Is this a real Ultrafire flashlight or just a knock off?

Works with aaa bateries only, or for about 1 seconds with the high voltage ones then goes off.

the one i got seemed legit...but then i came back for more..I bought two more for some other people and I found that each one was different In many ways...so quality control isn't very tight...and one is having wiring problems already...and it takes way too long to get to ya...get a zebralight SC600 MII L2..you won't regret it

Good enough. It doesn't remember the last mode it was on after restart... Thats a handy feature.

I have to admit I was skeptical at first but if it is a "knock-off from overseas" I'll be buying more knock-offs. It is without a doubt the brightest flashlight I have ever owned. It is better made than my assortment of Mag and Mini-Mag Lights. I received mine along with its battery and charger within five days of ordering it. I also ordered a spare battery. I bought mine at such a ridiculous discount that I was skeptical about its quality but figured I could always return it or simply toss it in the glove box of my truck. Needless to say I was very pleased with its rugged construction and the intensity of its beam. I plan on purchasing additional units for the family cars and my electrical repair tool box.

I can assure you, sir, that mine is real. Yes, I received the flashlight in exchange for an HONEST review, but it was an honest review. This is a beyond great flashlight and I stated that in my review.

Only "Amazon Customer" seems to have the real, full spectrum, original manufacturer, the hypenated Ott-Lite.manufacturers that use the OTT Lite name are all over the ''Chinese imitations Unld. knockoff market." I love how reviewer Shelby Morris just threw her/his lamp out..too much trouble to get the true full spectrum lite..I prefer the best, the Ott-Lite helped me with SAD and provides lighting even better than our old standard, incandescent. Just one opinion, quality can make you feel better, not smug, just plain better.Mine is over 30 years old.. Goodwill wont be getting it.

It is a high quality blacklight. I have been looking for something like this for a while.I had previously purchased a small flashlight promising to be UV/blacklight but it was useless. This will give the deep fluorescence needed to find pet urine, scorpions, etc.Also excellent for seeing how clean your house is- yuck! You will see the parts of the floor you missed, and spills you did not cleanup properly.And fishing line- wow! Makes 20# fluorescent yellow fishing line look like 1/4" rope.Also good for checking counterfeit bills and looking at IDs. Shows hidden graphics on your passport and drivers license.I buying more for gifts for Xmas. It is a high quality blacklight.

I just uploaded two images to the Amazon site for this flashlight. I'm not an expert on this at all, but I hope the pictures help you out :)

There is no difference. That is what flashlights are called in the UK/Europe.

I haven't verified the specs but I was just looking for a bright flashlight, solid and compact. It was all of the above and cheap. I would prefer rechargeable but this is one of the brightest small flash light I have ever seen. I have a couple high quality LED flashlights for night dog walking and short commute/biking, which I thought were fine, this one is brighter.

no and they are fake! total complete knock off. read my review, be VERY careful who you buy ultrafires from, they are nearly all Chinese knockoffs of a Chinese product.

do not buy this one. Burned out in one day. get the Streamled cree xml-T6 1oooLM STREAMLED: 1000LM Lumen UltraFire C8 CREE XM-L T6 LED Flashlight Torch 18650 Battery Charger

I don't think so. There are many kinds of this flashlight in the all have different names on them. I think they just print the name on it. But it works, and its cheap

It looks like a Cree but the quality is better, so I do not believe it is. However this light broke after dropping it just a few times from only a few feet high. It is not very durable.

Frankly, yes these are all "knockoffs" of eachother, there is no "real one"....many many manufacturers producing almost identical versions. Most of them are awesome. I suspect you were very happy with yours once you saw how it performed, but it is very likely if you ordered another one today it wouldnt be exactly alike, you'd notice tiny differences.

I don't know but this is the bright flashlight I have ever had. I'm a flashlight junkie I love them and this one is great. I live in the country and have 4 dogs that sometimes go crazy at night and with no street lights this flash light can locate them on our fenced 3 acres, no problem

No unfortunately. I bought it from blue lover and I received a clone. The only real thing was the circuit boards but the components are fake. It only has high and off. I could give you a link to a real 3 mode for you if you want. Just 20c more.It's herehttp://www.amazon.com/Zoomable-Adjustable-Focus-Flashlight-Torch/dp/B007FC5A5Q/ref=pd_ys_sf_s_228013_a1_3_p?ie=UTF8&refRID;=0BXAF7S0W9KXXCGEWH0QIt has high, low and flashing/strobe and off

Yes, mine is branded Ultra Fire on one side and Cree Q5 on the other. I'm quite familiar with the LED flashlight market and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised at what a good flashlight--and value--this is.
