    Magnificently bright. Unheard-of bright. wow. bright. Did I mention bright? Great light for the money. Buy this and you'll def...

    very powerfull light

    posted by gzveri on 03/10/2013 Certified Owner

    Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month

    Pros:
    very very bright, a bit brighter than the lights of the car, but not that long distance. It is very bright the first 100 meters, lower light from 100-200 meters, and very dim from 200-300 meters. Throws a lot of light around, it is not a focused beam, but...
    Cons:
    There are 3 modes (bright, normal, off) on this flashlight, but my flashlight came with only 2 modes: bright, normal, normal :)...

    Amazing

    posted by gasbag11 on 02/19/2013 Certified Owner

    Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:more than 1 month

    Pros:
    The amount of light is amazing.Very good build quality. Fit and finish are very good. It's also a very good thrower. Much better than expected. Will throw some light about 250 meters, yet still has plenty of spill light for up close. It is definitely not j...
    Cons:
    The switch is a little too easy to press, so be careful it is not accidently turned on. You can unscrew the base about a half t...

    Well I just recieved my Fandy-fire UV-S5 and can tell you I'm very impressed! Great build quality, everything fits and works as it should. Batteries fit perfect, switch is a very nice soft touch side mounted clicky with low, high and secrete strobe function...
    Cons:
    When i first searched out this light it was rated at 3000 lumens and was downgraded while my order was being processed. I think...

    FandyFire UV-S5 CREE XM-L T6 3-Mode 3000LM

    posted by ubaHh on 01/12/2013 Certified Owner

    Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month

    Pros:
    bright as day during the middle of the night, good quality hard anodizing, heavy duty switch, batteries scratch the driver but doesnt seem to lower functionality. enormous flood
    Cons:
    I doubt its actually 3000 lumen but it is a hell of a lot. A bit tricky to run with less than 4x18650, a mid mode would make it...

    Great flashlight! Bright! Nice colour!

    posted by craappiboy on 01/06/2013 Certified Owner

    Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 day to 1 week

    Pros:
    Item came in a padded box, good for protecting the flashlight for its shipping. Includes a lanyard, and extra O-ring. Put in the 4x18650s (purchased separately), and wow! Very bright! Has large enough spill for suitable usage. Easy to use, one click for hig...
    Cons:
    The screwing in and out makes squeaky noise I'm afraid that might damage the threads. Lanyard may be too long. The clicky is a ...

    Bright

    posted by asdasd123123 on 01/04/2013 Certified Owner

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month

    Pros:
    It's friggin' bright. Has an acceptable runtime. Disco mode is hidden. Has mounts for straps. Wide projection, makes a great work light.
    Cons:
    It's too bright half the time. Low mode is a little too low. Wide projection, I blind myself when using it handheld.

    WOW!!!

    posted by DWMII on 12/29/2012 Certified Owner

    Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 day to 1 week

    Pros:
    WOW!!! This is the best made light I have ever purchased from DX. Very well made with hard anodized case and excellent easy click side switch. I bought for a bike light but have no idea how I am going to mount it yet. It is heavy at a pound all up, but ...
    Cons:
    This needs a medium output level too! Center spot is acceptable but could still be a bit wider for a bike light.
