My impression: an interesting look/design (that’s starting to grow on me).

mapache · 2016-10-11T00:27:51.000Z

My first impression is that the specs look good but it’s a shame that it has glued/sealed threads.

Bort · 2016-10-11T00:34:35.000Z

The side switch looks nice

piasca · 2016-10-11T01:33:05.000Z

Looks nice with a good charging solution.

Blades · 2016-10-11T02:03:21.000Z

I like the design, but think the clip should be more secure.

antiparanoico · 2016-10-11T02:20:29.000Z

I do not like the thread glued. :cry:

mikid · 2016-10-11T09:17:49.000Z

Unique look,great knurling.

bmwsancho · 2016-10-11T09:28:22.000Z

first impression:

looks like a very good light, none of my lights have an integrated charger so that is amazing.

t0d · 2016-10-11T20:26:31.000Z

unique knurling, sleek look

wle · 2016-10-11T20:41:57.000Z

impressions:
i like the wide light ranges
i like the switch
i like the knurling
internal charger and 1200 lumen max is nice

i would prefer it to be a lot smaller though, as it is, i have many lights that are great but too big for EDC
i would give up USB charging if it could be under 90mm long
why does it need a tail switch AND a side switch?
eliminating tail switch should make it shorter
also the beam pattern seems so floody that there is no point in the reflector cone being so long, could have made it SHORTER with a TIR optic

First impression: quite nice for first flashlight. I like USB charging feature and angled bar knurling style. Those straight knurling bars around side button are maybe a little to much. Hidden strobe modes are very good thing - I like having strobe modes but those should be hidden as they are not used often so should not get in the way.
There should be also deep pocket carry clip (could be optional accessory) so when put inside pocket it would not protrude.
Neutral emitter tint option would sell better.

MILSPEC · 2016-10-12T10:08:13.000Z

first impression:
charger is good, so travel is easier. no need to pack/carry additional cables or charger.

I would prefer a smaller size but it should be fine. prefer warmer tints.

meti · 2016-10-12T10:12:15.000Z

I like the knurling and availability of moonlight

cdjaney · 2016-10-12T15:20:44.000Z

First impression.

Distinctive look…hopefully the creative “knurling” results in good grip.
Like the flexibility…USB charging, brightness levels.

e10sno · 2016-10-12T15:58:01.000Z

it looks solid and good

selis · 2016-10-13T08:43:35.000Z

Nice look and interesting brightness modes. Also nice beam and throw from Dale’s review.

what’s your first impression of the GearBest Zanflare F1 flashlight

It look so slick and the output is massive good job!

bmwsancho · 2016-10-14T09:46:57.000Z

first impression is good, nice to have the inbuilt charging feature.

Vaping · 2016-10-14T09:50:21.000Z

impression is that it does appear big but still good for EDC?

Shuggarush · 2016-10-14T09:56:07.000Z

Slim, pocketable, side switch. direct micro usb charging capability. I’m always looking for a deep pocket carry 18650 side switch flashlight.
