Flashlight High Lumens, 8000 Lumens Super Bright SP36 Pro Powerful Light USB C Rechargeable with 4*LED 5000K, Anduril 2.0 Programmable UI and Charging Cable（SP36Pro 5000k）

I like this flashlight. It is a serious, functional, and well-designed light. It has only two minor "cons" which I'll get to below. On the "pro" side, it is probably the best small flashlight I've ever owned. It is well programmed. It is easy to turn on and get to the precise brightness I want -- from battery-saving dim to movie set bright -- without getting tangled in blinking and flashing modes. I can't prove the numbers, but I would guess the manufacture's claims of brightness are valid. It can be *VERY* bright. It has strobe and blink modes, but they are programmed separately so they don't get in the way. I won't go into all the "accessory modes" (blinking, flashing, whatever) since I don't use most of them, but I'll admit some are rather creative. For example, there is a patterned flashing mode like a bicycle light to carry when you are walking next to an unlit road at night. And there is a slow-flash "beacon" mode that could be useful to someone stranded on the water or in the wilds at night. There is even a mode that blinks-out the battery voltage so you know when to recharge. Depending on how much brightness you use, a charge on the three Lithium batteries can last for a very long time. The aspect ratio of the body of this light is different from most flashlights -- it is short and fat. It fits well in my hand -- and I'm not a big person -- with the single control button comfortably under my thumb. The button action is crisp and well-defined. The reflector does not have variable focus, but with the brightness this light has, I don't consider that to be a problem. Which brings me to the two "cons": first, and most important for the way I often use this light, there is no place to attach a wrist lanyard. Without a lanyard, I fear dropping the thing overboard. I have temporarily rigged something with zip-ties and some cord, but it's a kludge. When I have time, I will try to do better with some macrame wrapped tightly around the body of the light. But I shouldn't have to do those things for a light of this quality and price. There should be a solid way to attach a wrist lanyard. The second thing that bothers me is the little rubber plug that covers the charging port. My experience is that these plugs, which occur on many devices, don't hold up well. They soon fatigue and break off. When that happens the device is no longer waterproof. So I guess I just have to be careful with it. And one other note: This light can be used to light an indoor space, like a room. It stands easily on its back-end pointing up and reflecting off the ceiling for nice indirect lighting. The manufacture recommends using a diffuser to scatter the light around the room, and apparently they sell one for the purpose. Amazon doesn't sell them and I haven't gone searching elsewhere for one, but I have made a perfectly good diffuser from a piece of baker's parchment (I might also try tracing paper) rolled into a long cone and placed on top of the upward-pointing light. It works.

This review is for the sofirn Flashlight High Lumens, 8000 Lumens Super Bright SP36 Pro Not sure what the 3 star ratings are all about. 1 & 2 stars happens to all lights. This light provides great flood lighting that reaches out a good 40 yards easily lighting up a large area with bright cool light. Yes it gets hot and yes it ramps down after a few seconds when on turbo/max setting. That is normal for ALL light of similar size and output. It is unavoidable, do not understand on why people believe this to be unreasonable. To have a light this bright that will stay on bright for the duration of the battery charge would need to be much larger, have cooling fins or even a fan attached. Light mfgs make lights that are as bright as we ask for, then some complain. Not having a way to put a strap on this light is a downside. But a zip-tie with a loop of paracord will suffice nicely. One comment mentioned there is a ring artifact on the beam. I never noticed it. The Anduril II UI is fantastic. I hated it until I actually played with it for a while. I cannot remember all the settings but I do learn the ones I use the most and I have the manual/chart and I run through it to see which features are actually activated. Candle mode is great for sleep time, especially on timer mode. I use the lightening mode for Halloween! To me, this light at its price is a bargain.

So far I like the flashlight. I wanted something like a spotlight but with a good throw. This light is filling that role well. It has a FET driver but I don't mind because it won't make a difference for what I'm doing. The UI is Anduril 2 with a simple and advanced mode. The simple mode is what it arrived in and is the default mode. I'm sticking with the simple mode because it's easier and fulfills what I need. The emitters are 5000k and look really nice. I prefer 6500k but 5000k is close enough. There were no factory marks on the light and the grips and cooling fins are free from defects. I like the grip and the overall weight with the three 18650 batteries doesn't feel heavy in my hands. There's no clip or lanyard hole. It would be nice to have a threaded hole to mount it on a tripod or a handle but I think you could probably 3D print one. Overall I really like the light and based on my use, I can recommend it.

Really bright and well built flashlight. Only complain is how hot it gets when on the highest setting! Recommend some sort of hand protection if going to use for prolonged periods of time.

Worked correctly right out of the box Very impressed Very Bright Only complaint is that its body gets a little hot after long use But still impressed in brightness, quality and ease of use

Tried 2. Neither worked.

As advertised. It was a gift to someone else who is an engineer & pilot. Upon opening the box he turned it on while looking at it...big mistake...he said ..."the back of his skull was burned" it was so bright. It is a quality built light that works right out the box just do not look at the light. It has no lanyard hole you will need some way to carry it. It is about the width of a soda can so pocket carry will require a big pocket. Still ....for those time when yo need to carry the sun in your pocket this is the light.

Tenía altas espectativas de este producto pues soy fan de la marca, pero llegó con un golpe muy ligero y no le tomé importancia, aunque el producto lo quería para regalar, no funciona correctamente, tiene un problema grave y es que no enciende al primer click como debería de ser (tendo varias linternas con el mismo sistema Anduril y sin problemas) intenté hacer un resete de fábrica pero el problema persiste, no la regresé porque el metodo de reembolso es muy engorroso y no te aseguran que te regresan el dinero íntegro. Decepcionado totalmente
