WUBEN L3 Tactical Rechargeable Flashlights, 3000 High Lumen LED Tail Switch Flash Light 4800mAh Dual-Way USB C Charging 7 Light Mode, IP68 Pocket Flashlight for Home, Emergency, Outdoor, Camping

First off, I do have one minor issue with this light: the UI. I have a small collection of flashlights with at least four other WUBEN lights, and I'm not sure why they decided to change their usual UI with this one. One of my favorite features of my other WUBEN lights is the immediate access to Turbo mode. That was removed here. The flashlight has to be turned on first before holding the button will activate Turbo mode. On top of that, the brightness cycling is not linear. First it cycles brightness up, then it cycles down. Everything still works correctly, it just takes a lot more clicks to get back to where you were if you accidentally go too far (plus you don't know if the next step will be up or down unless you remember). Aside from that, the WUBEN L3 exceeded expectations. One of my necessities in a flashlight like this is for it to tail-stand. This one passes the test. More importantly, for a flashlight in this price range, the brightness is crazy. Whether you're walking at night, checking the backyard, or just keeping it in your car for emergencies, this thing will definitely be bright enough. The beam is powerful, focused, and has great throw. For the price, you're getting performance that competes with flashlights twice its cost. It feels sturdy and well-built, like I expect from WUBEN. The battery life is solid too, even on higher brightness settings. Overall, if you want a reliable, incredibly bright flashlight without breaking the bank, this is a great choice. Highly recommend.

Update 7/22/25 - second replacement has tail cap switch issues. When cycling through the modes, the mode will get stuck and only way to turn off light is unscrewing back end. This light is pure junk. DO NOT BUY. This is my second L3, I had to replace the first one for several reasons. The first one had several issues that were not acceptable. The first reason was because the emitter produced a donut hole effect that was very noticeable. The other reason was when I removed the pocket clip, it took some of the paint off, and I didn’t even twist or do anything to the clip, I just pulled it straight off. Now I know it’s a tool first and foremost, but for a light that says it’s tough I don’t think the paint should do that right off the bat. As for the function, the light produces very good light. The size is a beast but the actual milling of the aluminum is great. It does heat up on the strongest setting but that is to be expected. Power bank is a great function and works great. The power of the modes is great. I like the tone of the light and throw is amazing. So overall, it’s a great light, but there seems to be bugs to work out.

My wife says I'm a flashlight nut. Not because I have 20 or 30 flashlights, it's because I have diving lights but don't know how to swim. It because it has 7 lighting modes one of which is an SOS mode. Useful on a sinking ship? Maybe but I don't know anyone who knows that an SOS signal is. I am super impressed with the fit and finish, it's literally flawless. It is a piece of flashlight art. I keep picking it up just to marvel at its design. Even the white lettering on the body is impeccable. Its's really a beautiful flashlight (if you think flashlights can be beautiful) I think the most impressive feature is the protected charging port. It has to be far more waterproof than a rubber plug. This design is genius. I also like its ability to tail stand. a useful feature when using it as a work light. The pocket clip is industrial size. I don't think this is a pants pocket size or weight flashlight, but the clip is strong enough to hold it to a backpack or tool bag without worrying about it falling off. However it certainly will fit in any jacket pocket Because of its 3000-lumen output it eliminates the need for anything larger for 99% of what you might need a flashlight for. For all round usefulness this flashlight will be hard to beat. This thing is really built like a tank; it just feels that way when you first pick it up. I'm not saying you could hammer nails with it, but you certainly could beat off a bad guy with a few bashes to the head. I haven't had a lot of time to use it at night. but from my preliminary use it does case a nice beam a great distance. It can easily light up all the houses on my block from top to bottom (sorry neighbors). I don't see any negatives on this flashlight, but I would like to make a few suggestions. A slightly crenelated bezel so if you accidently put the flashlight face down you could easily see if you left it on. The rubber tail cap switch seems a bit thin compared to other flashlights I own. And finally, the lanyard could be a bit beefier for such a brute of a flashlight. In summary, I have no regrets. It is beautiful flashlight, well made, super sturdy and will make your flashlight friends jealous and leave your wife shaking her head as to why you needed another flashlight. I think the green color is lovely a nice change of pace from traditional black.

Excelente lanterna. Muito potente. Muito robusta. Acabamento premium. Recomendo.

For the price, this torch is very good. I'll compare it to an old Zanflare F1 which I also own. Size is very good, easily fits in a pocket. Weight is probably as good as it can be given the build quality and size of easily replaceable 18650 battery. USB C charging is handy (better than the F1 micro usb). Beam pattern and colour temp is good, slightly cooler than the F1 and a similar spread. Brightness settings: low is good for reading books it still has enough light to dimly light the area close to you. Level 2 is good for general use. Level 3 packs a fair level of illumination. Level 4 lights up a huge amount, I rarely use it. You have to cycle through the brightness levels to access them. Compared to the F1 it isn't as good on brightness control, not far off though. You cycle through the levels via the power button at the back/bottom of the torch on the Wuben so it is possible to switch the torch off in error. The F1 had a dedicated mode button so this couldn't happen. It also hid the max brightness mode behind a double click so you didn't always access it (only when you really needed it). Has a few other modes which I'll never really use, SOS and strobe. Do I like it? Yes. Would I recommend it? Yes. Has it surpassed my F1? Yes Do I use the torch on a daily basis? No, but I do use it. Would I carry it at night? Yes, perfect size and massively capable. Recommended? Yes

It has to be one of favourite tactical light. It has 5 different light modes to choose from. Perfect for camping and indoor pitch black rooms.

I could have spent loads more and I could even have spent much less, but I think this is the Goldilocks torch for a non-enthusiast. It is crazy bright and will light up a pitch black lane with ease. The build quality was far better than I expected and in my opinion is built as well as my more expensive fenix. It is really nice to hold and is a good weight. The finish is a high quality unlike some of the cheap torches I have had in the past. The key feature for me is that it does not require me to remove the battery and put the battery in a bespoke charger, but instead plugs directly in to a USB C charger cable. I also really like that there is an LED that can display the battery level. The lens on this is fantastic giving a relatively small hot spot and a good spread for the main beam. There is no zoom function, which for me is a benefit as it keeps it slim, I also think this is a pretty useless feature on a general purpose torch anyway. It is a shame it does not come with a case, but you can buy one. It does come with a lanyard and some spare o-rings which is nice. The button on the back works well, some of the cheap torches I have had in the past clearly save money here, but this is crazy as it is the main interface. With this torch they have clearly understood this as it is a good quality button and even has the logo on it (nice touch). I am genuinely so impressed with this torch. There are so many cheap torches that claim they are as bright or as well built and it is a minefield out there. There are also so many expensive fancy torches out there that the average person will never want to buy as they are just too pricey for the odd use on a dark night, a camping trip or power cut. Which brings me to my first paragraph, this is the Goldilocks torch, it is a reasonable price and a quality piece of kit. It is not super fancy but most importantly it is not a piece of cheap rubbish. Highly recommended!

In breve: compatta e potente, intensità facilmente regolabile, scalda poco, sportellino connettore ricarica da migliorare, fuoco fisso. In dettaglio: la torcia si presenta ben costruita, il tasto nel fondello (come tutte le torce tattiche) è protetto da due semicerchi facenti parte del corpo metallico che servono anche per posizionare la torcia "in piedi" per illuminare una stanza, anche il fronte luminoso è incassato nel corpo e quindi protetto dagli urti. Il tasto di accensione regola le quattro intensità di luce con una pressione più leggera ed intuitiva anche se la cosa è spiegata male nel libretto di istruzioni, l'intensità maggiore è effettivamente potente ed accecante utilissima in ambito tattico, quella appena inferiore è la più pratica nell'uso normale, al terzo livello abbiamo una luminosità sufficiente per illuminare una stanza usando la torcia come lampada in verticale su un tavolo mentre l'ultima è più una luce notturna per bambini o "da tenda" in campeggio. Il fuoco è fisso ma non si sente la mancanza di una regolazione. La durata della batteria è adeguata per un turno di otto ore con uso discontinuo, il LED presente avvisa comunque dello stato di carica che è possibile effettuare anche in auto con il cavo USB C fornito. Anche alla massima intensità il corpo della torcia scalda poco e non diventa mai fastidioso, il gancio per la cintura è molto rigido ed assicura una notevole tenuta, per contro è davvero fastidioso quando si impugna la torcia "a coltello", ad esempio per supporto ad un'arma, ma è possibile rimuoverlo. Lo sportellino in gomma è del tipo economico che si trova nelle torce da pochi euro, fissato al corpo metallico tramite un "chiodino" di gomma piantato in un foro, tende ad aprirsi spesso ed è facilissimo strapparlo per errore cosa che non dubito accadrà presto. Pur con questo piccolo difetto la torcia merita 5 stelle anche per il rapporto qualità/prezzo e per le notevoli prestazioni nonostante le ridotte dimensioni. Assolutamente consigliata.
