There's also the inverse square law with lights. For example, you would need 800 lumens to be double the brightness of 200. 200 lumens is double the actual brightness of 50 lumens.
Reason 1) Flood light functionality in the most compact form. There's a popular style on sites like Amazon that have a similar style with a built in carabiner clip. This increases the footprint. These Defiant style lights allows you to remove the carabiner allowing for a tiny footprint. Flood light functionality works just as good as some expensive portable "shop lights."
Reason 2) 4 ways of fastening. There are 2 types of clips on the back. Allowing it to easily clip on to anything (I routinely clip it to to the top of my couch while I write notes.) There is also a magnet and of course the carabiner, which is completely removable allowing you to use the small loop for anything you would like.
In summation. This is one of my top 2 models for daily flashlight carry. For me, they cannot compete with other similar products. @ $5 apiece I highly suggest picking some up if you're in the market for a small everyday flashlight.

Lo and high in my closet.
200 lumens is plenty for most situations you would need this sort of light in. The higher lumens a light is, the harder it is for your eyes to adjust to the darkness without it. As someone who collected flashlights for almost 2 decades, I just realized semi recently the vast majority of the time I am outside at night Id rather not use one. This is funny cause it goes against nearly everything in my thinking brain. Turns out if the moon is out and you give your eyes time to adjust, you can see better all around you without one.
There's also the inverse square law with lights. For example, you would need 800 lumens to be double the brightness of 200. 200 lumens is double the actual brightness of 50 lumens.

The statement that 200 lumens is double the actual brightness of 50 lumens is incorrect. Lumens measure the total amount of visible light emitted by a source per unit of time, so a brightness comparison should be based on the ratio of the two values.
To determine how many times brighter 200 lumens is compared to 50 lumens, you can divide the two:
- 50 lumens200 lumens=4
Thus, 200 lumens is actually four times brighter than 50 lumens.GPT-4o mini

Ask the AI to explain to you this if you don't believe me. "How does perceived brightness effect lumens with flashlights"
Logarithmic Perception: Our eyes don't see brightness linearly; to double perceived brightness, you need significantly more than double the lumens (e.g., 4x the lumens for double the lux).
