MecArmy Copper X-3 .
Kindly sent to me by the good folks @alphabushcraft to play with the worlds smallest USB rechargeable LED flashlight .
At only 43mm long (shown here next to a CR123 for size comparison) with a 20.7gram weight so great for keyring or neck carry it puts out 130 ANSI lumens on high or 5 lumens on low with a 6 hour runtime .
It charges via a micro USB from laptop, solar power bank etc and takes 1 hour to charge (there’s a handy feature of a glowing LED that changes color as soon as its charged ).
The 10180 battery is also removable and can be charged from another source so easy to carry a charged spare .
I’m not used to twist operated flashlights as generally prefer clicky cap control or push button but the size of it and the usb charging ability and the fact its copper all really appeal .
