ThruNite Archer 2A V3 LED Flashlight, High Lumens AA Flashlight, IPX8 Waterproof Dual Switch Bright Flashlight for Hiking Emergency Power Outage - Cool White

Compact LED Flashlight that uses AA batteries that are available everywhere! The dual switches allow easy to understand control of different light options. I was very pleased at the brightness this tiny flashlight offers. Great for walking the dog or camping.

This is a bright, solidly built flashlight. Small (the diameter is barely larger than the batteries) enough to go anywhere, but brighter than you would expect. Not the brightest ever, but maybe brightest for its size. I especially liked that the on/off switch is separate from the function buttons. Edit: I have a Nitecore flashlight that's brighter, but since this review I find myself grabbing this one again and again because of its small size and bright light.

Love the size on this one. Small enough to clip to a shirt pocket, toss in the glovebox, or carry around without noticing the weight, but it doesn't feel like a toy. The adjustable brightness is the real win here. The low setting is genuinely useful as a reading light, soft enough not to blast your eyes out in a dark room, and the high setting throws serious output when you actually need it. Runtime on the higher settings holds up well too, it doesn't dim down after a few minutes like some lights do. One thing I appreciate: no strobe function getting in the way. I know some people want that for tactical use, but for a light like this it's just an extra button press away from the mode you actually want. Glad they left it out, or at least didn't force it into the mode cycle. Overall this has become my go-to for small jobs around the house, glovebox emergencies, or just carrying in a pocket. Doesn't try to be more than it is, and does what it does well.

I had some trouble with this flashlight, first it would not stay on when the on button pad was pressed. Then a battery got stuck inside and could not be dislodged. I had not used it extensively or stored it in any kind of extreme conditions. I did like the size, weight, and strong light of the product (a NYT Wirecutter pick) and hoped to keep it, so I wrote to the company email ([email protected]) to see if I could get a discounted new one. A response came immediately saying that a replacement would be sent. A brand new flashlight arrived in two days! The communication was helpful and swift, and the new light is great. 5 stars for prompt and helpful service! They did say that batteries should be removed if not using over an extended time. The paper insert with instructions did not mention that (maybe include this tip?) but did say that Thrunite will replace a light within two years of purchase - that's a really good warranty I think. Good product all around.

I had several flashlights that simply don't work. I needed a good, reliable flashlight once I got my new puppy for night potty trips. This flashlight is great. It never acts up and does the job. I like the very low light option. I only wish it had a red light option as well. The rapidly flashing light option could be handy if you were in danger, but having to click through that option to get to the one you want is cringe worthy. Still a great flashlight!

Great little flashlight. Very bright, with a couple of different brightness and a flashing setting. I love that it uses a super powerful rechargeable battery

I rarely write glowing reviews, and I complain about just about everything when a product deserves it. This flashlight, however, has been outstanding. In fact, I liked it so much that I bought a second one for a friend because I knew he'd appreciate it. I haven't put it through extreme "survivalist" torture tests, but for everyday use around the house it's just about perfect. It's bright without being gimmicky, feels solid in the hand, charges easily with USB-C, and the controls are intuitive. It's become the flashlight I automatically reach for whenever I need one. After months of use, I honestly can't think of a single complaint—and coming from me, that's probably the strongest endorsement I can give.

This is a great flashlight, haven't reviewed for battery life or night vision as I just received it. Small, lightweight, very bright and I like that you can switch between different brightness levels as needed. One thing that should be improved is the instruction booklet in the packet. No instruction at all on what batteries it takes or how to put in the flashlight. I have similar ones, so just guessed by size and configuration that it was 2 AA batteries and how to put them in. Thought it was broken as it would not turn on when I pressed the button on the bottom. Turns out I had to also press a tiny silver button located on the end where the bulb is located. Instructions do describe that this button switches the brightness and switches to "firefky mode" and to switch to Strobe Mode. However, you must press it to turn on the light initially as well. This was not described at all in the booklet or on the box. Just some feedback for purchasers who are less patient and won't experiment to figure out how to turn it on. Other than that I am happy with the flashlight. It is on the pricy side, so will review again if battery life or any other items are not to spec.

Feels great in the hand, three light intensity modes, ability to rotate the clip (e.g., to clip to your baseball hat). Love the looks and the performance (so far, at least!)

It is part of our survival bags (car and home), we choose for this one as it is small, solid and can be adjusted in terms of how much light you want. It has additional features which are nice also for camping trips - proper distance - kids proof (my kids dropped it a few times and still working like a charm) - different lumen pending on what you need - waterproof (again kids who dropped it by accident)

Llegó en muy buen estado y antes de lo que pensaba. Fue un regalo para mi novio y le gustó mucho.

This replaces one that we foolishly lost!

Have had this for a few years now. Good flashlight. Only problem I found is when batteries leak. Yes, my fault. This is the first flashlight that I have had where the acid ate the casing. Not sure if the aluminum is subgrade.
