This is not an ordinary LED flashlight, but a laser one, which has many advantages.
A powerful flashlight with an LED will not surprise anyone now – the choice of such devices is huge, and on AliExpress sellers constantly measure themselves with fake brightness values. Another thing is their successors – flashlights created using phosphor technology with laser excitation.
This type of light source is in many ways superior to its LED counterparts: it heats up less, which makes it last longer without losing brightness over time, and is noticeably more energy efficient. An added bonus is better visibility in fog/smoke conditions and increased beam range. For example, model Lazsaber LS1which has received over $42,000 in donations on Kickstarter out of a $5,000 request, can fire a beam up to 1,500 meters away.
