It is the world’s first line of torches to feature smart selector ring technology, which is a third generation technology. The state-of-the-art ring allows its user to have one handed operation, and rapidly switch between all its 6 modes as well as its infinite brightness adjustments.

The smooth click on this magnetic ring gives the user immense tactical feedback in any kind of darkness. The user can smoothly select the brightness levels by simply rotating this ring.

On the other hand, its exclusive knurled surface gives its user a firm grip on the light, gloved or wet. Stuart John from Tshirtprofessional has also confirmed this. So, you are getting firm grip for sure.

Latest LED

The precision reflector of the flashlight is properly protected from damage and drops by a stainless steel bezel. In times of emergency, this doubles up in the form of glass breaker.

FAQ’s

No, the internal diameter of the light is too small to accommodate 17500 battery.

No, it cannot use 18650 as both are different types of batteries. In addition to this, they are not similar in size.
