FlashlightZ Opinion

KLARUS Lighting is a flashlight manufacturer that was established in June 2011. Even though it's a relatively new flashlight company, their popularity and reputation have been growing rapidly. It's no surprise, considering all of their innovate flashlights and other products, including flashlight accessories such as gun mounts, remote pressure switches, and even wands you can put on the flashlight that diffuses the flashlight beam itself.

One of the great things about KLARUS is their wide range of flashlights. You can find a simple, tactical flashlight or you can find an advanced, versatile flashlight that's prepared for any situation. For example, you very the KLARUS XT11. This is one of their most popular flashlights in the original XT series. The XT11 is a straightforward, tactical flashlight that provides a maximum lumen output of 1,060. It has a dual tactical tail switch, which has become popular and beloved among the KLARUS flashlights. In fact, in many KLARUS flashlight reviews, you will see that reviewers just fall in love with that tactical tail switch. It makes it easy for you to pull your flashlight out and immediately turn it on or immediately use the strobe if necessary. The secondary switch on that tactical tail switch allows you to activate that strobe mode immediately, whether the flashlight is on or off, making this a supreme self-defense tool. That strobe mode can blind an attacker easily and allow you to escape quickly.

Of course, that's not all the Klarus XT11 has to offer. It also features four different settings, the strobe mode, which I already mentioned, and three other brightness settings, the high, medium, and low modes, so you can choose which mode is necessary at the time. The high mode, as I've mentioned, delivers 1,060 lumens or 1,060 is probably a better way to say that. But you don't need to use the high mode all the time. The low mode really shines in situations where you need to read something maybe at night or you just kind of want a little bit of illumination in front of you but you don't really want to draw attention to yourself. This is where the low mode really shines.

The Klarus XT11 is also really compact and comes with a pocket clip, so you can carry it on your person at any time. It also comes with a holster if you don't want to use that pocket clip and just want to attach that holster onto your belt, you can carry that flashlight around quite easily.

Of course, every KLARUS flashlight is incredibly high quality. So, the XT11 is constructed from aircraft grade aluminum and is impact resistant, up to 1 meter in waterproof, up to IPX-8 standards, which means that you can put it under water for 2 meters and for 30 minutes and it'll work perfectly.

This is a complete straightforward, tactical flashlight. You can pick up this flashlight, mess with it for a few minutes, and know everything about it. Exactly how it works, exactly what you need to know. You can pick up the flashlight every single time and not have to question which button does what. It is incredibly intuitive.

For first-time tactical flashlight buyers, I would recommend the XT11 simply because you are getting a high quality product and a high quality flashlight. You know that this flashlight is going to last you but you don't need to worry about any advanced settings such as different programmable settings or anything like that. It's just straightforward. You just mess with it for a few minutes and you're good to go.

There's a reason the Klarus XT11 is so popular and the rest of the flashlights in the XT series, for that matter. Each flashlight in the XT series is tactical, high quality, innovative, and quite versatile. If you watch several KLARUS flashlight reviews, you'll see the same patterns continually pop up. KLARUS really does like that tactical tail switch and, for a reason, that dual tactical tail switch. It'll have that momentary on function that is so important in tactical flashlights, that it allows you to access the turbo mode immediately without having to press the button down all the way. And, as I said before, it has that secondary switch that allows you to access the strobe mode. However, when the flashlight's on, it also allows you to access the other brightness levels.

If you're wanting a more advanced flashlight than the simple XT11, then I would probably direct you to its upgraded version, the Klarus XT11GT. This flashlight is quite the flashlight to learn. It does not have a simple interface like the XT11. It delivers 2,000 lumens and features three different switches. It has that dual tactical tail switch and it also has a side switch and you can choose which switch you prefer. It does have a lockout function for the side switch if you'd rather not use the side switch.

The reason the XT11GT is so advanced is because of the three different operation settings that you can choose between. Each operation setting is meant for a specific situation which, of course, you can choose which setting is the best for which situation you're about to enter. Whether it's an outdoor setting or a more tactical setting, that's up to you.

While we're excited about all of these advanced and innovative products, I can't help but look back at the simple products that KLARUS has made that has caused their reputation to rise in popularity, and that's the XT11 and the other XT series flashlights. KLARUS began by making these simple, intuitive, tactical flashlights that simply didn't exist on the market at the time. KLARUS brought something new to the flashlight world and the flashaholics are incredibly grateful for it. KLARUS flashlights can be used in a myriad of different settings and professions, anywhere from law enforcement, to security, search and rescue, camping outdoors, or even just to have around the house for an emergency. These flashlights will not let you down.

Another great thing about KLARUS is that they're always pushing the boundaries and challenging themselves to see what more they can come out with. This year, they came out with the XT30R, which was considered a hunting/search light. This light was amazing. It delivered 1,800 lumens and had a beam distance of 820 meters. That was insane. Whenever you took the flashlight out in the yard, just seeing how bright it was and how far it reached, was beyond impressive.

But then, KLARUS comes out with the G35. This is the grandest, brightest search light you will find. It delivers 2,000 lumens and reaches 1,000 meters, which the human eye can't even see that far. But, nonetheless, you see just how brightly it illuminates everything. If you watch or read any KLARUS flashlight review about this G35, it's amazing just to see how bright it is. That being said, not everyone needs a flashlight that can have a beam throw that's so incredibly far. Many people prefer having a more floody beam rather than a focused beam, and that's fine. KLARUS definitely has many of those, too. In fact, the XT11, while it has a focused beam, it has a good amount of spill to it as well, so you can illuminate the area you quite easily. Most KLARUS flashlights are like that. While many have a focused beam, they will also have a decent amount of spill, so you'll always see a good amount of the area around you.

KLARUS has truly made some innovate, amazing products and any time they're going to come out with something new, we are always excited to hear and share it with everyone. These flashlights are incredible and if you are looking for a high quality flashlight that you can rely on time and time again, I will always point you to KLARUS because I do really believe KLARUS is one of the best flashlight companies and manufacturers that you'll find.
