You never really know what you are going to get when you buy from AliExpress, I have had some bargains and been ripped off a few times but one thing is for sure, never believe the description or review for the products. This flashlight is a good example as it is an excellent product available for a good price but fails to meet the outlandish claims made for it. According to the product description this torch outputs 1000W LED and 990000000LM and is visible at 1500m range! Elsewhere in the description, more modest claims are made that the light output is a more modest and believable 4200Lux. I do have to say here that this is the largest and perhaps the most powerful torch I have yet reviewed. I paid ￡23.47 but it is widely available on AliExpress from a range of sellers for as little as £15.
In the plain unbranded white box, I received the torch itself, a very short USB-C charging cable and a shoulder strap. No instructions or information sheet was included.
The torch is impressively large at about 265mm in length with a maximum front diameter of 72mm. The body is largely made of plastic with the front lens assembly section made from aluminium alloy. Midway down, is a gromett protected bay containing the USB-C charging port and the USB A power out port – yes, the flashlight is also a power bank. On the other side is the single control button with an LED display around it confirming charging and operation status. On the rear is the large COB light controlled by the same button. Long press the button to activate the COB light, and short press to scroll through the three lighting levels of the main torch and the SOS strobe light. There are lugs front and rear to connect the supplied shoulder strap. The torch claims to be IP68 waterproof and this may well be true. Rotate the front of the lens section to focus the light beam and push/pull to zoom the beam.
The torch is much lighter than I expected due to the plastic body but the lens assembly section feels more robust and better made. Unlike many torches, this cannot be disassembled to access the batteries but there are claimed to be three rechargeable 500mAh batteries inside. The front lens can be removed but this does not give access to the battery area. In general build quality seems OK but my torch does rattle and something is clearly loose inside although the torch seems to be working fine. Some buyers on AliExpress claim theirs arrived damaged or not working.
Charging is fast and easy with an LED display confirming the charging status. The internal battery is supposed to be 1500mAh and I have no reason to doubt this. There is a USB A output port to allow the torch to work as a power bank and this it does. and although not particularly fast it will allow you to charge
