I let mine charge for 3 hours before using it. Still was charging. Went hunting with it last night. On turbo mode it’s like having a light bar on a truck.
This is an smazing flashlight!! I have no complaints about it except the price 😂😂. But its very good quality . Even at night on the highest beam, with my kitchen lights on, it makes my kitchen lit up as if the sun was shining in. Awesome flashlight!!!
@@rodezell2563 Did the 18K not provide you with comprehensive instructions? Or, did you elect not to read them? My 12K came in beautiful packaging, plus, a small instruction leaflet-type thing. It has the TURBO feature, accessed the same way.
@HughJorgan09 I don't need no stinking instructions. Lol. After I opened it up and charged it, I realized that the instructions were printed on the back cover. It didn't come with a separate print out.
@@rodezell2563Wonder if that is something specific to the Davinci line then? I don't believe that the 12K is a Davinci. Still, for the price, I would expect something more, kinda. But, the flashlight's what we're paying for, and, I'll still be buying one, in the not-too-distant future...once it drops into the $125-150 range. I positively LOVE the light-up-the-night thing, and, I work an overnight Security shift, so, it has definitely come in handy.
You might say that, but, in actuality, it really depends on your needs, as to whether it would be considered over-priced or not. Like one of the other responses noted, for actual 18K Lumens, AND, it being a quality, well-made product, it isn't o'priced compared to any of its competitors of equal value & power. And, that's TODAY'S market. While, I'm going to wait on the price to come down, see where it's at around the holidays, New Years, I am definitely going to purchase this one, at some point. I currently own the NEBO 12K, and, it has more than paid for itself, and, fulfilled my expectations for it. I work Security, and, while I don't need to utilize its extreme power a lot of the time, when I DO need it, it has performed like a champ.
