I do find the light accidentally turns on in my pocket so I recommend locking the light out. As you can see in the beamshots, this light has a very tight hotspot with minimal spill. Shown in the picture on the left is the Noctigon KR1 W1, which has the same emitter as the Thrunite.

Just a question. What is you favorite bedside flashlight? Expensive or cheap as they come.

BLT LT1 is on my nightstand every night. I like using Anduril 2's awesome sunset timer when I go to bed.

Besides that, there's whatever EDC light I'm carrying, olus sometimes another. This morning it's Fireflies E07x and Noctigon KR1.

2) [THIS Noctigon KR1. Now, I'm more in favor of the C8, since it's about half the price of the KR1 and I really don't want to spend too much on a light that, in the end, is supposed to be a toy.

Wanna buy a bright flashlight for a farm

I'm also on a farm, also wanted a bright flashlight (specifically for throw in my case). I know I won't carry tools that aren't handy, so I asked a similar question here but added small size as a requirement, along with a few other considerations. Most suggestions pointed towards a noctigon kr1 (xhp35 hi emitter). So I got one and sure enough, it's perfect!.

Flooder, thrower and headlight with same cell type.

Also like in the headlamp section, the Emisar D4V2 is an enthusiast light with all the same caveats. * Thrower: Acebeam L17, Convoy M1, Convoy C8+, Noctigon KR1, Manker MC13, Manker MC12 II, and Mateminco MT35 Mini-S/Astrolux FT03 Mini are all excellent options. The Noctigon KR1 is made by the same guy that makes Emisar lights, so it is yet again another enthusiast light with all the same benefits and drawbacks as the others.

looking for an 18650 powered all purpose light with better features and power than my current anker LC90

Noctigon KR1 is an excellent pocket thrower.

The Lumintop FW1A is also great, not as powerful but a lot smaller.
