Which bright flashlight is right for you?
Any of the flashlights on this list will be bright and have a lot of lumens, but the one you choose will mainly depend on what size flashlight you want and how much you want to spend.
How did we choose the best and brightest flashlights?
We chose these bright flashlights through extensive market research. We compared lumens, IP ratings, beam distance, and different price points to provide you with a wide variety of options.
What are a flashlight's lumens?
Lumens are a measure of the intensity of the light coming out of the flashlight on its highest brightness setting. It may also be displayed under multiple lighting conditions. A high lumen output means that the flashlight shines brightly.
Introduction
One of our readers asked us to review the Boruit C8 since he thought this was the best thrower in this category. I ordered it and, three weeks later, received it. Although Boruit isn’t a new name to me, this is the first Boruit flashlight I own.
According to its specs, it can reach up to 1000 metres with an output of 1050 lumens. We’ll find out if these numbers are trustworthy! If somebody would ask me about a C8 style flashlight (that is what this is), I would recommend the Convoy C8 or the Astrolux C8.
handling of the light
If you are looking for an affordable long-range flashlight, you might have come across the C8s. This type of flashlight has been on the market for many, many years. Every few months, another company produces it with a different emitter or driver.
This C8 flashlight is made by Boruit, a budget-friendly brand. although I don’t know if Boruit is an actual brand.
The switch is located in the tailcap, and it’s a reverse-clicky switch. That means that you have to fully press the switch and release it to turn the light on. It’s probably the most common switch on the market, especially in the budget world of flashlights.
Grip isn’t a problem with this flashlight. The flashlight body has rough knurling that gives excellent grip. The tailcap has no knurling, but together with the head, it has flat sides that make it stay stable when put on a flat surface. If you don’t like to carry it, you can always use the included lanyard! Although there is no holster included, these are pretty cheap to get on websites like AliExpress, eBay, Banggood, etc. In medium mode, I can hear a high pitched sound, which is pretty annoying in a quiet room.
Build Quality, Knurling, Threads, and Anodization
We are talking about a $20 flashlight, including a battery and charger. For that money, I am a bit suspicious in terms of quality and trustworthiness. The charger I won’t be using except for unlocking the protection circuit on some batteries I would advise you to do the same and use a lithium-ion charger that is made by a major brand! just to stay on the safe side.
The flashlight itself is not bad for $20. The body has anodized threads on the tailcap side and no anodization on the head side. This is great since you can unscrew the tailcap to get a second lockout. (the first being the tail switch).Across the light, anodization is done very well. I couldn’t find any blemishes or problems with machining.
LED, LENS, BEZEL, AND REFLECTOR
One reason for buying the C8 is the use of this particular LED. It uses the famous Osram CSLNM1.TG. This is an extremely bright LED that can be thrown really far. It’s probably the farthest throwing 3.5mm LED on the market. The LED is mounted on an aluminium MCPCB rather than a copper one.
The reflector is deep and smooth. It’s exceptionally smooth, and it’s most likely made of plastic. Smooth reflectors are needed for throwers! (or a convex lens system). The reflector gets protected by a glass lens, which doesn’t seem to have any AR coating. So it’s just clear glass.When you shine the beam on a white wall, it looks very white. It’s definitely on the cold side. The specs mention a colour temperature of 6000K, and that is probably correct.
Driver and User Interface:Here's where it gets weird:
Upon arrival, it was working like this: low, medium, high, strobe, and SOS. But now it’s working like this: low, medium, and high, without the blinky modes. I then realised it has two mode groups, even though the specs on AliExpress don’t mention anything like a two-group firmware.To change modes, set the flashlight to low and wait about 5 seconds. The light will flicker, and you should turn the flashlight off. This way, you move from 3 modes to 3 modes plus 2 blinks.
Batteries and Charging
Before I continue, I’d like to point out that the included charger should only be used as a backup and when you are keeping an eye on it. Since it’s so cheap, I wouldn’t trust it enough to charge it unattended.The battery that was included has a very low capacity. It’s a 2200 mAh battery, and although low on capacity, it works well. 2200 mAh sounds like a battery from the year 1999. Take a look at the runtime graphs below to see what it is capable of. It also doesn’t perform badly in terms of output. Its throw numbers are the same compared to the Samsung INR18650 30Q (pink).
