A basic mini flashlight has a total lumen output of about 15 lumens, while a headlamp can have a total of about 50 to 100 lumens. A flashlight that is considered to be really bright, such as the Klarus G35 tactical flashlight has an output of 2000 lumens – but this not even close to the lumen output from the brightest tactical flashlight in the wold! Wicked Lasers introduced what is said to be the brightest and most powerful tactical flashlight in the world, it is called The Torch and it has a blinding lumen output of 4100 lumens! This is enough lumen power to cook breakfast and start a fire.
Let’s compare some an example of lumen output to the power of The Torch - A normal candle has an output of 12 lumens!If 4100 lumens are just too powerful for you to handle (as it probably is for most normal people) then take a look at the tactical flashlight selection on the Klarus website. These Tactical Flashlights will not set everything on fire when you shine it!
The Torch is a tactical flashlight with a rechargeable battery system. The casing of The Torch is made from military grade aluminium and it is simply switched on by using the basic button at the base. Seems like a regular torch, right?
Well, it’s not at all like any tactical flashlight you’ve ever seen before!
When you switch it on, there is a warning that you should wear protective gloves as the casing becomes extremely hot after a few minutes – you don’t want to melt your hands now do you? Not only is there the danger of burning your hands, but the battery barely lasts because of how high the lumen output is, plus the Torch does not come cheap.
BUT, if you’d like to have fun cooking an egg with a tactical flashlight, then this toy is perfect for you. If this isn’t your cup of tea, take a look at the range of flashlights from Klarus!
