GearBest Giveaway for the suggestions brainstorming for the Unique features of the flashlight( winner out)

Nice idea, wonder what it will become.

(triple?)XP-L HI relatively small thrower with max current rating of ~6Amp, thermally regulated, sublumen moonmode and beacon mode. Add a USB charging port, that can also be used as a backup USB charging port. To charge your cellphone for instance. With voltage indicator in any form and waterproof.

A good quality, fairly inexpensive 18650-based “zoomie”, that is, a good quality flood at one end and a good quality thrower/search light at the other end. It can be single-mode as it’s meant to be a single piece/multiple function outside nighttime flashlight that can transition from up-close needs to “what’s-going-on-way-over-there?”.

Something that either throws 1000 m or output over 4000 lumen, thank you! :smiley:

1. Zoomie
2. Infinitely variable brightness, including moonlight mode
3. Cheap, but must be using CREE or Nichia, and NOT Lattice Bright LED

Glow in the dark portion of the body option that can be turned on/off. Doesn’t have to be too bright just bright enough to find the flashlight at night.

Tiny 18650 flashlights with the option to convert into headlamp if needed

First recommendation:
Any budget light that does NOT have a LatticeBright emitter! These junk LEDs have become the bane of the budget flashlight world.

Second recommendation:
~$10-$15
Single-AA/14500 operation
Smooth body but with good knurling
No crenelations or sharp edges
Quality anodizing, possibly in an array of colors
Deep-Carry pocket-clip
Genuine Cree XP-G2 emitter (my personal preference is for cooler tint)
Light-OP reflector
Regulated Three-mode Lo-Mid-High no-strobe/SOS driver
Tailcap clicky.

Please!!

Micro usb rechargeable flashlight… preferably using 2x or 4x AA NiMh batteries

moonlight mode… 1lumen… 10 lumen… 100 lumen… 300 lumen… 600 lumen… And turbo mode of at least 900 lumen

OR infinte variable brightness

Well regulated, high efficiency electronics, durable body…

Access to both moonlight mode and Turbo mode from the off state of the flashlight! big one for me…

Ramping mode (from moon to high) with memory from side switch, tail switch for on off in tactical holding.

Copper mcpcb, integrated shelf thick enough to handle heat, direct driven xp-l Hi with a primary clicky switch in the rear and a secondary momentary switch for changing the 4 modes from moonlight to turbo with a hidden strobe mode.

- omnivore: usable with 1*26650 and 1*18650 and 3*AA in series, so it comes with two sleeves and one adapter

- possibility of extension tube for 1*26650 or 1*18650 for extra runtime

- zoomable with aspheric lens + possible TIR collimator

- infinitely variable brightness going all the way down to moon

- temperature controlled ramping on turbo

- hidden menu for strobe, beacon and SOS

- backlit buttons (on/off switchable)

- a keyfinder like locator function with bluetooth connection to smartphone

  • and for the ladies: silicone tube covers with a lot of fashionable colors (also nice for guys who hate cold and slippery aluminum tubes)

Personally I have little use for any flashing options in most of my lights, I just want high, medium, and low settings. I’m on the copper mcpcb bandwagon.

a cheap decent floody headlamp

I think there is interest in a soup can light with heat sinking built in and a xpl hi triple or nichia 219 b or c. Especially in some new colors.

Triple xp-l 1x18650 with thermal control

if XP-L Hi or XM-L2
-moonlight mode
-hidden blinking mod or on
-side switch

if XHP
-temperature control
-hidden blinking mod or on
-hi output

More options for lights to have XP-L HI and more options for modes. For me this would be the option to eliminate next-mode memory.

A budget single AA/14500 “L shape” headlamp. Something like Skilhunt H15 but lighter and cheaper. There are not many lights like that.

Low mode of 1-lumen or less. Hidden Strobe and/or SOS modes. Genuine Cree LEDs on Direct Thermal Path boards. Temperature controlled Turbo.
