Lumintop Tool AA 3.0 – 900 Lumen OSRAM LED EDC Pocket Flashlight
The Lumintop Tool AA 3.0 is a pocket-sized dual-fuel EDC flashlight that runs on either a common AA cell or a 14500 rechargeable Li-ion, putting out up to 900 lumens on the higher-voltage cell. At 89.5mm long and just 23.5g without a battery, it disappears in a pocket, a toolbox, or a pack, and the aircraft-grade aluminum body carries a type III hard-anodized finish with IP68 sealing. A USB-C rechargeable 14500 battery is included.
