77outdoorRechargeable Flashlight, Sofirn IF22A 2100 High Lumen 690m Max Powerful Thrower Flashlight with SFT-40 LED, TIR Lens, Discharge Output for Hiking (Black)

Do you want to be able light up objects that are a quarter mile away from you? Do you want a way to make that creep that's been following you on your walk home leave you alone, without resorting to pepper spray or deadly force? Do you want both in one pocket-sized device that you can legally carry pretty much anywhere? Well, let me introduce you to the Sofirn IF22A! This flashlight is seriously powerful, very well-built, can charge your phone in a pinch, and can pack a serious punch in a self-defense scenario.Take a look at the picture I've attached to my review. That was taken at night at the longest straightaway in my neighborhood, and this thing lights up the full distance! So if you want to be able to light up stuff that's super far away, this flashlight is perfect for that. Build quality is also fantastic, I've had this thing for a number of months now and I've dropped it a handful of times and it just shrugged it off, and it's even been fully submerged underwater with no problems at all. This flashlight can also charge your phone from its USB-C port if you're in a pinch, which is convenient.However, one thing that I haven't seen many people mention that I think definitely should be is the fact that this thing is legitimately viable for self-defense. This flashlight's peak brightness is 2,100 lumens, but the peak intensity of the beam's hotspot is over 100,000 candela. That is FAR beyond blinding. In a self-defense situation, the candela (AKA the intensity) of the light is incredibly important, arguably more than the lumens. I own a few other high-output flashlights (Sofirn IF25A and Wurkkos TS10 v2 for those that are curious), and because I am an idiot, I decided to test each of them out on myself to see how disabling they would be when shined in the eyes of a potential bad guy. All of them were bright enough to be blinding and disorienting as long as they continued to be shined in the eyes, but this one left my vision noticeably impaired for a good 5 minutes after it was switched off. Having this thing shined in your eyes on max brightness (and ESPECIALLY on strobe mode) induces complete blindness, forces you to involuntarily close your eyes, disorients you, feels legitimately painful, and leaves your vision somewhat impaired for a little while even after it's switched off. That's not to say that this thing is the end-all be-all of self-defense (and tactical lights with one-click access to turbo can be preferable in some situations), but it is seriously valuable and can spare you the legal headache that using pepper spray or deadly force could potentially involve.If you're ever in a situation where someone is making you feel that you feel unsafe, shining this thing in their eyes can make them reconsider their actions. My singed retinas are proof of that. If you want to see for long distances in the dark, this thing is awesome for that too. If you want a daily-carry thrower flashlight, you should probably look elsewhere though because this thing is pretty bulky. I'd recommend checking out the Wurkkos TS11, Thrunite Catapult Mini v2, or Thrunite Catapult Mini Pro if you want something more pocketable.

I recently got the 77outdoor Rechargeable Flashlight, Sofirn IF22A, with a coupon, and I must say, it’s an absolute game-changer. This isn’t just any flashlight; it’s a thrower flashlight that has exceeded my expectations.The flashlight is equipped with an SFT-40 LED and a TIR lens, providing an ultra-bright output of 2100 lumens. The long throw feature is truly impressive, with a range of 690m, equivalent to around six football fields. On a clear night, the narrow pencil beam pattern lights up the surroundings brilliantly.One of the standout features is the fast charging capability. The built-in USB-C port allows for a full charge in around 2.5 hours. What’s more, it supports USB-C to USB-C, enabling it to recharge external devices like smartphones. This feature brings a lot of convenience for outdoor travel.The flashlight offers a long runtime, running for 5.5 hours at medium mode and an impressive 40 hours at low mode. It also provides stepping and ramping modes, allowing for smooth light output control, much like a dimmer.The Sofirn IF22A is tough and reliable. Its compact size and lightweight design make it easy to carry, and the Aerospace-grade 6061 aluminum alloy body shell ensures durability. It’s also IPX8 waterproof, making it a reliable companion even in heavy rain.In conclusion, the 77outdoor Rechargeable Flashlight, Sofirn IF22A, is a powerful, reliable, and convenient tool for any outdoor enthusiast. Its superior brightness, range, and durability, coupled with its fast charging and power output capabilities, make it a must-have for any outdoor adventure.

I’ve bought about three of these in the past year, not because they break, but because for the price point they are absolutely worth it. This small flashlight throws an incredible distance for its size, is very handy in the fact it’s rechargeable, and is small and compact to keep anywhere. The numerous adjustable brightness settings are also a huge plus. I lost my most recent one outside in a snowstorm, and after two days of heavy rain, I find the flashlight lying in the mud in my backyard STILL WORKING on moonlight mode. Very impressed with the quality and durability. Some downsides are it’s a focused beam and not adjustable to be a flood light, and the wrist strap (only where it connects to the flashlight loophole) seems to be like fishing line, and breaks after much use. All in all, I 100% recommend this product.

Was skeptical about this due to the low price but it's my favorite daily carry light. I am a flashlight collector and own Nitecore, Olight, Fenix and Klaris. This is as good as any of them and throws a tight beam as well As any of my Olight Javelots plus it has all the illumination options including strobe and includes a USB charging port. It doesn't accept a protected 21700 but has built in protection. I've dropped it on cement,asphalt and tike with no negative effect on operation and the only negative was a dimple in the positive end of the flat top battery that was popped back out with a eyeglass screwdriver. The only negative is the positive terminal is not a spring, it doesn't cone with a holster but otherwise it compares favorably to lights 3x the price.
