The LED flashlight has always been an important tool that should be included in your emergency kits for your homes. It is a tool that has proven itself to be incredibly vital both during trying times (such as storms, earthquakes, and the like) or if you’re just an outdoors enthusiast that loves camping. It is why you should have at least one in your home because being prepared is always a good idea.

The LED Flashlight
Despite the sudden popularity of the LED headlight, handheld flashlights are still considered to be the preferred style of most people. This is the go to device for people if they want the strongest portable beam of light available. Of course since the creation of Light-Emitting Diode or LED technology was created the luminosity of flashlights have greatly improved.
Now that you have a bit of understanding of the flashlight, how do you choose the right flashlight for your needs? Here are five key features of flashlight performance you should look out for:
No. 1: Light output. This is typically measured in lumens, which is considered to be the means of estimate of the intensity of the light that comes from the LED headlamp and flashlight. This is a great comparison tool that could identify the brightness of the flashlight, however, it is important that you should also consider the beam intensity, distance, and type of it.
No. 2: Beam Distance. Check how far the light will be able to shine before the brightness reduces to a comparable size of a full moon. Why a full moon? This is because it is considered to be a safe and careful light intensity for outdoor travel.
No. 3: Run Time. This is how long it will take for the light output to drop at 10% of the supposed rated productivity of the batteries, which will be rounded to the nearest quarter hour. It is commonly given in each light setting and light output can typically decrease over time, so you should also keep that in mind.
No. 4: Impact Resistance. Drop tests are conducted at a rated distance, in order to make sure that the LED will remain functional after occasional accidental drops.
No. 5: Water Resistance. This is normally rated by the IPX system and this test proves if the flashlight can adequately be used under rainy conditions or around bodies of water.
These five performance indicators are normally included in the CREE LED flashlight’s packaging or specs list online, so make sure to check them out so that you’ll know it will match your needs.
