Headlamp Rechargeable - 1000 Lumen LED USB Rechargeable Headlight - IPX4 Waterproof Head Lamp with Bright 60 ft Flashlight Beam - Hiking & Outdoor Camping Gear, Black - LED Headlamp

First Misleading Reviews - unfortunately well intentioned reviewers misinterpret technical spec documents and make mistakes that tear apart good products like this one. This is in response to Kimberly's Review of the specs included with the SLONIK S25 model 1,000 Lumen, dual LED Headlamp, and the product itself & the packaging, accessories , etc.. First I can understand and even empathize with her frustration as to why more electronics aren't made in USA and the relatively lower cost of products made in Asia, some of those products/companies are not reliable & I too have found incorrect or exaggerated specs. BUT in this case - I found SLONIK to be Extremely reliable, customer service oriented, products r very well made, excellent craftsmanship, name brand parts & reliable operation - their instructions are EXCELLENT, clear & concise including warranty information, specs & contact info. Top 10% IMHO as compared to similar electronics I purchased on Amazon in past 10 years. That said - the "False Advertising Claim" you made re: the pair of CREE X-Lamp model XP-G2 LEDs (Proudly stated, BTW, that the LEDs are Made in America!! - SLONIK's primary selling point!).. The Flux output you refer too on Cree's website (pages 6-14) is clearly stated as the "Minimum Luminous Flux @ 85 C & (more importantly!!) @ 350 mA". - If you go to page 17, you'll find a Table - "Relative Flux vs Current" (@ 85 C) for both the Standard and High Efficacy versions of this same LED - the Standard version can handle up to 1500 mAh batteries, the Hi-Efficacy up to 2000 mAh. At 350 mAh - we see it intersects @ 100% - just like you said - if battery was a 3.7V @ 350mAh then Flux (lumens) would be 100% x 164 lm = 164 lumens per LED x 2= 328 lm output from both LEDs. BUT we have a 2200mAh battery - look at the graph - @ 1000mAh it is 250% x164 = 410 each LED (820 lm total) @ 1500 mAh (max for standard Cree XPG-2) = 340% x 164 = 557 lm x 2 LEDs = 1114 lm Total - MORE than Spec claims and well within 2200mah/3.7V battery rating - spec claims that at this level (assuming it is the 100% mode) - you'll get 4 hours before recharge (battery dissipates 8.14 watts/hour, or max of 2.2 hours running full load, @ 1500mah/3.7V load - battery will dissipate 5.55 Watts/hr. My quick math in my head says we should get around 3.5 hours of battery at 100% brightness setting, spec says "4 hours" at 100% running at 10 watts (each LED is rated at max 5V/1A or 5 Watts x 2 = 10 Watts). Anyway - according to Slonik's spec and Cree's Data Sheet for the LED & battery capacity chart (assuming all is perfect - NEVER IS) the Lumens STATED in SLONIK's Spec = 1000 lm for 2 x CREE XPG-2 Standard Version is CORRECT as math and Specs say output @ 1500mah = 1114 lm - Close enough - Color Temp - Depends which model CREE they used - I would guess in Daylight/Cool White range where LED has higher Flux in that 4200-8000 Kelvin range rather than warm white below 4000 Kelvin range. In closing - after about 6 weeks using this light almost everyday with my head and light stuck in 9.5" ceiling holes cut for 4 new Dolby Atmos speakers and new 6" smart Recessed lights (x 8). The storage case, instructions and battery are IMO high end for any price-range, charge cable and integrated mini-USB port - is flimsy - not because SLONIK is bad - that mini USB is awful in general it is unreliable and should be discontinued on any equipment (cell phones included) - it's garbage and a bad idea - if u r careful with it it's fine - get a higher quality cable - I have a spare external 18650 floor charger - I use it for my LED flashlights - BTW flat top battery that SLONIK uses has no connection troubles in my external charge (no electrical contact issues because of small positive nipple on the battery - nipple is fine just like it is). I typically set headlamp on lowest or 2nd lowest setting for my purposes - electronics repair, construction projects, outdoor dark night activities - sneaking around at night & BBQ-ing in the dark. Have not found a practical use for "Full Power" Yet - but man is it bright - and the combo "Spot" & "Flood" HQ lenses are excellent. Charges fully in less than 90 minutes - my only minor complaint is it does get warm if u wear it directly on exposed skin - like my skull/forehead - need to turn it off between "jobs".Band is very soft & comfortable, easy to adjust. In summary, the negative review re: Lumen Output was a simple MISUNDERSTANDING of how CREE's LED Flux output is calculated - & I think some folks paid lots of $$$$ for other "BRANDS" that are same as this & R looking for a "Flaw" in this product that just isn't there.

Absolutely fantastic head torch. Reliable, bright, Battery lasts very well. Its the only head torch that clips to a hard hat well and is bright. It's so good I bought 3 now, 2 for me one for my brother.

I was a little skeptical buying a 30+ dollar headlamp when I've bought several in the 5 dollar range from Amazon that (I thought) worked fine. But this thing is definitely in a different class. The picture shows a cheapo Energizer headlamp next to the the SLONIK headlamp, both on high. The beams are placed right next to each other. you probably can't even make out the energizer over the Slonik and the ambient light coming through the curtains. Brightness aside.... it also has some nice features. The head strap easily snaps on/off of the lamp body. The lamp also rotates inside of the head mount so you can point it at whatever angle you prefer. Rechargeable.. is a thing. I never know whether to call it a plus or a minus. Its definitely not a pro to have to take it off and recharge it for awhile if you're camping and it's the middle of the night and you don't have any power bricks or what have you nearby. but it is nice to know you could use it forever (basically) if you had a solar usb charger and no batteries. So it will be a pro or a con depending on the situation and intended usage. Most likely, it will normally be a pro. I prefer the method of cycling modes by holding down the button to most headlamps I have which cycle with every button press. It's nice to not have to go through the obnoxious strobe just to turn it off. I wish that it would remember the last mode you were on and use that instead of defaulting to medium and having to press the button twice to get to high. Nice aluminum (maybe?) body. feels weighty in the hand. Might not be great for backpacking as it is a bit more substantial than a cheaper (or perhaps significantly more expensive) all plastic alternative like the energizer. Strap is comfortable and tightness is very easily adjusted without taking it off and going through a process of trial and error. *Update - Still love this headlamp. Use it all the time. The battery that came with it is still working pretty well. I am pretty sure I still get the advertised 8 hours if not more. I bought an Ultrafire flashlight mainly for the 4 18650 batteries that it came with for 20 bucks. Bring an extra on a camping trip and you'll be good for a weekend. I bought another one last week for my wife or guests at the camp. It's slightly different from my original. 1. The SLONIK branding is everywhere. On the head band.. on the light. There were no words anywhere on my original. 2. The brightness is almost exactly equal. The light color is more white on the original but noticeably unless you have them side by side. 3. The headband seems more "locked in place" than the original which will SLOWLY work itself loose. They are both incredibly easy to adjust 4. The one difference that I'm not sure I'm too fond of is that the new one goes to 100 percent brightest when you turn it on. Whereas the other was on "low" when you turn it on. I'll end up using battery quicker on the new one since I don't typically change the brightness on the original simply because of the hassle of the extra button push. I'll do the same thing here. So.. I'll be using it on high by default instead of low. No big deal, but that is the only main difference I've noticed. Even though it approximately 6 times more expensive than my other head lamps, They were definitely worth the price.

I own a lot of these little headlamps, sort of a hobby of mine to hunt for the perfect one. This one I really like. First, the only reason I didn’t give this a 5 star rating was because it claims to me 1000 lumens which it is not. I would approximate it at 400 lumens when I compare it to my other headlamps, which is pretty powerful, but not what’s advertised Other than that, this SLONIC has a lot of things going for it - including quality lightweight aluminum construction, simple design with one large button that allows user to turn it on/off easily even with winter gloves, few moving parts to break down, and a easy way to toggle thru the 5 light power levels by just holding down on the power button until it gets to the level u prefer. The light itself is more of a flood light vs a narrow spot light, making it great for night XC skiing or working around camp. If you want something to shine across a football field this isn’t your light, but you can light up a nice wide 30 yard span around you. Lower power modes allow you to read or work up close without blinding you. The SLONIC runs on a single 18650 battery that has lasts long (I skied for 4 hours on medium to high power and didn’t notice any battery decline). My battery was labeled 2200 MaH. Also, the18650 batteries from my other devices also worked in this, so if you are nervous about battery life u can just pack one more battery and probably get 20 hours of light. In short, this is a quality flashlight that I definitely would recommend. It seems durable,well designed and gives a nice wide beam of light, just don’t expect 1000 lumens.

I work in the marine field, and needed a headlamp that's really robust and bright. This one checks both the boxes. This is just blindly bright!! Would recommend this to anyone since its build is really solid and it can take a beating.
