Modern flashlights are key items in most people's EDC, but few are as impressive or innovative as the AceBeam UC15. A common trade-off of keychain lights is size over power, as most lights require a robust battery that can be bulky and heavy. However, the AceBeam UC15 manages to pack an incredible 1,000 lumens while still being able to hide on a key-ring or in a pocket. This 1,000 lumens is easily achieved via the flashlight's lithium-ion batteries, but the flashlight can also be powered by two common AAA batteries that output 250 lumens with a 14-hour runtime.
The standard light on the flashlight is also complemented by two special LEDs. These special lights give the AceBeam UC15 a red beam, ideal for preserving night vision, as well as a UV beam for forensic needs. All of this is packed into an anodized aluminum shell with an IP54-rated resistance.
