The LM10 SST20 flashlight provides instant illumination at the touch of a switch. This immediate response is particularly useful in emergency situations. It uses a TIR lens to form the beam pattern. The LM10 SST20 mode memory eliminates the need to cycle through modes. You don't have to do this each time you turn on the flashlight. It provides convenience and saves time. You can use the strobe function as a self-defense tool. It provides a non-lethal way to deter or disorient attackers.

Lumintop LM10 SST20 specifications

This flashlight can fit in pockets, backpacks, or glove compartments. You can carry it wherever you go.

Body, materials, weight, colors

The flashlight weighs 98 g. It is lightweight and easy to handle for most people. The length of a flashlight can affect how it feels in your hand and how you can grip and maneuver it. Factors can influence the color choice of the flashlight body. These include intended use, environment, personal style, and requirements.

System, LED, lens, reflector

Luminus has established a positive reputation as a reliable LED manufacturer. Warm, white light is generally more comfortable. It's also less harsh on the eyes than cool, white light. The TIR lens makes the LED light collimated. It does this into efficient, well-controlled beams. These beams maximize the usable lumens in the target area. The electronic switches may have a higher chance of standby drain. The rear switch is at the end of the LM10 SST20 flashlight. It helps you hold it securely.

Performance, flux, intensity, throw

With 2800 lm, the LM10 SST20 flashlight will offer a brighter and more powerful beam of light. The LM10 SST20 flashlight has 10000 cd. It provides a much brighter and more intense beam. The throw is the distance in meters at which the flashlight produces a light intensity of 0.25 lux. Candela per lumen (cd/lm) measures a flashlight's beam intensity. It compares this to its total luminous flux or output.

Software, user interface, modes

Anduril software offers many output modes. These include different brightness levels, strobe modes, beacon modes, and more. 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 LM10 SST20's ramping mode is easy to use. It lets you smoothly change the output over its whole range. You can use Strobe for signaling purposes. It can also be used for self-defense or to attract attention in emergency situations. The LM10 SST20's SOS mode produces a specific sequence of long and short flashes. It signals distress or emergency.

Features, battery, protections

The LM10 SST20 flashlight's power source is 1 x 18650 Li-Ion battery. It provides reliable, long-lasting energy for top performance. The LM10 SST20 cannot charge batteries. You may need an external charger to keep your battery going. This flashlight has built-in low voltage protection (LVP). It prevents damage from over-discharge, so it doesn't need protected cells. The thermal protection feature helps prevent overheating. Overheating can harm the flashlight's performance, battery, and safety. The "8" in the IPx8 rating means the highest level of protection. It is against water ingress.

Accessories, package contents

The clip is very helpful. It lets you quickly access your flashlight while keeping your hands free for other tasks. When using spare O-rings, follow the maker's instructions. Use their guidelines for proper installation.

According to the ANSI/NEMA FL1 Standard, we measure the performance of the LM10 SST20 flashlight 30 seconds after switching on the light. The ANSI/NEMA FL1 2009 Standard is a set of flashlight performance guidelines.
