ThruNiteW1 Max 693 Lumens EDC Flashlight with Magnetic Tailcap, Rechargeable Mini LED Pocket Flashlights (Black, Cool White)

This is a good light so far. I’ve bought 8 of them for family members and everyone likes them. Small easy to use, same size as my thumb. It a lot of light for a small flashlight. It’s not going to last long on super bright mode maybe 5 mins then drops to lesser modes automatically. I normally keep my light on the mid range setting and adjust as needed.

I charge the W1 right out of the box then used it for 10 days before my next charge, I like the mode spacing I find myself using the 2nd mode the most which is 58 lumens, but on the higher modes this will light up your back yard with a nice hotspot and a big spill of light which is excellent for walking thru a dark path or alley. I also like the moonlight mode and has a lockout mode for when you want to put this in your pocket, the head for this torch get a little warm on the highest mode but doesn’t get hot.

I own a lot of flashlights. From AAA, to AA, to 16340, to 18350, to 1860, etc. All from reputable brand companies, and would be considered “budget flashlights” in the flashlight community. Out of all of the flashlights that I own, the Thrunite W1 ticks all the boxes for me when it comes to a very bright ( when you need it to be ) and reliable edc flashlight. Also…the UI is simple, the high CRI tint of the led itself is great, and the runtimes are very good compared to many other “edc” flashlights. If I could only keep one flashlight to carry every day, the W1 would be my choice. I highly recommend buying this light.

ThruNite has become my favorite brand, but this is a dog. If you buy this stray get out your pooper-scooper. I can’t believe the same company that produces the Archer Series produces this dud. Click the on-off switch and you’ll hear yourself say…”is it on…that’s turbo…?”

I own multiple lights from pretty much every maker. This is my new favorite edc light. It has really great throw and it lasts forever. My old edc was a s1r2 batton and this is actually smaller in size and in my opinion better output. It does not have the large hotspot that the olight does but it’s still decent. Where it shines is the throw and the battery life. I also like that it does not need a special charger or require a proprietary cell. For the price it really can’t be beat.
