NEBO INSPECTOR RC Pen Light | 360 Lumens, 3 Light Modes, Rechargeable & AAA Battery Powered LED Flashlight, Waterproof, Compact & Durable, Pocket Clip for EDC, Includes USB Charging Cable

So one day a friend and I are swimming in a river. Fast current Whitewater River. We're jumping into a deep spa off a large Rock and my friends loses his partial in the water from hitting the current and bouncing off the rocks. And by partial I mean his entire top teeth. So we attach a 16-in piece of garden hose to the end of a snorkel and he takes my Nebo waterproof inspector pen flashlight with a scuba mask back into the swimming hole and it lights up the bottom of the river enough for him to find his false teeth underwater in the dark. That flashlight was borrowed and never returned more than a year after that. It was still going strong. I am 100% Nebo or nothingBuild quality:I think that's all I need to say

made of good quality material.feels well built when held in the hands.charged with supplied USB cable and functions as intended.light output is very bright for me which is a plus being an auto mechanic.will update how it holds up in a few months.would recommend at the moment for quality, brightness and intended function.

This is a great little flash light that is VERY bright. I have bought it twice for two different people and they also love it very much. Highly recommend.

Much better light than a similar light i bought. Great battery life, plenty bight enough for what i need. Would buy again, but don't think i will any time soon.

Let me just start off by saying this is a great little light! I've only had this light for about a week, but I've owned many a small pocket lights over the years and this is one of the best I've tried! It's got a pretty good anodizing and a very strong body, I dont feel like I need to worry if I drop this from head hight (I'm 6'4") onto concrete. It feels very strong, as does the pocket clip. The clip is fairly long, so I dont feel like I gotta keep checking to make sure I still have it. The clip is removable, which is pretty easy to do. Now that doesn't mean that it will just come off at any moment, it has a very good hold of the light, it doesn't swivel around unnecessarily or feel loose by any means. The light has O ring seals that provide the water proof rating of IP67. They are numerous, with one in the head of the light along with two protecting the micro USB charging port. There are also two O ring seals on the tail cap switch protecting the battery compartment. Which already has a rechargeable battery installed from the factory. Even though it touts rechargeabilty, it will also run off a pair of any standard AAA batteries too, making it quite the versatile little light. The tail cap switch is exposed which can be down side to some, but I feel the the pressure needed to activate the light negates that enough that I dont feel like I need to worry about wasting power unnecessarily. The switch is quite nice, actually it's my favorite thing about the light. It's a really good rubber, it doesn't feel like it'll wear out anytime soon, that also goes for the actual switch underneath. The switch just tacky enough that I'm not gonna slip trying to use it. The little embossed NEBO logo on the switch helps with that as well. It does have momentary with a half push of the switch, which allows you to much more quickly cycle through the three settings.Now that we got all the bells and whistles out of the way, let's talk about what we're all here for... The light!The manufacturer claims it is rated at 360 lumens, which seems about right. Now according to the NEBO website, the light is capable of 360 lumens on HIGH, 120 for LOW and 360 for the STROBE feature. According to the NEBO website, those figures are with the rechargeable battery. Unfortunately the website also says that the light will have lower output with AAA batteries, coming in at just 100 lumens on HIGH. But personally, I'd just buy a couple more rechargeable lipo batteries to have on hand. They're super cheap these days anyways. The light also has what NEBO calls a 4x zoom lens. What this means is that you are able to rotate the head of the flashlight from a wide beam of light (floodlight) to a small beam of bright concentrated light (spotlight). The twist function is simple and intuitive. NEBO claims that the Inspector RC is capable of throwing light out to 125m/410ft (no candela info available).Alright now it's time to talk about the things nobody wants to, but matter most... The negatives!So my biggest gripe is that the light absolutely does not reach out to 125m. Sure the light throws fairly far, but you run out of useable light at about 30m. That's a pretty big difference from the factory's claims... Now that doesn't mean that the light is trash. It's actually quite the opposite, it really is a very good light, just not at any real distance. But with the claims they made about the distance of the beam being pretty unrealistic, that was a pretty big bummer. I like my edc pocket light to be able to reach out into the dark. Since we're talking about the the beam power at distance, let's talk about that 4x zoom... Now I'm just gonna start this bit by saying I've never really been a fan of those focus-able lenses. They never really hold up to my level of reliability. This one isn't too much different. To be honest, I'd rather do away with the focus-abilty on this light, I like it better without it. The light is just much more usable in the wide "floodlight" focusing. When used in the "spotlight" focusing, it just leaves a lot to be desired with both the strength of the light and the useable distance. My only other negative I have and it's really just a small one... The pocket clip is a little bit too flush with the body of the light. I wish it was just a little bit more substantial in what it will clip over without deforming. I wear 5.11 pants everyday, they have an extra bit of fabric laid over the pockets where most people keep their pocket knives to protect the pants from the knives clips. It didn't really fit over my pocket very well, but I'll be the first to admit, it's a pretty minor complaint and most people likely won't have this issue.My final word?Buy it!It's a great little light that will absolutely meet most people's needs for a small pocket friendly light.INSPECTOR RC SPECSSIZEMax Length - 6.5inDiameter - 0.7inPOWERRechargeable battery,High - 360 lumens - 1 hourLow - 120 lumens - 3 hoursStrobe - 360 lumens - 25 minsAAA batteries,High - 100 lumens - 1 hourLow - 30 lumens - 4 hoursStrobe - 100 lumens - 25 minsBATTERY10850 rechargeable lipoAAA batteriesRECHARGEABLEMicro USB (cable included)WATERPROOFIP67 rated

TL;DR got a whole new flashlight as a free replacement when my cap failed. Very bright. Decent battery life. Gets a little hotFirst of all, look how bright it is in my (very) well lit shop. Imagine what this bad boy does in the dark. Hint; it'll light up a whole bedroomWhat drove me to leave a review was the customer service. They call the cap a "bite cap" so naturally I thought I could hold the light by the bite cap with my teeth. However, it won't last too long if you do that. The light still turned on and everything, but using the button with the rubber piece torn was troublesome. I had to call and get a replacement cap.The process was made really simple. I called ACG, the company that owns Nebo, and they said they would send a new cap. I think it took a couple weeks to arrive, but hey, warranty is usually a slow process. Unfortunately, the wrong cap arrived. I called ACG again, let them know what happened. The lady on the phone seemed upset that this happened. She said she would send a whole new light instead. She had me verify that I actually owned the light, and about a week later, my new light was inDefinitely a company worth doing business with. And the light itself is great. I've already attested to its brightness. And I've owned and used this light daily for 6 months. There are 3 modes you can cycle through; but what's cool is that once you turn it off for like 30 seconds, the cycle resets. So each time you turn it on, it'll start on high mode. I had other brand lights that don't do this, and you have to cycle through all the modes every single time you want to use the light. Because of how bright it is, it gets fairly warm. Not really an issue for me. I can use the light pretty heavily through the whole day before it needs a charge. I'm a mechanic and this is basically my main light; and I haven't had to stop in the middle of my day to charge it once. It definitely doesn't last me two days of heavy use, so I just charge it at the end of each day. And being able to switch to AAA batteries in a pinch is really nice. And since I have two of these lights, I put a comparison picture of the batteries in this reviewI don't really have anything bad to say about this light or Nebo or ACG. I hope this review convinces at least one person to buy this light. They really deserve it, and so do you
