Great flashlight. I just bought one March 26 -- after seeing it in the store -- before I saw your review. I paid $29.99 at COSTCO in Sarasota, Florida.
I have the same. I bought it in January and charged once before using. Just last week I tried to use it but it doesn't turn on. So I charge it for several hours but it still doesn't turn on. It doesn't charge anymore no matter what kind of charger or for how long. There is an in and out usb C in the bottom but they don't work.
Thank you for the review and break down of the features, good video. I just subscribed to your channel.
Thank you for the fine review and Information! I purchased this light for $29.99, and in my area nine AA batteries of good quality sell for approximately nine dollars, effectively making this a $20 miracle.
The weight, fit, finish, styling, for your average middle-aged flashlight wielding man is excellent.
For the money this is a magnificent floodlight. Best way I could describe it is if you were at a typical high school football field during a night game and the lights went out, you could put this light on high and finish the game. No exaggeration.
In the road it is equivalent to a powerful set of late model headlights without the boundary limitations.
Highly recommended.
Great review. Thank you, Mr. 😊
Wish it focused to a tighter beam. I probably would have refrained from purchasing had I known. That being said im going to keep it.
its very bright and well built but its not a spot light its a flood light you cant shine it to a long range spot but i love it just the same
Great review!
The beam does not focus to a narrow beam so not good for long distance.
Awesome find I will pick one of these up when I'm at Costco next. Looks like a beast of a flashlight. Another option with the power bank feature is the Wurkkos WK15. It is pretty awesome. I went on a quest to find a small, tough waterproof power bank to take bike packing and camping and came across it. I bought two of them I liked it so much. They have a 5000mah battery so I can charge my phone 2.5 times using both flashlights. For camping having more flashlights as redundancy is ideal! The other thing I really like is that it uses green and red LEDs for charging and battery life indicators. Its the international standard for full and empty and very easy to understand the state of the battery. The WK15 having has a good spread of lumen modes with 1, 10, 100, 550, 1500, 3000 and awesome run time is amazing in those lower modes. I use the 100 lumens mode when doing things camping and it's plenty bright and lasts 32 hours in that mode.
I got mine for 29.99 at Costco! A really nice flashlight!
Great review and very thorough. Thank you for posting this. This review led me to purchase the AE-1028 as my first optic. It's obviously as good as the other well-known brands my husband bought for almost $300,and I compared the prices on eBay and the EPN website, and the website prices are cheaper. Nice review, help me a lot. Thanks 😊
I wish I had read all the comments about how it is not 5000 Lumen and does not focus to a spot. So, I bought one. And now I have to return it. I hope Costco understands
Bought mine yesterday at $29.99 Cali price...very impressed, very bright!
G’day,good review. Bought ours yesterday (before I searched on here for info) at Costco in Queensland, Australia 🇦🇺for $69. We’re happy with it for around the house and car 😉 use.
I most absurdly hate maglite, but this infinity doesn't even compare, it's just bright up close and too long of a light body, if you dont mind the wait time if 10 days shipped to your door consider the sofirn C8L which has both a wide pattern and longer throw plus its rechargeable, ( $ 40 ) nice video! I just think this infinity light is more in lines of the harbor freight lights
I bought one today for $29.99
I like it
I bought this today from Costco. Came home, charged the battery and was filled with DISAPPOINTMENT. I was in public safety for over 30 years and I’ve been a flashlight geek all my life. No way this is 5K lumens on the rechargeable pack and there’s no spot. You have flood and huge flood. This is definitely not a light for public safety people who need distance. I’ve bought several of the Duracell disappointments from Costco and I’m done buying any Costco flashlight. This would be decent for an emergency but if you’re a flashlight geek, stick with Fenix or similar.
TOTALLY AGREED! PHOOKIN DISAPPOINTED!
I think its great, especially compared to ones I found on amazon. I'm not a flashlight geek by any means, but to each their own situation. I use mine for home use, when fixing things, or going out to the shed. If i wanted one for public work or safety I would shop at a safety store for one more suited to my field and environments. I see a lot less quality ones around for a lot more money. But I'll definitely look into this Fenix, I've never heard of them where I live. Costco seems to have a very good return policy. I did just buy a light meter because I'm curious to get exact readings now.
I agree. Very disappointed to only be able to go from wide Zoom to very wide Zoom.
I was thinking more about the flashlight and it dawn on me that with the lumens it produce, the optics will not allow it to zoom in tighter without burning up the lens and reflector. The Coast rechargabe 5000 lumen flashlight that was also sold in Costco also had the zoom deficiency. It's a $29 product after all.
Thanks saved me 30$ cuz I have it in my hand like 5000 Lumens for 30 sounds like a lie
$29.99 here in California
i got this the other day in costco by impulse. was not disappointed. 5,000 they weren't kidding.
I just bought this today for $30. I think it’s a good deal it looks quality and I like the phone charging option in an emergency along with the batteries essentially making it a $20 flashlight.
anything that comes with batteries is usually Duracell because they are cheap junk. It’s not a matter of if they will leak but when and then your light will be ruined.
i just got that flashlight a couple days ago.. its freakin bright.
Tested both (item # 1717984) flashlights = both failed. Why you might ask?
Feit & Infinity are made out of metal = very cold to hold in the winter & very hot in the summer
Feit does NOT zoom. Faulty advertisement
Infinity is battery hungry. Stay away from AA flashlight. No real USB C charging system
Feit has a good 26650 while Infinity has a dated 18650.
Both luminosity decreased greatly at 3 meters & beyond. No way 3K to 5K specs.
Check with a light meter & you will surely be disappointed from 3 meters & +.
Came across this bad boy after grabbing a slice of $1.99 pizza at Costco before I saw your video!
Great video overview! I just subscribed. I don’t care if it has 5k lumens or fewer. The thing is super bright! It’s perfect for checking my backyard at night since we have a lot of large critters roaming around. Also, it is a good self defense device!😂
Mine was priced at $2.99 in SoCal instore.
$2.99??? Where???
@@wilmatitzgreaux5086 Oops! Good catch. Thx. Typo…should be $29.99
In-store New Mexico 29.99
Will it take 3 D batteries in place of the AA battery pack? Don’t understand why they would design it to take so many AA batteries.
No it doesn't. I have no idea either, maybe because not many people buy D cells anymore? Just a guess.
The internal battery is 7.4 volts and probably closer to 9 volts fully charged. 3 d batteries would give you 4.5 volts. 6 would give it 9 volts.
I bought at Costco today (2/22/2024) for $29.99 in California.
I was at Costco yesterday in northern Colorado and saw this flashlight for only $29.99 and thought that was a very good price that includes a rechargeable Lithium battery pack (~$10.00 alone) and 9 Duracell AA batteries in its own pack too. The rechargeable pack says it is 7.4V@4,000 mAH. The Duracell pack has only 3 batteries in series which means (3 x 1.5V) its voltage is only 4.5V. I do love the 4 blue runtime lights so you know when to charge to pack. It does come with an USB "C" cable for charging. I twisted the end back of the flashlight and saw the USB port and plugged it into my computer. I was then looking for a charging light and didn't see any. How will I know when the pack is charged? Then I saw that the USB port said "OUT 5V/1A". What is this all about? A USB "C" connector is both in and out for voltage. I took the battery out and discovered that is has the ports built-in to the pack. Then I discovered that the battery pack has 2 USB "C" ports and the other one, opposite the first one, reads "IN 5V/1.5A). Why the 2 ports? To charge the battery pack you need to plug your voltage source into the "IN 5V/1.5A" port and a red led then comes on. When the pack is charged that LED turns green. The LED is visible on the exterior of the flashlight so no disassembly is required to view its status. One port is to charge the battery pack and thee other to power your phone. This way the flashlight won't discharge your cell phone. If you push and hold the power button for 3 seconds, the flashlight goes into a power safety mode and won't return to normal operation until the power button is again pushed and held for 3 seconds. For 30 bucks, the Infinity X1 is a pretty good flashlight for the price and I love mine.
In an emergency situation you can use the rechargeable pack to power/charge your phone or other device if you need. So it kind of works like a power bank.
@@Brad-zilla Yes, I know now about the cell phone charging using the USB "C" port called "OUT 5V/1A". It is also heavy enough to be used for a defensive purpose is needed like to defend yourself from an attacking dog. I did notice that the zoom feature did not change the intensity of the beam at all. All it does is narrow the width of the beam. So it is more a set it and forget it feature. I did check Costco yesterday for the selling price online and it was $39.99 so the $29.99 price in instore only.
It’s $29.99 as of 3-2-24. I was shocked came with 9 Duracell batteries.
$29.99 at Costco in Salem, Oregon.
0:03 What is that green LED lantern thing on your left by the flashlight?
I'm not sure, I didn't really look at it to be honest. On website this is the closest thing I could find. www.costco.ca/duracell-2000-lumen-tri-power-lantern.product.4000221446.html
@@Brad-zilla yes, that’s the one!
I bought one and it overheats when I turn it on. I can' t even hold 90% of the base.
I just picked one up in Arizona for $29.99
I just picked one up in Oregon for $29.99
It does not focus to a spot, so you can't use it to illuminate things a long way off. Disappointed, I'm taking it back
When I turn it on, it goes through three levels, starts to flash, and then turns off. So I cannot get a straight beam yet. I tried to call, and all they do is collect personal data to call me back. I wasn't ok with that, and I don't know that they will, but because of that weird process I thought less of them for wanting so much information just to answer a question. It felt like full name, address, phone number, and email to sell it, to me. Do you know how to get a straight beam when I turn it on?
I can't remember if there was a film protector over the lens or not. I know if you cover the lens, it senses it and shuts off right away. You are holding the power button down for 3 seconds to turn it on correct?
@@Brad-zilla I found out to hold it 5 seconds. I was only holding it 3 seconds. It works now, thanks so much!
iI bought one yesterday and they were on sale for $29.95!
Even better then! Was it USA or Canada?
I bought 2, and yes $29.99. It’s a good flashlight 🔦.
@@Brad-zillaUSA, California
@@Alexmorales-ro5zg yeah i think online its more money because they calculate shipping into it. In store always cheaper it seems.
Is it me or does this thing look like a light saber a little bit?
It does
Just watched the whole video trying to figure out why this was turning off so quick right our of the box...So hold down the power button 3 seconds to turn the Power Lock On/Off. $29.99 in store and $39.99 shipped. Finally found this in my Costco...Had 577 in stock 100 miles away and Zero in stock at my Club when these first came out...WTF Costco🤷♂
I’m having the same problem. Mine won’t stay on
Can you please explain why the flashlight keeps turning off after a few seconds
Is it still in the packaging? It auto shuts off if the light is blocked by something.
@@Brad-zilla ok. I just found out that you need to hold down the on off switch for three seconds.
Thank you 🙏
Why does it keep blinking and turning off. 🤷🏽♂️
Safety so it doesn't drain on accident. U gotta hold it for 3 seconds or so n I'm here to learn how to use the damn thing lol😂
Probably runs the batteries down in about 3 min
It needs a more narrow beam
It’s a flood light not a thrower that’s why it only goes 180 meters haha
I have a narrow beam as well this works well for the money
I agree….but still love it
$130 in Australian Costco not worth it
mine doesn't charge anymore
That is usually the good thing about Costco, bring it back and exchange it for a new one!
Got one as a xmas present. I work in security graveyard shift. Rechargeable light is very bright but too wide focused on both settings. Also too long and heavy for security work. How long before the recharge batteries start to wear out ? AA batteries are not very bright at all for 9 AA's. A 10" flashlight would be better for security work with all the same features. This one at 13" is too long.
5000 lumens....no way
Don't buy it. I did and returned it because it won't focus to a spot beam
