Recently, my flashlight was lost, and I had to buy a new one. My friend recommended the Astrolux brand to me, saying the Astrolux flashlight is great and cost-effective. It just so happens that the latest Astrolux K3 EDC rechargeable flashlight has been launched, so I placed an order immediately. The Astrolux K3 just arrived, so let’s unbox it together and see how it performs.

Auspacken
This blue light is made from an aluminum alloy. Even with wet hands, the handle holds well. Its unique shape is a big advantage – it doesn’t slide off the surface like regular flashlights. Measuring 90 mm in length and weighing 121g, this light is a medium-sized, sturdy, and durable flashlight that won’t fall out of your bag. Es ist IPX6 waterproof rating works very well. Even during heavy rain at night, with water droplets covering the surface, there was no water leakage.
Lichter
Unlike typical EDC flashlights, the Astrolux K3 features triple lights.
Duale Haupt-LED
Two main lights on top: an SFT25R and a LUMILEDS HL2X-V. These can be used for long-range, wide-range, or both (with adjustable LED selection or simultaneous illumination).
Both the spotlight and floodlight are flicker-free, preventing eye strain even after long-term use. The two flashlights can be used separately or together.
On top, the spotlight provides a clear, visible main light, illuminating a greater distance than the flashlight. The flashlight’s beam distance is 209 meters, with a beam intensity of 650 lm and an average light intensity of 11,000 candlepower.
The floodlight provides a wider beam. With a beam intensity of 1000 lm, it provides a large, even beam, allowing for good visibility even in the dark.
In dual light mode, it provides a beam of 1550 lm for a wider and more effective beam. What’s more, it supports turbo, high, low, strobe, and SOS light modes.
RGB-Zusatz-LED
Additionally, there’s a dial that can turn around on the flashlight’s handle. The dial-shaped interior houses a total of 18 RGB Aux LEDs that can change colors, and includes a built-in 395nm UV LED. In RGB mode, it supports static colors, chasing, meteor, breathing, rainbow, and game modes.
I found the 395nm UV LED to be the most useful. During my stay at a hotel, it was very useful for checking the cleanliness of the room. The RGB array also works as a good low-power signal light. If you are walking down the street at night, placing the LEDs in a breathing or meteor pattern makes you more visible to passing cars without obstructing your night vision.
Einhandbedienung zum Schalten
The Hall effect mode switch is on the back. Pushing it up or down switches between the main light and the RGB light. Pushing it up switches between the main light mode, while pulling it down switches between the secondary light mode.
The main switch is on the side of the lamp. The button is large and easy to press. The side light wheel is a rotary switch with good edges, which is stable and prevents slipping. The way these three switches are arranged is ingenious. When holding the lamp with one hand, the thumb can quickly switch between the main wheel and the wheel; pressing and rotating are smooth and easy.
In addition, the side switch can be locked with 5 quick presses to prevent accidental start-up and power loss.
In the RGB light mode, a single press on the side keeps the light on, a double press switches to the drag mode, a triple press switches to the play mode, and a long press switches to the pixel movement mode. The two-line jump wheel can be used to achieve different colors, wake-up, and movement effects.
In the main light mode, A single press on the switch is for the middle brightness level in the normal mode. Rotating the dial provides a stepless wave light adjustment mode. A double press changes the brightness level by one level, and a stepless dimming mode in two ways. A triple press turns off the light.
After the main light is on, a quick double press on the switch uses the dual LED for 1550lm light at once.
The brightness can be steplessly adjusted. On throw light, low brightness is 30lm, high brightness is 650lm. On the flood light, low brightness is 16lm, high brightness is 1000lm.On dual light, low brightness is 60lm, dose is 1550lm.
What’s more, it supports the other light modes. In the main light mode, the machine is off. The quick double-click switch enters burst mode through high-frequency, high-brightness, high-contrast flashing, which can make people dizzy or even temporarily blind. In addition, the three-click switch for the SOS.
Astrolux K3 Batterie
The Astrolux K3 battery is a 16300 Li-ion cell that does a good job of discharging. Charging is easy because you don’t need a separate charger; you just use the standard USB-C cable that the Astrolux K3 charger uses. Thus, you can charge it with your power bank.
When it is charging, the dial light will be red. And the light turns green means it is full. The charging time is so fast. It only takes about 1 hour. That is so fantastic.
Leistung
In terms of actual runtime, I was able to get several days of use on a single charge. The light quality is good with no unusual artifacts or yellow tint in the middle. The light indicators on the device are few but distinctive – they last for hours and shine brightly, making it easy to clearly find where the control devices are at night.
Let’s compare the throw, flood, and throw + flood modes. Flood large water beams effectively cover the surrounding environment.
The throw is best seen from a distance. When both lights are on, it provides a good balance of high beam and low beam, making distant roads clearly visible.
Astrolux K3 is definitely a good EDC Flashlight Rechargeable. And it is available on Banggood now. What’s more, the Banggood Spring Sale is on! Bring Astrolux K3 Jetzt zu Hause!
