I first saw LuminTop Tool reviewed on the Living Surviving channel on YT several years ago. I immediately purchased the black aluminum AAA version, then after a year, I sprung for the fancy copper AAA version, which BTW is a lot heavier and has spent most of its life sitting on my desk for infrequent use. The black aluminum Tool was my EDC's for a long time, but the copper one was just too heavy in the pocket. Both of the pocket clips broke within a few months of ownership, but since they live in my pocket, it didn't matter that much to me. I bought 2 rechargeable Duracell AAA batteries for them which I charge infrequently. The Tools give enough light at 110 lumens to be useful in most normal situations like night walks and looking for things that have fallen on the floor, however, for my work, I use the much smaller Rovy Von A8 650 lumen EDC which is MUCH smaller than the Tool with several more features. I often hold small flashlights in my mouth when working on and in guitars at my shop and the Rovy Von is just much smaller and easier to work with, plus it throws MUCH more light at the expense of having a non-replaceable battery (unlike the Tool battery which is easily replaceable). SUMMARY; The LuminTop Tool is a good reliable EDC for use around the house and maybe for camping. It is not good for working on your car or where strong light is needed. If your eyes are old and need a decent work light, the Tool prolly won't cut it, but the batteries are replaceable and the Tool is definitely tough. The copper version looks great but is very pocket heavy. The pocket clips break way to easily. The Tool is a good all-around EDC, but it's not good in all situations as it rolls off off things and its lower lumen output is not a redeeming feature. Read more

Absolutely love this little flashlight it's my favorite flashlight if it's everywhere it takes abuse and has never failed me. I've owned it for a few years now so I just decided to order another one because my son keeps stealing mine. It's the smallest flashlight I own but it's also the one I use the most. It's a perfect size Read more

I often need a light to see where to place my key on a dark doorway. This small, easy to carry, keychain light does the job. The LED light, two levels of intensity, is bright and handy. The flashlight is water proof in case you drop your keys in water. The flashlight uses a single, easy to find, AAA battery unlke many other small flashlights which require 3 or 4, harder to find button cells. Read more

Easy to figure out where the battery goes (unscrew either end, replace battery, tighten back up) and easy to use without needless strobe or blink modes. The solitary "clicky" switch on the tail controls three brightness levels (that correlate inversely to battery life) and that's it. The LED/head assembly outputs a narrow flood of light with a wide hotspot through a textured plastic lens. The hotspot is not tightly focused, so this light is best for close-up tasks or giving you some light in your immediate vicinity. Although the optical results aren't top notch, given this light's low cost, I find the beam quality acceptable and certainly usable. It's not perfectly smooth and uniform, but it's far from being bad enough to distract from your task. It's a good value for its performance, especially if you prefer having a real thumb switch instead of having to twist the head. And if you want, you CAN use it as a twist-the-head type of light; just leave the switch on and twist away. Of course, the bigger advantage of that setup is that you can loosen the head (or tail, or both) slightly and it will "lock out" the flashlight from turning on with an accidental jab at the tail switch. Low mode is just bright enough for finding the keyhole on your door or walking to the bathroom at night while trying not to wake your partner. It can also run for hour after in low mode, so it's your friend in a power failure (that's a good use for the included diffuser cap). Medium mode is a good general purpose mode for looking inside a computer case or some piece of equipment at work. Also fine for walking around outside at night without falling into a hole or something. And medium mode with the diffuser cap gives you a nice little personal camping lantern for your tent. High mode, even though the light doesn't reach or "throw" very far due to its floodlight-like optics, could be useful for finding your bearings in a large room, or even outdoors, should the lights go out. The problem with high mode is that the battery drains FAST, and the light becomes notably warm within a few minutes. If it begins to overheat, it dials back on the output to protect itself. This tells me that the light isn't really meant to be used on high mode except as needed temporarily. This is very common behavior with the majority of small inexpensive flashlights though, so I'm not going to knock points off this particular light for it. What I like best about this light is how it's essentially a miniature version of any number of larger aluminum LED flashlights, complete with pushbutton switch and multiple brightness levels. This one just happens to fit on a keychain and uses one little AAA battery. Other goodies like the diffuser cap and the pocket/hat clip are icing on the cake. All in all, not bad as long as you don't expect long distance lighting or incredible battery life from one AAA cell. Read more

Die Lampe ist robust und klein genug, sie immer dabei zu haben. Passt ans Schlüsselbund oder auch ohne zu stören in die Hosentasche. Die Helligkeit ist für die normalen, alltäglichen Bedarfe vollkommen ausreichend. Der Betrieb mit AAA-Batterie ist auf Grund deren allgemeiner Verfügbarkeit auch optimal. Ich nutze einen AAA-Akku, aufladbar über USB-C, damit ist sie mit ihrer größeren Schwester, der Lumintop AA 2.0 fast auf Augenhöhe. Ich nutze je nach Bedarf beide Modelle sehr gern. Klare Kaufempfehlung. Read more

This small AAA Flashlight is awesome for EDC and general use. I like the tail switch button due to the tactical feel, positive response and one handed operation. The light modes (low-medium-high) are very useful and output is good for this size of light. The removable carry clip can be reversed for preferred carry option and works great for attaching to a hat or pack. I carry this everyday and use a rechargeable AAA battery with it. The only small issue that I have with it is that when the battery no longer has the juice to power the device, it just goes out, boom. No dimming or warning. Caught me one time and left me in the dark. But luckily I was able to open up the phone flashlight function to temporarily suffice. I really don't mind this, I now know to replace the battery and recharge the one removed once it has been in use for awhile. I like this small flashlight so much that I bought another to keep as a spare for when this one gives out, is lost or is permanently borrowed! Read more
