- Find it here: amzn.to/3itkzqw Sometimes there's sales here: www.imalentstore.com/products... Is the Imalent MS18 the brightest highest lumen flashlight in the world? Is the MS03 the brightest EDC flashlight? Today we find out, then concoct our own creation to try and spice things up - mainly because it sounded like fun, let's be honest it's an abomination.

As always, Torque who started this channel is working in product development for Astro Tools who do not carry flashlights. TTC is not the only testing out there, always consider multiple sources!

"Overclocking" the process by which you up the voltage and cross your fingers you dont brick your hardware, then if successful have a whole lot of extra heat to deal with. So are we "overclocking" here? Still no, but maybe our friends over at LTT will see this monstrosity and possibly want to machine a water block/water-cool this thing over in Canukistan
At some point, with the scaling of the cooling hardware that super-bright LEDs require, you'd imagine more heat-tolerant light sources, such as HID arc lighting, might actually be more space efficient in blind-you-forever carry lights.
I suggest you check out some Hank lights. I probably can't post a link here, but he's a flashlight maker from China that had a big following on reddit. He's known for making high quality lights that use anduril 2 software. They seem durable, but not gonna put mine to the test. Maybe you could?
*Hey. I am continuing my testing as well. "Focus" your videos on Lowe's outdoor light products under the name Lithonia Lighting.*
I bought a $120 light, claiming 7500 lumens. Lol. No.
Tried to talk to the manager, he said, "It's just what the vendor puts on the box".
I tried to explain that "just" is breaking 5 laws... but you know, they don't hire for IQ.
You should have watercooled it. PC water cooling is 12 volts. An AIO (all in one) would have probably worked well with the rubber band rifle.
@@jeffp6615 They water block is made to fit a small CPU though, we'd need a water block to fit the LED array
I imagine everyone in town LOVED the filming of the night shoot parts of this episode. LOL
looks like that car put it up on the lawn lol
you won’t believe this one weird trick to see at night, neighbors hate him
It gets dark at like 5pm lmao.
Especially those people on the road trying to drive lol lmfao rofl
Yeah lol and i test my lights in the middle of the night far away from any houses or streets because i dont want to bother anyone with cute little 2k-5k lumen lights.
“Hello, police? There’s a guy walking around the neighborhood, carrying the sun!”
Ms18 owner here! So happy someone finally tested the output of this light and it actually exceeded the 100k rating. Also if you press the power button 4 times while the light is off it will run the fans and help cool the light faster.
I love these longer, more DIY style videos. This was an amazing video ! Hope to see more of it in the future !
Oh definitely, we're constantly tinkering on stupid things like this that make our wives heavily roll their eyes
@@TorqueTestChannel If you want your wife to roll her eyes y'all could always just get a new air compressor big enough for 1 inch air impacts 😁
Or just take a big 500L air tank with a 1 inch air line as the output. You charge it with the compressor and plug the impact on it. Some shops do that I think as buffers for big tools.
Agreed
They make videos exactly like this every friday from what I'm told in the outro
Doubles as a space heater on cold camping trips!
My poor baby MS03... Love the content, very professional and entertaining. much appreciated for using our flashlight in this video.
You guys make very cool stuff. Pushing the boundaries is always a tough road to walk
Hahah wow what a weird world we live in, a company watching its product be used by its customers? Very cool to see the engagement though
I've heard your flashlights are rubbish and would stand NO chance of lighting up the very dark fields I walk my dog through some nights, care to prove me wrong and send me one to test this theory? (free ofc) 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😜
In a world of Chinesium ridiculous lumen claims, someone has actually built the real thing....
Pretty sure the only thing more powerful is those custom made things that are basically battery powered floodlights....
You probably already know but a "drone shot" of the light output like you have created (113k) in a semi open area with backdrop trees looks very cool for reference like some flashoholics youtubers do.
Great content regardless 🤘
No doubt! That's kind of you to try and help this guy produce better videos. It's great advice in my opinion!
First off, I never heard of a flashlight that has to use a fan to cool it, which is sweet in its own right. Then you buy the light and supercharge it and then make a Ghostbusters looking ray gun to harness the sun to shine wherever you want.
You guys are freakin geniuses!! This is awesome!
I once had this comically large flashlight - I don't remember much about it, but it was huge and the charger smelled of burning electronics when it was used. That thing got hot and it frankly needed a fan despite not being close to as bright as modern lights.
Oh yeah - V2 should literally have a backpack full of batteries, and some chonky 0000 gauge wires to the head unit which clips on the slide, just like a Proton Pack !
Fit a portable radiator and pump from a welding kit for watercooling through a radiator for added cooling.
It's still "man portable" if you can walk with it.... briefly.
Check out the Acebeam X75. Even better fan implementation and a cheap(er) light for nearly the same brightness.
@@naota3k
God I love Acebeam.
Oh I guarantee, you could hold a ghost with that thing, no sweat.
Love this channel
Love you
@@MRLEE-of5fj wow!
@@amentia 😘
@@MRLEE-of5fj e.e
I think yall should look into a liquid cooling setup like most gaming desktops have when boosting lights, you know you want too!! Id love to see some moderately priced EDCs modded and/or boosted.
You still need to reject the energy to ambient air at some point. I don't think it makes that much sense in a handheld unit
I was a bit sad that TTC couldn't get ANSI rated 100k lumens with the MS-47.
We didn't think we'd crack 85k!
Time to build your own liquid cooled one.
I love your flashlight content, please keep them coming!
That is the only light I felt no need to modify. I am still glad you did. Awesome!
This is amazing. I love the overclocking and modding you did to it, and having the trigger be functional to activate the fans was great.
I love the Dodge line of thinking here. Let’s take something practical and make it way overpowered for the hell of it.
Not quite on the same level, but would definitely love for you guys to also test out Olights X9R. Appears to be a more durable option, but then again, no one has tested it.
Love the stuff you do . Wish I had the time to build wacky stuff like that. So cool.
Great Job....
So sick... And I am HERE for it!!!! Heh heh!
That thing is crazy bright... I'm almost surprised nobody called the cops, wandering around with that thing.... That guy in the car on the road, he probably called in a UFO report....
I really love little comedy bits you insert into your videos, it's fun.
Nice work man! This Chanel has come such a long way! Great testing as usual
I Love this review more than most! Thanks for uping the battery to really test this lighting package!
A thermal camera would be handy for showing how hot they in a short time.
Maybe another testing series? Thermal cameras
Loving all the new non torque tests and reviews yall have been doing!
Great video. Really enjoyed the build to see how far you could push things.
We all get to live vicariously through this channel .. this channel is a personification of all the garage conversations we have over heard from our parents grandparent and ourselves … its awesome
Too bad that EDC wasn't any good, was ready to click the link. You guys are AWESOME!
Its how it goes sometime. No good, no link
@@TorqueTestChannel what’s your recommended EDC?
Absolutely fantastic video as always! As a career automotive technician who has a perhaps unhealthy love of all things flashlight and power tool related I absolutely love your channel! One question though. I see a lot of RUclips reviewers and regular Milwaukee users complaining about the HD12.0 packs failing prematurely and dropping a bank or so of cells. But I never hear of anyone who tried to get them fixed under warranty. It’s just reviewers constantly making comments about the unreliability rather then trying to fix the issue. Now I understand nobody should have to deal with crap if it is as wide spread as it sounds but cost and quality only get you so far, anything can break. So my question is, have you or anyone you know attempted to get the HD12.0 or for that matter any Milwaukee battery, fixed/replaced under warranty and if so what was the outcome? Obviously you can’t do that on your newly modified HD12.0.
Would be fun to see the beam/throw from the top with a drone or something
Dude absolutely fantastic channel with great practical know-how and even better video ideas! Trusted
I'm so glad I have atleast in some ways supported this channel because this is the top channel in youtube. And the new types of content flashlights etc are very good because I think everyone here is also interested in this stuff. Manly things!
The shot of you walking around outdoors at night made you look like a ghostbuster!
Classic overkill from TTC. LOVE IT
That fan "turbo" blow off valve sound is just an unexpectedly hilarious gag. Even after the AK-47 gag. kudos.
Holy smokes
Nice job.
When the best just isn’t enough , give TTC a call.
Losing a bank of cells in the 12Ah might be due to a balancing issue, as Milwaukee's batteries and chargers don't really cope with balancing that well.
It was a super common issue with the old High Demand 9.0s, and for a time it pretty common to see forum posts where people would frequently have a 50% failure rate on the twin packs, and a quick skim points to 12Ahs starting to suffer the same issues. It seems like 5S/3P is just too finicky for Milwaukee to pull off without running into these issues, at least until they upgrade the balancing chip to something that can deliver more than 50mA, or reconfigure something so that the cells can be balanced regardless of charge status.
This chanel keeps getting better.
The only light you need when you gotta brighten up a whole city block
Great job guys keep up the hard work !!!
Have recently got into making custom lights myself, it's so fun! And really quite easy.
Y’all are nuts. Love it!
This is hilarious and informative. I love the combination of engineering and jank.
The modified light brought back memories of Clark Griswold and the joy his lights brought the neighbors
Expecting an LTT crossover next: "Watercooling the worlds brightest flashlight!"
This is the best TTC episode ever!
There was a RUclipsr that made a custom "daylight generator" a few years back, would love to see you tackle that and make a better/newer version if possible haha
🤣 what a convenient and rugged design!
Great work, it's fun to push the boundaries, as insane as it may be! Your light sphere still does very good too, good enough for us!
Got p42a in a 13s4p setup for an electric skateboard. Absolutely love them
That’s honestly is as bright as a helicopter spot light… I’m impressed!
I would love to see atleast a short with this light shining across a vast area. Like take it out to the desert, and see how far away you can actually see with it. or idk.
You’re freaking amazing haha😂you definitely keep us all on our toes. Only you. TTC for life !!
It's funny to see you start getting into flashlights. My friend was real big into flashlights about a year ago. He bought the MS-18 (flood) and a GT94X (thrower). They're very impressive lights. Brands you may be interested in as well that I haven't seen you mention are Emisar, Noctigon, Fireflies, Lumintop, Weltool, Mateminco/Astrolux, Reylight, Acebeam.
Emisar are my favorite lights. Keep in mind these are not mechanic lights. They are fanatic lights. So drop testing and such aren't what most people in this hobby are concerned about and thus the lights aren't designed around that either.
I use Molicell P42A in my 21700 lights and P26A in my 18650 lights and Keeppower UH2652 in my 26650 lights.
Luxwad has an awesome channel on lights among a few others.
*overclocking a flashlight with twin turbos*
next thing he overclocks mcdonalds sprite with twin turbos
The final product looked like something you would pick up out of the mystery box in cod zombies
That was far more enjoyable than I thought it would be.
The last config is absurd and I love it. From the rest of mankind, thank you.
TTC keeps rocking and as one of the best channel in RUclips your contents never disappoint. I'd like to see your take on the universal impact sockets.
I love both flashlights 😊
I have the MS03 everyday in my pocket and use it very often as light for e scooter or headlights on videoshooting set building.
Sinse 1 week I have the MS18 now and i love it too. 🤩 the brightness level is so high, it is the perfect light to light up dark indoor filmsets bevor all is building up.
No cables or external batteries. Just press on with 5 - 22k Lumen on a stand and the whole set is lighting up for the set building.
For small shootings, i have use it on shoulder strap and shining it on the ground. Looks like a bit scary but the picture wars bright :D
Incredible work
If you needed to add those extra fans for additional cooling you have to add another video testing the light in winter conditions. That way you will get a better cooling without further modifications.
Someone suggested further modifications with different fans and bigger heat-sink or even watercooling. I would take the consumable route, try using those cans of compressed air for cleaning or even the ones that are used to thermal test circuit that do shoot out freezing gas
Sorry for the people in the cars at night. Out for a drive, then blinded worse than lifted trucks. Great work.
This is bonkers and I’m loving it!
It's so bright at the end it's actually harder to see then in the dark, everything is just white and washed out lol I love it.
I would never get one of these but interesting to see how they work.
First thing as you say, the top lumens only lasts maybe 10-30 seconds, then they quickly die down to around 500-700 lumens. Plus you say they get very hot.
Thanks again for the testing reviews and your mods at the end.
I believe the Imalent SR32 is now the worlds most powerful flashlight @120,000 lumens. I recently purchased the MR90 and its incredible. Cant imagine 2x that output! Great videos as always, from a fellow flashlight reviewer!
Glad to se molicel getting some attention. They are amazing batteries
I am very happy with my Ryobi 18v flashlight. Like a hand held flood light with 2 rechargeable batteries. I go on night walks in the woods with my 2 dogs. The battery lasts for 1.5 hr each. The beam shines SO far. It's so fun to explore at night with it. I got it at home Depot.
I noticed that quite a few of the lumens from my own flashlights had packed their travel bags and were heading to your location as back up. Makes sense after seeing this video. Hopefully they’ll return soon, my flashlights are all quite dim now.
Molicel has some amazing cells. I've got 2 p28a cells in my vape, and they easily handle 15a @3.8-4.2v
best show ever, also trees says thankyou, it was cloudy yesterday so they stored light for 3 days from you
Those two cars in the last part of the video with the hot rodded light must have thought the police chopper was above them with their spotlight on them lol. There is an idea get one of those lights in to test.....
the outdoor test reminds me of that episode of malcolm in the middle where they set off the giant firework and it just turns to daylight for a bit
Love the fact you don't replace the mat, even after laser burns.
Simply awesome !
Flashlight testing always a winner with me.
That's blindingly amazing!
One of the few applications where lights like these can run with minimal thermal considerations is underwater. When housings are constructed from a thermally conductive material (i.e. anodized aluminum), LEDs can run pretty much indefinitely at stupid amperages.
Of course, that takes some serious batteries... But I've swam around with a consistent 60k lumens for an hour before. (SCUBA + photogrammetry)
LOL what do you think that car was thinking as it drove by and you were flashing the world's brightest flashlight and its direction
Where can I pickup a production version of the gun!!?! Love it
You guys are awesome!!!
Tweak the design a little bit, add a sling and some paint and maybe some add ons to give it a steam punk theme and I’d rock it. The little turbo fans are badass. MORE
Great videos
Fantastic video. No idea what the voltage levels meant. Maybe next video could convert it to approx %
I'm betting Milwaukee will be rolling these super flash lights out soon. That's what I've heard from the tool rep at work, at least
I've always wanted to make a light like that but I think the way to go would be building a shoulder mount for an Apature 600d running off two 28.8v V-mount batteries :)
Great work
Hey Torque,
Just wondering if you have ever tested a PBLIW01 with a 6ah HP battery pack and if it made any difference compared to Ryobi's 4ah or 3ah offerings? I know the 9ah pack makes a pretty substantial difference in gains, just wondering.
Thanks,
Chris
Regarding the "no-name brands" shown on the table, Anker isn't a generic brand. They primarily make powerbanks and are pretty good quality, they started making flashlights later and although I haven't used any of them I've heard good things.
You ask all the same technical questions internally that I would and then deliver on them, every time. You're a freaking badass, thank you for going the extra mile. Not only for us, but I sure can imagine you enjoy it too.
You’ve earned yourself a subscriber!
Would love to see a taser test video!
All I want for Christmas is a colab between TTC and project farm.
@@ShainAndrews yes. Why
@@ShainAndrews bro I've got no idea what you're talking about
For context: A helicopter spotlight is 60,000 lumens
I was just thinking how its gotta be close to a helo spotlight during the last test lol
Dude. I’m seriously going to attach this to my Bushmaster
Now I just need these as truck headlights and I can finally see at night!!
The Nightwatch NS73v2 is a great alternative to the MS03. For a much more affordable price you're getting 17500 lumens. And it uses a single 21700 as well
With an incredible Lishen 21700hp that Nightwatch hand picks to get the highest discharge
So what if you used things like copper high end thermal pads and paste in 12.5mk range or higher better fan ducting or watercooling for bigger overclock in smaller package?
What's the application for something like this? I've got a Streamlight Stinger that I use for work. I took it camping once and even that relatively small thing put out enough light to where I used sparing so as not to bug my camp neighbors.
You should do some tests with some of the emisar lights (d4, d18, k9, etc), those things are monsters for their size.
i want one of these imalents soooo bad ! but i just can't justify the cost , especially since i already have the biggest baddest streamlight they make and i basically only use it to get people to stop driving behind me with their high beams on when i'm in my semi .... but ohhhh one of these days!!
Those jerks deserve the balloon popping laser that he tested a couple videos back 😂
@@mattfleming86 i honestly thought about getting one after i watched that video but the way i do it is by shining it in my own mirrors which would make aiming it pretty hard
that 3500 lumen (according to streamlight) usually does the job with just a quick flash... but if i hold it on them i can see their eye color 😂😂
Check the Acebeam X75, 80kLumens and really good quality for a much better price
At this point... Could the every day carry light stop a charging bear more effectively then mace? Gunna need you guy to test this one for me.
