Unfortunately, at this price, the flashlight performs worse than I expected. It's great in winter because when you turn it on, it heats up the room, converting more energy into heat than into light. The runtime suggests a typically Chinese approach to the Western market. At the highest brightness modes, it quickly reduces the output to protect the LED, which isn't very well matched in terms of performance and heat dissipation.
The MH12 Pro flashlight features a NiteLab LED UHi 4 with a maximum light output of 3,300 lumens and a range of up to 505 meters.
The sturdy housing is made of HA III anodized aircraft aluminum. The durable body and sealing ensure resistance to drops from 1m and IP68 water resistance. In addition, the lenses are protected with a scratch-resistant coating on both sides.
The model is powered by a 21700 battery with a capacity of 5000 mAh (included). The design also allows it to be powered by 18650 batteries. It is equipped with a built-in USB-C port for charging batteries without disassembling the flashlight, and a charge indicator that displays the battery level.
It uses Precision Digital Optics Technology (PDOT) to amplify the intensity of the light beam, five power levels and three special modes (SOS, beacon and strobe). The Advanced Temperature Regulation ( ATR) system protects the equipment from overheating.
In addition, a built-in optical sensor reduces brightness when an obstacle is detected at close range and a highly efficient current circuit (Non PWM) prevents flickering.

The flashlight is excellent. The amount of light that comes out of such a small device is impressive... the double switch and mode indicators are big advantages. It's perfect for EDC and for mounting on a carbine.

Very nice flashlight – comfortable to carry and use, works perfectly as everyday equipment. The battery lasts a very long time. I recommend it!

This is my first EDC flashlight, so I don't have much to compare it to. It's quite comfortable in a pants pocket considering its power, though it fits better in a sweatshirt or jacket pocket. The casing has a very aggressive texture, which you really feel especially without gloves. It has several options: - “Everyday” mode, where you can change the light intensity from the lowest to turbo with the front button. It remembers the last used level. - “Tactical” mode – always starts at turbo, then goes to lower brightness levels. This mode is useful for self-defense or blinding an opponent. - You can also combine specific buttons to get 1 lumen (for up-close use without risking blinding yourself), strobe (3300 lm, also for self-defense), beacon (flashing position light), or SOS mode (Morse code signal). A downside is the lack of available adapters for other types of batteries, like CR123 or 18650 batteries. From what I’ve seen in pictures, these are usually simple plastic pieces with a bit of copper, so maybe there’s a home solution to this problem.

Fantastic flashlight. I tested it and was very impressed – it has an excellent range, strong battery, and it also illuminates well to the sides. It's already in my storage and I'll be placing an order soon.
