* updated list: lightpaintingt... *
I’m presenting you 6 flashlights in this review. The first 4 ones are the top alternative for blue-hour light-painting (bright flashlights). You’ll normally want a pair of those (if you wish to be able to create stripes). The two others are mostly “specialized” ones that I always carry with me.

So..... what is your favorite flashlight? Either for tubes or other type of light-painting. Tell me ::)
I just ordered my first flashlight(wowtac bss v3) online through your link. Im looking forward to kicking it up a notch with light-painting this year.
Actuellement ma lampe torche favorite est la d25lc2 tactique. Mais j'ai aussi la version clicky avec laquelle j ai commencer les tube. Du coup j aime les deux.
I love the Olight M1x Striker, my husband prefers the Klarus XT2C we both like the Nitecore P26 & MT22C for their regular strobe, especially for tubes, I have the KYO system so got the Klarus XT12S but it has an irregular strobe so I will be getting the NitecoreSRT6 we also use the TG06S Thorfires which are great for small tubes or putting in the other end of larger tubes for better light or added strobing. I bought most of these through your recommendations & have not regretted one purchase. Oh & I got an Olight X7R Marauder for Christmas for trying backlighting. I have got other torches but these are the ones we use the most. Many thanks for your previous recommendations
@@donnaeaves3058 haha you're a real warrior! Hey before you purchase the SRT6, can you tell me how you are using the KYO system? (just to figure out if my constant-strobe hack could work for you :) )
Hy Eric and all the best from Romania. i'm using 2 flashlights olight S30RII and olight S30R III and i'm very happy with them, but the wowtac looks interesting! thanks for the video!
Thank you Mr.Pare, your tubes and the support to the community has been phenomenal
Thank you for sharing. I have been light painting for 30 years but always enjoy to learn new techniques.
Count me in! Thanks for all your generosity!
Thank you for sharing and thank you for your input when I was flashlight shopping in December 2018 :-) I settled for the Wuben TO40R Flashlight because of the brightness and the fact that it technically doesn't dim down on turbo mode at 1200 lumens. It has all the functionality I need. I was too impatient to wait a couple of days for the M1 Striker, but I have no regrets. The Wuben has proven to be very solid, reliable and delivers as the specs say. It's a big upgrade for me having previously shot with 2 x 400 lumens flashlights in one tube.
Une vidéo qui tombe au bon moment, je suis en pleine recherche de nouveaux outils lumineux.
Merci Eric, ton travail est hallucinant, et tes tutoriels sont une aide précieuse !
WOW!!!! I was looking for a thrower flashlight for going through the swamp at night. I need a flashlight that goes far so I don't hit anything like trees or Cypress knees in the water. This showed up and after watching it I watched a few more on light painting. WHERE THE HELL HAVE I BEEN?!?!?! This is the most awesomeness thing I've ever seen!!!!! Thank you Sir (and RUclips) for showing me this art form!!!! Liked and subscribed!!!!!
haha wow thanks Raymond :::)))
Thanks for the update Eric. I'm hoping to pull the trigger on a good lightpainting flashlight in the next couple of weeks. It's always good to see your input on this.
Used to be simple like you said, more complex = imagination expanded.
Been following for a while now and I always learn something new.
Thanks.
Wow thanks for share the gear that you use, its so good to have a review of that!!
thanks! :) Is there anything else you'd like me to review?
Well ill like to know in this particular case, which is heated more, I have tried other very different and I have made a diy tube, but the heat causes parts to be damaged, also will like to know the distance and other uses as you say on the beginning.
You talk more of price than other things 🙈 thats my thought
I use the Thorfire VG15S, its cheap and it does the job :D
YES!!!!!! This one was supposed to become the official low-budget option but many folks from the group told me that they had a non-constant strobe version of it. So.... Thorfire is making two different versions of this light, and there's no way to figure out which one you'll get. Crazy thing :) Do you have constant strobe on yours?
@@Ericpare I do! I bought two at the same time and both have constat strobe :D I guess I was lucky that day :D:D
I have the Olight M1x striker for tubes and for light painting I have an old incandescent army issue torch. Love the temp of this incandescent light.
You have always been my inspiration to click some delightful pictures. Your light painting work is "high art" truly ! I've been waiting to purchase a 1000 lumens flashlight. Wish I get one.
My Favorite Flashlight is a ThorFire VG15s, because I only have this one haha Good Job Eric Thx for vidéo !
How is it?
I want one!!!! These are incredible!!! That’s really funny how there are 6 now haha. It’s so crazy now for light painting but absolutely incredible and you’re still the king! ;;)

Klarus is great, the price tell the quality.
Live this video. Theres definitely a difference in these torches and in different situations. I've been using the Olight torch based on your recommendations and absolutely love it based on the memory function
Thank you sir...your video helps me lots... thanks for sharing your amazing work & information to us... thanks you are legendary...
Eric, you're the one who inspired me to pursue my career in Photography, especially Light Painting ❤️😍
Keep inspiring, keep sharing.
Thanks Eric for the review, looks great and strong this Folomov, great related video in Amazon, the 'break the ice' moment, was epic Lol
haha :P thanks
Thanks a lot again! Here in Finland it’s dark most of the day in winter so we have a lot of time to do lightpainting. Awesome review 💫 keep up.
I'm in awe of your work, simply amazing! Thanks for the advice on Flashlights, very helpful and thank you for sharing.
Thank you brotha for sharing...Not yet did an experiment..but your insta feed is so awsome and one inspiring one..want to photograph some light painting shots sooon..Hi from kerala,India
Awesome review! Still love my nitecore mt22c even if airport security didn’t! Super easy adjuster for lumens/strobe and the eagle tax d25lc2 for smaller tubes. Keep on keeping on!
Always been a great inspiration to me and so many others and so giving of your techniques.
Hey!! Thanks for the information, Best regard from Colombia
Thank you for this review I hope I'll find my first light in this selection.
Very good in deep review. I like some of these flahlights, maybe one of them will sustitute my flahlight soon. Thanks for your great job
Man, I would love an updated list. Most of these are discontinued.
Check this out: lightpaintingtubes.com/flashlights ::))
I would love one of these. Great source of information and always an inspiration. Thank you.
Best light trails photographer 🙌🙏❤
Unreal man, thanks for the review. Always appreciated
hey Kris!!! :D
Hello Eric 🙏💙
Eric, thanks for your review...AGAIN! I have two of the Olight Strikers as per your suggestion. I think you could grind off the bezel points pretty easy with a sander. By first covering the lens and then grinding the points away, there should be no damage to the light. I would do it to show you what I mean, but I kind of want them left on. I'll grind them off for you if you feel like sending it to me. -Brent.
haha good idea! And that would make a nice video too ;) Lucky me we have tons of tools at the studio. It might happen eventually... Thanks!! :D
Brent!! Hey we ended up doing exactly that ::)) Thanks :D

Great review. Didn't know that so many types are available. Thanks a ton.
Thanks for advice! Seems like Nitecore will be my choice 👍🏻
So awesome!
Thanks for the detailed overview Eric!
Starting to experience this kind of creative photographing. Would be really helpful to get one of those torches.
Thanks for all the information. I have one of the flashlights but it's not that much bright. Love your videos.
Amazing! Thanks for the examples! I want to win the flashlights! Hehehe
i like it all,,, simple to use it, 😋
Great video, love your work
Une vidéo simple et efficace comme d'habitude, clair et précis ;)
hey merci Pat :D
Thank you Eric, always enjoyable and informative.... great inspiration.
Epic! Review I need to get out there and create so one of these would be useful. Finding it hard to choose.
Right now I m using Thorfire VG15s nd Eagtac and one basic cree torch...
By the way thanks for video😎
I always learn so much from you. THANKS!!
Thanks for the review, highly appreciated!! i'd love to have one of the flashlights :)
Very nice work!!! 😍
Merci pour cette nouvelle vidéo. Un bonjour de Belgique ;-)
Allô Renaud! :::))
Oyé :-)
Thank you for the flashlight reviews!
Amazing great review love ur work
Currently using an Eagletac and A COB light.
Thanks for the valuable info!
thank you for all your incredible work
I would love to win one of these lights. I already bought a wireless shutter release so I can practice!
Master work!!!
I’ve been waiting for a video like this
How's your day / Comment etait ta journee, Eric?. I have 2 Nitecore MT22C and ThorFire VG-15S. Nitecore is my the most favourite because I can adjust the dim based on the night and astro-photography. That's how I bought it from your Tubestories 89 recommended. Will plan to buy other flashlights to experiment like Klarus XT2CR & Outline flashlight. Not sure if all of flashlights have the same kind of batteries? Your Tubestories always impress me and excellent sources! Keep it up.. Till next time, PEACE!
Hi John. You already have good ones. The "outline" one would be a good addition, especially at that price (12$?). This one uses either 1x AA or 1x 14500 (more powerful). Thanks :)
Thank you for all your Inspiration!
Awesome review! I use the Eagletac a lot and I'm looking for more options.
Thank you, Eric!
Absolutely amazing one! Would love to have one 😍❣️.
Nice!! Thanks for sharing!
Great info here! Thanks Eric! 🙌
Thanks for the great resource as always!
Thanks, great work!!
Awesome vid as always...
great options!! currently using eagletac, but might switch to wowtac!
What a creativity!!! Keep inspiring! :D
Nice, some can work underwater also!!
all of them :)
Awesome review. Quick question, can all these fit in a 1” tube? 😊
Thanks! The tube is a bit larger than 1" :)
Eric Paré / Xangle oh ok. Got it. Thank you very much for replying. Did a few shots with my wife last weekend and think I need a stronger flashlight. Currently using a klarus Mi7 and it does ok when I use 2 flashlights but not strong enough to shoot during sunset. Anyway thank you for your time. Hope you guys can visit Manila someday 😊
Thanks for such a great review.
Cool video again dude
Nice info. Thank you.
I would be so happy to have 1! It would realy help me😍🤞🏻
Awesome , thanks for the review
Hey! I really really need one of these!
Hello thank you for this 🙏
Molan mucho, me encantaría probarlas.
I am using the ThruNite TC12 V2. 1100 Lumens.
ah yes! I have this one too. It's one of the best flashlight I own. But the side switch is driving me crazy lollll
Would love to have wowtac bss v3
Love your work, Very inspiring :)))
Do the past buyers of the 16 tubes get a flashlight? Keep creating your changing the world.
no but that kit doesn't exist anymore! You have some colors that might never be back in the store. You're tubes are going to gain value :::))
@@Ericpare WE are getting our next order together now my friend.
WOWTAC BSS V4 Tactical LED Flashlight just came out. More lumens and has a memory mode. Can be charged with battery inside via USB cable. It has a reading light mode which is very low for Astro. Only problem is that it is only available, to my knowledge, from Amazon USA so it doubles in price when shipped to us Europeans. Does anyone here know where we can buy it in Europe?
Very cool! Thanks for sharing your info! Flashlight Nightcore would be useful to me))
How much light is too much light? I saw a small led flashlight with 3,000 lumens
All off these flashlights have focusable beam ?
Amazing !!
Great! Love your work!
I want one!! :)
The klarus is not available anymore, you have another recommendation for extra bright cause I do mainly urban shots
hey Francois! :) I updated the link for the Klarus. It is still the brightest one :)
merci pour le partabe eric. peut-etre mentionner quel type de batteries elles utilisent ainsi que leur autonomie
okay je vais ajouter ça. Elles utilisent toutes une batterie 18650 sauf la toute petite qui prends soit une AA ou 14500 :)
