I need a powerful flashlight to use from my balcony when hearing noise about 300-500 feet away in open space behind my yard. Will this work?

300 feet maybe, 500 feet no way. This distance would require a very powerful (read=expensive) spotlight.

It's pretty bright. Not sure about the distance. If you focus it to a sharp beam you should be OK. It's only 500 lumens tho. I would go with the hkbayi UltraFire E17 2000 Lumen Flashlight Led Cree T6 XM-L Camping Torch Flash Light The Lamp With Mount Holder Set + 2pcs 18650 Li-ion Battery 4000mah Ultrafire 3.7v Batteries + 18650 Dual Charge. Those batteries are long lasting and they come with a charger. Good luck!

Hmmm, it pretty much has the speaker reach of a small portable stereo, but a loud blast will suck up the power of this battery speaker very quickly. Outside on a field might not be the best projection rather than an enclosed space and it will suck out your power quickly. This is a device that is considered a fancy electronic accessory for 3 big ones. No a far reaching speaker with long battery life.

Haven't tested it for accurate distance but I am.pretty sure you can get 100 yards out of it. It also has a large spread so the darker the area the more you.can.light up. Be aware this uses D cell batteries.

I think the beam will only shoot out about 30 feet to detect something. Ours is transmitting 700 feet at our house with no problems at all.

No it will not work for 30 feet away you would need a 100 feet one to do the trick.

It will depend on the length of the dock. I have one installed on a covered area behind my house. The sensor range to trigger the ultrasonic sounds and strobe light work well at 28 feet in my application. I am pleased with the results I have obtained in my application. The manufacturer will work with you to improve the application and settings if necessary. I recommend the product!

I use the flash light to see under houses and in dark places in houses as my job requires. Under a house I can usually see straight to about 10-30 feet with out issue. The light is not very focused and will eat normal batteries very quickly. Out side to ID animals might require a stronger light. This light I found to be more affective in close range and very dark conditions.

depends on your surroundings. I have great results with this device. I've seen then work 200-300' away when there was really no other buildings nearby. I have one in a building in Boston that is on the 11th floor. iT shoots 2 blocks away. At my house it covers 800sqft or so, but barely outside. That being said my Iphone has 4 bars outside the house and inside i have 1 or 2 there is something interfering with it. (who knows what... lead paint maybe?)

As any light would, it falls off softly as the distance increases. We have woods behind our house about 50 feet away. If outside, we can see into the woods a ways. If a flat level ground, it might be useable over 100 feet. This is at a brighter setting which is adjustable. The light is more like a flood light than a spot light.

Ive been using it a while to find my cats before dark. It only has a range of about 500 ft. If you lost your cell in your house or yard or card it would be great but not if its more than a half mile away.

No this light will not be right for that if the goal is only to light the book as this will easily light a cone that extends 10-15 feet in front of you while running/walking/working at night. It's very bright and works to light the area not spot in front of you.

As a user of this light, in total darkness, which is rare, this light will illuminate a minimum of 300 ft. in a pratical user manner, however I have used this light to shine at someone in the distance which he said to me he could see well over 2 miles as i approached him with a cell phone

This is a second answer to the same question; generally no flashlight will illuminate anything at ½ or ¼ mile with any intensity, regardless what the manufacture may claim. But this small flashlight is one powerful item; generally speaking I would estimate that at a distance of 200 to 500 feet away, it would light up most every thing in your view. With two batteries supplied there is plenty of power, but I would suggest ordering an extra two batteries that only cost about $8.00 extra. There is nothing better than having two extra fully charged batteries when your power is running low. A GREAT flashlight for a LOW COST.

I dont see why it wouldnt work outside BUT not what it is made for. Light is extremely bright so might effect neighbors and I would worry about it being damaged or stolen. Great light tho!

As mentioned, this light will light up the retinas of animals, probably at 400 yards. But you're not going to recognize your friends or read a billboard at that distance. I took mine to a golf course when I got it and it's amazing. It will easily light up an oak tree at about 200 yards. It'a good light. I recommend it.

This should work fine for you. It will work with line of sight out to 500yds. So that distance should be fine.

This is not for outside, unless you put it in a garage or barn. It works within 2000 feet .
