    Thank you for this very instructive video! The differens between an old flashlight and a modern LED flashlight is indeed enormous. I have updated my very old 3D Maglite to a LED version myself, and experienced this. By the way I have also very good experience of a modern Thrunite flashlight as well, so thank you Thrunite for your flashlights and for making the kind of videos possible.

    I have several Thrunite flashlights and as far as the LEDs go I think all of them are comparable but where I think Thrunite stands out is the switch. I hate lights with crappy switches that make it flicker or not get full brightness. Thrunite has the best switches I've ever seen.

    Kind of amazing that anyone would still use incandescent bulbs instead of LEDs. Or single-use lead batteries instead of lithium, or at least NiMH. The Maglite is an antique; flashlights with two or three 26650s and one or more LEDs in a similar form factor are superior in every way.
