Miniature Fiery Flashlights

Wicked Lasers' FlashTorch Mini Can Start Fires for Camping

— October 25, 2016 — Tech
Wicked Lasers' FlashTorch Mini is a camping flashlight with a serious amount of power. True to the British term, the FlashTorch Mini is so strong that it can act as a literal torch, lighting fires with its bulb.

The FlashTorch Mini's specs are impressive. It packs the same amount of power as Wicked Lasers' original, larger FlashTorch, with a light that blasts 2,300 lumens. However, the new light is just over eight and a half inches long, making it far easier to carry around on camping trips compared to its larger relative.

On full power, the FlashTorch Mini is capable of starting fires or acting as a constant source of heat for cooking meals. However, if consumers want to conserve energy in the rechargeable battery, they can reduce the lumens to their needs.
Trend Themes
1. Portable High-powered Flashlights - The popularity of portable flashlights with high lumens is increasing, providing opportunities for companies to create innovative and powerful lighting solutions for various industries.
2. Compact Outdoor Lighting - The demand for compact lighting solutions for outdoor activities like camping is growing, presenting an opportunity for companies to develop compact flashlights with strong illumination capabilities.
3. Energy-efficient Rechargeable Flashlights - There is a trend towards energy-efficient rechargeable flashlights that offer versatile illumination settings, creating opportunities for companies to produce innovative and sustainable lighting solutions.
Industry Implications
1. Outdoor Retail - The outdoor retail industry can capitalize on the demand for compact and powerful flashlights by offering a range of portable lighting products for various outdoor activities like camping, hiking, and fishing.
2. Emergency Preparedness - The emergency preparedness industry can benefit from high-powered flashlights that can start fires and provide a constant source of heat, as these flashlights can be essential in survival situations during natural disasters or power outages.
3. Camping Equipment - The camping equipment industry can tap into the trend of compact outdoor lighting by designing and manufacturing smaller, lightweight, and powerful flashlights that are easy to carry and provide bright illumination for campers.
