What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The 8-hour runtime is an up-to claim and depends on the selected mode. The listing also gives a 1400mAh battery and 2.5-hour USB-C charge time, rather than specifying runtime for each mode. Listing details are inconsistent or unconfirmed: the title claims 2000L, but no matching lumen unit or measured output is supplied, and the separate battery specifications do not confirm that title capacity. The listing also describes the torch as waterproof without an IP rating, and its details list a USB cable while feature text specifically says USB-C. Check the selected listing for the light-output figure, protection rating and charging-cable connection before buying.

Customer feedback highlights perceived build quality and brightness. The supplied rating distribution is predominantly five-star, though ratings alone do not establish how bright the torch is in a particular mode or how it performs in wet conditions. For buyers considering its claimed multi-mode lighting, the feedback is encouraging but does not resolve the unconfirmed output figure or water-protection rating.
Positive themes
- Customers are reported to appreciate the build quality.
- Customers are reported to appreciate the brightness.
