This Casts a New Light on Things

LED flashlight by 5.11 Tactical offers quick recharge and operation in all conditions.
Compiled by staff 
Published: Nov 11, 2010

This isn't your average Dollar-Two-Ninety-Eight flashlight and it does cost more than its competitors, but when you consider it will provide non-fading light up to two hours and will recharge in 90 seconds in a vehicle or on wall current, some arguments against it begin to dim.

The 5.11 Tactical UC3.400 LED flashlight is designed for law-enforcement but shows good promise for other industries needing a dependable light source and long life. The light uses ultracapacitors instead of batteries and advanced circuitry for quick recharges and controlled current drawdown during operation.

It's fully-sealed water-resistant construction has been tested from -40 degrees F. to 149 degrees F. and 5.11 Tactical says it will operate up to 10 years with no additional purchases.

This flashlight would be a hit for Christmas giving, since it recharges in 90 seconds and provides two hours of illumination or a strobe flash.

The LEDs in the UC3.400 provide 270 lumens in bright mode and 90 lumens in the standard mode. Also, a third mode provides a 170-lumen strobe flash.

The light carries a suggested retail of $169. For more information, visit www.511tactical.com
