Body, materials, weight, colors

This 587.8 g flashlight is quite heavy for a handheld flashlight. A smaller flashlight is easier to carry in a pocket, bag, or pouch. This makes it more convenient for everyday use or when you're on the go. The aluminium body of the X65 Mini has excellent thermal conductivity. This means it can effectively dissipate heat generated by the flashlight's components. The HAIII process makes a hard and wear-resistant surface on the aluminum. This makes it more resistant to scratches, abrasions, and impacts. The X65 Mini flashlight comes in a stylish black color.

System, LED, lens, reflector

Cree is a US-based LED manufacturer. It is well-regarded for its high-quality products and innovation in lighting. Color temperature is a characteristic of light. It is used to quantify the color appearance of light sources. The X65 Mini has a smooth reflector. The right reflector focuses light well. It gives you a better hotspot, and it throws better.

Performance, flux, intensity, throw

The flashlight has 12000 lm, this is an extremely high lumen output. It offers a very bright and powerful beam of light. 492000 cd represents an extraordinarily high level of brightness. The throw is the distance in meters at which the flashlight produces a light intensity of 0.25 lux. The cd/lm factor is the candela-to-lumen ratio. It shows how concentrated a light source's output is.

Software, user interface, modes

A flashlight's modes are different output settings or brightness levels. They can be chosen to meet different needs and preferences. The flashlight has mode memory. It remembers the mode you were using when the light was last turned off. It stays in that mode when you turn it on again. The X65 Mini is tactical strobe ready.
