Product Description
The Palm Blaze model K23C is the best Quality Flashlight using the 2nd generation Luxeon K2 LED from Silicon Valley (San Jose, California, USA). The K2 has improved battery efficiency, generates less heat, and has a higher brightness than the Luxeon V. It has the convenient front switch and a trademark square beam for the K2. This is one of Best American Technology. * Warning: There are some non-Luxeon made counterfeit 1W, 3W, and sometimes even claim 8 Watt LED on the market. They are half as bright at best and have a bluish color beam. Their light will be greatly reduced after just few hours of use due to poor quality and poor heatsink property. They are much cheaper but they are definitely not the quality of Luxeon. They are usually shipped out from Hong Kong. They are also subject to patent infringement problems. - 2 levels from 100%, 25%, and flashing - Long battery life - 30 hours at high setting (15 hours at maximum output). 100 hours at low (25% setting). - Flashing mode (hold down switch for 3 seconds) is great for a road emergency or warning signal - Accessory: Handsome nylon pouch to insert into your belt - Water resistant, very durable aluminum housing - Up to 100,000 hours LED life - Very well focused square beam (you get a 2' square of even illumination at about 10'). It is very good for police work. Manufactured in ISO 9000 certified factory with latest CNC machines and Surface Mount Technology robotic equipments. Ultra high quality finish and diamond pattern grip surface Patented design with patented US Made Luxeon LED, it is not a cheap copycat version. Battery: 3 C size alkaline batteries (not included), you can use rechargeable NiMH batteries Weight: 358g with batteries Product Size: 43.5mm D x 220.5mm L (1.71" D x 8.68")

 Quality, brightness and cheap standard batteries September 10, 2008
George Gonzalez (Miami, FL)
A great flashlight, the two settings are 'bright as hell' and 'even brighter.' The 5-10 dollar flashlights sold here are no comparison! I use the low setting for inspecting inside crawlspaces and attics. The high setting at night will light up a neighbor's tree over half a block away. The high setting could be dangerous at night, causing temporary blindness. Don't point this at oncoming traffic! No really, I mean it!
 Economical and a good purchase January 1, 2008

Just received the light so I haven't had enough time to test battery life. However, the construction of the light is well built, similar to a mag lights construction with a good switch to cycle through the three modes of operation (100%, 25%, and quick flashing). I have been comparing this light to the "Nitestar Brightest 5W Luxeon LED flashlight with 2 Lithium batteries - silver" also ordered through Exciting products, and have been pleased. This light (Palm Blaze) has a very bright, focused "square" beam which should throw long distances, however the color of light is not as white as the Nitestar 5W (not sure if it's just my unit). Overall, I am very pleased with this purchase - I still love the Nitestar 5W due to it's smaller size and whiter light, but the Palm Blaze is a more economical choice (runs on 3-C's instead of expensive lithium) for everyday need of a bright, well-built flashlight. I used to use a Mag 2-D Led light around the house, but will be replacing it with this brighter alternative.
Excellent light for the cost! August 2, 2007

I carried a Streamlight Stinger for 5 years. It was wearing out and I was looking at trying a LED. I liked this one because you don't have to keep clicking it to get high power. First push is full power. If you want lower, you give another push right away. It fit's the holster for my Stinger, only weighs 3 ounces more, and puts out a lot more nice, white, bright light. With a set of rechargeable batteries it's still half the cost of a Stinger and a very well made light. I like it a lot!
