I used the Opple Light Master 3, to measure beam color temperature, and CRI, in Low mode, and 1 of the Medium modes. I held the flashlight at a distance of about 80-90 centimeters and measured the center of the beam.

I’m not sure how much that would help though, because the things I worry about most, are the fans. There are 3 cooling fans to keep the temperature down, but I’m not sure how waterproof they are. The water resistance rating (IPX rating) for the MS12 Mini is just IP56, so I wouldn’t recommend using it in wet environments, or during rainstorms. When charging, a LED beside the charge port is red. When charging is complete this LED turns green. Built-in thermal control module will automatically adjust the brightness output according to the working state and outer temperature.Imalent also included a lanyard that can be attached to the plate covering the charge port. I’m not convinced that this is a good way to carry it, because the plate can be unscrewed from the flashlight. So, if you’re not paying attention, the plate could unscrew, and drop the light if you just carried it with the lanyard. There is no lanyard attachment point anywhere else on the flashlight. Adjustable beam: Some powerful flashlights allow you to adjust the beam from a narrow spotlight to a wider floodlight, Imalent offer a innovative solution for adjustable beam with a different dual-beam design. This is useful for different lighting needs and situations. I’m not 100% sure if it’s a feature, but I could continue using the light when the power was plugged in. Here are a few runtime tests. The light does shut off when voltage is low, and when the light shuts off so do the fans. You can see what happens when the fans go off, too – the temperature shoots up a bit. That’s expected and is also a testament to how much cooling they are providing.

The MS-series flashlights from IMALENT are revolutionizing the global flashlight industry with their groundbreaking capabilities. These flashlights have been endowed with features that were once exclusive to military-grade or large infrastructure illumination equipment, such as those used on oil platforms. IMALENT is dedicated to continuously pushing the boundaries of what is possible with portable illumination solutions. With the latest high-output LEDs, precise optics, high-drain batteries, and advanced cooling technologies, IMALENT is committed to keeping the MS-Series flashlights at the forefront of the industry. Expect nothing less than exceptional performance from these remarkable flashlights.Imalent are well known for their extreme power and extreme build quality and the MS12 is no exception. The rugged aluminium a erospace-grade alloy body has wear-resistant Type III hard-anodization. Turbo mode started over 65000 lumens and dropped to just above 10,000 lumens in 50 seconds. At 0h44min the light shuts off, soon. The IMALENT MS08 is a compact, high lumen LED flashlight featuring 8 pcs of CREE XHP70.2 LEDs, which is one of the most popular LEDs for bright flashlights. To maximize the user-friendliness of this flashlight, innovative and effective measures have been taken, such as a custom cooling shell, high-drain, high capacity rechargeable Lithium-ion battery cells, the use of Aluminum OP reflector, and a built-in thermal control module.

Battery life: A powerful flashlight often requires more power, so it's essential to consider the device's battery life. Some flashlights use disposable batteries, while others use rechargeable batteries. Rechargeable flashlight are more convenient and cost-effective in the long run.MS12 Mini is more than just a powerful LED torch. We've newly upgraded its heat sink and utilized a more radical cooling system, the latest Imalent Current Control System(ICCS), a full suite of enhanced LEDs and a power system that even the darkest night can't resist. Hey, wait a minute. Didn’t we already review the Imalent MS12? Yep, but this is a newer version, the MS12 MINI, and is way, way, way smaller, and more powerful. You can carry this small bright flashlight in a holster mounted on your belt, and its availability in a variety of scenarios makes it one of the most practical choices in high powered flashlights, with more than three times the lumen output of similarly sized mainstream powerful flashlights. When the fans are running you’ll know it – they are a bit loud. The fans turn on automatically on the third-from-lowest output and when the temperature gets over 50°C. Imalent has released the MS12 Mini, a flashlight featuring 12 Cree XHP70.2 emitters and three built-in cooling fans. Read on for testing!
