If fully charged, how long does the flashlight last?

I tested my brand new, fully charged luster. it ran for approximately 9 hours on HIGH with minimal dimming, soon after, the brightness went down significantly. it goes for many more hours but gets dimmer and dimmer, by hour 12, it is barely useable as a flashlight. Also, on high, i'd estimate it to be around 120- 150 lumens when compared to my other flashlights. And, there are variations in the leds they used and probably the circuits that control them. I bought multiple colors of the ravpower 3k luster and 2 of them seem to have similar leds while the others are different. the beam these produce are squared, you can see the shape and emitting parts of the led. also, some of these were off centered.

I did a test on mine which is about 18 months old. On a full charge, 3 lights illuminated on the side, it lasted 27.5 hours. It was still illuminated but about 1/2 the brightness of a full charge. You can easily get 24 hours of useful light out of this.

I'd say it's good for about a month. Never tested it out as I use it before it gets to that point.. but I do know that it's rather easy to accidentally turn the flashlight on. Not a problem if you can see it, but sometimes if it's in a bag/pocket... you won't know til you try to charge and it's dead.

george, i haven't measured the charge time; i have two batteries and one is always ready to go; by the time i use up one the other one is ready to go. i don't use the flashlight. sorry, but this isn't much help to you. but i do like the tool; it's met all my needs (furniture construction; periodical but heavy use; the torque settings are very useful).

I'm not sure how long it takes to fully charge; I've left it charging for up to two days and the charging light never shut off. My guess for how long actually it takes to charge is like half a day or something, but that's pure speculation. And to answer the other question: Yes, as long as you're reasonably careful.

Your question is not very clear. I'm guessing you're asking about the bulb? The flashlight I have the bulb is still working just fine no problems. It should last a long time. I use my light everyday.

Based on the manual from Eton, flashlight time is 2 hours. http://www.etoncorp.com/sites/default/files/BBuddy_WebQG_3_5x3_5_v0301710.pdf

I have mine plugged into an electrical socket all the time. I bought it for when there is a power failure at night. When the house power goes off, the flashlight will turn on. Not only will I be able to find it, but I will have light on high for around 2 hours and if I keep it on night lite setting it can last up to 15 hours. For $7.99 it is a great device for safety when emergencies happen. I am not sure how long it takes to charge from the dead state as I have always kept it plugged in since I received it.

Yes, very well. I accidentally left my light on for over 8 hours necessitating my first charge. It took less than 4 hours (I was gone for that timeframe) and its back to full charge.

I purchased 2 of these for bugout bags so I have never fully charged them but I can tell you this, I wound it up for about five seconds four months ago and if I push the button, it still lights up.Hope that helps.

honestly, i'm not really sure as i haven't use it in an actual emergency or for any purpose but with a brand new AAA duracell batteries, it's pretty bright and last quite some time... i would guess about 12+ hours on low and around 8-10 hours on high (with brand new batteries). It may last longer with the emergency flashing (strobe mode) however.

Upon receiving the baton, I initially charged it for 3 hours. I then tested the flashlight to see just how bright it was. Brightness is obviously more apparent at night. I then activated the "Stun" button and determined by the sound generated by the spark that it was fully charged. It would be important to note that one should deplete the battery to the point where it would be apparent that the flashlight is considerablly dim and that the "spark" barely arcing. Then re-charge for no more than 5 hours.

I use this flashlight often,maybe 10 minutes at a time. I do not recharge it very often. I have bought several rechargeable crank flashlight and this one is my favorite for size and convenience.

It holds a charge for 8-9 days if not used, we leave ours between the car front seats for protection or in the house on the counter. We don't use it as a flashlight. Therefore length of charge depends on use. Yes, you can leave it in the charger for long periods

This flashlight cannot hold a charge for a long period of time without constant winding. The batteries would probably cover that time. The flashlight without any batteries dies almost instantly if not being wound.

That's how I use mine, this is great , I've noticed it's good for at least a week. I always check my flashlight to see if it's still charged. It pulls down real fast when you do use it.
