The TN36 flashlight is a bit heavy, its weight is 427 g. It's important to consider the intended use and personal comfort when choosing a flashlight of this weight. The length of a flashlight can affect how it feels in your hand and how you can grip and maneuver it. A longer flashlight may provide a more substantial grip, making it easier to hold and control, especially if you have larger hands. Aluminium is a lightweight material, which is beneficial for TN36 flashlight.

HAIII coating is widely used in the flashlight industry due to its durability, corrosion resistance, improved grip, and aesthetic appeal. This flashlight comes in a sleek black color option.

System

Emitter	3 x Cree XHP70.2 LEDs
Color temperature	5000 K, 6500 K
Reflector	OP
Lens	AR coated glass
Switch	electronic side

The emitter of TN36 manufactured by Cree, a US-based LED manufacturing company. Cree is a well-regarded LED manufacturer known for its high-quality products and innovation in the lighting industry. Color temperature is a characteristic of light. It is measured in units called Kelvin (K) and is used to quantify the color appearance of light sources, particularly white light. The TN36 uses orange peel (OP) textured reflector. The orange peel (OP) reflector is a specific type of reflector commonly used in flashlights. It is named after its distinctive textured surface, which resembles the skin of an orange.

The AR coating of the lens helps to mitigate these reflections by altering the refractive index of the lens surface. The TN36 utilizes electronic switch. Electronic switches on flashlights provide a range of advantages and additional features compared to mechanical switches.

Performance

Flux	11000 lm
Intensity	31140 cd
Throw	353 m
CD/LM factor	2.83

With 11000 lm, the TN36 flashlight will provide an exceptionally intense and blindingly bright beam of light. It can illuminate large areas, vast outdoor spaces, or even serve as a temporary spotlight in the darkest conditions. The TN36 flashlight with 31140 cd has an extended throw distance, allowing you to illuminate objects or areas at greater distances. This can be advantageous for outdoor activities, search and rescue operations, or scenarios where long-range visibility is required.

The throw distance refers to the maximum distance at which the flashlight can effectively illuminate an object or target. The stated throw distance typically indicates the point at which the brightness falls below a specified threshold, such as 0.25 lux. The candela per lumen (cd/lm) ratio can be used to determine if a flashlight has a spot or flood type beam. Well-focused spot beams can be over 100 cd/lm, tactical flashlights are typically between 20-100 cd/lm, and work lights are less than 10 cd/lm.

Software

Modes	4 modes
Mode memory	yes
Ramping mode	no
Strobe	yes
SOS/Beacon	no

Modes on a flashlight refer to different output settings or levels of brightness that can be selected to suit different needs and preferences. The TN36 has mode memory. Mode memory means that the flashlight will remember the mode you were using when the light was last turned off, and when you turn it on again. The TN36 is tactical strobe ready. The strobe light is disorienting to the person it is aimed at which makes it difficult for them to concentrate.
