Wuben L50 Flashlight Kit Review in 2023

In this video, I review the Wuben L50. This is a pocketable flashlight with a long-range beam profile. This flashlight has been out for quite some time but I thought it’d be worth taking a look, given how popular it is on Amazon. It’s also a lot cheaper than most other budget flashlights.

Wuben L50 Review

General thoughts after a week of usage/size comparison/practicality:

Very efficient and throwy EDC flashlight from Wuben. I like this one more than the C3 due to the extra range you get. Simple UI for EDC use. Easily pocketable.

Overall Construction, LED, lens, bezel, and reflector

Well constructed for a light of this price range. It’s a simple tube design, nothing special but it does the job. The anodizing is a slightly glossy black.
P9 LED with a deep, smooth reflector. Simple bezel that joins onto the body. Glass lens.
One tail switch. Micro USB charging port under the rubber port.

UI – modes

Modes demo, SOS?

Performance – total output, beam profile, longevity, practicality

Ceiling bounce test, CRI, CCT, candela

Considerations

Micro-USB charging. Would have liked to see USB-C, many budget lights have this already.
Memory mode takes 3 seconds to store the last mode.
Lower capacity battery.
No momentary turbo mode – this would have pushed this light into the tactical territory.

Verdict

For what you pay, you get a throwy EDC flashlight with onboard charging and battery included. I recommend it if you’re looking for a cheap and easy light to pocket or store around the house/car. I like the simplicity of the design and UI.
