The Sofirn IF25a is a high-powered budget flashlight that is capable of producing over 4000 lumens! I’ve looked around and this is the only light you can purchase with 3800-4200 lumens for only $30. It has the highest lumens to dollar ratio to my knowledge.
In this video, I review and demonstrate the Convoy M21B with CSLPM1.F1 (Green LED). This is a surprisingly powerful thrower that you’ll want to consider if you don’t mind the color. It out-throws the white version and produces more lumens too! Make sure you watch this video if you’re looking for a budget pocket thrower for a great price.
The Wuben C2 is a 2000 lumen (Luminus SST-40) torch that I purchased off Amazon for around $50AUD. It comes with a battery + USB C charging, and also can function as a power bank.
