USB Rechargeable Tactical LED Flashlight Torch, Zanflare F1 Flashlight with 7 Light Modes, IP68 Waterproof, Cree XP-L V6 1240 Lumen Super Bright Torch with Safety Hammer, 18650 Battery Not Included

Zanflare F1 Cree XP-L V6 1240 Lumen Super Bright Tactical LED Flashlight with Safety Hammer, IP68 Waterproof, USB Rechargeable, 7 Light Modes for Hiking, Camping, Emergency The flashlight arrived in a lovely white and black box and first impressions were good (it came with a 3 year warranty too).Upon opening the box I found that the following contents:Contents1 x Zanflare F1 Flashlight1 x Micro USB Cable1 x Collar Clip1 x Storage Pouch1 x Lanyard1 x Instruction ManualI took the flashlight from the box and when holding it in the hand it felt premium and solid with a heavy weight. It was made from a single piece of aluminium alloy and didn’t feel cheap and was waterproof. The bottom end of the flashlight had a rubber button and a tiny safety hammer for breaking glass in emergencies (see pic).Batteries were not included but it took 1 x 18650s or 2 x CR123 lithium cells of which I already own.There was an auxiliary mode button midway on the body of the flashlight. But to turn the light on or off you had to press the button on the end (tail). Since no battery was included I used a flat top 18650 battery (button top is best) which worked albeit temperamentally.The light started up in moonlight mode (low). The bulb used was a Cree XP-L V6 bulb which is a high end bulb. To change the light mode I pressed the mode button, which switched modes as follows:Moon light -> Low Brightness -> Medium Brightness -> High Brightness.In addition you can enter a turbo mode by double tapping the (mode) button and once in turbo mode it lasts for 30 seconds but be warned the torch head will get very hot before it automatically dims. In turbo mode it was very bright and amazing.It also has two strobe modes, which can be accessed by holding the mode button for 2 seconds they are: tactical strobe & SOS flashing (it remembers these modes after power off too which is nice).To charge it I was puzzled at first as to where the micro USB port was (as seen in the pictures) but after a bit of twisting, I uncovered it just below the flashlights head (hidden behind a screw body). It had an LED indicator which lit up GREEN or RED for charging (RED) or not (GREEN).This flashlight was one of the best I have used because it was built beautifully and felt premium in the hand. It came with many accessories and had many features such as: 7 lighting modes, USB charging and was waterproof. It is so light and portable that it has become my favourite every day carry torch (plus it comes with a 3 year warranty). Highly recommended.I’ve included various pictures. Thanks for taking the time to read my review.

Only owned for a week but brilliant experience so far (forgive the pun!). Came well packaged. It was very clear on the site that batteries not included so no points deducted - it also meant I had the choice to buy premium batteries. Supplied with lanyard, belt hook and zip pouch so all possibilities covered. Torch looks really well made, reassuringly chunky and grippy to hold even though it is really compact and light weight. The beam is bright and far reaching. Moonlight mode is excellent for walking in unlit areas where you don't want to completely ruin your night vision. It is weather proof and comed with spare seals. So far a clear 5 stars.

Nice torch does not come supplied with battery though.Do get a nice holster to kept it in and comes in a nice presentation box.

Really nice torch and good output of light. Now stopped charging so can’t say it’s that great now

Will update this if longevity is not up to scratch.I paid the full price for it with my own money and didn't have my review 'bought' in any way.Only recently received but the build of this torch indicates quality and attention to detail.When I first used the twighlight mode it was during the day and at first didn't think the torch was on.Won't be appreciated until late evening when it is exactly right to find your way without losing your night vision.Throws out a very solid beam to let you locate features further away when making your way at night.Not much else to say, I'm a bit fussy about torches and almost didn't buy this because I didn't recognise the brand.Seeing Zanflare on a torch would now be a positive consideration in my buying decision.

An excellent flashlight for everyday use. Fits nicely in a jacket pocket and is strong enough for the bangs and abuse of hard work. Easy to remember the control sequences also. I'm up in the North, so all weather use and temperature tolerances are very important. This one fits the bill all round

Great torch. Nice size. Really bright. Easy to charge. I have 2 of the 6000k versions. The first one was excellent and the 2nd was on offer. I use one attached to my bike helmet as my main off road light.

Not had it for long, but so far I like it. Fits in my jacket pocket, seems very sturdy and has several brightness modes.
