ライトマニアの間で話題になっているライト到着しました 実測値テストでも公式の65,000ルーメンを凌駕していましたので楽しみにしておりました 明るさの比較には、手持ち最強の ACEBEAM X50 40,000ルーメンを持ち出してみました サイズ比較ではやはりファンが組み込まれたカバーがあるので MS12 Miniのがボディーも太く LEDチップが組み込まれたレンズ部も、X50より1ランク上の大きさがあります 点灯テストでもその性能に偽りなしで、ISO800 1/15 の同条件で撮影した写真では 8000ルーメン超えるうたい文句の、車用LEDライトのハイビームでは比べる対象になりません そこで40000ルーメンのX50を点灯、さすがの明るさですが、手前の柵の下の色がまだわかるのに MS18 Miniでは、その色すらも消え去り、写る景色を全てホワイトアウトさせるほどの明るさでした IMALENT MS12 MINI、の使用方法ですが、充電はテールキャップを緩めて外し そこに見える端子に付属のACアダプターを接続して充電します、結構早い気がします ロックと解除は今までの IMALENT ライトと同じく、消灯時に素早く4回スイッチをクリック スイッチ両脇のインジケーターが点滅してロックと解除を教えてくれますので、確実にロックが必要です ターボ以外でもHiモードなどは間違って点灯すると危険な明るさですので熱対策としても必須 ボディー脇のファンは、明るさによって自動作動しますので特別な操作は不要ですが 圧巻のターボモードでは、ファンが回っていても手持ちで使うのはリスクが高い熱量ですので 付属のランヤードを手首に通して、手袋を使用するのが安全で良いと思います スイッチの押し込みが軽いのでもう少し節度感あれが良いなとか、暗いと見付け辛いので スイッチが光るようになっていると更に使い勝手は良いのにと言うのが不満点です ホルスターもありますので持ち運びも可能ですが、ターボを多用する時の熱に耐えられるよう キャリングハンドル迄付いていればもっと安心して使えますし、今後更に期待してます それにしても片手サイズでこの明るさは…フラッシュライトの進化は末恐ろしいですね Read more

This is honestly the best torch in the world. Seriously do yourself a favour and pick one of these up, you will not regret it at all. It's an absolute beast. Read more

Una linterna de mucho brillo, con una iluminación muy amplia, un poco pesada, la ventilación es perfecta aunque en su máximo brillo llega a calentar bastante, se necesitaría guantes. Por su precio debiera de tener opción de linterna lanzadera también para proyectar el haz de luz a distancia lejana, dudo el alcance de 1036 metros. Read more

Luce molto potente, veramente divertente. Prestate attenzione al calore che emana ben costruita un vero gioiellino. Read more

I live in a rural area, and spend a lot of time hiking and walking at night where there are no streetlights whatsoever. On nights without a full moon, it is as close to pitch black as is possible. As a result, I'm really into collecting bright flashlights, as I absolutely need the best I can get when I am out in the field. I have a lot of experience with various high end flashlights. This one is my every night carry now. Simply stated, there isn't another flashlight on the market currently that offers this degree of brightness in a small package. It is easy to carry, isn't too heavy, and is incredibly bright. If you genuinely need more than 65,000 lumens for your turbo mode, I would be curious what you are using your flashlight for. Because this is as bright as I could ever ask for. I have used Imalent's top of the line product that boasts a 200,000 lumen turbo mode. What I can tell you from using flashlights at the top stratosphere of the brightness market, is that there is diminishing returns on brightness. I don't find that 200,000 lumens is all that much brighter to the eye than 65,000 lumens. And when you consider that the 200K flashlight weighs nearly 7 pounds, it is downright and utterly remarkable that a flashlight of this size exists and puts out 65,000 lumens. Now, what you need to know is that turbo mode only lasts for up to 45 seconds total on a charge. After that, you won't have access to it. Where this flashlight really shines (sorry, had to) is it's ability to consistently put out roughly 13,000 lumens of over 40 minutes. That is crazy. 13,000 lumens is incredibly bright to have for that kind of time in such a small package. And being able to put out 5,000 lumens for over an hour is crazy, as well. 25,000 lumens is truly crazy bright to have for 3 minutes. Then you consider that this flashlight is small. It's not tiny, but it is small. It is a fraction of the size of the larger Imalent flashlights which put out 6 figure lumens in turbo. I find it completely comfortable to carry for over an hour, and that's not even remotely true for the bigger and brighter flashlights. This flashlight is actually practical, and that's why I love it. I actually look forward to carrying it every night. As for the size, I have roughly average size hands for an American man, and I am not bothered by the size. I don't feel the need to switch hands while using it for 1-2 hours. For reference, I cannot touch my thumb to middle finger while holding it, so it is pretty girthy and robust. But not too much so. It does get hot when you use it on the higher modes, so I wear a light glove while carrying it. Basically the thinnest Arc'Teryx liner glove, and the heat isn't a problem for me. But I woudn't use this without a glove on anything above the lowest modes. 45 seconds on Turbo, and it does get HOT. The fans are a bit loud, but not so loud that it bothers me. And you can use this on 3,000 lumen mode without the fans, and for most applications that's bright enough for consistent use. I'd compare the fan noise to a late 90s/early 2000s computer. People have complained about the button being hard to find. It's not really an issue for me, but they could have raised it a bit to make it easier to find in complete darkness. But how often am I starting this up in complete darkness? Never, really. This also charges crazy fast. About 4 times as fast as my next favorite flashlight in this size category. A flashlight that is less than 1/3rd as bright on turbo, and has none of the capabilities between 3,000 and 25,000 lumens. Granted, it weighs half what this weighs. But I have no issues with the size or weight of this flashlight. It's right within the range of comfortable carry for me. I don't see myself replacing this for my nightly hike for a while. Hopefully Imalent builds upon the impressive work they've done here, but after investing a lot of money into this one, I don't need that to happen too soon. There is a moonlight mode that can be accessed by triple clicking the power button. TL/DR: Incredible output for the size. A truly bright flashlight in every sense, and actually practical for nightly carry for over an hour at a time. There is nothing else on the market that offers this kind of max brightness, and sustained brightness in such a small, easy to carry format. Read more
