$23.99 in-warehouse. It's not actually 3000 lumens, my 2100 lumen Coast light is nearly as bright. Guessing maybe in the neighborhood of 2500 lumens or less. The twist "focus" doesn't actually go down to a true spotlight. And it starts stepping down in brightness after a couple of minutes of use.

It's big and heavy and there's reports that more than a few don't charge properly or at all.

Uses a 3 C-cell size battery unit, all shrink wrapped together. Can only be charged through the body of the light itself.

All in all decent for $24+tax, but not a penny more. And I don't have a lot of hope for it's lifespan.

It was also $24 at my warehouse so I got one.

Agree with the above criticisms. decently bright, not amazing. beam doesn't focus very tightly. little annoying the rechargeable battery isn't a standard size like 18650. looks like feit plans to sell replacements but I didn't check price.

I would add the USB battery bank function has a 1A max output...so when they say emergency use they mean, you'll only want to use it in an emergency :p

If you put your hand close to the lens, the heat gets pretty extreme. Maybe FEIT decided to limit zoom because of some burn or fire hazard. With the right magnifying lens you could probably set stuff on fire. Tried to unscrew the lens, but it sits pretty tight; don't want to damage or scratch anything.

Batteries are 26650 in parallel, same voltage and double capacity; you can see conductors running along the length of cells. It is actually printed on the battery pack, 26650 3.7V. So, they can be replaced if welded properly. There is a spacer or BMS of some sort at the end, as the battery compartment length also needs to accommodate 3 alkaline C cells as an alternative source.
