Description
The Olight Prowess USB-C Rechargeable LED Flashlight 5000 Lumen 245m Throw is a versatile flashlight designed for outdoor activities, ideal for camping, hiking, and emergency use. Its 5000-lumen output can illuminate a wide area up to 245 meters during a night hike, while its lantern mode provides ambient lighting for a campsite. With a rechargeable battery and dual lighting options, it offers reliable functionality. Featuring a 5-year warranty, this Olight Prowess suits campers, hikers, and outdoor enthusiasts.
Powerful Illumination for Outdoor Use
The Olight Prowess features six high-performance Cool White LEDs for forward lighting, delivering a maximum output of 5000 lumens and a beam throw of 245 meters, powered by a 3.6V 5000mAh 21700 Li-ion battery (included). It offers five brightness levels for forward light, a warm white reverse light (up to 800 lumens) for 360-degree lantern-style illumination, and stepless dimming for the reverse light, controlled by a toggle switch and a side push button. Runtimes for forward light include:
- Turbo: 5000 lumens for 3 minutes, then 1200 lumens for 140 minutes, 245m throw
- High: 1200 lumens for 150 minutes, 120m throw
- Medium: 300 lumens for 10 hours, 63m throw
- Low: 50 lumens for 50 hours, 27m throw
- Moonlight: 5 lumens for 20 days, 9m throw
The flashlight charges via a USB-C port on its detachable base or an optional MCC3 magnetic charger, taking about 2.5 hours with USB-C, and includes a 5000mAh battery that doubles as a power bank. It is IPX7 waterproof (submersible to 1m for 30 minutes) and 1m impact-resistant, ensuring durability, though some users note the proprietary battery limits compatibility with standard 21700 cells.
Durable and Compact Design
The Olight Prowess is constructed from AL6061-T6 aluminum alloy with a Type III hard-anodized finish, available in black or orange, offering durability in rugged outdoor conditions like camping or hiking. It measures 143mm in length, with a head diameter of 49mm and a body diameter of 28mm, weighing 269g with the battery, making it compact for a high-lumen flashlight but slightly heavy for pocket carry. The flashlight features a diamond-patterned grip for secure handling, a magnetic base for hands-free use, a 1/4-inch threaded hole for tripod mounting, and a holster with a fixing bracket for wall storage, though some users find the holster less durable for frequent use.
Designed for Outdoor Use
The Olight Prowess 5000 Lumen 245m Throw Rechargeable LED Flashlight is tailored for campers, hikers, and outdoor enthusiasts needing a reliable, multi-functional light for outdoor activities, emergencies, or ambient lighting. Its 5000-lumen Turbo mode can light up a forest trail for navigation, while the warm white reverse light creates a cozy glow for reading or campsite tasks. The 20-day Moonlight runtime and tripod compatibility make it versatile, but the proprietary battery may not suit users preferring standard cells. The Prowess’s IPX7 waterproofing and magnetic base enhance its utility in wet conditions, offering reliability.
