The Klarus RS11 is a slick dual switch light with an innovative charging system, but it is a bit big for carrying in your pocket on a daily basis. Klarus created the RS1A and RS16 to fill the need for more compact, easy to charge lights. The RS16 is powered by a single RCR123 battery and can be easily recharged via an included USB cable when an RCR123 battery (included) is in the light. The cable attaches via a magnetic attachment point that makes charging fast and easy. The light can also be powered by a primary lithium CR123 battery, but, of course, cannot be charged when using a CR123 battery.
Features:
- Specially designed magnetic charging connection. When the charging cable is within 1cm of the charging port it self-locates to make the connection. The charging cable can be removed quickly and safely at any time, which makes it an effective flashlight to use in rapid response situations.
- Ergonomically designed to be easy to operate with just one hand.
- Uses a USB interface chargeable design, so you can charge in the home, office, airport, vehicle, etc. Basically, anywhere that has a USB interface. You can also remove the battery and charge separately or even use CR123A batteries (but do not charge CR123A batteries).
- Low loss, high intensity, portable USB charging cable
- Any 16340 rechargeable battery with PCB protection can be used
- Three lighting modes with memory function make it adaptable for different situations.
- Detachable stainless steel strike bezel protects the lens.
- Far throwing to 100 meters.
- Can stand like a candle for long use. Lowest output is 7 lumens over 70 hours
- Anti-short cut design
- Reverse polarity protection circuit protects against incorrect insertion of batteries.
- IPX-8 rated
