Body, materials, weight, colors

The flashlight weighs 75 g. It is lightweight and easy to handle for most people. A balanced flashlight has even weight. It can be more comfortable to hold for longer and reduce hand fatigue.

It is often available in different colors, giving the flashlight a sleek, pro look. Factors can influence the color choice of the flashlight body.

System, LED, lens, reflector

Cree is widely regarded as a reputable LED manufacturer. Warm, white light is generally more comfortable. It's also less harsh on the eyes than cool, white light. The SMO's main job is to focus and project light from the source. It does this into a defined beam pattern. The coating is thin and applied to the lens surface. It cuts reflections and boosts light transmission. Mechanical switches are usually robust. They resist wear and tear and work in many environments. The rear switch is at the end of the T01s flashlight. It helps you hold it securely.

Performance, flux, intensity, throw

With 800 lm, the T01s flashlight will offer a brighter and more powerful beam of light. The T01s flashlight has 13320 cd. It can light objects at greater distances. 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

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.

Features, battery, protections

The T01s flashlight's power source is 1 x 14500 Li-Ion or 1 x AA NiMH battery. It provides reliable, long-lasting energy for top performance. The T01s cannot charge batteries.
