In this video, we compare the P70 flashlight (brightest flashlight in the world) to the Surefire g2x and Duracell flashlight. Update! 3 years later the P70 is dead and in the trash. The surefire is still kicking and used everyday!
How much is the sure fire version comparable to this question mark I'm in the market for a light like this And not to be a Dick but you do get what you pay for LOLI think I checked this out at 38 bucks 3 years is in bed for a $38 light I had a $100 nightcore last 12 years I've been doing a lot of research and so far the best EDC pocket budget light I found is the woman I think it's the TL50 blows the night core out of the water and power but does not have the strobe and it does have an annoying Mode of having to go through the different powers to get too high but I think I found what they're talking about when you can so call program it Anyway I need something That is going to last I was going to get another nightcore but begins that they have a lifetime warranty and they're in China which I did not know they will not pay shipping to and from which is $20 almost each way no shot so that's my relationship with them I paid a 100 bucks and got 12 years out of the light the light I have now works great it's just the point that it does not have a strobe I do not want to use my handgun to strove someone if I have to If that ever comes out of the holster with any type of lighter strobing there's gonna be commands barked and then gun fire hopefully never I'm looking for something that's not going to break the bank but will have the strobe the flood and the Strobe whatever they're called I'll check into the sure fire but I know their weapon lights are ridiculously priced and I'm sure there are good lights I only know of one model my buddy has and unfortunately I got destroyed by a eBay they crossbow laser light combo by Warrior land tactical light 850 Lillman what it claims I put it up next to my 1200 lm that I know for a fact is 1200 lm flashlight the throw is further on the flashlight but the flood on the gunlight and the search beam or whatever is perfect an ideal for a handgun and unlike my buddy's sure fire I believe that's what he has one of them he also has a Tl R something that is destroyed It's just after saying a if you break down the price I paid a $100 for the combo it was on a whim and it came with ALED battery indicator magnetically rechargeable 850 lm light with a laser you can use the laser the light or the light and laser and a Glock holster which I've seen better but 49 debucks for the both I would say if you split the price and have $45 this light has proven over and over again 2 out perform a lot of my friends high-powered gun lights so I'm assume minutes the same thing with Flashlight If you know anything that won't break the bank I'll check out the sure fire you're talking about I'm looking for a 1000 to 2000 lm or higher has to be at 1860 you're higher has to have strobe has to have power functions that lock and do not go back-and-forth like the wooben I have I'd be more than happy For your recommendation I'm asking all the flashlight guys because before now and before that move in which and all actuality The wolben light cost 2999 it's 1200 trulumen because I know my nightcore was I did research that was either a 1000 or 1200 and the wubin on full power blows the nikkor away with distance power everything it's remarkable it just does not have a strobe and does not have a reliable Beam it wants to constantly PAN through whenever you click it on I think I found the glitch where you turn it off On high or Turbo and When you power it back on you have the long press one Mississippi on the button then release and then it goes back to the last mode unless that's just a glitch on my light Actually I think you're talking about a duracell flashlight compared to a sure fire I thought I looked Up something else begin with AG a It was an Amazon like I might just say to h*** with it and go with what I know Theachi sells the tactical light the rifle kit with the pressure button 1400 lm for 2999 no I don't have sure fire money LOL and I've seen some videos on the fayachi light It can quick release off your gun and go in your pocket I'll have to double check what you're using now I started commenting right as you started the video The sucks because there are so many options out there and I'm not paying $2300 for a tactical light when I just paid 30 for a one that blows pretty much if it had a correct operating system for May every other tactical light and that power and category away and just construction price and Plus it's b Build aluminum I believe or whatever the tactical lights are made out of the metal and has a window bvessel sucks I'll just have to keep looking around good thing with Amazon they have a 30 day return policy I just looked up a flashlight that's supposed to be some ridiculous light that lit up a whole school field and I watched an actual RU-vid review of it and Amazon made it look like a handheld miniature mag light and size Like A Bigger more rugged like a miniature maglike looking light saying it had 900 or 90000 lm which I know for that price you're not going to get but figured it would be fun to look app when I did the big carrying case it looked like it came in and this huge supposedly Torch was in a box the size of a cigar box or smaller and worked off a AA triple-a batteries I can't have anything that is below 18 6 50 2700 or a 21 700 It's just nice to see people doing reviews and given their opinion I just know sure fire is a lot of money especially for their tactical gun lights as far as their actual flash lights I don't know but get in the budget banger that I got that blew it out of the water technology wise with the LED battery indicator power wise organisms rechargeable magnetic charging and the price puts it to where Some of the $23100 gun lights can't even do magnetic charging let alone have an LAD indicator and a trigger lock and rail Block And like you said Amazon is a circus thank God for the 30 days I think I'm gonna stick with my woven and and do some more research and watch some of you flashlight guys not wuben Ohh okay you are reviewing the giant one that they made it out to be maybe I seen something else it was a combo maybe it came with a little light anyway you're saying sure fire there was another company on there nebo I had 1 of those on my Beretta a tactical light that worked great years ago don't know about their flashlights Also there's one more I can't think of and they had some really nice diver lights that were waterproof that worked off 21 700 that weren't really EDC tactical lights but will serve the purpose of what I needed to do but I don't think they strove I have to have a strobe I'm gonna look in your information to check out that sure Fire details and I'll skin through your videos but if you're in the lights and ridiculous deals check out the Warrior land crossbow tactical weapon light Told a few Flashlight and light guys about it to actually test it or give their opinion of what they think the true power is and what they think about it and so far no one has got back to me or even did a proper review it's just idiots that buy it go out in their yard and flip out about how ridiculously bright and And easy to operate very very nice light Done had 2 of my buddies jumped the gate to s***** one That's not my cup of tea anyway sorry about the novel I'm trying to do research for a light my city's turning into a circus and if some crazy s*** happens I can't pull out my firearm to stroke them because God knows if I stroke them with that crossbow weapon light I know for a fact that it will disorient them probably in the pitch of black blind them for 30 seconds or more or give them a seizure if they have medical conditions I just can't do that if my firearm never comes out to holster it's to be stored away or at the range or something like that it's not to be used to guide or to identify things in the dark When it comes out in And the light is activated especially the strobe it's probably gonna be me unfortunately defending my life or mine and my mentally disabled or autistic daughter and are back is to a wall or they're trying to call j****** or I will be barking out orders for about 3 seconds for someone to comply for my defend with deadly force which I'd never want to do ever that's why I need a dependable bright light that can light up a huge area like LA crossbow does it automatically does a flood light with a peripheral vision on both sides pretty much lights up the whole front of my yard which is a quarter acre just out front and 23 houses down on each side I believe that's called flood I've never had a flashlight that you could adjust from a regular beam to a flood that would be great and a strobe
On a campsite that has a party at night, everyone using flashlights someone shouted I have the most powerful torch.. I went to my van and produced my XHP70 ..I won out of about 20 flashlights. The XHP70 will get a little hot after about 10 mins use on full power and it will drain the batteries, but it has a second Brightness mode and that works fine, I think it's "a good torch for the money". About £20 from ebay in the UK. Point it to the sky on full power and you have a Star Wars lightsaber ..May the force be with you.
What the hell is wrong with you dude! That XHP70 was WAY brighter than the other two! Are you said it was "Just a little brighter!? How about 3x as bright!!!!
Yeah, I think he has fallen for some confirmation bias there, I have a similar flashlight and it is really good IMO. It sure does pretty good bang-for-buck when you look at the price difference. Of course, the numbers are a joke (I've seen 1.000.000 lumens mentioned for a tiny flashlight with 3 AAA batteries...), but the sellers are nice enough to exaggerate wildly so no one can take the data seriously. I don't think any of the videos on eBay/Amazon/AliExpress etc, show 1, 2, or more of the product, they just VFX it or have a completely different searchlight. Same with Vehicle LED bars.
I own the Garberiel Xhp 70 and the xhp 90 and it definitely outperforms those 2 others you compared it to...You're biased! I have own more expensive 🔦 and I can definitely tell you you get more than your money's worth with this flashlight.
And probably half the price. Surefire is nice but way to expensive and they have those special batteries, which cost way more than all 3 of those flashlights combined. Oh and you can't find them anywhere. I am surprised he didn't toss in his fleshlight.
Yep, just got mine today... and in fairness, I'm a woman and have a bit more patience than a good few men I've met in my life... well I figured that trick out in about a minute when cycling through the modes. And yes, this guy is super biased. He probably has some sort of endorsement from sure-fire. Personally, I've owned a nebo seven-z for fifteen years, the xhp 70 outperforms it hands down... but it is a cheaper product so only time will tell how it really preforms as fifteen years and still going is really hard to beat.
Thank you very much .you doing a great review for this flashlight. I was too close to order it and after I see this review I know the correct information .you give everyone a great review and help full .thanks.
The one thing so many people over look with lights is washout. I have a very bright (1800 lumen) Olight but it's doesn't have a focus able beam. If the are no obstructions around its ok, it doesn't have as far off a throw but it's acceptable. When I'm in the woods, it's useless. It throws such a wide beam that it lights all the trees closest to me the brightest and I can't see anything beyond those first trees. I bought a small aa flashlight with focus able beam and i can direct the light between the trees close to me and it's way more useful. Repeat the test you did in the parking lot only go some where there are trees or bushes around or better yet, go where you have unlimited range. If you tried throwing light hundreds of yards you'd notice that cheap flashlight kicking the surefire's but
Hi, you can get the 123 batteries in Li-ion rechargeable batteries to replace the non-rechargeable 123 batteries. There are two advantages, they can be recharged and they charge to a max of 4.2v as opposed to the 3v in the regular 123 batteries. I use them in all my flashlights that use 123 batteries and the LEDs handle them just fine except they are MUCH brighter. I first tried them in my brinkman (plastic) surefire-ish flashlight with a 1200lm rated, one mode LED module from ebay. Then in used them in my surefire. The brinkman was considerably brighter, so I put the same LED module in my surefire and it works fantastic.
Much brighter = way less lifespan, most lights are overdriven from the factory to get good numbers so to overdrive them even more, is not sound use IMO. The increased power also generates more heat so the decay is more or less squared I believe. But, on the other hand, if you want a super bright light and don't need it to last very long, it is a way to go.
@@bennylloyd-willner9667 Well, works for me. So far so good and they still work. I put this down as an option, the option I use. You don't have to do this, but IMO, if it works, it works, plus they can be recharged.
Hi guys, I need to buy a flashlight for farm use, I dont need a super powerful thing but powerfull enough, water resistent and rechargable, any advice ??
Thank you for that I saw the same one KEPEAK , your vid has exposed them. I will say military don't use surefire, we use cheaper brands that have the same lighting. I was doing rounds @ the Grand Canyon village when some of my LEO buddies saw my light & thought it was surefire & began telling me he got his on sale for $200, & he asked to see mine. He light it and he notice it felt different & ask what brand. I told him Thorfire ( thurnight's budget version) & he asked how much I paid for it....$18😁 he was pissed cause well they were hard to tell apart. That was almost 7yrs ago & I've only had to replace the o-ring & the lens ( It was dark & I thought it was the switch) I was pressed so hard hard I broke the lens off. Wish they still made those lights, can't find them now....but there are better flashlights for less then half the cost. RU-vid is full of them reviews.
It's over 2 years since this video has been recorded but I just now received my XHP70 and it's half the size of the one in this video. Extremely bright but I agree it is frustrating to go through all of the settings when turning it off. The product was probably resized in the last two Plus years. It us 6 1/2 " in closed position and 7"when extended.
Bought a YXQUA XHP70 3000 Lumen Flashlight on Amazon that has normal and micro USB ports but apparently BOTH these ports are covered. The manual literature enclosed along with the flashlight doesn’t instruct as to how the hell does one open these ports in order to plugin the charging cable. Please if anyone here know how to, let me know.
Lol, the one I saw today said it has 900,000 lumens. No joke, it's on Amazon. Lmao They are still peddling that thing off a year later. Aparently they gain about 70,000 lumens per month. By 2030 you could disintegrate the moon with it. That's a hell of a bargain, I'm gonna buy 2!
you don't have to cycle modes if the torch is on for more than a couple of minutes when turning off. 200,000 lumens claimed, but quality black metal, and mine is the size of the small one shown on mobility scooters main beam, night & day difference though park, just a tenner. as long as at lasts, does say it's P70 at the back and is new
Im here from amazon after considering buying the xph70. The advertisement says it's 20,000 lumens. It's 40.99, after watching this. Can we trust anything from amazon ?
I search 5000 Lumen with zoom but this lamp have 3000 Lumes and zoom and seems Super bright Good for outdor i think for 13 € its mega cheap realy Good Deal.
Thank you for telling the truth unlike most ppl in life I get ppl trinna sell stuff but still ide rather see facts and spend monie rather that see fake and spend monie
Ill be honest, we can be a bit lazy about it... but we actually have a lux meter and have done actual tests and calculations. But, its kind of like the weather. Theirs the temperature and then theirs the "real feel" temp. So at the end of the day, its about what "looks" brighter that the consumer cares more about anyhow. When you can take two similar spec'd flashlights and get radical variance in brightness, thats going to be the ultimate test.

I have the ms 18 but I think the xhp 70 is a great flashlight aswel. It does throw out the light. Nothing like the ms 18 but it's still a great flashlight
Both my Xhp90 and Xhp70 torches died. The Xhp90 internal wiring melted and even resoldering didn't work. The Xhp70 wouldn't charge and the led lights kept flashing on their own then wouldn't turn on at all. Cheaply made circuits. My 25 year old Maglite 3 cell upgraded with a Cree bulb is my go to. Reliable and solid.
most XHP flashlights are clones with crap drivers, the XHP90 isn't even a real Cree product i spent a bit more money on a higher quality Convoy L6 and never saw this much output out of an XHP70 (but this one has a genuine one and drives it at it's rated power, even when the batteries get low)
if you want a cheap but high quality flashlight from china you need to test the sofirn sp70.. this sp70 not regret to have.. at $40 on banggood with 5500lumen.
@@Hampshire87 why ?. they cheap but high in performance.. american made brand even $90 streamlight stinger cant beat the chinese $18 convoy c8 sst40 in brightness and throw..the difference of performance is so big till we can notice instantly..other american brand such as surefire also is the most will regret to buy because so underpower.. fenix and olight is high in performance but the price is bit high. the price for 1 olight m2r warrior pro 2000Lumen, you can get 5 convoy c8 sst40 with same lumen and more throwier lights..
@@Hampshire87 yea if not buy from them so how is it if they the only one that have all high performance tool but with cheaper and affordable price compare to local made american light that ridiculously expensive but perform nothing.. no maglite or streamlight that is powerful as the cheap chinese light.. fenix and olight although american brand but the factory all in china but the price is overkill.. so what others than chinese made flashlight that you recommend that is high performance enough to satisfied the user ?.. you may try to lookout the 'astrolux ft03 xhp50' review, there is a lot of the review in youtube.. im dare to say although chinese light is cheap but no any streamlight variants that can perform like that chinese astrolux ft03.. try lookout the review. its not about support, it about fulfill the needs.
A lot of comments saying the reviews are biased. But I've been reading comments ( here and on other videos, too), saying that it won't charge/turn on, and a lot of people returning them. I don't think I will buy it.
What they do is it's all the same people but when they get found out that it's not as bright as they say they make another website with a similar footprint so people buy it again
rhank you so much brother you saved me so much money i knew these people where not telling the truth lol also i buy tuff off of ebay all the time so ive been ripped off a few times lol anyways thansk again and finnaly thers someone who is telling the truth and isnt working with them to make money lol
This is not the truth man. These lights are no joke. All you have to do it buy the light for $35. And buy separate batteries for $10. That’s roughly $50 for a good and very high quality flashlight. Most American lights with this amount of light easily charge $120-150, for the SAME thing.
Xhp70 does good for the price but there are things you should consider before buying one. 1. Not flexible UI. 2. No mode memory. 3. Very low runtime even with two cells. Lol 4. Bulky. 5. Zoomies have limited vision arc when on spot mode. 6. Waterproofing issues. 7. Lack of safety features like LVP or thermal step down. 8. Zoomies are not efficient in focusing light. 9. Hit or miss when it comes to reliability. 10. Lack of overnight low modes. With that said, xhp70 is not that bad, it can still serve as an indoor light if you need light in short periods of time. There are far better options out there from the budget brands if you don't want to spend much. For me, I pick flashlights that suits my needs and something I can really rely on when there's an emergency. I'm not a lumen freak, I only use enough lumens for me to see comfortably. 100 to 300 lumens is actually bright for most cases. 25 to 50 lumens enough to see your path. 5 to 20 lumens is good for overnight light when there are blackouts. In the end, it's not about which is the brightest or cheapest but about which one gets you home or gets you through the night. Lol
Regarding the 3. it is hard to put out a lot of light for a long time without really good batteries. I know the LED and circuitry may not be as efficient as a 3-4 times more expensive one, but it isn't that much different if using the same brightness IMO. The Imalent MS18 is pretty bright but you can't have it on the brightest setting for long (one minute I think before it needs to cool down), but it is still pretty pricey.
@@bennylloyd-willner9667 yes. It usually comes with crap batteries. Aside from battery capacity, the low mode is not low enough. A simple switching to low mode when moving around and only using turbo while scanning will significantly increase your runtime. My single cell light can survive an entire night without having to replace the battery even when I use them as an overnight light. A little bit of upgrade on the quality doesn't always mean too expensive. You should check budget brands like convoy, sofirn or lumintop. 🙂🙂🙂
@@budgetlightph7814 thanks for the tip, but I'm actually very satisfied with my fake XHP70, even the batteries are decent. I'm I weird nerd so when I get my 3D printer I'll try to create my own 50-100 W headlamp/worklight with Android app control 🤪😁
The P70 does seem to be sold under many different names, but the reviews I've read really seem to indicate a poorly made flashlight that is not all that reliable. It is certainly brighter than the Surefire and Duracell though - although far from being the most powerful in the world... It is not 9000 lumens either. From the looks of it, I'm guessing anywhere between 1000-2000. I have both 1000 and 2000 lument flashlights and the difference between 1000 and 2000 lumens is not as big as you would imagine. I believe the XHP70 LED can produce up to 2000, but never 9000. A little side note about the Costco Duracells, they are great when you fist turn them on, but keep it on and the brightness is automatically reduced in increments (you can visibly see it change). Same with the 3 pack of Duracell headlamps Costco sold this year. Very disapointing to be honest.
and where did you get your information or is that just your professional opinion? because the xhp70.2 is capable of 4292 lm 29W 181lm/w so well over 4 thousand (4292 lm) ,if your light is that dim buy some decent batteries some that can handle the 30 watts this led requires, maybe research before you blab your professional opinion and buy some batteries,psst youre looking kinda stupid right now shhhh Adam
oh and BTW i own em all from 10$ to 600$ and quality is no less than any other chinese light which is about all nowadays,you dont own the light but bash it why what you so proud of? you must be kin to this guy lmao
@@adamnchains Adam those specs are Correct for a genuine Cree xhp70.2 but the chip in that lite, while called a xhp70.2, is Not a cree nor do the sellers claim it to be cree anywhere.. thatssaid, its brite for sure though not quite the equal of the real thing...definitely blows both the little lites off the map though.
Allain, I liked the style Costco had before these Duracell's. Don't remember the brand name but seemed to work better. Not a fan of them getting dimmer like that, and they eat batteries. Ni-Cads save money but the voltage is lower, and don't think the light warrants the expense of li-pos.
The minimum lumens of the three Cree's combined are under 6,000, so 12,000 is also a "happy thought figure", to be honest. Closer to the truth (max output IS 4000/LED) than Chinesian values but most likely not what one gets out in the field.
I personally Prefer bigger flashlights They Are more durable Brighter have Bigger batteries with more power and Last longer Cant get lost Ez And can Be used As A weapon Little flashlights just don't feel natural and Don't give you that secure feeling and There is nothing nice looking about them
Lots of fake accounts defending that the XHP 70 flashlight 😂 I have one and it sucks compared to one that I owned for years. Bought it thinking it was gonna be an update on brightness and oh boy was it a huge disappointment.
It’s definitely not 1000 Lumens. I own one that claims to have a “XHP90” I measured the LED. It’s 7.2 MM. So it’s clearly a 70.2 LED. This light I own is SUPER BRIGHT. In fact it beats my Horiyas with 12-16 T6 LEDs. This light can easily push 3000-4000 REAL AMERICAN LUMENS. I tested this with an American XHP70B. And the light outshone it. Chinese’s companies are jot fake like we think. I’m tired of people stepping down on them. All of our “American” products come from them anyway...
If the Horiyas had a proper driver and battery it could easily shit on that XHP.... flashlight They're not much less efficient than a genuine Cree XHP70 but only go to 10W, so you can actually put 160W into those leds (the 16x model), and trust me that'll be like 3 or 4 of your XHP90 flashlights
Considering the gap between his teeth. I'm not surprised about the bias review. Obvious he gets paid by the smaller flashlight brand, but he can suck it.
What type of batteries did you use. 26650 batteries will make that thing way brighter. Traditional batteries just don't have the amperage that a 26650 battery. That being said you also can't run it that long. Because they will melt, literally. 🤣🤣🤣
XHP70 is much brighter, all metal body, comes with rechargeable cells (2x 26650) and can be charged from a micro USB. Great as a self defence device if out alone on dark nights. Available for around £20 with batteries and charging lead. Why pay more t use a flashlight that depends on outdated film camera batteries that cannot be recharged and can easily be snatched out of your hand?
Dude are you blind?? The 70 was way brighter and has more features on newer models and smaller. Also if you hold the button the light will shut off without cycling through.
Got the 50W XLM-P70 today. It's nowhere near the size of the one posted in this video. It's closer to the size of the middle one. I opt'd for the dual 26,650 lithium bats. Came in a plastic case with snap laches and foam. Very tiny from what I envisioned, based on it's power ratings, and online video's. We'll see if it's worthy of $40 shipped from ChiNah! After charging 9 hrs! Oh, instructions aren't in any other language than Chinese. So I'm going to recommend the U.S. stop putting instructions and phone answering services, in other countries language. We need to quit being so polite to our enemies. That includes American liberal's. They just aren't worthy... 👊😉
