Challenge: most ridiculous advertised lumens (current record 99.9 trillion lumens)

:laughing: :laughing: The only thing this is missing is the landing gear :laughing: Free with optical viewing sights :laughing:

:laughing: :laughing:

And people still get scammed buying the $700 100 000 lumens Imalent MS18 while they could have had the same output with a 19$ dollar flashlight… very sad

After having seen the reviews of these items… it is shocking how little average consumers know about lumens, flashlights, or technology at all. Most of the reviews are positive! They really believe they had a deal here…. omg

Yeah, if you’re only used to incandescent lights and lights on phones then these cheap zoomies are going to seem very impressive. I think they actually throw a couple of hundred meters when zoomed out (before the switch fails).

I just found a X800 clone on AliExpress for £3.50 ($4.50) with free shipping. I’ve just ordered it and will put it to the test when it arrives.

Found one to beat 9 million lumens:

Here it is folks, the Eighty million lumen flashlight

This new LED technology is as bright as 800 Imalent MS18 flashlights combined.

(Actual lumens about 200, if you’re lucky, so 400,000 times increase)

Eighty Million Lumens ?!?

:laughing: :laughing: :+1:

Plus, it regrows hair!

Well, at least your eyebrows…

Unfortunately it’s sold out .
Don’t worry, the next batch will be 100 million lumens !!!? :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:

This should be a really good one, 4 stars after 323 reviews.

A 999900000LM Zoomie…

Hmmm, they couldn’t squeak out that 1 extra lumen, eh?

Looks like the record has been broken by an order of magnitude or 2.

Over 999 million lumens!

Ok, according to random person on the internet’s math there are 17.5 million trillion lumens that hit the earth from the sun.

(There’s many times more lumens that fly off into space, so the sun isn’t very efficient and could do with a reflector or TIR for better run time. There’s also no lumens at night.)

Compared to the world’s brightest flashlight (officially 999 million lumens according to this thread),
17.5 million trillion lumens from the sun is still 57 million times brighter!

Maybe in a few years LED technology advertising will advance and we’ll have flashlights brighter than the sun.

Edit: I wonder if these flashlights emit more lumens than the amount that hit the earth reflected off a full moon.

Hilarious.

reminds me of the moron lamp at hazard fraught tools.

That would be a scam!

I’ve yet to find 12,000 mAh 18650’s, but I did find 10,000 mAh ones :slight_smile:

3.Use 8 high-quality 18650 cells

I wonder how many lumens a space shuttle launch was. They were very bright at night.
