Nitefox K3 Mini Keychain Flashlight AAA Small Keychain Light Bright 150 Lumens with Diffuser Clip,Multipurpose Pocket Light as Candle Hat Lamp Camp Lantern for Everyday EDC Dog Walking Hiking Camping

I purchased this K3 Mini Keychain AAA flashlight from Nitefox to use as a small, lightweight emergency travel flashlight. The flashlight arrived as scheduled. It came inside a cute little plastic box measuring about 1 x 2 x 3 inches. The box contents included the flashlight, spare O-ring, diffuser head, a snap-on pocket clip, a spring-open keychain, as well as an instruction sheet. Everything was exactly as pictured on the Amazon website. The flashlight measures 2 3/4 inches in length. The head of the flashlight is 0.54 in in diameter and the body of the flashlight is 0.50 in in diameter. It weighs 9 grams without any battery. With my single AAA battery installed, it weighs 20 grams (0.7 oz). The finish is a nice black anodized aluminum with prominent knurling on both head and body of the light. The Nitefox name is printed on the head. The battery fits easily inside the flashlight and does not rattle when I shake it. The threads on the head are smooth and the head rotates with just the right amount of resistance (thanks to the O-ring) to turn the light on or change brightness levels. The light will not accidentally turn on by itself.The light has low, medium, and high levels (see my uploaded photos). As others have said, the low is a little brighter than the "moonlight" level that I've seen in other flashlights. It reminds me more of what the early LED flashlights would provide. The medium level is relatively bright and sufficient for most uses. If you really need a brighter light, the bright level is quite bright, especially for the small size of this flashlight. I would use it sparingly since it probably burns through the battery relatively quickly (I did not do any runtime testing). Similarly, the strobe function gives a very bright and rapid strobe effect that is quite annoying and should attract the desired attention. The flashlight has no memory, so it will always start on the low setting when you first turn it on, which is fine with me. Because of the orange peel reflector, the quality of the light beam is very nice, giving a rather diffuse area of illumination without any significant central hot spot. The included diffuser head fits over the head of the flashlight with a friction fit. This nicely diffuses the light causing the flashlight to behave as a miniature lightbulb or candle, great for area work. The flashlight will tail stand without any problems.This flashlight will fill my needs perfectly and I'm quite impressed with what you can get for the money.

It is much brighter than a standard 3D maglite and even comparable to the newer LED maglite's lumens. Those expensive maglite I remember being OK which used expensive 3x D cell batteries and bulbs always died are now beaten by a TINY AAA flashlight company.This light's description should be updated to say it doesn't have a moonlight mode, instead it is a low mode. The 'moonlight' mode is too bright (the 0.1 lumens is false, closer to a 3-5 lumen low mode), but it works well in the daytime. It is cool white probably 6000K color temp, really good quality small flashlight (smaller than the other AAA light I have) that feels VERY well made, and has a hidden strobe so you don't have to cycle through it. It SCREAMS quality, if you haven't purchased one of the nicer LED flashlights before, (if you have the "1000-3000 lumen" lights that are $2, or use an incandescent still) this will KILL those lights.The accessories are nice too. Has a lobster claw clip, and you can use the clip on the brim of a hat for light, I love to use this light for that purpose! The cap also is a hard plastic that snugly fits over the head of the driver.It is great as a tool on your keychain, you have a SUPER BRIGHT beam that kills the maglite of your childhood as tiny as finger. Its like living in the future! You get a lot for the price, it's simply STUPENDOUS!Technology is amazing!! For the nerds: It has no PWM (means no flickering like you see in those CRTs, LCDs and crappy flashlights when you try to take a video).I've uploaded a picture of it compared to other lights I have. The K3 is at the right, the Astrolux A01 is in the center, and the SP10B is on the right. I love the size of the K3. It doesn't look much smaller than the Astrolux but its much lighter and does feel significantly smaller.

If you're after a super small light for edc this is a great option. I put a rechargeable AAA in there and it's plenty bright for anything close up out to about 30-40 feet. I've never seen such a small light that includes a strobe. The UI is low, medium and high by twisting the bezel but if you have it just so, you can press in for momentary on, and a double press sends the strobe. I carry 2 lights, one on each backpack strap as a sort of "headlight" if you will to light my path as I walk. I had 2 Lumentop HLAAA's on there which I thought was perfect as they are AAA right angle flashlights but the way they lay when the backpack is on with one strap, the beam aims too high. I replaced one of the HLAAA's with this K3 and it puts that beam right where I need it. Illuminating dark staircases and walkways the way I hoped the lumentops would have but do not. The clip is reverseable and the light is small enough to wear on your hat. Never buy another gas station gimmick! I really like this light 💘I also look forward to carrying/using this light in the summer time. Most of the time wearing basketball shorts and a t-shirt, most lights are too big and uncomfortable to have on this situation. I'm pretty sure I won't even know the k3 is there. The quality is there as well. I can see I shouldn't have to worry about it getting wet. The included difuser and keychain are a nice touch. The difuser cap just slips right on top and now it's a really bright flameless candle the size of a birthday cake candle roughly, but illuminates an entire room from a single AAA!It does tail stand without a problem. If the lights ever go out, I would hang this from the ceiling on a string with the diffuser cap on and go about my business . Price isn't bad either. I will recommend this light without reservation. I look forward to seeing what's next from nitefox!!!
