Wurkkos TD04 3000 Lumen Flashlight - Does It Measure Up?

[@L5-SAR]

Naming of the two modes varies between the web site and the user's manual. I tend to focus on the latter. Hope it does not cause any confusion. I should have reviewed the ZeroAir review of this light before the field test, but I'm in the process of moving and was in a hurry. Their measurements showed output notably below the stated peak. At least I won't have to make an appointment with the eye doctor any time soon :) Thank you.

Hahah your comedic input is well executed 😂 you are one of the best field testers on KZbin keep them coming!

[@L5-SAR]

Thank you. Unfortunately, I must take care of some serious family issues in the short term so public reviews are on hold. I only have bandwidth to produce content for the SAR Team (private community) at present.

Great test! Thank you.

[@L5-SAR]

Thanks. Glad you found it helpful.

Did you state what headlamp you're using and I just missed it? Maybe next time you could write it down in the description. I just discovered your chain so I'm sorry to ask if it is common knowledge around here! GREAT job with the beamshots btw... 👍

[@L5-SAR]

I generally don't as the specific model is often not relevant to the product being reviewed and it's a different manufacturer. I do, however, respond if someone specifically asks. Fenix HP30R V2. Thank you.

I found it a little baffling that the lower light levels seemed to be very good and usable but then the highest levels fell short of expectations. I wonder if it’s just an issue with yours or a general thing?

[@L5-SAR]

I checked the ZeroAir review and their measurements showed a significant underperformance vs the stated peak lumens, most notable at the high end. I thought they might have sent me a dud, but that does not seem to be the case. Thank you.

[@666JGNotts]

@@L5-SAR OK thanks for that reply. It is a shame about the higher outputs being somewhat lacking. I do think though that the low and mid outputs make this very usable for someone who requires that type of light.

[@L5-SAR]

Yes, that's why I said that people need to match the demonstrated output up against their actual needs. They are carrying a light out into the field, not a spec sheet :). And, it demonstrates the value of field testing. Thanks again.
