY smashing the light on concrete. Guess what, the light held up and the front LED is working fine. It's tough and it's definitely a life saving flashlight for any situation. I personally suggest this Klarus RS20 if you need a good flashlight for your night time walk.  Why?  Because it can shine both ways to make everything clear for you.  It's super practical and I love its side LED's brightness!  Before we dig into the review, you can buy the light here:

Buy Klarus RS20 from GearBest $67.14 - http://goo.gl/TPA2n7

The two buttons design is nice, and they are easy to use and understand by simple logic. Top button for the main light out the front, bottom button for the side LED. You cannot get it wrong in the dark, because one button is bright in color and one is black!  The light is all sealed up and waterproof, so you don't have to worry about anything getting into the light through those buttons, it's all good and safe.

 

 

Here is the front LED, 1050 lumens max, running on one 18650 inside the battery, which is included along with it's charging cable. One thing you want to know is how this charging port works!

 

 

This is the tail of the flashlight, and basically it's a magnetic surface that does not require any kind of flip, flop, open, but just SNAP that USB cable (provided in the package) on it and the light will start charging. This also ensure that the light is water proof and there is not silly rubber cover to deal with. 

 

High mode on the side LED is 440 lumens, very bright..! 

 

One more click, low mode, still very bright to be honest...!

 

 

These RGB is crazy, it's the brightest flood style RGB on the market I have seen. Klarus is not telling us that these are "bonus", they are ALSO your primary light bulb!

 

 

The green LED... 

 

The blue LED...! 

 

Here is the front shining out its 1050 lumens of light!

 

 

You can use both at the same time too, which is the main reason why I said this light is going to be great for walking at night. You can see both the front and the floor at the same time.

 

 

Mine comes with a Klarus 3400 mah battery. The battery is bi-directional, so you won't go wrong either way you put it in the light.

 

 

MEGA thick wall there...!

 

 

Here goes the light being charged. There is a red light under the USB charging port, and when the light is charged, it will turn green! This is amazing and quick, you really do not have to deal with any moisture in the air and risk getting your flashlight some annoying condensation in the head! 

After my new head arrived for the Klarus RS20, I noticed that all lights, especially the side lights, seems to be brighter than my first one. Maybe an update or something?  Anyway, get yours today, it's a great quality flashlight that will be a game changer for you if you walk at night all the time, or you just need a light for scouting around a building or any places at night. This light will make you smile!  Most important is, it comes with battery and everything you need (including a cool holster too). You are getting the light itself at like $50 and under!  Crazy deal!

Best Micro Flashlight, Super Deal - $20 Only!

 

JETBeam Mini-1 is on sales now for $19.99 only and you don't want to miss out this crazy good deal. Even without the sales discount, it's still a very decent light, and you can always get 8% discount using my code "GBLED2016" too. Buy Jetbeam Mini-1 here: http://goo.gl/cLLzTo

I will try to cut it short, but just so you know, this is a light that comes with a super complete package, and it's a great gift idea for yourself, your love one, or even your kids!  The light is very small, or microscopic I should say. Don't be fooled by its size, it's firing out 130 lumens of light!

 

The JETBeam Mini-1 is not like your normal keychain light, it's more like a pendant you can wear around your neck. The package comes with a chain too, but I find that the chain sometimes likes to eat my hair at the back, um...

 

 This is not a trashcan, it's the JETBeam Mini-1 upside down, with the head unscrewed, and there goes the protected and o-ring sealed USB charging port. The idea of putting the USB charging port there is just ingenious. You cannot believe how well everything is designed and put together!  The USB charging port allows you to plug the light to any micro USB port, such as the cable that you use to charge your phone, and it will start charging!

 

A better show of the head and chain, it actually do look good with the chain, maybe it's me who needs to shave my neck's hair and it will work...! 

 

There goes the USB in action, and a red light shows up when charging. The light turns to green when it's done charging. Usually it takes about 30mins to 1hr to fully get it charged up if your battery is really low. Sometimes just plug it in once a while and it will only take about 10-15mins to top up. If this is your EDC and you do use it from time to time, it's always a good idea to charge it once a week at least, just to be safe. If you do use it often, then of course charge it when you get home!

 

You can see the nice threading there, it's a well cut threading, and fits great, no wobble or any play when assembled together. Sturdy!

 

The whole package disassembled!  You get all these things in the box, and also a manual and some o-rings etc. But again, who cares about manual and such. This is what you actually take and use at the end. Good enough!  You can buy spare batteries for this light HERE and they are not expensive, given that they are all rechargeable.  The high mode of 130 lumens will last about 20mins, while the low mode of about 10 or so lumens will last you 6 to 7 hours, that's a full night of runtime!

 

Low mode, very bright to be honest, it doesn't look like 10 lumens to me, but more.

 

 High mode, 130 lumens, and I can compare this to my Thrunite Ti3 which is 120 lumens, and they look very similar to me.  Definitely legit!

As you can see the light is super small compared to my pen there. Great for ladies too!  If you want to see it in action, here are my YouTube reviews. As I said, so far, this is the BEST pendant light package on the market, because it comes with all the things you need and the light is very well built. You can just buy this and give it to your friend or love one, and they can use it right out of the box. The DQG series is nice, but it doesn't come with battery and charger, plus the packaging is cheap as crap. You want this JETBeam Mini-1 to impress people, and give them a full and joyful experience from the beginning to the end. This thing is legit, buy one!!!  I never feel so high about a small light, but this thing is definitely something you want to buy and put it on your neck all the time.



As you can see, for such a small light, outputting that much power is just insane. What's better is that if you are encountering any accidents or blackout, this light's low mode can guide you out the dark space even it will take you 5-6 hours to pull through. Not bad!  I will definitely use this as my EDC...!

Again,  "GBLED2016" for 8% discount if sales is over.

Convoy L6 Proved Itself is OKAY For Defense Use

The Convoy L6, 3800 lumens flashlight, has proven itself in my collection list. After smashing up soup cans and doing some abuse with it, I would say that this light is definitely built strong enough for clubbing and fighting. IF you want a strong,, powerful, bright AND tough flashlight for home defense, I strongly recommend this. The light uses 26650 batteries, and it si best to buy button tops and protected 26650 cells. The ones I got isn't the best, but they worked to provide me the power I need. I hope my new ones will arrive soon!
