Very good product

Bright and quality built .

Update. I now own 4 of these Baibian flashlights. For the money you won't find a better flashlight. I have three different versions of these Chinese flashlights, and this is the best one of them all. I have accidently dropped this light 3 or 4 times on the concrete and it still works. The lumens are probably between 2,000 to 3,000 lumens. The listed lumens are a joke. The brightest flashlight in the world is only about 120,000 lumens and it has multiple LI-ion batteries and fans to keep it from burning up not to mention is costs about $700.00. Still this flashlight is very bright. The battery that comes with the flashlight is an unprotected 26650 Chinese cell. Li-Ion batteries should be charged at least once a month or maybe more depending on how much the flashlight is used to keep the voltage up above 2.45 volts. This flashlight will not recharge this unprotected cell when is falls below 2.45 volts. Therefore, do yourself a favor and purchase a pair of Japan made Orbtronic 26650 5950mah protected batteries from Orbtronic.com. They cost about $15.00 each but you won't have to worry about the flashlight recharging the battery. This battery has microchips at the cathode and anode to protect for overvoltage, undervoltage, overcurrent and temperature. The battery is rated for a continuous 10-amp discharge rate, so you won't have to worry about the flashlight turning off after being on for a short period of time as many reviewers have complained about. The battery can be recharged 500 times and has a lifespan of 5 years with many reviewers saying they have used these batteries over 10 years. I have purchased 12 of these batteries and I now use them in all 4 of my Baibian flashlights. This is an excellent flashlight for the price. This flashlight comes with the unprotected 26650 size Li-Ion battery. It will also accept the unprotected 26700 size battery as well. This flashlight will not work with 26800 long cells. I have purchased 3 different brands of this type of flashlight. The main difference between them is the rear cover which will determine which battery length can be used. In other words, you can use either the 26650, 26700, or 26800 battery in any of these flashlights if you have the correct tail cover. Right now, the 26800 cells are nowhere to be found. So, one might want to stick with the 26650 length battery version. If unprotected Li-ion batteries drop below a specified voltage around 2.45V, most will not recharge unless you have a special battery charger equipped with 0 volt activation function. While using these different flashlights, I have discovered that one does not have to cycle thru all of the 5 or 6 modes of the on/off switch. Simply hold down the power button 3 seconds after the flashlight turns off.

These are awesome and super bright!!

Fantastic
