I have a couple of these and love them. Bright, sturdy, holds a charge a long time and on the smaller size being 6.22 inches long. A great flashlight you can stuff many places where you need one. It really is my go to flashlight.

This is a ZOOMABLE flashlight, which is flawed by design. Zoomable flashlights promote dirt, oil. water and moisture in general to gather near the optics and destroy the output clarity.
The user interfaces on Anker's lights are awful. One of the worst in the business. Absolutely terrible in comparison to like priced vendors.
When it comes to AMAZON flashlights, the best bang for your buck is with the Wowtac flashlight brand. They are regarded well by the flashlight enthusiast and community.

There is a list of their flashlights and specs.

I am a flashlight enthusiast and highly recommend people stick to flashlights with high "color rendering indexes" such as 90+. I also highly recommend sticking to the warmer color lights such was 4000k as higher colors such as 6000k do more to diminish the quality of what you're looking at.

The whole point of the battery is so you can pop it out and pop in a fresh one.

Thats your opinion. Some people use it. As far as 1000 lumen flashlights go, I think your best bet is the Convoy s2+ it has 5 mode like this but is switchable to 3 mode without SOS or strobe. It's cheaper, by half, but doesn't include an 18650 battery. I have 2 and love them. It has a much wider spill than the sofirn 31b that was a deal a month or so ago for half the anker price and included battery and had onboard charging. Here is a post with beam shots from the Convoy and a couple other lights I posted https://slickdeals.net/forums/showpost.php?p=
It seems like they don't show up on mobile unless you select desktop mode in the browser.
Edit it appears the anker has memory so it should remember the mode you turn it off in, so unless you need to change modes all the time you should mostly be able to avoid seeing SOS and strobe.
Another problem is having the strobe mode means the flashlight's switch can get stuck in strobe mode (like 1/2 I own).
Another thing to be aware of. If you keep the battery inside, it will drain and be dead with any extended storage. Charge them regularly or keep the batteries separate if you need them for emergency use.
Sounds like a fine bright light
