Review on πŸ”¦ PeakPlus LFX1000 Rechargeable Tactical Flashlight with 18650 Battery and Charger - High Lumens LED, Super Bright, Zoomable, 5 Modes, Water Resistant - Top Camping & Emergency Flashlights by Pius Aponte

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good flashlight, not so unique. This is the same as the others listed at Revain.

While I like this flashlight I can't add anything that hasn't already been covered by other reviewers that you probably haven't read. However, it's worth noting that ALL of these lights are basically from the same manufacturer and have just been rebranded. I've bought many of these flashlights (I'm a bit obsessed with flashlights) often when they're on sale, and I've seen firsthand that there's no significant difference between many of them. For example, this flashlight is rated at 1200 lumens. I have another flashlight, EXACTLY the same, from a different 'manufacturer', right down to the bulb, brightness, packaging and accessories except for the name stamped on it - and it was rated at 1000 lumens. I know is it 1200 or 1000? No not at all. But the beam looks exactly the same on the wall next to it, right down to the square pattern of the chip in the lightbulb, and if they're the same and different sizes, well, judge for yourself, but I guess someone isn't being so honest. It's no secret that many of the products here at Revain are simply ordered in bulk from Alibaba, shipped to Revain fulfillment centers, and sold by the seller as a brand new product. It has nothing to do with Revain or Alibaba, but individual sellers buy in bulk and resell for even more. Aside from the mostly very small quirks or a different color, it's the same - the only marketing difference (It's the brightest! Don't wait, THAT's the brightest!). This does not mean that the products are bad or low. quality or poor quality. But I think buyers should be aware of that. This doesn't just apply to flashlights. Some of the best selling 'brands' are manufactured entirely by Revain and 9 times out of 10 it's EXACTLY when you see a similar product from a new 'brand' that looks exactly the same as the more well known and expensive one. THE SAME THING. It's crazy because I see people prefer one "brand" over another, and then I look at Alibaba and find I can buy 1,000 <insert items here> for $1.50 each. I definitely like the flashlight. I've included a few photos to show exactly what I'm talking about. Just my two cents on the subject. You will see what I am talking about in the photos. This may not be exactly what the seller wanted to see and I expect a lot of rejections for that reason, but I think people need to know the truth.
