FLASHBOX V2: I measured 9460 lumens / 18963cd (275m)
FLASHBOX V1: I measured 10210 lumens / 18963cd (275m)
The World's most powerful pocket light - Is it really 13,000 lumens though? Does it throw further than the advertised 324m? How does it handle the heat? Is it the usual IMALENT quality? How long does it hold Turbo? How does it compare to the Astrolux MF01 mini, Astrolux EC03 and IMALENT 6500K MS03?

6:15 Was that a freaking cyborg walking down the street??????
LMAO, I think so.
Great material as always :)
Great review! Thank you for your presentation and all the testing. I'll take a closer look at the MS03W soon. .....btw: I was quite surprised when I saw a Terminator in your video :D ....very well done. ...hopefully it wasn't a real one :) Best regards from Switzerland, Simon
YEAH IMALENT MS03 A GREAT & AWESOME LINTERN .. SUPER VERY COOL LINTERN ,, GREETINGS FROM MEXICALI BAJA CALIFORNIA MEX.
Darn wished I’d waited for the warm variant but hey ho the normal is an awesome light. I install equipment in pubs and clubs and often their cellars. The MS03 is my new EDC. Apart from the turbo issue it’s a great light and I’ve found it to be good value for money vs functionality and purpose. From close up work to lighting a whole cellar. I got it thanks to your first review of it. Cheers 👍🏻
When the MS03 is working it's one of the best lights around. It just need to cycle or return from turbo and the sensor or connection needs sorting that causes the red light.
Astrolux MF01 mini is a great middle for everything, 501meters range with a good spotlight, reaching 7400 lumes with samsung 40T, smaller than EC03, goes down to 49$s with discount and no turbo issues :)
@FLASHAHOLIC HI did your MS03W come in a box that was labelled MS03? Or was the boxed actually printed with correct labelling? MS03W?
I ordered the MS06, recieved the MS06W? Is that a advantage? Or disadvantage?
Hi. Is the cool white version brighter than the warm version given they have the same number of lumens?
Please try reviewing the mf02s v2 sbt 90.2 when you have the chance to
Are there any rechargeable lights you recommend that use type c cable?
Hey great how you made a torch review entertaining but very scientific. But im confused as i want a powerful portable (key ring) torch (ive heard Olight is good?) And one to keep in the car thats still compact that can be used in a village setting with no street lights.
What do you recommend please ?
@FLASHOLICS
Can I purchase non proprietary 21700 battery and use with this?
I know the original proprietary is slightly longer than normal 21700 batteries but would it work? Or can I try extend length with some magnets?
(If I choose not to purchase Imalent original batteries)
Ooh...nice camera
Like your reviews. Really realistic.
Any chance to test LD70?
Hopefully not as I didn't rate the LD10 keychain light.
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV I have LD70, well two of them... 😆 😆
Guess why...
Previously I had LD10 but not anymore for the same reason.
IMHO LD70 is a massive improvement. Ok, it's a bit bigger and it just a flood beam but it has proper tail button which is now so easy to use and now I can carry XHP70.2 in my pocket.
@@gtb100dzikus The LD10 button was miniscule and flat to the body it was impossible to find in the dark. I hated it.
I will get this when they fix the turbo issue. I already have the MS03 its still one of my favorites. Just got the astrolux ec03 on your recommendation.
EC03 has the better UI and easily better value for money, but I prefer the MS03 beam, when it works!
I got the EC03 too and you notice when you hit turbo it's a short delay before it kicks in.

For those that already have an MS03, here's a simple fix.
Ok, be honest with me. Should I get it despite the issue or wait for a fix? I’m really on the fence.
I am curious about the performance of manta ray c8.2 xhp70.2 Do you mind if you make a video review about it? With op reflector of course
Not sure what I'll be reviewing next, I think the amount of lemons I've reviewed recently has put companies off sending me flashlights to review.
I recently received a (second) replacement MS03 (the first replacement continued to have the Turbo problem) from Imalent and, after a week’s use, it appears that the Turbo issue has been resolved. I’ve used Turbo several times and the dreaded red light has not come on. A small sticker has also been added to the head of the light warning of high heat production. Imalent customer service was helpful and courteous when treated fairly and with courtesy. Be sure to get the most recent production of the light as it seems key to getting a properly working example.
Looks like they are finally listening!
FLASHAHOLICS Thankfully. It’s a lovely little powerhouse of a light. But, now there’s the MS06! ;)
@@carycary3822 IMALENT have delayed shipping on it due to a problem "with the box size"
FLASHAHOLICS 🙄....
Astrolux EC03 for the win
Will you be reviewing the FW21 Pro? I already have it but it would be nice to see how it compares to this light.
Probably not.
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV boooooooooo
@@musicgym5223 The last Lumintop I reviewed the button stuck on in turbo!
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV seems all small 6000 plus lumen flashlights have turbo issues :/
I was thinking. What would it be to have a small light like this 13,000lm and 3 minutes full turbo. Really hope that we once have lights like that. Flooders like this light just need long turbo times and no more than 50°C
It'll be hot after 3 mins of 1000 lumens at the moment
FLASHAHOLICS I wonder what Imalent is up to. 1000lm hot after 3 minutes... pfffff..
Not the cheapest flashlight but it creates a sh*t load of light!
Tx!
When you do the size comparisons, can you include a fullsize blf a6? I feel like most people have that or any typical olight. I only say this becasue I only buy one or two lights a year so it's hard to keep up to date with all the newest designs. Thanks for your videos. I can't wait for my tint changing light to come.
Just got my IF25 in the mail today! It only took 13 days from the day I ordered it to make it from China to Pennsylvania! So far I like it a lot :)
There is an Olight in the size comparison!
10:56 what the fuck is that lmao!
After seconds in turbo mode the flashlight become very very hot
For a great EDC 5000k flashlight I love my Emsiar D4V2 in SST-20 5k. The SST-20 in 5k does not have the green tint issues as the 6500k and also very good throw. Its one of my favorites for neutral tint and good combination beam. Hank does not list the candela for the D4V2 but he does for the D4SV2 as I pasted below: So they should be close both using optics
OTF lumen output and candela at start-up
XP-G2 S4 : 3300lm / 40,000cd
Nichia 219C : 3000lm / 20,000cd
XP-L HI : 4300lm / 45,000cd
XP-L HD : 5100lm / 27,000cd
SST-20 6500K: 4200lm / 58,000cd
SST-20 5000K: 4000lm / 55,000cd
SST-20 4000K/3000K 95CRI: 3000lm / 41,000cd
SST20 are too throwy for me, I have 3 XPL-HI D4V2's. Lol
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV I got also the floody optics with my order so I use that for my indoor and around the house tasks. When camping I put the clear throwy optic back on! But I like Cree also. I have FW3A with XPL-HI but still not throwy enough! lol
CB Terminator exterminating darkness lol. It had a very nice style and design.
Can you please review the imalent ms06 when you get a chance. Thanks
I can't sorry.
Great video as always... Is this better than the astrolux mf01s? I know its quite a bit smaller but is it brighter as i think that mf01s is around 13000 lumens.. Cheers
The MF01 is better because it's not faulty
Price?
Hahahaha 😂 daleks and CB terminator good review 😀 💪 👍 👍
You said you measured at turn on then whatever ANSI. What is this ANSI and how long after turn on does it take to reach this level?
30 seconds.
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV neat. Also 100m isn’t long range. That’s regular range 😂
@@kishascape long range for a dedicated flooder
I’ll buy one when they fix all the problems wit it, seems like they are trying to get things out as quickly as possible before perfecting them.
I'd recommend it if the problems are sorted. Great beam. No artefacts or tint deviations. Wall of light with usable throw.
Great work.
Fantastic tint and light.
But....the continuing quality of button, specifically turbo, is too risky.
A shame really. :(

👍
What is the difference between this and the non 'w' one you reviewed? Is it just CT?
Yes. Though this one has a newer tailcap text/spring design and is supposedly fixed.
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV Would you say it's fixed?
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV in 4:09 why does it seem like the MS03W is smaller in size compared to the previous MS03? Is it only in the video where they seem different in size? Or are they really different in size in the actual? Please tell me :)

@@nnsoedo I use an Emisar D4V2 with the 18350 tube as my keychain light, but Rovyvon and Nitecore make great keychain lights. The Lumintop Geek is also a great keychain light if you need a sidelight.
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV Great. Do you have an affiliate link so you benefit from a purchase?
Lastly whats your choice for around the farm/estate/village with no street lights?
@@nnsoedo For the money the Astrolux EC03, depends what keychain light you want.

Ho no, im waiting for 2 MS03W , hope it wont have the turbo problem.

Hello Flash. Another blindingly (yeh, sorry. Couldn't help it) good review.
Has anyone mentioned. How bloody ugly the Imalent MS03 & MS06 are?
I know that it's not supposed to matter. But, let's face it a certain amount of beauty is still very much considered.
Don't get me wrong I have a couple of Imalent flashlights. An RT90 & an LD70 mini. They actually look like somebody thought about a fairly nice presentation. Like you, I find the 6000k a bit washed out. I don't however mind the 5000k tint. Having said that, if the 5700k was available I would definitely choose that, without any hesitation. I know that I was a bit late reading this review mate but, I couldn't any more new ones. Take care mate.
Cheers Stephen.
$130 for a pos light that will not work right for any reasonable length of time and will be a burn/fire hazard???
Just tatoo "stupid" on my forehead please!
Imalent is usually crap and a gimmick brand. Still I was hoping for the cheap 100 dollar light it would make just a fun play thing to use in the dark fields but looks like it can’t even work as a toy either. Smh.
Great light, but god damn that battery life is pathetic.

Nah I like 5000k I wish manufacturers would ditch you instead,
Nothing like turning grey concrete paths to sandstone. 5000k is like a magic wand
