Valentine's Day LED Flashlight - Klarus Mi7

Let's be honest, when most think of Valentine's day they probably aren't thinking about LED flashlights which is exactly what makes it a unique gift. Granted, we’re a little late in posting this, but better late than never, especially for those of you who may have forgotten! For this Valentine's day, we want to focus on a very specific flashlight because it comes in some very fun Valentine's day colors: specifically, red and pink. We can think of many reasons to give a loved one a flashlight, but let's just focus on one important reason. A flashlight is a really handy tool that you would use more often than you think. For many of us, it's imperative that we’re able to see and being left in the dark can make us feel uneasy. A flashlight is a common household tool, but can be used everyday in ways you may not have thought of. So in this blog, we're going to focus on the Klarus Mi7, a fun and practical everyday carry flashlights that is small enough to carry in your pocket or in your purse.

Best Everyday Carry Flashlight

The Klarus Mi7 is a popular everyday carry flashlights and it's no wonder why. It's packed with features that make it useful and easy to use. It also costs about $30, which is a great price for a Valentine's day gift. So let's dive into the features of the Mi7 flashlight.

Powerful LED Flashlight

First and foremost, the Mi7 is a very powerful compact flashlight that delivers up to 700 lumens. For a flashlight that is less than 4 inches in length, this output is incredibly impressive. The Mi7 features an orange peel reflector that creates a wonderful smooth and broad beam, perfect for up-close work. It's single side switch makes it easy to operate and, what's more, you can lock out the side switch to prevent any accidental illumination while in your pocket or in your purse.

EDC Light with Multiple Outputs

The Mi7 everyday carry flashlight features three brightness levels that range from 5 lumens to 700 lumens as well as two flashing modes: a strobe mode and an SOS mode. On the lowest brightness level, the Mi7 can last 67 hours on a full battery, which is extremely impressive. You can make this flashlight last a very long time before you need to charge or replace the battery. The different brightness levels really come in handy because you won't always need 700 lumens of power. In fact, you may even prefer using the medium and low brightness levels, especially when you are searching for an item that you perhaps dropped under the couch or in your car. You have immediate access to the lowest brightness level as well as the highest brightness level which also comes in handy.

Also, the Mi7 is able to tail stand an act as a lantern. This is a particularly useful feature when you need both hands or if there's a power outage and you would like to illuminate the area around you. Once you use the tail stand ability, you'll fall in love with that function and use the light like that more often than you'd think.

AA Flashlight

The Mi7 is compatible with a 14500 battery or an AA battery. In order to get the full 700 lumens, you will need a 14500 battery. Using an AA battery, you'll be seeing a maximum output of 330 lumens. This is still an excellent amount of light for any everyday carry flashlight, and is more than adequate in most everyday carry situations. Either way, it's excellent that the Mi7 is able to run on a couple of different battery types, especially since AA batteries are a little easier to find than 14500 batteries.

The Mi7 features a battery capacity indicator that you can check out anytime and get a good idea of how much charge you have left in your battery. This is an incredibly handy function that allows you to plan your usage a little bit more when using your flashlight. It also features reverse polarity protection so that the flashlight and battery are both protected if you accidentally put the battery in incorrectly.

Durable EDC Flashlight,

The Mi7 is also a very durable flashlight. It's constructed from aerospace-grade aluminum alloy with a military-grade hard anodized finish making it wear resistant. The lens is a mineral lens that has a hardened anti-reflective coating to protect the LED and give you a clear beam. The Mi7 is impact-resistant up to 1 meter and is waterproof up to IPX8 standards. This means that you could submerge the Mi7 in 2 meters of water for 30 minutes, pull it out, and it would work just fine. So you can feel confident using your Mi7 flashlight during any rain storm or not worry about it if you accidentally drop it in a puddle.
