NEBO Redline Torchy 2K

Nice flashlight for the car. Using it for Uber Eats deliveries at night. Great build quality. I've found with Nebo lights not to drop them and they last a long time. The LEDs sometimes get a little "blinky" if you abuse them. Great for the price point. Charges quick. Bright. Not too heavy.

Very pricey, but excellent item, I would love to see them go on sale

Very bright and charges relatively quickly. Small enough for an EDC (pocket carry) but large enough to give that “flood of illumination” that you would get from larger devices. Obviously, it doesn’t last for hours of use since it is small but it performs beyond my expectation.

Pros: Strong pocket clip, very bright for it's small size, waterproof, solid construction. Cons: Proprietary charging cable (not USB), counterintuitive power button, magnet is also the charging port - not ideal for dirty work, "very bright" only in turbo mode and bulb gets hot, full aluminum construction - not ideal for cold days, might be too small for big hands, not for tactical use. ----- Overall decent but feels like it was designed by engineers who never used a torch in the real world.

OK, so it’s time I leave you for this. I bought this flashlight a year ago at the end of January and at the time of writing this, it is March the battery that it comes with has finally come to a point where it’s not really holding a charge very long. That’s totally fine and to be expected. I also managed to not lose or destroy the flashlight, which is another huge plus this has been my every day carry since I’ve bought it and I love it. The charging is a little weird. I’m not crazy about it, but it is nifty and I still dig it so now I just ordered myself some replacement batteries, which funny enough, have a larger capacity than what originally came with it. Not to say that what it comes with, isn’t good, because it originally lasted me several days with moderate use now I think it’ll just take longer to deplete lol. TLDR; This is a great flashlight, it is definitely durable, and I am a great example of testing durability lol. 11/10

Update to previous review of disappointing product: I have tried to use and like this flashlight because it was kind of expensive and it has a good feel. After using this light for about a year, I’d like to add some complaints. The power button is on the side and always gets pressed in my pocket, so when I get around to using it, the battery is already low and only lasts a short time. The base unscrews and this creates weird glitches like light modes changing spontaneously, light turning off, and unexpected button push results. When the battery is low, the flashlight flickers a lot, making what little time you have left before complete battery failure totally wasted. I’m pretty sure the charging system has failed. Even when I’ve charged it all night, longevity isn’t what I think it should be. Additionally, the power button now flashes constantly, indicating some problem, which I think is low battery, based on the flashlight’s low battery response when it was newer. Anyway, totally done with this light. Bummed because I thought Nebo was a good brand, as I’ve had very good luck with them in the past. Not this model. ——— Original review: I bought this flashlight for its size. It’s just right to fit in my front pants pocket. The light works pretty well, though there is some flickering which doesn’t seem to be due to anything I can correct. I don’t think there is anything particularly special about this light, which is disappointing as it cost almost $40. It has 3 brightness levels and a strobe effect. That’s it. One charge seems to last about 2 to 2.5 hours on the low brightness level, which is the only one I can really use because the mid and high brightnesses are too bright and reflective for me when looking into the interior of stainless steel machine casings. Additionally, I think L-Ion technology is somewhat limited. When your rechargeable flashlight dies, you have to recharge it, which takes time during which you can’t use the light. Alkaline batteries can be replaced and you’re back in business in a minute. Also, it dies all at once, unlike an alkaline battery, which fades out gradually, allowing you a chance to squeeze out a few extra tasks. Possibly the least functional feature of this flashlight is the proprietary charging system. It’s a standard USB plug on the power source end and on the end you connect to the flashlight there is a magnet that matches the shape of the bottom of the flashlight. It’s a neat idea, but the reason product manufacturers use Mini USB or USB C is because they are universally accepted, meaning you can use any cord you have at hand. With this magnet charger, if you don’t have the cord, you’re out of luck. On top of that, the magnet is not very strong and the slightest bump dislodges it and if you don’t notice while you’re on the way to your next job, well you’re out of luck again. You can see in the pic that I have a few things with cords. The flashlight cord is the black one and you can see that it would be easy to knock off the little magnet base charger. In summary, this is just a standard issue flashlight thats best feature is its hefty weight and small size. These in combination make for a real nice fist pack, if you ever find yourself in need of a little extra oomph to back up your convictions. Good luck and enjoy!

Great price super bright easy to charge and light wait for your pocket

Something good built small this flashlight is unbelievably wonderful the light magnitude on it is insane it is very bright and efficient charges easily and a short amount of time and holds the charge for a good amount of time

This flashlight is AMAZING. It shoots 2000 Lumens from such a compact light. Definitely good value for the money. It is also very durable. Great product!

cumple con todo lo mencionado en general es muy buena linterna, lo unico es que la pintura se maltrata mucho

Only thing missing is the ability to focus beam. But I’ve learned to live without that feature. I bought ten more. Plan to give them out over the holidays.

Excelente linterna el único detalle es que el botón de encendido no enciende de color naranja y por lo tanto no indica el estado de la batería puede que solo sea defecto en la mía pero decidí no realizar la devolución.

As shown, it's smaller than expected and the rated battery life seems low when it's on high... Will update if unexpectedly bad battery.
