- Milwaukee 1100 Lumens LED USB Rechargeable Twist Focus Flashlight
Thank you to Milwaukee Tool and The Home Depot for making this sample available for me to review. Check out the Light here: www.homedepot.com/p/Milwaukee...
Another great product in the Milwaukee line of lights. I am a big fan of their Trueview lights. This flashlight is crazy bright and the color of the light is fantastic. I am out in the rain all the time, and really like that it is waterproof. It is a little big to carry in my pocket all the time, but does fit in my side pocket nicely. At 1100 lumens, the light lasted 1 hr 33 min, at 600 lumens it ran for 4hr 23 min, and at 100 lumens it ran for 12 hr 44 min. All these times are shorter than the stated run time on the package. The light does blink before running out of electricity, which is really nice. The lens adjustment, micro USB cover, and the battery cover are all really stiff upon arrive. It does take some effort to get those to move smoothly. The body of the flashlight gets really hot after about ten minutes at 1100 lumens, but I did not notice to be over hot at the other two settings.

Thank u ! Someone that knows how to make a basic video- excellent
The flood mode was pretty impressive. It seemed to live up to the Milwaukee name. I really did like all the features. Always appreciate the data such as timing the light. Awesome Review!
Thanks. I have a bunch of lights similar to this. This is the best light quality by far. I am fine with how long it lasts, just a little bummed it didn't stay on the rated time.
Thank u so much i didn't know where to charge the battery tho i watched 3 other videos , u were a big help .
I’m glade I’m not the only person that throw away the package and didn’t read the instructions lol
Thanks for the video! Really like that you timed how long it will last in each mode
Glad you liked it!
Great review. I'm a flashlight fanatic. I have flashlights and headlamps for about any occasion. I like the Milwaukee light. Excellent job buddy 🤝
Thanks Tracy. This is a pretty nice light.
Something special about the true-view
Thanks for the review I'm thinking it through now
Any time!
Look at the bright side! 🔦
It was definitely an illuminating review................thanks
I might have to ban you from puns, LOL
Thank you. You made it a easier day today.
Glad I could help
While the battery didn't last as long as advertised, it's still pretty impressive. The proprietary battery part is a bummer though for those of us that don't already have a collection of compatible battery powered tools. Thanks for the review.
The proprietary battery is a bit of a draw back, at least it recharges pretty quickly. Even quicker if they had used USB C technology.
I don’t have that yet.
Got an M12 flashlight free in a tool kit, that I use almost everyday.
I like it because I can find it easier in my tool bag.
I have the M12 flashlight. I love it. I think I use it almost every day.
Nice flashlight, Fernbark. Stay safe and stay cool. I might have too many flashlights.
I have been told I have too many lights as well. Usually followed later in the day/week by "where's the new flashlight?"
@@FernbarkFrist I leave her some simple on/off flashlights. Usually all she does is yell until i go get some light. Just looking around the computer room there has to be 9 or 10 plus a bunch of candle lanterns. Probably 10 more before you get to the back door.
This video has been illuminating
I did not find that punny at all!
Garage Kitchen of Science just a little light humour
thnx for sharing! it is quite not obvious on how to charge it
The proprietary battery sucks but Olight does that too. Great looking light and we have used some Milwaukee lights on some camping trips and they have worked great. Awesome review Brother!
Being geared towards those in the trades, people like me are already on this battery platform, it makes it easy to have backups that work in our headlamps, flood lights and such. And does o light use proprietary batteries? Coulda sworn comparing different brands on amazon and batteries plus bulbs
It is almost impossible for a flashlight to charge with a built in USB and not have a proprietary battery, but it does give people something to complain about.
olight can uses regular 18650's, 16340's, etc. but need to use there proprietary batteries for the magnetic charging system. unlike the Milwaukee lights. plus there half the size and twice the output. also these aren't the best out there, I carry a Zebralight with me every day that puts this light to shame in every way.
Thanks for the video
No problem!
Thank you sir. Good video
Most welcome
I just got this flashlight and for the life of me could not find the charging port. I read the instructions about aligning the usb port and the “dot” but still couldn’t get it. Well came across your vid and viola found it!! Thanks!!!!!
It is tricky.
Thanks for the video l really needed this l hate to say this but this is my first flashlight from Milwaukee. But not my last. I have a flashlight problem.
Flashlight addiction happens to many men. You are not alone.
Excellent review. Thanks for this as the manual is poorly written and I couldn't figure out how to expose the charging port.
You are welcome!
Real nice light i love the micro usb port setup!
atb john
Makes it easy to charge almost anywhere.
I like that it is rechargeable. I have a couple lights I like, but they take 3 aaa batteries and they don’t last very long.
It lasts a long time at 600 lumens. Plus, you can keep it charged up. It recharges pretty quickly.
Glad I watched this video cause I was getting ready to slam this one on the floor charger access was a bitch to find thanks for showing me how
That thing is a real pain to get open.
@@FernbarkFrist lol yes it is
Might be picking this one up as it does have a lot of lumens for a decent sized flash light from all of the Milwaukee flash lights
It is crazy bright. I have another Milwaukee flashlight that runs on M12 battery. It is far away right now, but I am curious to compare the two.
@@FernbarkFrist yeah I also have one that runs on m12 battery but it’s a bit bigger I want something that’s a better decent size with a lot of lumens so I’ll have to be picking this light up hopefully !
I have no issue recharging in the beginning but later on mine got stuck.
Just bought 3 of these for my Brothers for Christmas! Love the Spot/Flood modes! The Flood light setting is perfect for Hiking or just mount on your Mountain Bike.
Love how this Battery is compatible with the Other 550 Lumens Carabiner & 445 Lumens Flood Rover Light.
Was gona get Other Brands such as Nitecore, Olight, Manker, etc....4,000+ Lumens flashlights but they use 4 batteries, too Bulky, very pricey $250+, & doesn't stay on Max Output(goes down to lower lumens to prevent damage to the light).
Hope Milwaukee comes up with Brighter Flashlights(5000k), this one has a slight yellowish tint/hue to it(probably 3000k or so).
i smashed 2 flashlights at work last year at work cause they failed me when i really needed them i saw this and felt guilty paying 89$ for it but after using for few months its worth every penny i like it so much im debating getting a 2nd one for the house
I've dropped this one a few times. No problems. I've even had an older M12 lantern fall off a six foot ladder and keep working.
I recently switched from coast flashlight to the Milwaukee 1100 needless to say it feels better for the line of work I do. The light is yellow unlike a cool white or blue, I think it's better since shadows aren't to dark. The clip on the flashlight could be better.
I took the clip off. But I love the light.
I find that the warmer color of the light makes colors pop better, ideal for tracing wires.
15 min short of the 13 hour run time as advertised? That's actually damn good. Price though a tad high. I did see at Home Depot and decided to view on CZcams first. Would of been nice if it had some sort of magnetic sides to mount. I think I'll pass on it for now as I do have several type lights and maybe a competitor will come out with one for half price. Maybe
They probably have it over priced so that when they have deals on it or include in kits, it will seem like a better discount. As far as run time, pretty much everything I have tested from Milwaukee has over performed. Still, I am not likely to exhaust this light over the course of a day.
Hi, are you interested in testing headlamp?
Harbor freight’s has a pouch that works very good with this Milwaukee flashlight for $9.99. Check it out
Es normal que mi linterna Milwaukee se caliente demasiado?
I actually had to grab two pair of channel locks,just to gain access to the charging port ridiculous!!
It is really tough to spin.
Can you reverse the belt clip for hat use?
I don't think so, but this light is way too heavy for a hat.
Cuál es el valor donde se consigue
How do you charge the flash light because I don’t know how to charge it
Keep watching the video, I show where to plug in the cable.
Paid Promotion? Right on man. I might get this for my Dad for Christmas. I don't think he has any flashlights this high end.
It is a really nice light. I wish my camera did a better job at showing how bright it is.
Could I use my own higher end 18650 on this?
Sadly no, the light is designed to only accept the Milwaukee brand.
Does it still work 2 years later now?
Yes.
Hi Fernbark
Hello Mr. Phillips.
Almost looks like streamlight protec
Hi, how could send email to you? We VASTFIRE bike lights also need your help to test them
Fernbark@outlook.com
I don’t ride a bike, so I don’t know how you would want me to test a bike light.
I was seriously considering this over a nitecore light until the battery was mentioned. I will never buy a light again that uses a non standard battery.
I get that.
It would’ve been great if it had usb c
They would have to use a different battery which would make it more expensive. People would really have something to complain about then.
Pros: well i guess light does come out the end. Cons: 1.very heavily 2.zoomable 3. proprietary batteries
Thanks for watching!
Warning!..Milwaukee is not covering flashlight warranty. Eservice is not supporting flashlights anymore and local service centers are non existent.
This is a pain in the ass to access the charging port.!!
You are 100% correct.
Am I the only one that’s experiencing this thing getting so hot it’s burning my hands?
It will get really hot if you leave it on for a while. BTW, all LED's do this.
Soooo… guess I’m not mounting it on my rifle lol
probably not.
I’ve never heard that one before you use a screwdriver 🪛 to loosen the rear cap!! Ummm 🤔
Maybe they figure you are also carrying a Milwaukee Tool screwdriver?
