i bought two of these and two extra batteries and a charging station for the extras, this is the best light I have found and i have a dozen of the others that have failed, this is the light you have been looking for.
I've had the Klarus 950 lumen flash light now for about 7 years and NO problems at all. Its a GREAT light. They are the only company i'd buy a light from. I bought the 950 Lumen when it was the highest available at that time and its amazing. Even till today i'll show my law enforcement buddies and they all say "wow omg that's brighter then the ones we use" and its only 950 not 1100 lumens. I'm about to upgrade to the 1600 lumen Klarus light.
Not losing contact for physical lockout isn't because of the springs, Ben, it's because the tailcap's threads aren't anodized. I like this one in a defensive standpoint, and could use one of them. Definitely an upgrade in that field over my old TN12 2014. Unfortunately, I'm in big time financial pickles: country's facing its biggest crisis ever and I'm in the midde of getting my first very own house. No flashlight for me save for a Convoy C8 since it's on such a big sale.
I have a klarus XT2C. I love this light. It's got a smaller bezel on it but is still 1000 lumens with 2 123's. Same features as this one as well. I'm very impressed with klarus so far
thank you so much for your clear and concise review, I was shopping for a new high end flashlight and had bought into the hype of the x800 until a little research dissuaded me.so glad I came across your channel.thanks again
Too much for an old man... confusing as hell, unless you have the instructions with you each time you use the light! OMG... thanks, Ben... I'm sure that others will find this a great light possible for them. Your reviews are always most appreciated.
klarus xt11s is top top shelf. I'm getting myself one but what keeps me from putting that money on the jetbeam 3m pro ? both 1100 lumies, both look exactly alike. the controls dept imo goes to klarus. JB is a bit unconventional. a bit weird. unscrew the head, then screw it tight, then click and loosen head ... ... I'm not fond of that. so it comes down to which has a tighter ,farther beam to spot?
Sorry if this is off topic and sounds like a dumb question. I'm just starting prepping. While I know NVG Gen 1 is meant to be crap would it not be better to have even basic NVG rather than a flashlight in a SHTF scenario (as an individual of course as groups will benefit more from a flashlight). I'm considering situations where you are trying to avoid others (or even engage them in self/family defense without being seen) who might pose a danger during SHTF and thinking a flashlight would be more likely to give your position away.
+Living Survival Cheers. Awesome review as always and thanks for the help in the gear prep. Just ordered the XT11S using your code. Much appreciated Ben. Guess its time to hunt a basic NVG to go with it. I'm just making excuses to feed my gear addiction but theres worse things to be addicted to :)
Great review mate! Just one question: is the USB charging port waterproof even when the cover is off? I can't find any info about it. I know the Fenix UC35 has a waterproof charging port even without the cover. Thanks for reading, I hope you make more awesome reviews.
I have a Klarus headband but none of their torches. I like the two tail cap switches, being able to access strobe quickly, wish this torch were smaller/more pocket friendly.
I Thought it was POCKET FRIENDLY? YOU MEAN ITS NOT??..,, I Thought it was to Small which is why i wasn't planning on buying IT? However Seeing THAT YOU Just Said THAT,.. makes it Sound bigger? Like there's Still HOPE? Because if it were Beyond POCKETABLE Then i'd be buying IT,.' I Even asked People here IF It IS as big or bigger then the XT15 but no one answered me YET? Love the looks and Wish OR Hope to hear that the Head reflector is anywhere between 45 To 50mm I Would be Thrilled,
Very much enjoyed your review..very informative and well put together, a huge thumbs UP! 👍🏻 I will pass your channel on to family and associates. Keep up the good work. 💯
I'm looking to buy my son a high powered flashlight (he's a forest ranger) and would love one of these! Which one would you recommend for him. You've reviewed a few, and now I'm confused! Thank you for your review!!
I have the xt11s, its not a toy Sir! For playing around something with less power will do the Job ! You Know How Boys Are, of course they gonna blind each other in the eyes..... But with this flashlight it's not so funny !
Very nice review again. With so many of these types of lights I am becoming very confused as to which ones are best. Could you possibly compare their warranties as something else in your reviews. I have seen some of the Nitecore lights that have the springs at both ends but it depends on which models they offer. Thank You
Great review :) I have made my choice based on this video. Thanks for that. One question though. I would purchase additional batteries. I was looking at getting 3000mah batteries. Would this be ok seeing how the one that comes with the flashlight is only 2600mah? Thanks
Wow ultra fast reply. I appreciate that. Thank you sir. I will be getting a 3400mah Nitecore with the F1 charger. Thanks again and keep up the great videos!!
I have a question and Thanks again for the review and discount code. Awesome price! My question is do you know if it normal for gear best to request a picture of your id and credit card you used ? I thought I odd? Thanks from a fellow RUclipsr Shannon .
+GOT2GO PREPARED it might be. they probably get a ton of fraud. they are typically great with customers just as long as you dont mind waiting 4-6 weeks if you select the free shipping option.
Yeah that's not a problem . Thanks for the quick response . I am subscribed to your channel also great vids, check mine out when you get a chance I'd appreciate the support and if you need anything I can help with in Tennessee let me know .
Help me decide please. I am currently looking at the fenix pd35 tac, nitecore p12gt and klarus xt11s. I want a tough and reliable flashlight for outdoor use. I like the smaller fenix and nitecore models and not into rechargable since its easier for dust and water to come through and i think its a weakness. fenix and nitecore are known names for quality but im not so sure about klarus and its quality. Help is appreciated.
Always like to see how the new lights stack up to my old ArmyTek Wizard Pro ($65) @250 lumens for 8hrs. Its only 48 grams but it's not USB rechargeable. So, what would be interesting to see is some reviews on powerbanks that are made of exchangeable 18650s. So that you have the option to recharge phones etc or switch batteries out as in the case of long thru hikes like you mentioned you're gearing up for when you immediately need a newly recharged battery (such as if you were down in a cave for a long time or whatever) Powerbanks such as the Aurabuy Tomo Smart 4 X 18650. That way since powerbanks eventually lose their capacity to recharge over several years, you can just replace the batteries instead of having to buy an entirely new powerbank
+Living Survival So you just carry extra separate batteries for when you use a light for a long time and then need new batteries, or are you just hoping that doesn't happen?
Is that Model Your Showing here as big and or bigger then the XT15? I'm looking for that Shape rechargeable Single 1X18650 Or Single 26650 With firefly or Moon mode and Lastly =a Deep or Semi Deep Shinny Smooth Reflector anywhere between 40mm To 50mm Wide Reflector head? THAT SAID,,IS THERE ANY KARUS and Or Other BRANDS With Similar I Just described with these Specs for ME? ANY of you GUYS Point Me In the RIGHT DIRECTION? Thanks a bunch in Advance :-)
Good torch cool. I can recommend fenix pd35 version 2. ..... and fenix LD15R....... also Ledlenser TT. Those 3 are great. Ive tried/tested all the new olights equivellant and fenixs power torch broke day 1. Too much power in it to handle. ..... the key to a good torch is its high mode lumen level. This is just right at 500. Any more and over heat and need more power cell. Or too low and no illumination/not adequette.
Ben! You've become quite the flashlight reviewer! Do I see a Living Survival edition flashlight in your future? Lol! Nice review and that's a bad ass light!
looks awesome. Will be getting it. Does anyone know if the pen clip is reversible? Looking at the pic ...it looks like it's removable ....but can it be attached facing the opposite direction
Great light just a shame they did away with the magnetic charging connection, the usb socket will wear out just as much as removing the end cap and removing the batteries for charging. I wonder why they went down that path, I don't get it.
+Popcorn Shiner It honestly doesn't matter much if the cap falls off. I've dunked it in water without it and it works fine. Long term in water might be a different story or if you got it all full of mud. Works for me and I like the micro USB since I have those cables for just about everything.
Nice review, code is out of date, and i already agreed for google to share my age, language data :O. I was looking for a 1000-3000 Lumen flashlight for $30-60. I was not impressed with the appearance of build quality, variety of modes, and the fact they were not meant to be on a weapon. I am convinced that for the money, this is a best buy. I am 1-2 days from a purchase, any chance of getting an up to date code?
Bought my light. Everything you said it was. There are more powerful ones, but they are more expensive and larger. This one is perfect for pocket, or on the side of an M4. I never knew how dim my previous flashlights really were until now. I call it my "pocket spotlight". ---{[ Hey living survival, any idea if i need to fully deplete battery to less than 30% (Battery indicator red) before i charge it up, or can i at 30-70% (Batter indicator orange)? ]}---
Hi, I very much like your tactical videos. Would you mind mentioning feet when you do measurement? It is just a little easier for me to visualize things in your review if you said something like "300 meters or 984 feet". This would help me to focus on your vids 100% and not have to pause them to go do the conversion and come back. Some people learned in meters and can visualize in meters, but I and maybe a few others didn't. Thanks and keep up the good work!
+Living Survival damn, thanks anyway for answering. If you ever feel like adding to the collection, give the Strion a shot. I'm a Tech at an auto shop and from what I've noticed a after having worked at different shops is that the Technicians carry the Stinger as their main flashlight, Strion I don't see as much it's smaller but perfect to keep in your pocket or carried by a a holster. Again thanks for replying.
Arthur Garcia there are so many great flashlight manufacturers out there now you dont have to pay streamlight or surfire prices anymore for great or better lights. I have been using the MF Tactical Pro Tango U2 5Mode for about 4 years now as a NYS Corrections Officer and i love it. Its 1100 lumens on high and runs $99.99 and it is built like a brick shit house. Only downside no usb charging port. I also use it for hunting and tracking. I am going to buy this Klaus light though and try it out for my bugout bag since it has a usb charging port.
authur garcia there are so many better light manufacturers out there that you dont have to pay the stream light and surefire lrices anymore for great quality. I have used the MF Tactical Pro Tango U2 5Mode for quite a few years now as a NY State Corrections Officer and its fantastic. Only down side no usb charging port. its 1100 lumens and is built like a brick shit house. I am going to try this light here for my bug out bag since its usb chargeable.
C-Note Mac I guess my suspicions were right then. It was one of those sponsored links with references to people on social media saying how great it was. That alone was enough of a red flag. Though comparing the current limits of an 18650 to a standard AAA shows how shit the light source would be in comparison.
here we go everyone is reviewing this! I guess everybody is getting them and asked to review it! probably 3-4 reviews on it a day like you couldn't turn on your RUclips without wading through the Ti3, Ti4, Ti5, TC10 V2, so now here we go! The XT11s! It's priced too High!
+Mark Martin first the price is right considering it does more than a fenix or nitecore. Not sure who else reviewed it, I saw WeAllJuggleKnives to a unboxing of sorts but didn't show any modes or anything.
EPILEPSY WARNING FLASHING LIGHTS AT TIMES. I am pretty shocked at how few of these torch reviewing channels don't give people warning prior to strobing or just flashing the torch lights, I don't have epilepsy myself but I know it can and does kill people.
seems to me someone should put these lights up against each other. maybe I will. must buy them both first. rather see the experts do ut. klarus XT11S 1100 LUMENS _ VS _ JETBEAM 3M PRO 1100 LUMENS
a high intensity light is NOT turbo. Turbo is a high pressure propeller to ram air into an engine....I am bring peevish....& I do think "turbo " for light intensity is just stupid.
Living Survival : just started...😉. Tho it's probably futile. I didn't know that the fools all use " Turbo ". Why not, " Maximum brightness, " or "brightest." ?
so who is making money selling Klarus XT11S claiming that it's worth $80.00 and of course you can get special deal on it, just like all of the other scammers on tv and the internet selling these same type flashlights and claiming they are always worth much more than you pay.
You must not know much about Klarus. Recently ordered a few Nitecore MH27s for my BIL and his buddies and I am glad to say I didn't ordered it for myself.
+Ja Si I wouldn't know how to compare the two since I haven't yet to get my hands on the XT11S but judging from this review, I prefer the XT11S over the MH27. MH27 is too heavy and UI is horrible in my opinion. The beam also has a lot of artifacts since it has the RGD integrated.
Sigh how times can one over us the word tactical. its a flash light its not a tactical flashlight, there is no tactical mode or super tactical mode come on dude we know your the type wearing the big tacticool watch with the tacticool cargo pant type but over using the word is ridiculous. its not more special if it was just named the black flashlight verse tacticool flash light
maybe you should look up the word. a light with easy access to strobe which MANY police officers use upon entry to a building provides a "tactical" advantage.

used it this past weekend camping. love it.
I can attest to Klarus's build quality having used the XT11 continually since 2011 :)
;)

thanks Kevin.
I could see that you really like this flashlight... Outstanding description...
+Carlos Sepulveda yeah its nice.
Too much for an old man... confusing as hell, unless you have the instructions with you each time you use the light! OMG... thanks, Ben... I'm sure that others will find this a great light possible for them. Your reviews are always most appreciated.

For some reason this light no longer comes with the tactical ring. Looks so much better with it.
One of the finest lights i have.
;)
that strobe is insane man.
Ben do you think it's better quality then the mh12 from nitecore ? Your opinion on holding it and using it.
+Arthur Akopian yep
+Larry Banks i should have compared it to that one.
That's a sweet flashlight ... Im mounting my Nitecore on my Ar and doing some testing to see how tactical it can get
+El Rabbit's Tactical, Reviewsl Nice.
Great review mate! Just one question: is the USB charging port waterproof even when the cover is off? I can't find any info about it. I know the Fenix UC35 has a waterproof charging port even without the cover. Thanks for reading, I hope you make more awesome reviews.
they typically are fine with water. just not dust/sand.
The thing that comes off when you take off the tail light, why doesn't mine tighten? It keeps spinning around.
I have a Klarus headband but none of their torches. I like the two tail cap switches, being able to access strobe quickly, wish this torch were smaller/more pocket friendly.
I Thought it was POCKET FRIENDLY? YOU MEAN ITS NOT??..,,

nice.
Very much enjoyed your review..very informative and well put together, a huge thumbs UP! 👍🏻 I will pass your channel on to family and associates. Keep up the good work. 💯
One main feature of the double springs is that you may use a flat head IMR battery
I don't think you mention run time but perhaps i missed that. I don't like the shining torch at camera footage showing brightness, just hurts my eyes.
Now that's a badass light
+DpKxREVO yes it is.
Where did you say I can buy one?
Thank you for a very thorough review of this light. Do they offer a pressure switch for it to use on a rifle? And do you have the coupon code for it?
+SOAPMAN 805 use code livingsurvival

awesome! I am definitely interested in this tactical flashlight, thanks for the review brother.
+Alberto Soto thanks.
Great review :) I have made my choice based on this video. Thanks for that. One question though. I would purchase additional batteries. I was looking at getting 3000mah batteries. Would this be ok seeing how the one that comes with the flashlight is only 2600mah? Thanks
yep the mah is just the capacity. make sure you get a decent brand and button top protected. klarus, olight, nitecore, fenix, thrunite, panasonic etc.
Wow ultra fast reply. I appreciate that. Thank you sir. I will be getting a 3400mah Nitecore with the F1 charger. Thanks again and keep up the great videos!!

Help me decide please.
I am currently looking at the fenix pd35 tac, nitecore p12gt and klarus xt11s. I want a tough and reliable flashlight for outdoor use. I like the smaller fenix and nitecore models and not into rechargable since its easier for dust and water to come through and i think its a weakness. fenix and nitecore are known names for quality but im not so sure about klarus and its quality. Help is appreciated.
klarus is one of my favorite brands. all three are good lights my preference is the xt11s or pd35.

Klarus it will be :)
btw, always check in here for the best info. dude, your the best promo man in the biz
Always like to see how the new lights stack up to my old ArmyTek Wizard Pro ($65) @250 lumens for 8hrs. Its only 48 grams but it's not USB rechargeable. So, what would be interesting to see is some reviews on powerbanks that are made of exchangeable 18650s. So that you have the option to recharge phones etc or switch batteries out as in the case of long thru hikes like you mentioned you're gearing up for when you immediately need a newly recharged battery (such as if you were down in a cave for a long time or whatever) Powerbanks such as the Aurabuy Tomo Smart 4 X 18650. That way since powerbanks eventually lose their capacity to recharge over several years, you can just replace the batteries instead of having to buy an entirely new powerbank
+Austin Dory I'd rather buy a new bank after a few years. Technology keeps improving.
+Living Survival So you just carry extra separate batteries for when you use a light for a long time and then need new batteries, or are you just hoping that doesn't happen?
Austin Dory Yes i mainly use 18650 and rechargeable AAA so I always have a few spares not too far away in addition to a battery bank.
This tactical light can stop an attacker? I mean, will it leave him temporarily blind?
in the dark, a temporary blast of strobe will disorient you for a moment. a moment may be all you need.
Are you going to review the Firstlight Torq or T-max?, I'm interested in your take on them.
+spikekrossa never heard of them.
+Living Survival Seen them at Shot Show, Pretty neat light. Can be used Has a handheld weapon light, and American built.
Great review on that light BEN . The price is good also
Just ordered one after this!!!
Is that Model Your Showing here as big and or bigger then the XT15?
I'm looking for that Shape rechargeable Single 1X18650 Or Single 26650 With firefly or Moon mode and Lastly =a Deep or Semi Deep Shinny Smooth Reflector anywhere between 40mm To 50mm Wide Reflector head?
THAT SAID,,IS THERE ANY KARUS and Or Other BRANDS With Similar I Just described with these Specs for ME?
ANY of you GUYS Point Me In the RIGHT DIRECTION?
Thanks a bunch in Advance :-)
check out candlepowerforums...overload of information on lights.
it's sweet and it hooks to my Sig P226
I think Ima get this one, thanks for the review
Good torch cool. I can recommend fenix pd35 version 2. ..... and fenix LD15R....... also Ledlenser TT. Those 3 are great. Ive tried/tested all the new olights equivellant and fenixs power torch broke day 1. Too much power in it to handle. ..... the key to a good torch is its high mode lumen level. This is just right at 500. Any more and over heat and need more power cell. Or too low and no illumination/not adequette.
Ben! You've become quite the flashlight reviewer! Do I see a Living Survival edition flashlight in your future? Lol! Nice review and that's a bad ass light!
+sevenrayz lol maybe
awesome review bro. wish I could have that here in the phils.
really nice flash light. got mines. thanks
Nate Green that's funny but racist
Do you have any more gearbest codes by any chance? Would be nice if so :)
looks awesome. Will be getting it. Does anyone know if the pen clip is reversible? Looking at the pic ...it looks like it's removable ....but can it be attached facing the opposite direction
+Mike S reversible but the light would overhang he bill of a cap.
+Living Survival Thanks ...thought it might. Will be getting anyway.
Does the turbo mode step down after a few minutes?
+Damen0530 yes, has overheat protection which would step it down. its called their smart ITS temperature control system.
How much does charge last on a full night use ??
This is a great light !!
+Dwane Thomas fo sho

+Living Survival Also, You Have Some Awesome Videos And Reviews
all the good review it's between 12:00 to 16:00 minutes just
Thank you Ben
Great light just a shame they did away with the magnetic charging connection, the usb socket will wear out just as much as removing the end cap and removing the batteries for charging. I wonder why they went down that path, I don't get it.

Great looking light and review . You mentioned a coupon code , is that still available?
How do I PM you for a code?
if the code in the video doesn't work you can try code livingsurvival. if that doesn't work they are sold out at that price.
+Living Survival ok thanks , I didn't hear you say a code in video I even watched twice lol. I'll try you channel name
Does anyone know the difference between the klarus xt11gt - ( xhp35 hi e4 ) and the xhp35 hi d4?
Can you buy a pressure switch for this flashlight?
Jacob Lynn yes
can i use for bike light ?
Awesome review bud! Thanks! :D
top notch review as always bro.
hi..great review! thanks! on gearbest they say the code expired...any other code we can use? cheers
try livingsurvival
still says it is expired
+Living Survival whats a code i can use???
if I'm not too late, try code BLF on fasttech.com
Learn English please. In both instances it should be "your" not "you're".
Nice review, code is out of date, and i already agreed for google to share my age, language data :O. I was looking for a 1000-3000 Lumen flashlight for $30-60. I was not impressed with the appearance of build quality, variety of modes, and the fact they were not meant to be on a weapon. I am convinced that for the money, this is a best buy. I am 1-2 days from a purchase, any chance of getting an up to date code?
No updated code but you can use my amazon link for the best deal.
watched a sootch00 video with a stainless steel Crenulated attack Bezel replacement for self defense. $20-50 but omg

is this flashlight better than the Strion made by Streamlite?

If you ever feel like adding to the collection, give the Strion a shot.

I have used the MF Tactical Pro Tango U2 5Mode for quite a few years now as a NY State Corrections Officer and its fantastic. Only down side no usb charging port. its 1100 lumens and is built like a brick shit house. I am going to try this light here for my bug out bag since its usb chargeable.
I love this video :D!!
Pretty sure the wide bottom button is for preforming code.
Again you and your fucked up language. It should be your, not you're.
what is the price?????
check the link in the description for current pricing.

XT11S OR XT11GT
I saw a tactical flashlight online that takes 3 AAA batteries. I'm guessing it's not as good as they claim it to be.
👎Don't get it, a gas station flashlight would be better.
C-Note Mac
I guess my suspicions were right then. It was one of those sponsored links with references to people on social media saying how great it was. That alone was enough of a red flag.
Though comparing the current limits of an 18650 to a standard AAA shows how shit the light source would be in comparison.
both have the xpl hi e3... xt11s vs jetbeam 3m pro
here we go everyone is reviewing this! I guess everybody is getting them and asked to review it! probably 3-4 reviews on it a day like you couldn't turn on your RUclips without wading through the Ti3, Ti4, Ti5, TC10 V2, so now here we go! The XT11s! It's priced too High!
+Mark Martin first the price is right considering it does more than a fenix or nitecore. Not sure who else reviewed it, I saw WeAllJuggleKnives to a unboxing of sorts but didn't show any modes or anything.
EPILEPSY WARNING FLASHING LIGHTS AT TIMES. I am pretty shocked at how few of these torch reviewing channels don't give people warning prior to strobing or just flashing the torch lights, I don't have epilepsy myself but I know it can and does kill people.
coupon code doesn't work? ?
+Joeycrack84 working on it and ill post a new one when I hear back.
+Joeycrack84 send me a private message
The promo code is expired... I would have bought the light if the code worked. Oh well their loss.
+Eslamizar private message me for a code.
seems to me someone should put these lights up against each other. maybe I will. must buy them both first. rather see the experts do ut.
klarus XT11S 1100 LUMENS _ VS _ JETBEAM 3M PRO 1100 LUMENS
a high intensity light is NOT turbo. Turbo is a high pressure propeller to ram air into an engine....I am bring peevish....& I do think "turbo " for light intensity is just stupid.
tell that to ALL the light mfrs'
Living Survival : just started...😉. Tho it's probably futile. I didn't know that the fools all use " Turbo ".
Why not, " Maximum brightness, " or "brightest." ?
You know what you can use to power that flashlight?.... AN ANKERPOWERHOUSE!
+sportnatude23 LMFAO
so who is making money selling Klarus XT11S claiming that it's worth $80.00 and of course you can get special deal on it, just like all of the other scammers on tv and the internet selling these same type flashlights and claiming they are always worth much more than you pay.
they are quality lights. much more so than cheaper options out there.
that's not a weapon mount ring, it's a anti roll/cigar ring
+Tim T yeah...i always call it the weapon mount ring lol so when your mount comes loose it doesn't slip out. I'll get it right next time ;) thanks.
+Living Survival no prob. great review as always
pla pla pla pla...
This flash light just screams nitecore to me. I don't know why.
you could say that for just about any 18650 flashlight. they all are similar.
Great info! Can you send the code to an email address?
At $79.95 to costly for me.
+BUDDY LIGHT Use the coupon code below.
to much talking
hmm just seems like a rip off of the mh27 by nitecore
You must not know much about Klarus. Recently ordered a few Nitecore MH27s for my BIL and his buddies and I am glad to say I didn't ordered it for myself.
I am ignorant as to Klarus products. Is it that much better than the mh27?
+Ja Si I wouldn't know how to compare the two since I haven't yet to get my hands on the XT11S but judging from this review, I prefer the XT11S over the MH27. MH27 is too heavy and UI is horrible in my opinion. The beam also has a lot of artifacts since it has the RGD integrated.
Sigh how times can one over us the word tactical. its a flash light its not a tactical flashlight, there is no tactical mode or super tactical mode come on dude we know your the type wearing the big tacticool watch with the tacticool cargo pant type but over using the word is ridiculous. its not more special if it was just named the black flashlight verse tacticool flash light
maybe you should look up the word. a light with easy access to strobe which MANY police officers use upon entry to a building provides a "tactical" advantage.
