The Gorillatorch Flare delivers a powerful, smooth, and even beam fueled by its ultra-bright 100-lumen CREE LED, making it a wonderful work or reading light. Equipped with both white and red LED lights and blinking strobe modes, the Gorillatorch Flare is also prepared for any emergency. A simple push button lets you cycle through the six lighting modes, three different brightness levels for white light plus a strobe mode, in addition to both continuous and strobe red light modes, allowing you to select the best type of light for the task at hand. At its brightest setting, the Gorillatorch Flare offers 20 hours of continuous use, while you'll get up to 80 hours of battery life on economy or strobing modes. The Gorillatorch Flare uses 3 included AA batteries. Designed with real-life situations in mind, like changing batteries in the dark, all the batteries slide in the same direction.

Endless Uses

Using over two dozen leg joints that bend and rotate 360°, you can securely attach your Gorillatorch Flare to just about anything—use its bendable legs to attach it to the bedpost for lights-out reading, wrap it onto a tree branch to illuminate your campsite, or even straighten the legs and use it as a handheld flashlight to walk the dog. Your imagination is the only limit when it comes to using your Gorillatorch Flare.

Using its powerful neodymium magnetic feet, the Gorillatorch Flare can attach itself to metal surfaces such as car hoods when checking the engine, late night tire changes, or a fuse box door during power outages.

With the addition of red light, the Gorillatorch Flare now helps for both roadside emergencies as well as for night vision on a stargazing hike.

Built with tough, durable ABS plastic body and polycarbonate lens, the Gorillatorch Flare is ready to illuminate your adventures. In case things get wet, it's built water resistant (certified IPX5), meaning that it withstands water sprayed at it from every angle. With the Gorillatorch Flare, you'll have light no matter how hard it rains. Ready for rough work environments, the Gorillatorch Flare is impact resistant and has been tested to sustain drops of up to 2 meters (6 feet).

When the job is done, the Gorillatorch Flare's ultra-adaptable form factor enables you to stow it anywhere, from your trunk to your backpack. Using the magnetic feet, even the refrigerator door can make a good habitat for this little guy. It measures 7.87 x 2.95 x 2.56 inches and weighs 4.1 ounces (6.6 ounces with batteries installed). The Gorillatorch Flare is backed by a limited 1-year warranty.
