Jetbeam Mini One to me is a wonderful flashlight. I would consider it perfect if the lamp is powered by a battery with a capacity of 240mAh or higher.
At $ 25, there’s probably no better option. You have 3 LEDs with 5 lights in 1 beautiful design.
5 lights: white light (500 lumens), red, green, blue, and UV for most everyday tasks. Lots of usage modes. Hopefully you will choose a flashlight that suits your needs.

On Amazon.com it is 40$USD then it is normal that the price for Canada is more if you add the money conversion, and custom fee.
On Battery Junction it is 22.49$USD but with no free shipping at all. If you add shipping fees and the money conversion in Canadian dollars it is more than 50$CAD.
On BG it is 35$CAD including shipping, it seems to be for me the best place for ordering another one as a gift for a friend.
Received mine a couple of days ago. Perfect keychain light, very bright. Only thing missing is a lockout function. Had it go on 2 times in my pocket within 1 week….
I find this info on Internet, I give you a copy & paste of it below, try it and tell us if it works :
New! There's a lockout function for the Mini One such that it wouldn't accidentally turn on in your pocket or keychain
Lockout: With the light on, press the Power button three times to turn on the UV light and hold the power button until the light flashes twice and then goes off.
Unlock: In Lock mode, press and hold the power buttons for five seconds to turn on the light.
I find this info here >>> https://www.fstoplights.com/jetbeam-mini-one-500-lumens-usb-c-rechargeable-keychain-light-with-red-green-blue-and-uv-output/
I never bothered to search this, thanks for the info!
And guess what? It works! Now I am even more happy with this light!
It is a bit cumbersome and it does work a little bit different on mine. The UV light flashes 3 times. Also, the light does not need to be on. So once you go into the UV light mode, hold the power button until the UV light flashes 3 times. Now it is locked. Unlocking is as described.
I do have it locked now and am going to see if this lockout is sufficient for me.
Great find!
I also had the light turn on when i tried to carry it daily and sort of let it down because of that.
Now this undocumented lockout - although somewhat cumbersome, is a game changer indeed. :+1:
PS: on mine it works from off too. Click three times to UV mode, then press and hold switch until it blinks three times.
I got mine at Battery Junction for $18.99, did get the free shipping because I had to order some 40T’s anyway.
Not the titanium model but this one glows. Very slick light.
Anyone have experience with these on how many charge/discharge cycles the battery will take
before you end up with a dead light?
Also, just curious, even though it’s a non-user replaceable battery, has anyone tried to disassemble
one of these to replace the worn out battery?
120mAh battery? Ugh. No thanks. This originally came out in 2020 and the competition for this form factor (primary emitter, side LEDs) offers 300mAh and higher batteries. Jetbeam is very slow to upgrade their flashlights. The Jet-U has been out for over 6 years now and they still use the same cold emitter.
