For flashlights, we use them not just for illumination. In fact, flashlights have many other uses, such as providing fill light for photography, serving as props for night sky photography, and more. This means different requirements for flashlights. Today, let’s take a look atWUBENWUBENT70,E01the pairing effect of these two flashlights — one large and one small.
WUBENwubenhas been a long-established brand in the flashlight industry since1981, though it has been primarily focused on overseas sales and OEM manufacturing. It has only recently entered the domestic market. As a brand that integrates production, R&D, and sales, WUBEN is expected toWUBENintroduce more new products for everyone to discover and learn about in the future. WUBEN(WUBEN)is a professional manufacturer of outdoor sports lighting tools, specializing in high-end and premiumLEDflashlights and similar products, widely used in outdoor sports, industrial lighting, home use, gifts, and other fields.WUBENThanks to its outstanding performance and innovative design, WUBEN has earned high praise and popularity among users.
WUBENwuben T70packaging is largely similar to that of most flashlights. The package features an image of the flashlight and clearly lists its various specifications, such as maximum lumens, number of brightness levels, water resistance rating, battery life, drop resistance height, and more — giving you a quick and straightforward understanding of the flashlight at a glance.Opening the box, you’ll find the flashlight inside along with a carry pouch,a Type-C fast chargingcable, a waterproof o-ring, a lanyard, as well as a certificate of compliance, product warranty card, and user manual. The manual advises users to read it carefully for better operation of the flashlight to avoid potential harm to themselves or damage to the flashlight.WUBENwuben T70flashlights feature bodies made from6061aviation-grade aluminum alloy, with a smooth and delicate surface that is beautifully crafted. The body is precision-forged from6061high-quality aerospace aluminum alloy, ensuring high hardness while significantly reducing the overall weight.WUBENwuben T70flashlights have a body size of139.7*42mm(l*d), weighing164g(excluding battery). Despite delivering4200lumens of powerful output, they remain comfortably manageable in one hand.T70The head of the flashlight features an integrated design, with a stainless steel striking bezel on top that serves for self-defense, enhances aesthetics, and effectively helps prevent drops and impacts.
On one side of the light head, there is an overheat protection indicator.
On the other side is the Wubenwubenlogo. Seeing it,1981, I suddenly felt like I was about to turn forty.
T70The head is densely packed with basically360degree heat dissipation slot design, which ensures4200lumens of heat are better released.
T70The front of the flashlight body is equipped with a power button (Wbutton), which can trigger all functions with one press—power on/off, brightness adjustment, turbo bright mode,SOSmode, battery level display, and more.
On the back side of the power button is the Type-C charging port, which, together with the includedType-C fast-chargingcable, allows you to charge the flashlight. The port is covered with a rubber protective cap for waterproof and dustproof protection.
T70The tail cap has markings indicating the positive and negative terminals of the battery, helping beginners correctly place the battery according to its polarity to avoid damage from incorrect insertion.
Right next to the polarity markings is a lanyard hole. With the included lanyard, it enhances portability. The lanyard is wide, soft, and comfortable, and features the Wubenwubenlogo printed on it.T70Instead of including a clip, a portable flashlight pouch is provided, allowing you to carry the flashlight in the bag along with a carabiner or similar accessory.The bottom of the tail cap is flat and marked with the manufacturer’s website, flashlight model, production batch number, and other information. This design allows the flashlight to stand upright on a flat surface, and with a light shade on top, it functions perfectly as a desk lamp.Unscrewing the tail cap reveals that it is screwed onto the flashlight body with smooth threads and no burrs. The connection is fitted with a waterproof gasket to ensure a tight seal between the tail cap and the body, providing effective water resistance.
After unscrewing the tail cap, you’ll find thatT70it is equipped with an5000mAh 26650extra-high-capacity battery designed to prevent overcharging and over-discharging. This allows it to achieve a maximum runtime of up to40lumens on low brightness for35hours,400lumens on medium brightness for7.5hours,1300-1500lumens on high brightness for180+30minutes, and4200-1300-500lumens on turbo brightness for1+60+60minutes. Under turbo brightness,1minutes doesn’t mean the battery is depleted—it automatically shifts to a lower mode after this duration to prevent overheating and protect the flashlight from damage.
T70uses aCREE XHP 70.2LEDLED chip, paired with a hardened magnifying lens and an aluminum alloy vacuum-plated reflector ring, enabling its beam to reach up to250meters in distance, with a light intensity of15750candela.
T70has an IP rating ofIP68for dust and water resistance, allowing underwater use at depths of2meters for one hour, ensuring you're protected against wind and rain during outdoor activities.
Now that we've shown you the big guy, let’s take a look at the little one.WUBENWubenE01is Wuben’s first mini flashlight, with a total body length of just82.5mm— about the length of a finger; including the battery, it weighs only29g, roughly the weight of half an egg.E01With a simple and convenient design, it can be described as a highly suitable everyday-useEDCportable mini flashlight.
It comes in a simple paper box packaging, which includes one battery, a quick-attach wrist lanyard, and a user manual.
E01It features a tail-mounted one-button tactical switch: press once to/turn the flashlight on or off. When lit, a light touch cycles through the modes: low-medium-high-low (1lumens-20lumens-100lumens-1lumens). Double-tapping quickly entersSOSmode.
E01The body is equipped with diamond-patterned anti-slip textures to ensure a better grip.
The small clip on the body allowsE01to be attached to a backpack or pocket, ensuring both portability and security.
E01The tail section has a quick-attach rope hole, and when used with the included metal carabiner, it can be easily fastened to a keychain as a convenientEDCeveryday carry item.
E01The battery is built-in.AAAThe battery, which is very easily available on the market, can last up to20hours under its top-tier Bright Moonlight mode,20hours at medium brightness of5lumens,100hours at high brightness of1lumens.
E01The body of the flashlight also features an integrated design, connected only to the tail cap via threads, with a waterproof gasket at the connection, giving itIP68-level high-strength waterproof performance.
E01It uses aCREE XPG3 LEDLED bulb, with a maximum throw distance of up to40meters and a light intensity of up to395candela.
There’s an old Chinese saying: “When men and women work together, the job gets done without feeling tiring.” Of course, the use of outdoor flashlights varies, and pairing them can better meet different needs. So let’s take a look at the combination ofT70andE01.
First, let’s check out the four modes ofT70—the difference is quite obvious. When you switch to the ultra-bright mode, you’ll find it’s practically a searchlight. A hallway dozens of meters long becomes as bright as daylight.
One night while hiking up a mountain, my colleagues each carried a flashlight and walked in front, while I brought up the rear with myT70. When I shone it ahead in high-brightness mode, it could illuminate everything within a dozen meters in front of them.
Of course, for general lighting purposes,T70using the high-brightness mode is a bit of a waste; the low-brightness40lumens are more than enough to meet lighting needs. I always feel that this40lumen brightness is even brighter than theE01’s100lumens—ha ha.
Of course,T70andE01both meet theIP68-level waterproof standard, so underwater operation is no problem at all, and they’re also fearless against everyday wind and rain.
WithT70lighting usage, so I rarely useE01it, but in order to testE01the brightness of the lighting, I still tried it in a dark place. At the first level,1lumens, personally I think it's really not very useful, haha, just a little bit of light in the darkness.
For the second and third levels of brightness, they can fully meet daily lighting needs.
T70It’s labeled as cool white light, but when I compared it with other cool white flashlights, why doesT70seem more like a warm color light? To be honest, I personally prefer this warm-toned light because it doesn’t affect lighting performance, and compared to cool white, it has more uses.
I think for general flashlight lighting, any one will do, but if you’re using it for photography lighting, not just any one will work. The reason I like warm-toned flashlights is also here — photos taken with cool white light often come out overly bright and glaring, while warm-toned light is different. When leading a trip to the seaside and taking everyone to see the starry sky, although there is quite a bit of light pollution by the sea, we could still see the beautifulstarry sky and Milky Way. Look at this group photo taken at night, the lighting was done withE01the second level,20lumens for the shot.
Since that lighting session, I’ve suddenly fallen in love withE01, because its lighting isn’t too bright or too dim, it’s rather soft, which is especially suitable for lighting people when shooting the starry sky.
Of course, withE01, we also have to praiseT70.T70If the lighting is too bright, we can play with it like this.
The first one on the leftT70, the second oneE01.
can also be used this way, making them look like swords in the sky.
But becauseT70’s glow is too strong, so generally during group photos, we can’t use the brightest setting, usually just the second level is enough (the third from the left isT70).
T70can go with us to see that starry sky, the Milky Way, and of course,E01can illuminate our beauty and reflect it in the photos.
Occasionally, meteors streak by as well.
As for the use ofT70, it can also be used for lighting. It’s too bright for portraits, but when shooting some objects, due to theE01beam range issue, we still have toT70to do this job, because onlyT70’s ultra-long range can illuminate each chair on the cable car one by one.
T70gives youE01It’s like a man and a woman, used together, which can make your outdoor life more colorful.
Of course,E01as a miniEDCflashlight, it can also be hung from the top of the tent during camping to serve as camp lighting.
I’m quite satisfied with the pairing of the two flashlights; the only regret is thatE01seems to consume power a bit too quickly, since normally it’s used at least between the second gear20lumens and the third gear100lumens. During use, it might run out of power in just over three hours, so you’ll need extra batteries. Of course, I also hope that Wuben can develop some disposable mini flashlights in future product development—that would be even more perfect.
