Excellent flashlight, solid and well built. It isn’t small and has some weight to it, but that reinforces the impression of sturdiness. If you don’t click immediately but let a brief moment pass, the flashlight returns to the last setting used when switched back on (many comments were specifically lamenting the lack of a beam “memory” feature). All that remains is for me to put it to the test, including underwater (in moderation!).
Wuben L50 Flashlight 1200 Lumens
The flashlight is equipped with a powerful Osram P9 LED that produces a light output of 1200 lumens and illuminates up to 200 meters. In the lowest mode, it can provide 5 lumens of light for up to 143 hours of continuous operation.
The housing is made of aluminium, IP68 waterproof rating
The non-slip body texture is made from aircraft-grade aluminium with a type III hard anodized finish. The O-ring seal system ensures all joints are completely waterproof. The LED is protected by a lens made of tempered glass that resists mechanical damage and thermal shock.
The flashlight meets the IP68 standard, protecting against dust ingress and allowing for extended immersion in water up to a depth of 2 m for 60 minutes, as well as drop resistance up to 1.5 m in line with ANSI standards.
Electronic control
Advanced electronics regulate the current supplied to the LED. This system lets you maintain consistent light output in the selected mode until the battery is depleted. The spring is coated with a layer of gold to reduce oxidation and corrosion, while the trapezoidal thread increases wear resistance. These elements extend the overall life of the flashlight.
18650 battery and charge level indicator
The L50 is powered by the included 18650 Li-Ion battery with a 2500 mAh capacity, which ensures stable operation over a wide temperature range and offers low self-discharge. This power solution is suitable for military, police, rescue, and survival applications. The charge indicator displays the current battery status.

This is a USB-C rechargeable flashlight and it delivers exactly what’s advertised. There is, however, one issue I’d call significant. As you cycle through the brightness levels with the rear button, the light has no memory of where you last left it — turn it off and back on, and it won’t return to that setting. That means you can switch it on and suddenly get a far stronger beam than expected. Depending on when and where that happens, it ranges from harmless to genuinely inconvenient, and either way it introduces an element of uncertainty. Ideally it would let you double-press straight into moonlight mode, so you always know what you’re starting in, or at minimum resume at the last-used level. It would have been three stars without that; thinking it over, it’s two, because there isn’t much more to it than a USB-C charging flashlight — which is good as far as it goes. Better luck next time, Wuben.

A durable, small flashlight with well-crafted details. The beam of light is very good. I am satisfied with the purchase, though I haven't tested its resistance to dust and moisture yet. It's possible I will buy another one for my dad.

The flashlight is strong and compact. Its casing is sturdy and carefully made of aluminum. Once you get familiar with the basics, using it is not difficult. The battery has satisfactory durability.
