Looking for a 18650 Pocket Torch

I saw this and purchased it as a gift for my father considering father’s day coming. It’s not blindingly bright but it is significantly brighter than a typical flashlight and by turning the end, you can concentrate the intensity of the bean to a wide or a narrow area. Probably the best flashlight I’ve ever owned and the compact size and weight make it convenient to take in the car, on camping trips, or around the house. it will be your favourite?

2200LM CREE XM-L T6 Mini Flashlight

This is what we call a SK98 clone
And they are bright, though 2200lumens should be read as “ESL” (exaggerated Chinese lumens)
The cell and charger can be a serious risk to use.
Read up on li ion safety 101 first and consider getting a good charger and cell.

I could be wrong here but, looks like click bait to me………lol

Member since 2011 and 6 post , the title leads you to think he is LOOKING for a pocket torch , yet he says he has purchased it for his father already.

And if it is the best flashlight he has ever owned then………… well I will leave it at that.

^ my thought also

Me too and whether it is meant for sales or genuine advice, course of action is the same, so debunk and good search terms given :wink:

So he’s bought it for his father, but he’s also keeping it for himself to use round the house and camping etc

Why do these people come on here to try and flog crap
Obviously not bright enough to work out that being as this is a dedicated torch forum members would know a thing or too about torches :person_facepalming:

He’s from “America” — that’s a city in southwest China, right? Sometimes I wish we could see the IP addresses used …

Also selling a $2 SK68 clone for $2.98 at For Sale:Q5 Focus Zoomable 14500 LED Torch Flashlight

Maybe …but the two sellers on DD4 are different ..the site is like a conglomeate of sellers? ..sorta like a mini ali express ?? or a baby ebay ?

that said.. it does smack of spam . considering the threads sk68 ’s are posted in the “for sale section” of the forum . A place spammers mistakenly add links .

The only good thing it accomplished for me was the ability to look at the Jacob A-60’s we bought here years ago that DD4 has yet to purge from their site …remembering that deal makes the click worth clicking

No. America is a village (2013: pop. 2,085) in the province of Limburg in the Netherlands.
Or. Amerika is a hamlet (population: a handful) in the province of Drenthe in the Netherlands.

And there’s Amerika as imagined by Franz Kafka:
