This is the most useful flashlight you will ever own! It has a brighter spotlight farther throwing than other lights this size. It has a brighter floodlight than other flashlights this size, and the programmable side light that will run for 20 days has more uses than you can imagine. First I want to mention there are other copy cat lights that look very similar to this one and they are not the same quality. I tested one of them that was advertised as IPX68, put it in water for a minute, and it was all over after that; turning on by itself, shorted itself out, no way to turn it off! This LOOP GEAR flashlight is everything as advertised plus more! The highest quality, as advertised, best you can buy. Watch my video where I pack it in sand, put it in water several times, No Problem! It is made from a new type of aluminum alloy that is tougher, more impact resistant, and has a nicer finish than the previous aluminum generations. On my video I show detailed specs, you can freeze the video and screenshot if you want. Besides the obvious bright flood, spot, combination and strobe, the side light needs to be talked about. You can set a light pattern you like, clip it on your belt for bike riding at night, walking the dog, and how about being at a crowded airport and telling your uber driver look for the guy with the flashy blue light on his belt! This is airport friendly with no problem. Buy a few of them and clip it on your kid’s belt or backpack so you can see them from a distance. But wait, there’s more! You can use this as a battery bank to charge your phone. But wait, there’s more! If you’re off grid for several weeks camping, you can easily swap out batteries if you need to. One more thing that’s over the top; this light has a glow in the dark feature where you can find your flashlight in complete darkness. I explained how in my video, and provided specs. Also, while it’s in lock mode, on your nightstand, if you pick it up and hit the button as a momentary switch, the side light lights red so you can look for something in the middle of the night if you need to. Too many uses to list! Read more

So as we all know, flashlights are insanely good now. LED technology combined with lithium-ion batteries means that we've all had access to incredibly powerful, compact lights for years. And they just keep getting better. Now the lights aren't "just" super bright, but make beautiful, smooth light and carry out all kinds of handy functions. I actually bought this one because I was looking for battery banks to buy as Christmas gifts and hit a good sale here on Amazon. It's truly one of the coolest gadgets I've ever seen. Beautiful, compact, powerful and versatile. If I only had one flashlight, this might have to be it. LIKES Overall build quality - This is a solid, sophisticated, well-built light. It's actually smaller than I imagined from the photos -- just a bit bigger than holding a pair of 18650 batteries in your hand. The "MAO” anodized finish on the solid aluminum shell is supposed to be a bit tougher than normal treatments, and is unlike anything I've seen -- it's a smooth, khaki finish that feels a bit like polished stone. The light exudes quality in the fine details and feels like a professional or military-grade tool. The included belt clip is rock-solid and can be put on so the head of the light points down or up (down allows for a deep carry). Brightness -- I'm not a flashlight hobbyist, but I did thumb through some of the very thorough reviews online, and apparently the manufacturer's claims are accurate, taking into account that all sophisticated modern flashlights like this one automatically throttle down from maximum power pretty quickly to avoid battery damage or extreme heat. The brightest option is to press and hold the power button down in an any mode, which brings both the flood and spot beams on at full power. Somehow they combine to make a single, coherent flood of light that is extremely powerful, so should you need to illuminate a football field for a few seconds or reveal every corner of the back yard, you can. Note on the heat: I haven't tried torture testing the light with full power, but the heat seems concentrated at the front of the light -- you can actually feel it strongly holding your hand in front of it. I have not felt the body get warm (again I'm not pushing it). Less than full power doesn't seem to heat up badly. Used normally at low or mid power and just flashing to full power when needed, this light feels safe and solid. Features -- This is where this light, erm, really shines. It's packed to the gills with functionality: - 2 removable 4,000 mAh 18650 batteries, accessible from a latch on the bottom that has a reassuring sliding lock to keep it secure. Mine came with a 60% charge. - A USB-C port with a rubberized push-in cover, through which you can charge the light from a power source, or charge another item like a cell phone. The light automatically switches polarity depending on what you connect. This feature alone -- a power bank with replaceable batteries, makes it incredibly useful. We've just had to throw out a number of power banks where the internal batteries began bulging ominously, and it's always a shame to chuck a $50-60 item in the recycling. You could theoretically use this forever, and 8,000 mAh of capacity makes it good-sized backup battery for any lithium-ion device. 5 lights - Rotating through the dial surrounding the power button, you can first select the three-emitter "floody" light. As with the rest of the lights, you have three brightness levels selected by holding the button down,, from a fairly modest beam that will still illuminate better than any old-school flashlight, to a hearty medium, and finally a ferocious (2,000-something lumens?). Another clockwise click of the ring gets you the piercing one-emitter spotlight, again with three levels. The beam quality of both is excellent, and the coherence on the spotlight is so sharp you actually see the shape of the beam from the side, even on lower power levels. The hotspot is a sharply-defined circle. Another click of the ring gets you to the multi-function side LED, shaped like a narrow oval inset into the body of the light. When you activate any of the other beams, it shows a rough power level with a blue light. When you have the dial set to lock, it flashes red whenever the power button is pressed. On its own, the side light can be set to an array of colors, or even a combination of multiple colors, and three brightness levels. It can also be set to flash in a number of patterns, including blue and white, chasing, and SOS. Set to the most "white" color (a bit yellow) it will provide decent ambient light, good enough to see your way around a single room or a tent, although perhaps not enough to be a work light (if you're sticking it to a car hood, you'll be using the flood beam here). I think one intention is that you can clip the unit to a shoulder strap on a bag or backpack and set the side light to flash as a pedestrian or cyclist safety measure, which I think it would do quite well. Magnetic tail - The bottom of the light has both small pads to allow it to "tail stand" and magnets, which will support the weight of the light when working. I did note that on a vertical surface, you need to align the narrow part of the unit up and down - set perpendicular it will not support its weight. The unit can also "headstand" as there is a small lip in front of the lenses. This is actually a very stable position and would be handy using the sidelight for ambient illumination. What else? -- The light is rated to be military-grade dust and water resistant -- good enough to actually submerge if needed, although I would hesitate to dunk it deliberately as the flap on the USB-C cover is good, but I wouldn't want to risk exposing it in a full submersion. But it's good to know even heavy rain or a drop into a puddle should not be an issue. NOT SO LIKES Nothing so far. One thing I found out after purchase is that the manufacturer offers two versions of the LED emitters in the floodlight -- a coveted Nichia brand that provides exceptional color accuracy (becoming a "thing" in flashlight circles, I've read) or a brighter, whiter kind. I saw no option to select one or the other on Amazon, and got the brighter, whiter lights (there is a checkbox on the fancy magnetic box it comes in). I'm fine with what I got, but if this is a concern for you, take note. Others have questioned the solidity of the rotating ring around the power button, and the relative "clickiness" of the button itself. I found both feel reasonably solid, and actually quite like the power button with its fine concentric ridges. But I expect that in a bad drop, the ring would be the most vulnerable part of the light. The button's movement is fairly shallow, but it clicks positively and I find it solid enough. Neither the ring nor the button wobble perceptibly. Price -- Retail is around $160, which is getting steep for my tastes, but the Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales on Amazon had it down to about $106-111, which is why I decided to grab one. Given the prices of other premium lights, I think it's reasonable. This is a piece of equipment inconceivable when I was growing up and even the "fanciest" flashlights barely made enough light to see, that is when the batteries (and bulbs!) weren't burning out. To someone my age, all of the new lights feel like they landed from outer space, but this one is a whole new level. Other -- This is just a neat, solid piece of gear overall. Compact, smooth and cool to the touch, and quite pocketable unless your pockets are already full. I don't have a ton of other LED lights, but this is the one I would carry anywhere I thought I needed serious illumination. Perfect for the car or a camping trip, or just as a a go-to around the house light that does everything. And frankly it's fun as a "gadget," if you or anyone you know likes that sort of thing. Five big, slick, feature-packed high-tech stars. Highly recommended. Read more

Cette lampe de poche est ma préférée! Elle possède plusieurs fonctions dont une lumière d’ambiance et un indicateur d’état des piles. Elle possède également une luminosité très puissante avec plusieurs réglages d’intensité. Fournie avec deux piles amovibles de 4,000 mah chacune, et qui sont facilement interchangeables. Peut également servir de chargeur portable pour téléphone, via le port USB-C, car cette lampe a une capacité de 8,000 mah au total avec ces deux piles. Fabriquée d’aluminium de qualité, ce qui en fait un accessoire très robuste. Je possède plusieurs lampes de poche, mais celle-ci est la meilleure et la plus puissante. Elle est accompagnée d’une garantie de 5 ans, ce qui est étonnant pour un produit comme celui-ci. Un peu dispendieux, mais ça vaut le coût. Je la recommande fortement. Read more

Good until now but i had another one and i lost it, but was a great flashlight. Read more

Este producto si es bueno. Buena calidad y precio Read more

Great flashlight but since ability to use for charging from flashlight limited to approximately 20 percent of battery capacity was a disappointment. I can charge my iPhone X about 1 1/4 times and although about 80% battery left in flashlight, that seems to be the limit of the ability to charge from device. Everything else is as advertised.

Flashlight is great, battery latch may not hold up, ok now but we'll see. VERY bright when Max lumens used. Robust construction, latch...we'll see. Bought holster, regret now. Flashlight gets stuck inside holster. Pulling on it to deploy, holster comes with it. Read more

Okay let’s just say wow! All the functions and modes. The battery is amazing. The amount of light this thing can produce and it’s small perfect fitting in your palm with a nice weight to it. Feels premium features are premium. Perfect EDC. Read more

So far so good. Built very sturdy seems to be high-quality. So far I love this flashlight. Read more

I’ve wanted this light for so long and it was absolutely worth the wait! The SK05 is like having two completely different flashlights in one compact body. I held out for the MAO version and I’m so glad I did. The finish feels incredible like a stormtrooper’s helmet and feels great in the hand. Construction feels remarkably solid and well made. Both main beams are impressively powerful. The user interface is simple, intuitive, and easy to learn. Battery life is fantastic and easily double what I get from most of my other lights. The side RGB light is a cool touch and is fun to play with. If you’re on the fence, go for it. This thing is a beast in all the right ways. Read more

Good quality flashlight with lots of features and solid build. MAO Finish looks nice. Heavy but sturdy. I also have a Nitecore EDC23 which I prefer for EDC purposes (smaller, quick lock switch, quick access to strobe). But at home or in the car, the SK05 Pro wins. Read more

So close! For some reason, on an otherwise amazing flashlight, LOOP GEAR decided to spec a pretty cheap (feeling) selector switch. My main complaints are that the detent is way too soft, and the selector just feels wiggly and cheap. Mind you, this is the point where the user actually interfaces with the device itself, via the thumb. Why in the world would an engineer specify such a cheap feeling switch?! The UI is great as is the intensity of both the flood and spot beams. The tactical strobe is absolutely blinding!! The body construction and texture are fantastic! As much as I want to just pack the light up and send it back to Amazon and wait for Gen2-- the one with a better switch, I will give this light a chance. The manufacturer offers a 5 year warranty. Bummer though! Read more

Very nice light. I like having both a flood and spot beam in a single flashlight. The side led light is not incredibly useful. The colored modes are just a gimmick and the “natural” color temps have a strange color cast that makes everything look very unnatural. The side light also is not very bright. If they made a version of this that had a true work light on the side with proper color temperature and tone, this would be 5 stars. Read more
