Features

• BLUE AND INTELLIGENT ILLUMINATION
  The enhanced high-lumen LED technology in the S1050 enables brightness and clarity that are significantly more than those of a typical flashlight. You may throw a blazing wide beam with its wide-to-narrow beam zoom to light your path in front of you or zoom in to illuminate objects hundreds of feet away with a daytime white color.

• PERMANENT EFFICIENCY
  The S1050 is simply fueled for hours with your choice of 3 AAA batteries or a single 18650 cell thanks to its versatile battery options (batteries not included). You can rely on this light to be with you throughout those lengthy walks and camping vacations because it has a run duration of 10 hours when used on the low setting.

• MADE TO LAST
  This flashlight was designed to withstand drops of up to 10 feet and is made entirely of metal, making it almost impenetrable from impact and shock. You may use the S1050 with confidence in the rain, snow, or during natural disasters because it is built with a water-resistant construction to withstand any weather situation.

• FOR ANY SITUATION, PERFECT
  Other flashlights just cannot match the ease and power of the newly updated S1050. The S1050 is an excellent all-purpose torch for around the house, dog walking, camping, and emergencies since it has 3 practical lighting modes (High|Low|Strobe).

• EXTRAORDINARY VALUE
  You get two torches with unmatched quality and lifespan for the price of one.

Depending on the power draw, LED flashlight batteries can last 1.5 to 7 hours on high and up to 50 hours on low.

How long do tactical flashlights last?****

As a tactical flashlight is designed for use by law enforcement, it should therefore be able to make it through a long 12-hour shift or longer without going out of battery. If it does run out of battery, it should be able to be recharged. Thus, long run-time and an option to recharge are paramount.

Your flashlight should be no bigger than the size of your palm. At least 120 lumens of light output. For a flashlight to be an effective self-defense tool, it needs to be bright enough to disorient attackers. Anything less than 120 lumens just won’t get the job done

Can you carry a tactical flashlight?****

Because they are not explicitly weapons and are just a variation of a standard LED flashlight, tactical flashlights are legal to use and carry. So you won’t be raising any alarm by carrying your tactical flashlight with you.

Why do tactical flashlights have strobe?****

Strobe function in LED lights is useful in tactical situations to temporarily blind your attacker thus giving you ample time to escape or further attack them. It is also useful for urgently signaling attention
