The best Amazon LED flashlights: Powerful and resistant to water | Comparative | Showcase

Have you ever left the light in your home, did you not have a flashlight at hand and you had to ‘survive’ the blackout filling everything with candles? If your answer is yes, I give you a solution: always have a flashlight; And if it’s LED, better. And these models are more durable and consume much less energy, so they are an ideal and very versatile option. In addition, they are another ideal ally to take an camping, since they usually offer a rather lasting battery and thanks to their power they are able to widely illuminate the terrain. In this comparison I analyze and compare several of these products to check which is the best LED flashlight.

How we have chosen and tested the products:

For two weeks I have been testing the benefits offered by each of these flashlights. To do this, I have used them both inside and outside, when walking through my town during the afternoon-night since the road and the roads that I usually travel are not illuminated. In this way I have been able to verify how these flashlights work, what are their main characteristics or how much the battery lasts. Choosing one that stands out among all of them has been a more difficult task than in other comparisons, since they are very similar models among them and that really offer very good performance. In addition, when analyzing and assessing them I have taken into account the following aspects:

• Design: All have in common a water -resistant design that is characterized by their easy handling and light weight. However, differences are perceived in construction and finishes.
• Autonomy: Like other portable electronic devices, incorporate a battery or work in batteries. Ideally, your autonomy is as much as possible. As an extra provision, the USB load port they include also serves to recharge, for example, the mobile phone battery. Is what is known as function Powerbank.
• Lightning: How is this lighting? Is it possible to choose between several light powers? Does it have a single light color or can it be chosen between various colors?
• Use experience: If the flashlight responds to our needs and how many modes of use it allows; For example, that incorporates an emergency light.

To illuminate a very wide distance: RELYBOA05-are LED Lantern

Who is it for: Who looks for a very powerful flashlight and with an excellent value for money.

Why have we chosen it: The first thing that caught my attention as soon as I get it out of the box was its robust and resistant design. And it is manufactured in aeronautical durable aluminum, which according to the manufacturer is capable of supporting a 6 -meter drop. They also say that it endures without damage the outrage of a truck of 20 tons, but it is something that I hope not to check. In addition, it only weighs 195 grams, so it is very comfortable to transport, either in the pockets or hanging it hand in hand with the belt it brings. Its design is also simple and ergonomic, since it adapts comfortably to the hand and does not slide by having a rough grip surface, and has an LCD screen in which the battery percentage is indicated.

As for its main characteristics, it works with 500,000 lumens, which makes it a very powerful model. This is complemented by its five modes of use: high, medium, low, flash and sos; that provide enough versatility of use. The one I liked the most was the medium, since the high seems to me that it illuminates too much; And the bass is ideal to illuminate something close or even to be able to read in the dark if you are camping, for example. And, taking into account its lighting length, it is able to easily illuminate an area of ​​240㎡ as a large wall), as well as focus an object that is about 1,525 meters away. Another point to highlight is its water resistance. It has IPX6 certification, which means that it can endure intense rains without deteriorating. In fact, I tried it under the shower to simulate that it was raining, and continued to work perfectly. However, it is not recommended to submerge it completely in the water, because in this case it could suffer damage.

On the other hand, his autonomy left me satisfied. It includes a rechargeable lithium ion battery and a USB-C port to load it, in addition to being used as an external charger connecting the mobile to it. In the least intensity mode, the battery lasted almost 10 hours in my tests, which is more than enough for a night out. However, in the maximum intensity mode, the duration is drastically reduced to about 2 hours. And, as accessories, the flashlight is accompanied by a rechargeable battery, a USB C cable, a cord, a flashlight cover, a mini UV lantern, an AAA battery support and 3 AAA batteries (as emergency backrest battery).

Your weak points: In intensive mode it is discharged quickly.

With stretch head: Beyste-A15

Who is it for: Who wants a very powerful and quite economical flashlight.

Why have we chosen it: It has a design quite similar to the previously analyzed model: robust but light (it only weighs 188 grams), it is made of aeronautical aluminum alloy and is completely resistant to blows. His mango, unlike that of the Relybo brand, has no roughness, but is still quite ergonomic. It also includes an LCD screen and controls from a single button.

It has an lighting power of 500,000 lumens and its range of action is 268 ㎡ and 1,520 meters. It also has five modes of use (high, medium, low, strobe and SOS) and can be focused at long distance stretching the flashlight head. The truth is that it is a very good model and that offers few differences with respect to the winner of the comparison, so it cost me to make the decision which was the best. However, it seemed to me that the battery of this model was a little worse than that of the previous one, although there is also no excessive difference beyond that in high mode the battery does not reach two hours of use. In the most intermediate modes it has good autonomy. It also offers an IPX6 level of water resistance and is accompanied by many accessories such as a UVmini flashlight, a USB light, a rechargeable battery, a USB-C load cable, 4 AAAA batteries, a belt to hook the flashlight, a cord …

Your weak points: The battery is quickly downloaded in the high mode.

With fluorescent design: Shadowhawk S1007

Who is it for: Those who want an economic but very good flashlight.

Why have we chosen it: One of the things that I liked most about this LED flashlight is that, even if I have a design similar to the rest of the models, it has details of fluorescent colors that make it more aesthetic. It also has a small LCD screen that shows the percentage of battery and has an ergonomic grip, although it is heavier than the other flashlights (500 grams), which is noticed if it is loaded with it in the hand for a while.

As for its light characteristics, it works with 500,000 lumens, it offers five modes of use and, where appropriate, has a range of 120 ㎡ and 500 meters away. This makes it a little less quality than the previous models analyzed, although the light it emits is quite powerful considering that it is the cheapest lantern of the analysis. It has IPX6 certification, which guarantees its resistance to blows, splashes and dust, and its battery is quite good since with a complete 3 -hour load it is able to endure about 12, using intermediate modes. It is also accompanied by interesting accessories, such as a mini UV keychain flashlight that according to the manufacturer is capable of detecting what the human eye cannot see, as urine, dog stains, blood remains … I tried this function, but it was not very clear to me if what really detected corresponded to these things or not.

Your weak points: It does not have as much reach as other models and is heavier.

With tail hammer: Wholefire FG1217

Who is it for: People who want a LED flashlight with less power, but very resistant.

Why have we chosen it: This flashlight did not quite convince me at all, since it has much less power than the others (90,000 lumens) but still its price is high. I think that what it highlights is that it is a very tactical model, with great resistance to blows and water (IPX65 certification) and that also has a tail hammer that can be used to break windows in case of emergency. It has five modes of use and the light that is achieved with it is good, but not so powerful or reached so much distance.

Even so, I think it can serve especially for people who want to take it in their car for any emergency or to use it inside or in little illuminated places. It has two load ports, since it can also be used to load external devices, such as a mobile, through a USB cable; and has an autonomy of about six hours with middle modes and two with a high mode.

Your weak points: It has less lumens and reach than the other models and its price is expensive.

Other interesting LED lanterns models:

If you are looking for a very cheap flashlight: This flashlight of the Blukar brand only costs 12 euros and has a power of 2000 lumens. It has two types of light (one more diffuse and one more concentrated) and with five lighting modes, including an emergency.

If you are looking for a frontal flashlight: This Mliaimce model is characterized by having 18000 lumens and 8 modes of use. It is designed to place in the head and is ideal to make arrangements in little illuminated areas or to walk with it in the dark.
