What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

Listing details are inconsistent or unconfirmed: the title and feature text describe USB recharging and an included USB-C cable, while technical details say AAA batteries are required and included and separately list a lithium-ion battery. Runtime is given as both 8 hours and up to 6–8 hours per charge. Waterproof claims include shallow-water use with the charging port closed and no diving, while another listing section claims IPX7. Confirm the selected listing’s battery, connector and protection details before buying.

Customer feedback evidence is limited to an aggregate rating distribution, which leans positive but also includes three-, two- and one-star ratings. This gives a mixed overall signal without identifying what customers liked or disliked, so it cannot establish brightness, battery life or water resistance in practice.

Is it rechargeable, and what battery does it use?

The title and feature text describe USB recharging, including an included USB-C cable, but technical details also state that AAA batteries are required and included and list a lithium-ion battery. Check the selected listing to confirm the supplied configuration.
