ACEBEAM H16 650 High Lumen Rechargeable Head Torch,EDC AA Right Angle Torch

I was slightly sceptical about this due to its size, boy was I wrong. It’s outstanding, much brighter than I could’ve imagined. Tiny, lightweight, very sturdily made and great idea that you can charge the battery (quickly) via USB C. Has a magnetic base too, along with a handy clip for your rucksack or pocket for hands free use. Highly recommended.

Excellent torch, small and compact but good and bright. I use it at work and accidentally washed it in my boiler suit. Charged it up and it worked fine. Had it for nearly a year and no problems with it. Great piece of kit especially for the money.

I recently picked up a Milpoel headlamp for travel, in case I get stuck somewhere with a power cut and needed a headband torch. It turns out to be quite bulky and doesn't fold up well, because of the extended luminous band. It's also recharge-only, so if I find it's discharged I'm stuck. Seeking a solution, I picked up a RovyVon E3, which can be powered by both a AAA (which lives in it) and its internal battery. Sleek and light, but not a headlamp unless it's clipped to a baseball cap. I resigned myself to attaching it to a "COVID shielding" wristband, but it's less convenient if I need both hands and clear lighting. Enter the H16. It's bulkier than the E3, but since you're either using the internal battery or a AA, not both, not by much. And it comes with a headband that's just a headband, and therefore folds up fairly small (and won't get broken in travel). I'd have preferred the brighter, whiter version, but this is okay. Firefly mode is fine for reading in the dark, and useful for not waking people. Brighter modes are, on the rechargeable battery, bright enough to be useful, and reasonably easy (and standard) to access - hold from off for firefly, double-click from off to on, hold when on for brightness selection, double-click when on for turbo. I'm not sure the triple-click SOS mode is going to be useful (it's not blazingly bright either), but the tail stand magnet is reasonably strong, so it might be useful for dealing with the car at night. (Aside: Many people talk about buying a light to "leave in the car". They have an optimistic impression of how warm a closed car can get in direct sunlight - I've had multiple cans explode - and how good an idea this is for lithium batteries; mine's staying in a carry bag, thanks.) The mode selection is similar enough to the Rovyon that I'll probably manage with it, and the button is easy to find. My main objection to the UI is there's no lock-out mode. Some have suggested the traditional partial unscrewing of the tail cap to do that, but by the time it's locked out, the tail falls off. I'm relying on clipping it in my bag at an angle where the button is unlikely to get pressed, but at least it needs a double-press to turn on fully. I'll probably carry both it and the Rovyvon, since then I can cope with access to both AA and AAA if I somehow end up in a hurricane. Downsides: The clip is a bit bulky, and just long enough that you can't turn it to the same side as the lamp to save space. Flipped the other way up (which you can do, although since the clip is reversible anyway it's a bit redundant) it overhangs the end, so tail stand won't work. I think (I haven't tried) you have to take the clip off to get it into the headband, which is a little annoying. The headband isn't exactly premium, but if I made more use of it I'd be looking at a more dedicated headlight anyway. I mostly use magnetic USB connections, which won't work with the battery's integrated port (there's no room between the battery and case) - but that's not a major issue for an emergency. My biggest concern is the lack of lockout, but that's a matter of storage. I've not tried it on an actual AA battery, and reports are that it's somewhat inefficient, but I'd take "inefficient" over "no power". All in all, not blown away, but it complements what I normally use. I hope I don't need to use the AA mode in anger, but I'll see how much it helps with late night car issues.

Was on offer so didn’t pay much more than the battery would cost on its own. That said I would pay full price for this. Easy to use, great brightness, I have the grey one, nice deep clip, well built, fantastic battery, enough brightness options and it’s a headlight as well. I haven’t used the head strap but it looks decent enough, I use this on my coat with the clip. Very impressed for the offer price.

Received this and was blown away by the quality, size and amount of light it produced. Was barely used it for the first month of ownership other than for maybe 5 minutes a couple of times a week. Upon getting a dog 2 weeks ago my usage increased and now unfortunately it has died. The battery appears fine, but the touch does not work with any batteries now so can only see it’s a problem with the unit itself. Such a shame for a promising product.

Exactly what I was looking for, the brightness was incredible for something so small, battery life is okay but dose die out pretty quick depending on how high you have the brightness. But value for money would recommend.

If you want to use this as a task light for diy then this is not for you . It’s a running light so you can be visible and see in front at night but it’s not very powerful .

Small and light. Easy to clip on your clothes or the supplied headband. Good colour rendition (for wiring, reading safety labels etc). Bright enough for most jobs and a low moonlight mode to preserve night vision. A magnetic base and deep carry clip are icing on the cake.

super contento, la unica pega que le encuentro es que no tiene luz roja. Por lo demas, perfecto

Is bright. Definitely 650 Lumens! Very intuitive control button.

Après usage la batterie ne tient pas du tout la charge. Sinon marche très bien. Dommage

Torcia da 1000 lumen (solo la versione in grigio) fantastica che tra le decine che ho è diventata la mia N.1 da EDC. Batteria ricaricabile compresa. In modalità turbo proietta fascio enorme che illumina tranquillamente palazzo di 5 piani. Dimensioni ridotte pari ad altre torce AA. Must have

Additional Update: The replacement flashlight has been holding up very well. Charging easily. Being used frequently. As well, I found the old one. Thankfully I hadn't thrown it out. While the battery on that one still absolutely refuses to charge, it also takes... a AA or AAA. And, it works fairly well with it. So, now, I have two of them going. One isn't rechargeable, but it doesn't burn through batteries like some flashlights do. I have a black and orange one. Sometimes I have both on. Gives me a lot of adjustable, handsfree, light. And they are bright enough for any of my needs. Since they did me a good turn, I... wanted to add another plug. --------- I received the first one, but the battery wouldn't charge. I tried to return it, ran into all sorts of trouble. Then just ran out of time. I assumed it was a lost cause, so wrote a review. Unlike some companies, they didn't just scramble to figure out how to remove or hide my review, but instead contacted me. Sent me a new one. The second one works perfectly. After the initial charge, I haven't had to recharge since? Crazy, but... And I have it with me as daily wear, and use it quite often. I don't use it as a headlamp, but clip it to my jacket, and use it like a motorcycle's light, centerline, lower. For taking the trash out, on dark mornings... cooking on my griddle later at night, or when dark. Wonderful. I don't know where the first one got to. Didn't realize it took regular batteries. If I find it, I will try that. Still, this one is very good. I am grateful that they took care of the problem. And, now, I am very thankful for the product. It does exactly what I hoped it would do. Just... another good tool, for my odd, sometimes simple, sometimes messy, needs and wants. Very good item. Original Review - "The "chargeable" battery wouldn't take a charge. Had trouble getting a refund ticket, kept dodging an easy way to get it in, so lost my opportunity. Will never buy anything from amazon with those types of batteries. They really jacked me around on a return. Don't buy this thing. It might work, it very well may not. Then good luck doing a return or exchange." - Upgraded from one to five start.
