[@johnshottie4415]

Just got mine in the mail. On high this thing is ridiculously bright. The button is pretty strong so I wouldn’t worry much about it turning on unintentionally in your pocket. Well made and very solid in the hand. Strong magnet is super handy to free up your hands to get things done. The battery gauge is awesome. The only con I found was that the clip for a hat is very tight making it difficult to get on the bill of a cap. I bent mine slightly to make it work a little better. 100% recommended.

[@malachicook9038]

i wish the intro could be as subtle as the outro, you and that music ran me for my money. that chip on the flashlight made me wanna cry I hated seeing that drop so much lol but great review I think you may secretly be sponsored by them.

[@nathanpotter8569]

I also just got that ad. Would love to compare to my coast XPH34R... but I already have my headlamp.

[@gigaphonicon]

That reversible clip is a brilliant idea i usually end up with mine clipped on the bill of my hat at a goofy angle and almost blocking some view. Talk about much needed engineering.

[@ucitymetalhead]

Those clips are awesome have em on lots of my lights.

[@nathanpotter8569]

Me? I'm a headlamp guy, I originally had a husky 1004-592-729 headlamp that was 550 lumens . I loved it. I also got a few for friends and family. Unfortunately my dog chewed up mine. I tried the 700 lumens Milwaukee headlamp with the true view ... not as bright as that husky was ... returned it. Now I have a coast XPH34R which puts out 1025 lumens in high mode. And has a 2075 in "turbo" mode which is a timed output before it drops back down. It also has a focused beam and a appears to have a bullseye light in the middle. I'm happy with it and use it every night.

[@train3827]

Vince Milwaukee makes a lot of good lighting but my goto is the Olight baton 3 premium edition. You can charge it in your pocket or on the go. Has all the options of the Milwaukee with 4 modes and a 1200 lumens. I would love to see a head to head between the two pocket flash lights. I appreciate you sharing Milwaukee's new offering.

[@Jonathan562213]

Yes olight is the best

[@Consumername]

I just got one but im worried about it getting dirty and messing up the charging case since I'm a plumber. Do you think that might be a problem?

[@t-love8751]

Love that torch! One other feature that would be fantastic would be for the magnetic back to articulate so you can point the light at your target. Either that or an additional side light that points 90 degrees off the side. I currently have a Klein that has the magnetic back and can’t count how often I need the light to point off to the side because the only metal available to stick the magnet shines the light away from my work. It would also be cool if they had an insulated version for those who could accidentally come in contact with high voltage. Thanks VCG!

[@Borescoped]

Looks like a nice light, and I like how they added the focusing capabilities finally, but I’ve already got the bigger one.

[@brandonroberts3441]

Olight baton 3 is half the size, twice the lumens and wireless charging. And it’s only $60

[@paulschacht9777]

Great info & glad you kept all the unboxing footage! Here’s my tip: Get some 110 lb button magnets that come with double-sided tape (like to stick to a wall and then magnetically hold tools) and stick one on the end of your old big brother EDC light - then you can fish-out the little bro EDC light a little easier next time you dunk it in the 3 ft pipe! !! 🤓

[@invisible-_-kid]

I've been having their 100 lumen pen light as my EDC cause non of their lights at the time wasn't was i was looking for but this along with magnets and cap attachment and 500 lumen is definitely a selling point for me definitely getting this asap to replace my current one thanks VCG!!!!

[@msim28]

After using coast and the others, milwaukee has the best light color. It makes a huge difference when troubleshooting in electrical.

[@RickEstrada]

I literally waited for your review before buying one. If it’s good enough to be your EDC, then it’s good enough to be mine 👍🏻

[@operator8014]

I think the reason that kinda boring flashlights like this become so popular with us is purely the name. I can't deal with trying out the 500 different garbage brands to find the 4 or 5 great brands. With Milwaukee, we know we're getting something that's realistically just as good as the very best brands available. Sad, but true for most tradesmen.

There’s a whole world of amazing flashlights that you’re missing out on. Olight flashlights will blow your mind. The Warrior Mini 2 will easily be the flashlight you put in your pocket everyday. It’s kind of like comparing a Milwaukee Fastback to a Spyderco. The Warrior Mini 2 is cheaper, brighter, has a better charging system, better quality anodizing, smaller form factor etc.

Fenix flashlights are awsome too 5 light output levels 1600 lumens for the pd36 it is a awsome flashlight I don’t know if I got defective o light flashlights but I had issues with the buttons on three olight flashlights never had that happen with fenix

CLASS LEADING TECHNOLOGY” Comment section(2018, 2019, 2020,2021): “hey Vince, you should check out these better flashlights. These have a magnetic tail cap and are rechargeable, much brighter, and it takes years and years rather than months to wear the finish off. It’s also half the size of the maglite you keep in your pocket now. Also uses a tail switch so it doesn’t accidentally turn on in your pocket. I guess Milwaukee will catch up to the good stuff eventually. Good luck with your state of the art Milwaukee flashlight.

It looks like a great light but the inability to change the battery makes it a no go. Not only in a day's work, but also like you mention if by accident in turns on then you are out a light until it recharges which I guarantee that is longer than just replacing a battery. Also means going to be buying a new flashlight ever year or two depending on use. It's just not worth the hassle. Still thank you for the great content! Keep up the good work and all the best!
