- The Wuben X1 is amazing, no doubt about that. 12,000 lumens and has over 300M of throw with an advanced cooling system in its flat-shaped body making this X1 Falcoln one of the top flashlights in its class. But is it the most powerful EDC flashlight? Or, is it practical enough to carry on an everyday basis?

So I got mine yesterday and used it in a real world situation yesterday evening. It was on constantly using mid and high, sometimes turbo for 4 and a half hours. According to the level indicator I still had over 40% charge after that. At first I though it would feel heavy to carry around but it’s not so. It did get hot-ish but I was gripping it it tightly so just holding it on the end using a couple of fingers helped it to cool down. The fan came on when turbo was engaged but is very quite and soon switched itself off. All in all I think this is a great light.
Im getting my X1 this week 😊
Very unique looking flashlights !
Ive been collecting flashlights for 12 years and l love the look of the wuben flashlights!!
Awesome thorough video bro! 🙌🏼
Definitely Great review👍👍
Great review
great review
would be sweet if you can use this as a powerbank to charge other things.
X2 got that Wuben Smile!
Took three months to ship mine. I had to email them and get them to re-ship another one. Now that I got it, the charge indicator never indicates full charge.
As I said in another comment, is that this light is making, but I think they missed an opportunity. 2500 lumen constant IS impressive and I love that, however, this fan is no joke, I wish they had offered a 3500 or maybe 4000 lumen mode where the fan would also run as it does in turbo. Having this fan is a boon for turbo as it gets you a full minute of max lighting, but why not use that fan to the fullest and extend that continuous lumen capability to a higher setting? If you have a fan on the light, you should at least offer 2 fan modes, to do less is a waste. That said, I’m buying the damn light. It’s a good one. I hope they an X1-V2.0 where you get solid runtimes on higher lumen settings, it would basically make this light into more of a unicorn than it already is.
Falcon looks awesome.
I agree not necessarily sized for edc, but absolutely would be complimented by a clip.
What countdown timer is that?
More evidence that we need all the lights in the land.
Just a timer I found on Amazon.
What about the Wuben X1 vs the Sofirn Q8 Plus?
I use mine for work all the time its like having a spotlight in your pocket
what would happen if you ran a USB C cable to it while using it? would it run longer? I mean who want's to wait for their flashlight to charge that's not exactly very practical.
It's tales like these that has had me put off purchasing and sticking with (Nitecore, Surefire, Olight) reliables.😮
Never heard of Wuben but cool torch nonetheless
Great looking light! The value I see in it is that it can run indefinitely at 2500 lumens! What small flashlight can do that? We have too many mega- thousand lumen lights ithat step down in 30 seconds to a 1,000 or less. This will light your way for a long walk or an outdoor project!
EDIT... I just ordered it.
This is so true. This is a rare specimen for sure. Even running turbo for 1 whole minute is miricle territory. I would say that maybe they could have gotten more creative and added a 3500 lumen mode where the fan runs. I don’t know if it would have been sustainable, but running it for a minute at 12k lumen tells me the fan is no joke. A 3500 lumen option would be amazing IMHO and extend the benefits of the fan out a little further.
hey new yorker nice to see you cant wait till the next video
Did I get a knock off from Amazon? Mine says Lightok instead of Falcon. It looks exactly the same and it's bright asf lol
They changed the name so you should have a legit version
Nitecore, fenix, olight, and imalent are the leading brands. Hard to compete against those
They're just 2x INR21700M50T batteries made by LG. Less then $10 each. You can replace the batteries if you want. Should extend the service life of the light if the originals ever wear down.
Don't think it would survive a Katrina situation . But still bad ass!
My TM12K is in my pocket every day no problem. I hit that 12k and everyone says WHOA. Wuben is so big you might as well get a big flashlight with some serious output like a TM20K.
TM12K that has 10 seconds of 12,000 lumens? It’s bright yes but my beam test doesn’t lie
7 seconds just doesn't cut it
Wonder why "SOS" is only 200 lumens?
This is more of a bugout bag or in your vehicle item then edc gear.
I agree based on size. But, this could absolutely be an edc item based on how it carry’s in your pocket. For guys who like larger flashlights, this is hard to beat
12k lumen for an edc seems like overkill. That is a super nice lanyard though
Lately I'm having issues with "edc" flashlights that are not edc at all, an edc fits on a Keychain or takes up a bit of space in your pocket
Depends on what you do. I EDC a much larger light and switching to this has been a lifesaver. Weighs half with similar output. I can put this in my pocket.
I wish aundrill was a option on all lights
Most likely won’t hit the mass EDC market though.
I don't believe I've seen an edc with anduril ... maybe lumintop fw1aa
Anything bigger than AA size cells I don't really consider it an edc
@@cjdelphi FourSevens and Prometheus lights have it
@@cjdelphi several EDC-type flashlights have anduril/anduril 2 UI.
Why is it only 4800 mah if there two 21700 ?
Maybe because they are high amp cells so they have lower capacity ?
it says right on there that's at 7.4v so they're running in series.
@@onenerdarmy Thanks
The fact that they are in series is why Wuben doesn't want you to open it. They are afraid someone will put miss matched cells in it and make fire.
Thank you for your video. Only one thing. I can’t believe you said wonky. Stop it ✌️
Nah, I don’t think I will.
But thanks for watching 👍🏻
Well......Wuben 3 led 12,000......lumentop FW21 PRO. 3 led 10,000 lumens Wuben around 200 dollars. FW21 PRO. around 80.00 and about half the size with a UI that is feature packed.... A no-brainer.....
With all the boastful claims on Amazon....I wonder what a lab would test the Lumes to be?
Compares to everything else that claims similar brightness. Turbo mode is certainly over 10K.
Fenix flashlights be where it’s really at. Fenix or nah fam
This Falcon is half the price of the Fenix lr40r and same brightness. This is lighter and smaller. Plus, technically you can swap the batteries unlike the lr40r version 2.
I do like the build quality of the Fenix better but this is great for a pocket light
Just telling, the x1 falcon is more of 10k lumens, in doesn't touch the 12k lumens at all, but still I prefer the tm12k, we cannot go wrong on nitecore lumens measurement. It will only be exactly 12k lumens for example, or it'll be a bit higher....but i still want it😭it's just I can't handle the price😭
But the TM12k is more money for less usable light over actual time and half the battery capacity. Just a bad deal.
@@onenerdarmy yup that's true, but you wanna talk about quality, my uncle have one of nitecore flashlight, for almost 13 years, but...yeah kind a agree with you
In another review the reviewer tested it and found it is 12,2k lumens. I suppose, as ever YMMV
@@fyvewytches in flashaholics video, they tested it and it's around 10000 lumens, that is when he review flashlight from wuben, and when he reviewed nitecore tm12k, they get 12040 lumens on the result.....what you think bout that🤔
@@flashlight_hunters what I think about it is that I’ll see when mine is delivered later today. Like I wrote previously YMWV. I guess no two lights will be precisely the same. In another review the guy measure full output at 12,2k so who knows. But TBH the 12k setting, like all so called turbo settings, is not what I’m interested in, but rather the long run time on med-high settings. I’ll see tonight, if it’s not good I’ll send it back :)
Dont review in the snow !!
Come on !!
200 bucks for only 12,000 lumens
Only? Lol
These small flashlights with high lumens output are nice on paper, but the immediate step-down ruins it for me and I guess everyone else. The step-down of the Nitecore TM12K after mere seconds is a perfect example. Stick to a maximum of 4000-5000 lumens on a small flashlight. If you want a higher output, go for a bigger flashlight.
NITECORE IS KING!
I mean they’re good. But not in this case I’m afraid.
I'm not sure, every nitecore I've had has died
Nitecore are amazing with the exception of there high output lights that are just gimmicks.

Hard to replace batteries = big turn off 😔
The batteries really aren’t t to be replaced. They’re built in. I just demonstrated how you’d replace those
