INTERNOVASentinel 2000 Lumen Rechargeable Flashlight 10.5 Inches - LED Flashlight Includes USB Cord & Magnetic Sealed Gift Box

Do you remember those old school baton like flashlights that used all those C and or D batteries? Well this flashlight is basically the cool super advanced and upgraded version of those.Build Quality:This flashlight is extremely well designed and heavy duty. When I held this flashlight, I could not help but notice how well constructed it was.The body of this flashlight is made from a high grade of aluminum. The aluminum along the handle of this flashlight, instead of just being smooth metal, has a textured finish that helps me to keep a good grip on it.The power button feels very durable and nice to the touch. It is also very responsive. Something that really stood out to me is the location of the micro usb charge port. Instead of having the charge port exposed and having a typical rubber plug to cover over the usb slot when it is not in use, this flashlight uses a built in sleeve at the neck that unscrews down to reveal and allow access to the port and it screws up into a o-ring to cover and protect the usb port when it is not in use.Brightness:Unbelievably bright! While using this light at my in laws house, my father-in-law was in awe at the light output from this flashlight. He said that this had to be the brightest flashlight that he had ever seen and I would definitely have to agree with him.At night, I took this light outside and pointed it at the sky, a few trees, down our street and etc. This lit up things that I pointed at like a small search light. I had this light pointed at me and it virtually made a wall of light that I could not see past. As a side note, I also shined this light at my nosey neighbor after he asked me what I was doing while I was testing out this light. He also made mention regarding the high brightness of this flashlight.Features:There are 5 lighting modes on this flashlight: high, medium, low, strobe, and sos strobe.When the flashlight power button is pressed once, the light comes on in the high beam setting. When the power button is pressed again, the light changes to the medium beam. When the power button is pressed on last time, the light changes to the low beam.Holding the power button for a few seconds activates the strobe beam function and pressing the button once more activates the sos strobe beam.Power:There are two rechargeable 2600mAh 3.7 volt (18650) batteries that powers this flashlight. These batteries are replaceable and are charged while inside the flashlight via the built-in micro usb port.I did notice that there is a red light that comes on near the usb port that let's me know that it is charging. Once the flashlight is done charging the light turns green.I did test one night, because was curious, to see how long this flashlight would actually stay on so I turned the flashlight onto the highest beam and and just let it run. After 2 hours and 42 minutes it was still going strong so I gave up and went to bed.This flashlight is definitely the real deal! It brings to the table everything that a flashlight should have: durability, weather resistance, brightness, portability, and dependability.Is it wrong that I like this flashlight so much? Well done Internova!

The BAD:This flashlight does lack "zoom" and a powerbank feature, which some comparable models do have. I used to think the whole zoom thing was a gimmick, but it actually extends the visible distance of the flashlight a lot. This flashlight is super bright, but it would look even brighter if you could zoom it a little.You also can't use "flat top" 18650 batteries. This flashlight does come with two 18650 batteries but I have a bunch of flat top ones laying around, so it would've been nice to be able to use those.The GOOD:It's built like a tank and seems durable. The charging port is covered by a screw-on cover with an O-ring to keep it water tight. (I show this in the beginning of the video included with this review.) This seems much more secure than those flashlights with the little rubber flap covers.The battery life seems great. I walked around outside, multiple nights in a row for a half hour each time and haven't needed to charge it yet.It's actually bright. This flashlight is actually super bright. I believe their claim stating you could see it across 3 football fields. You can see 100 meters easily. (Also tested in my video). I think if this had a zoom, it'd easily be the brightest flashlight of the few I've tested recently.This is gonna sound dumb, but my favorite feature of this flashlight is the way they programmed the button! It's single clicks to go from brightest, to medium to dim. Then if you click and hold, it goes to strobe and S.o.s mode. You don't have to cycle through 5 to 8 different modes just to go from bright to dim to bright again. I know this doesn't seem like a big deal but if I'm out walking at night and a car is coming, I always dim the light to avoid hurting drivers eyes. When doing this, switching through a bunch of modes gets annoying fast.Summary/Overall Thoughts:I don't think this takes the spot for my "favorite" flashlight. It's a very good flashlight though and I'd recommend it if you're looking for a solid flashlight with a decent battery life. It'd be great to take on walks with you too. You could probably even use this thing as a weapon in an emergency if you needed to? It is built very well.If this had zoom, it'd probably be my favorite all around flashlight.

I have many good LED flashlights and this one is one of the best I've owned. I can't speak to exactly how many lumens it produces, and that is not stated in the product details, but I can't say it's one of the brightest I have.It has a very nice design and is very solid. It has a good weight to it and feels good in the hand. The design is unique to any I've seen thus far in that the USB charging port in conceals under a ring that you unscrew just below the head of the flashlight. So, once you're done charging and screw that ring closed it gives a very sleek appearance and protects the charging port.Operation is also very simple, with just one button. It always turns on to the brightest settings, with subsequent presses to reduce the brightness to medium or low, if pressed within maybe 5 seconds or so after turning it on. If you press the button later, it turns the flashlight off, without having to cycle turn the brightness levels. It's simple and intuitive.It came in a nice, sturdy box with magnetic closure and included the two batteries and micro-USB charging cable.It's pretty close to perfect. The only thing I'd wish for to improve it would be USB-C instead of micro (seriously, why are companies still making micro-USB stuff when type-C is so much better.Only other thing of note is that when I plugged the flashlight in to charge it the indicator light was solid green, which the instructions state indicates full charge. This was out of the box, so I figured the batteries would not be fully charged. I then used the flashlight for a while, leaving it on high for a while. Plugged in and still get solid green. I then took the batteries out and put them in my nighthawk charger, which showed that they were only at 4.09V and that charger brought them back up to 4.20V. So, I'm not too certain that the built-in charger works properly. Time will tell, I guess, but I feel that it should have allowed the batteries to fully charge.All things considered, this is one of my favorite flashlights and I would definitely recommend it.

I wish every product was this easy to set-up and use. I was immediately impressed by how heavy and well-made this flashlight is. It is solidly constructed with what's described as a brushed aircraft grade aluminum alloy finish and a water-resistant casing. The openings that are necessary for battery placement and for charging the two high-capacity rechargeable Lithium 18650 Batteries require unscrewing sealed enclosures that seem impregnable. The charging port is located just below the orange power button and the protective ring is easy to unscrew, revealing the port.My flashlight came fully charged and charging it has been relatively fast when necessary (I haven't allowed the batteries to fully discharge yet, so every recharging has only been partial). The two lithium 18650 batteries are very large and powerful, which may explain something that you will quickly discover when using this flashlight. The metal casing surrounding the batteries and behind the bulb will begin to warm-up almost instantly. Continued usage of the flashlight will result in the front of the flashlight getting quite warm. I attribute this to the intensity of the light and the power that's necessary to create it.Producing an intense, rather wide circular beam whose extent I estimate to around 900-1000 feet, this is a powerful torch. Soft-pressing the power button cycles through the three different strengths, beginning with high, then medium and low. Long-pressing for three seconds activates the strobe and SOS modes. This flashlight is simple and intuitive to use. The design is sleek with an easy-to-grip handle. This is an excellent flashlight, one of the best that I've ever used.

This flashlight is really heavy, especially when compared to most LED flashlights. The weight reminds me of a 4 D-Cell MagLight, though this is slimmer and not as long.The overall feel when I pick it up reminds me of a Jedi picking up a lightsaber.The light quality is superb, very white and bright!The charging port is very well concealed and I had to look over the instructions twice before I located it.The batteries, well, I’ve never seen a flashlight battery this long :) I’m very glad that it comes with the batteries and that they are rechargeable.I’ve included some photographs and a couple of videos to show it off.We’ll see if it holds up to the MSRP
