Product ReviewsThruNite Archer 2a V3 Cool White Flashlight - Black

Thrunite Archer 2A V3 and Update

Bright, light and well constructed. Control is intuitive through side mounted button. If you are looking for an AA powered light as an alternative to a 18650/123A light you need look no further. The only negative, and this is individual preference, is the side mounted control. When in hand in the small light carry position with thumb on the butt accessing the side switch is not as convenient as control via the butt power button however this can be remediated by use of the memory feature whereby the light remembers the previous brightness level and returns to it upon activation.

Addendum: After purchasing the Archer 2A V3 I bought the 1A (single AA size version) as well. Now THAT is a winner. The 2A version is limited to AA batteries because of the voltage limitation, not so the 1A version. Pop in a 16340 or RCR123 and look out! It is brighter than the 2A version and almost half the size.Read full review...

Best Flashlight Ever

Win: Works properly with NiMh cells.
Win: No need to disassemble an internal carrier to change battery.
Win: The separate Power and Mode buttons are easy and efficient to use. No need to cycle through every possible setting just to turn it off.
Win: Adjustable brightness settings make the most of battery charge.
Win: The highest brightness setting is really bright.
Win: The power switch works properly. The light works when I need it and does not suffer from the “Duracell dead battery” effect.
Oops: The O-ring seal works well but the endcap does loosen occasionally, causing the annoying “Maglite Flicker”.
This is a damn fine tool. Thank you for it.Read full review...

Tough pocket light!

Been using at work for 3 weeks every night, batteries holding up nicely. Dropped it on asphalt, no problems, works flawlessly. I really like it and probably will get another one.

good light

I Use it at work in pretty rough conditions and it has taken some good drops without it going out or having to shake it like cheaper lights and it holds battery power for a long time

Very good performance in a small package.

Thin, lightweight, and with a handy pocket clip. Easy to use. The brightest of the 4 choices is very bright! The beam intensity varies little over a 5 degree cone, then falls off, but is still usable to maybe 30 degrees.

A design modification for future consideration would be a sliding lens that could adjust the beam from flood to narrow spot.Read full review...

A very good inexpensive light

I am a firefighter and I use this light for inspections. I carry it every day and so far it hasn't had any problems. It's very bright, small and lightweight, it does have multiple settings, and it is waterproof. I have recommended it to my friends and I refer to it as a disposable light bc at the price I purchased it, if I lost it or dropped it from some of the heights I work at, it's not an expensive loss, like an overpriced light.

I don't do many reviews but this light has impressed me and deserves it.Read full review...
