Convoy S3 show less visible damage than well-known brands proving that quality products don't have to be expensive.

Convoy switch and glass lens are also very easy to replace and spare parts are also very affordable so Convoy flashlight is definitely the best value for money in terms of durability and repairability.

I like how you got right into the testing without a lot of talking or introductory BS. Very entertaining and informative!

The 50 ft drop is definitely a good indication of the build quality. I’m glad to see those budget brands representing!

Very comprehensive and detailed evaluation method! Tested with cold and warm water which we have not tried! Thank you for providing us with a more complete method of flashlight testing, which will benefit our flashlight improvement. It's a pity that the P83 didn't pass your test, but that's to be expected since the P83 isn't suitable for such brute force tests. P83 is a daily flashlight that is more suitable for duty, and its structure with plastic connectors （red&blue modules）is not suitable for such violent tests . But it is satisfied with the 1 meters waterproof and 2 meters drop resistance that we advertise. This is guaranteed. 😃

Those were some pretty harsh tests. It was nice to see an Olight get through all them, since I edc a few.

I really like how you combined your own ideas with our suggestions to test this lights.
Wurkkos, wuben and convoy are surprisingly durable, especially for the price. Olight also held up really well and I did not expect that but it's probably because so many people love to hate the brand.
I also have to say that I discovered acebeam and armytek through your channel and now slowly but surely they become my favorite brands. Thanks for that.

AWESOME VIDEO! Would have loved to see a Streamlight in your torture test video. I own a Streamlight HLX and once had to use it to break glass, it took a few shots of everything I got. The flashlight held together wonderfully.

[TopDog]

Wow I really love these torture test videos on flashlights. You really get a sense of what is well made and what is not. Congrats on the growth of your channel.

[TheTreeCamper]

This deserves more views. Thank you for this!

[chasemitchell]

I personally own an olight and was glad to see it preform so well. thank you for making excellent videos.

[Sargent]

I'm pleasantly surprised to see how well the wurkoss did, especially being as heavy as it is. Thank you for the great video as always, the 50ft drop is a great way to see what manufacturers really go above and beyond quality wise.

[predathor]

Awesome crash test. Like that 15m dropping test and that fire test is also good :D I like that Armytek dealt with that so great. Thank you. 👍

[FluttuantChicken]

nice one, would have loved to see fenix and streamlight too! hopefully convoy starts making usb-c and forward tactical switches flashlights too

[Reflect]

Great review mate. I think there should be more like this with "real life" scenarios on how brands & models can actually hold up. Rather than review's with a few beam shots and basically a read out of the spec sheet. Nice job!

[PartyTurkey]

You’re honestly the best flashlight reviewer. Anytime I’m looking for info on a light or new suggestions I always come here first

[TrailAtlas]

That hurt watching you drop lights from so high up. I'm honestly impressed any of them survived. Congrats on 20k!

[MikeDancy]

dang, I was really rooting for that Thrunite. That is a serious test on these flashlights. Thanks for the video.

[danishfawaz]

Not surprised by the Armytek at all. In 2013, i rmbr discussing abt how it could withstand 10 metres of drop at least

[adamwalker]

Super great video, this help in deciding the flashlight i want. I’m getting olight baton 3, thank you

[Ben-rekj]

Nice to see someone reviewing lights based on real world use and not just enthusiast metrics like tint and beam pattern. Really appreciate how unbiased you are too.
