What is the beam distance of this light? How is it at a quarter mile? Half mile?

This is a second answer to the same question; generally no flashlight will illuminate anything at ½ or ¼ mile with any intensity, regardless what the manufacture may claim. But this small flashlight is one powerful item; generally speaking I would estimate that at a distance of 200 to 500 feet away, it would light up most every thing in your view. With two batteries supplied there is plenty of power, but I would suggest ordering an extra two batteries that only cost about $8.00 extra. There is nothing better than having two extra fully charged batteries when your power is running low. A GREAT flashlight for a LOW COST.

Less than 1/4 of a mile, BUT a very good flashlight for the low cost, and we'll worth the money.

I have been really disappointed with the brightness of this light and have not tried the 1/4 mile test and wonder if it will even reach that far.

About 15 - 20 feet depending on the amount of indoor light. More in the dark. Beam doesn't level multiple dimensions though. Best suited for flat surfaces like walls, not construction applications.

I have two of these lights on the front of my garage . the garage is 40 feet long , the two lights beam out at least 50 feet into my drive . they are very bright lie day time .

I don't know its limit, as far as distance. However I shine it into the back of my yard, which is about 150 feet away, and it lights everything up quite well. As far as the spread of the beam, I would say it's in between a wide beam and a spot. I have owned the light for about 6 months, and I have no complaints, especially for the comparatively low cost.

I have it mounted 20' up on the side of a tree in my backyard. Mine shines about a 30' out from the tree. I'm happy with the light.

This one is OK but it doesn't have deep reflectors that are needed for distance. The furthest throwing lights I know of are the Nitecore TM36 at 1.1Km and the Olight SR95 at 1 Km. Another nice light is the Niwalker Vostro BK-FA01. It is 755m and is much cheaper than the other two I suggested. Wait for sales on these lights as MSRP prices are high. Going Gear has good deals sometimes but wait for the sales unless you need it now. This Trustfire light is more floody but has some distance. 750m is probably beyond this lights range. It isn't designed for throw but does put out at least 2K lumens. 11K is way over rated. Good luck.

I've got mine mounted 8' off the ground. That gives me about a 10' beam of bright light and 20' of useable light. Hope this helps.

Sorry but i don't have a quantitative answer. I can tell you that I've got two of these LED lights mounted 18 to 20 feet off the ground at each end of my two story house. They light an area about 140 feet wide by 60 feet deep brightly enough that i don't need a flashlight to pick up after my dog! I replaced two halide vapor lights that had the usual orange cast. These lights are pure white and to the eye the effect seems much brighter.

More of a flood type work light. Produce good light up to say 25-30'. If you are looking for long range driving lights these are Not what your looking for.

Realistically it's usable out to about 450~550 feet or about 150M. if you need something to shine out usable light at that kind of distance you need to look into a purpose made spot light.

How far? Not sure how to answer. It puts out a lot of light at short distance for working on equipment after dark. I can put it on a metal cabinet about 4 feet away from the generator and have plenty of light to service the machine. When using it as a flashlight, it works as a flood light, wide beam but not "bright", plenty of light to see what you are walking through and provides enough illumination to tell the difference between a cat and a skunk at 30 feet.. The kid steals it all the time to walk down and feed the horses, overall a good light to have, especially when the power goes out..

I bought the light and it is plenty bright. I think the true output is 520.The spot is very tight ans so using it to walk the dog is iffy. I added a removable diffuser to the lense. Another poing is that to turn it on you turn a knob. (Not what you expect).

It's very bright for such a small light. I would say the beam shines 150 yds before faltering off. If you really need a tight compact beam for ultra long distance, this wouldn't be a good fit.I'm guessing this has a 20' diameter spot at 100yrs. Also, I'm very surprised at the operating time before charges. It's very good. Build quality is excellent, marine quality. I was tired of buying cheap flashlights that only last a few years. This will last a few decades.

its 1.61 inches. but this thing throws such a bright light that even when properly aimed on high i get high beamed by cars. it lights all the way to my tire, and thats with the beam hitting 30' ahead. i also run this on my gas powered scooter at night, i have yet to out run this light (45mph)

Brian, not sure about your question, but I can tell you this, this light is a very powerful Baby :) you have to keep it at least 4 or five inches away,, MORE then the instruction's recommend. I have several different sizes of these lights and they are all like that, VERY NICE LIGHTS I LOVE EM :)

Hi Joe, It can reach a good distance if the house lights are dim. If not maybe a 30-35ft radius. Has lots of colors & modes. Hope that helps you.

The light range seems to work best at about 4 to 5 feet, but the light is still strongly visible at about 8+ feet away.
