NEBO Slyde King Flashlight

I recently purchased a second Slyde King 2k, and it is definitely one of, if not the best flashlight I've ever owned. It's puts out a true 2000 lumens of light, which is more than enough for anyone's day-to-day practical needs. The focus from wide but well-defined flood, to precise and focused spot light is impressive. Then throw in the awesome 500 lumen work light feature, and you have one incredibly versatile light. The slide feature for the work light is smooth, with just the right amount of tension so that it will never accidentally slide out and activate. And I love the red light function. It's perfect for times when you want to preserve your night vision, like getting around the campsite or tent when you're camping. I've used the flashing red light feature several times in place of flares when putting snow chains on in Washington's mountain passes, which is one of the main reasons I purchased the second one - to have both a safety/warning light and magnetic work light (which attaches perfectly inside the wheel well of my car), making putting the chains on at night so safe and easy.I purchased my first Slyde King about 2 years ago, and have used it almost daily at work where i frequently need to access a very busy truck/trailer yard at night, with lots of big rigs constantly moving about. There's defintely no chance that the truck drivers won't see me out there. After two years of continual use, the battery is showing no signs of losing potency.Overall, the Slyde King 2000 is a versatile, top-quality multi-purpose light at a bargain basement price, and I highly recommend it.

Excellent product! Excellent customer service too. The little plastic disc that covers the battery got stuck and the service rep that answered was super helpful and super nice.The flashlight charges fast and has an impressively bright light. The slide function is awesome when used as a work light. The magnetic end is endlessly useful. I love the additional feature of a red light on the slide light.We had the older version of this light and sadly lost it. Absolutely love the upgrades on this version. It’s tough, it’s hefty but not heavy, the size is convenient but not too small. I will probably get another one.

Overall this is a great flashlight. It's VERY bright, maybe even too bright for indoor use or close distances but the brightness is adjustable and it remembers the setting. I like the standard USB-C charging, but charging is on the slower side taking several hours to fully charge. I don't expect any need to replace the battery any time soon, which is good because it seems to be a VERY oddball battery and I could only find one vendor carrying that style online. But that is offset by the unique cob light in the sliding handle - combined with the strong magnet at the end it turns into a worklight with a quick pull. Battery life seems reasonable - in fairness I haven't needed to use it for hours on end and have not run out of charge yet.It does have a few quirks - the variable brightness is great and you can have it turn on to that preset by double-clicking the power button. A regular single click turns it on to full brightness, which as I mentioned is just crazy bright. I wish it defaulted to the preset brightness and took a double-click to go to full if you wanted. It also seems to take longer to charge than I expected.I keep this as more of an emergency flashlight and for that purpose it works very well. It's very well built and as a result a bit on the heavy side, so I'm not sure I would use it as a daily carry. But I have full confidence it will be working when I need it, so that has value to me.

I’ve ordered over 10 of these and love to give them as gifts. They are super bright, hold charge a long time, and easy to recharge. I usually use it extended in the wide mode to light up a whole work area. Sometimes the focused bean is almost too bright.The strong magnet on the end is convenient for freeing up your hands in there’s something magnetic to attach to.The red light is great when you’re doing things outside at night and don’t want to lose your night vision. We use it when walking around the campground - still plenty of light to see where you’re going but you aren’t bothering other people by lighting up their sites (wish more people would use this…)
