ThruNite TC15 V3 2403 High Lumen Flashlight, USB C Rechargeable LED Handheld Flashlights, Ultra-Bright XHP 35.2 LED, Indoor/Outdoor (Camping, Security and Emergency Use) Cool White - Black CW

I've had this light for about 3 months now and this is a nicely finished, compact, very bright light that you can charge at home, in your car, or from a portable power bank thanks to the built-in USB charging port. It accepts any protected or unprotected 18650 cell, button top or flat top. I strongly suggest using the battery that it comes with or any high quality Samsung, Panasonic, Sanyo, Sony, or LG 18650 battery, and buy it from a reputable dealer. The UI is very simple and extremely easy to learn. You have three choices of brightness at turn on. Press and hold for about 1-1.5 seconds and you get a true firefly/moonlight mode. Or one quick press and you get your last used mode from memory (low, medium, or high). Or double press and go straight to turbo mode. Once the light is on, all you have to do to cycle thru the levels of low, medium, and high, is just press and hold the button.The light is small and very bright, so it will get hot! This happens to all small, high power flashlights. There's no way around that. Well there is, but you have to go with a less powerful light or get a much larger light that can dissipate the heat that's generated.Now here's the but. My only complaint with this light is that it has no electronic lock out. So if you carry it in your pocket or put it in a carry bag, you have to, or at least should, slightly unscrew the tail cap to be safe from accidental turn on.A few things I forgot to mention. For this being considered a cool white led, it's got no hint of blueish tint to it at all. It could just be my sample, but I'd call it a bright natural white at around 5700k. In a side by side comparison, there's hardly any discernable difference between this led and the high CRI Nichia 219C 5700k led's in my Convoy S12. Even the color rendition is excellent. Also, just an added bonus, my Convoy S12 (21700 battery), my Astrolux EC01 (21700 battery) and MF01 Mini (26650 battery), my Sofirn SP31 and SP32, and my Wowtac A1S all fit in the holster that is supplied with this light. And it's also supplied with one of the largest lanyards I've ever received with a light. I don't use them, but you can easily get your hand through this one, even if you have large hands.

I absolutely love this flashlight. It's the perfect size for a tactical flashlight l, compact and light enough to carry all day. I haven't put it's battery to the test but it hasn't died on me yet. It feels very durable, but again I haven't run it over with a car or anything to see just how durable. It's easy to switch brightness and you don't have to cycle through every one just to turn it off like some other flashlights. Hold the button to change brightness, one click to turn it off and on at the same brightness. Double click for maximum brightness, triple click for strobe. Press and hold while off for firefly mode. The only this I dislike it one the highest brightness it heats up in seconds and after a minute it becomes very warm. Not hot, it doesn't burn my hand, just very warm. Like those electric hand warmers. Honestly it's nice in the winter.I highly recommend this flashlight, it's absolutely worth the price.

Great little flashlight. I love the brightness and size. It's very easy to use and very easy to switch between the many different modes. I already have many 18650 batteries and several battery chargers, but I love that I can just hookup a micro USB to charge it. I wish it was USB-C, but that's because my cell phones for the past 2+ years have been USB-C so I have many of those laying around (I still have plenty of micro USB cables because of many other things that still use micro USB like my bluetooth wireless headphones, etc).The one star reviews are from people that didn't take out the little piece of plastic that is between the anode (battery pin) and the battery terminal that probably was put there to prevent it from being turned on while in the box. The people that did not figure this out before they decided to post a 1 star review look a bit foolish to me. In my opinion, it makes those reviewers appear to lack a little bit of logic, reason and common sense. As soon as you plug in the charger (before removing the tiny piece of plastic between the anode and the terminal) the light will start blinking purple. That means "abnormal charging," and is stated in the instructions. As soon as I plugged in the charger and saw the blinking purple light I knew that it was charging abnormally because I read the instructions before I even plugged in the micro usb to begin charging. I quickly realized that something might be wrong with the battery, so I took out the battery and saw the small plastic circle between the anode and the light. So, I removed the little plastic circle and plugged in the micro USB again. Once plugged in, the light was red, notifying me that the battery was charging. Instantly, I felt foolish for not opening up and looking at the battery before I tried use it or to charge it. I can only imagine how foolish the reviewers that only gave this 1 star must feel. I guess that's why I always wait more than 10 minutes before I post a review on something... especially if something like the blinking purple led or the fact that the light works while plugged in (but only in 2 different modes/intensities), but it doesn't work when unplugged, would make me think that I am doing something wrong or that something specific needs to be done before it will work correctly. I certainly wouldn't give it 1 star without trying to figure out what the problem is or calling customer service or doing a quick internet search, etc first. I only write reviews after I've spent a few weeks using it first.
