ThruNite Saber 659 Lumens Small EDC Flashlight AA...

Most Helpful Review

"*Update* After using them for a couple of weeks I am overall still very happy with the purchase. But the clips kinda suck. I say kinda because they work but they aren't designed great. one of them broke from getting snapped on a bag of mulch I was handling. And the clip has almost no traction when clipped to my pants pocket. If the outside of the slip gets caught while driving or something, The flashlight starts to work its way up and out of the pocket. Luckily I've only lost it in my car so far. It's a fairly cheap light but I would hate to lose it. You replace enough of these things and it becomes an expensive light. A solution would be to take the bottom end of the clip that contacts you pants and file some rough texture lines into it. I emailed the company and they sent me a couple of replacement clips under the warranty, took a couple of weeks but i didn't have to do anything but write an email and wait. Very easy to deal with.----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Just got them. Haven't put them through the paces yet but I am impressed! Lit up my whole back yard in pitch black. Nice and wide, pretty much all a big even hotspot with soft edges.I knew going into it that they only have a high and a low. For the price of $10 each if you get the two pack, I can live with it. They are really well made and perform great. But it's a huge mistake not programming an ultra low mode into them. They come with a really nicely written and thorough instruction pamphlet. To me that is only a little relevant but it certainly demonstrates a company's attention to details in general and care for their product.They were bright out of the box. But after playing with them for a few minutes, I decided to see how charged they are. They each took about 2 hours with regular cell phone chargers. So that leads me to think one of two things: Either they weren't that charged out the box but still performed excellent, or they just charge slowly whatever the amount of charge they have left. Not sure. Specs say they take 2-6 hours to recharge whatever that means.Tried them with regular new Duracell AA's and they still worked great but less bright than the included lithium. Still quite useable and great to have that option.Some nitpicks, none of them deal breakers for me personally:-The clip is nice but could be a little better designed. A bit more "deep carry" geometry and angled more at the lip that slip over your pocket.-The button is great; metal or metal feeling and heavy with a long press, but its smooth. I would prefer some knurling/texture.-I knew going into it that they only have a high and a low. For the price of $10 each if you get the two pack, I can live with it. They are really well made and perform great. But it's a huge mistake not programming an ultra low mode into them.So overall I am stoked and will come back and update this review if my first impressions don't match up with regular use. I bought them based on price and great reviews from youtubers so I am not super worried about it. One will be my EDC and one will be my backup that lives in my vehicle."
