Wuben L3 Fast Charging Bright Flashlight

I have become quite the fan of Wuben over the years and love when they release new lights.

I'm going to start with my only dislike; it's minor, but I wanted to mention it. The UI for the light is not my favorite out there. I love customization, so Anduril has been a go-to for me. There is nothing wrong with this UI; it's just a personal preference. It's simple, so once you know it, you know it, and I guess that's the smarter move when trying to reach a wider demographic for your light.

Wuben continues to have amazing customer service and delivers high-quality lights at a reasonable price. I have owned other Wuben lights for a few years now, and they're still going strong. This one packs a punch with the 21700 @4800 mAh (I'm a big fan of the batteries they supply with their lights). There is only one way to turn it on, and that's the tail switch, and I know that may be a deal breaker to some, but this switch is smooth and sensitive and will not leave your thumb or finger of choice feeling the fatigue. It also has raised edges to help with accidental presses, and when it's in memory mode, it needs to be held down in order for the light to operate. Let's just say I own a "high-end" light that's not from Wuben, and I can't stand the tail switch on it. Wuben definitely put some time into the design here.

The dual USB is also a nice touch I like seeing added here. I will most likely never use it, but if I needed it, it's there, and I always have an extra cable with me or in my kit in the first place, so if the power banks I usually take along lost their juice, then I know I can get a decent charge from L3.

For me personally, this is a well-rounded light because, yes, it can throw a beam, but it's also not a tight beam, so there is some spill to it. It's almost right in the middle of a flooder/thrower, leaning towards more spill, which provides enough of both to serve in multiple situations.

If you need a reliable EDC light that packs a punch and can withstand just about anything you put it through, then check this one out. Also, if you like great customer service. Wuben has always done right by me, and that encourages me to use their products.

This is the 2nd wuben I’ve bought and can honestly say they’re making these flashlights better with every new model. For a comparison My first wuben end cap had a small on/off button with the charging port right next to each other what a horrible design. This new L3 end cap is amazing with more functions built into one button and the charging port concealed under a ring at the opposite end of the light. The battery is much bigger is dimensions and puts out serious light when needed. This flashlight comes in at a good price point for the performance it delivers. This (L3) has now become my edc for work.

The Wuben L3 is an absolute powerhouse. From the moment I turned it on, I was blown away by its brightness—an incredible beam that cuts through darkness like a spotlight. Whether you're camping, working outdoors at night, or preparing for emergencies, the L3 delivers unmatched performance. Its build quality is rock-solid, and the high lumen output lasts surprisingly long thanks to the efficient battery system. The turbo mode is insanely bright, easily outshining other flashlights in its class. Wuben nailed it with this one—it's now my go-to flashlight for anything serious. Highly recommended!

This flashlight is pretty cool. It's definitely not small, but compared to other flashlights this bright, it's definitely smaller. =) The ability to use it to charge other devices is also pretty cool as a "keep in your car, or in your bag" light. Would not necessarily consider it EDC (it's a little large for that).

Wuben as a brand has been very consistent over the last few years. I have several of their products (several kickstartered) and I've been very happy with all of them. I don't think you'll be disappointed with this one either

My wife says I'm a flashlight nut. Not because I have 20 or 30 flashlights, it's because I have diving lights but don't know how to swim.
It because it has 7 lighting modes one of which is an SOS mode. Useful on a sinking ship? Maybe but I don't know anyone who knows that an SOS signal is.
I am super impressed with the fit and finish, it's literally flawless. It is a piece of flashlight art. I keep picking it up just to marvel at its design. Even the white lettering on the body is impeccable. Its's really a beautiful flashlight (if you think flashlights can be beautiful)
I think the most impressive feature is the protected charging port. It has to be far more waterproof than a rubber plug. This design is genius. I also like its ability to tail stand. a useful feature when using it as a work light. The pocket clip is industrial size. I don't think this is a pants pocket size or weight flashlight, but the clip is strong enough to hold it to a backpack or tool bag without worrying about it falling off. However it certainly will fit in any jacket pocket Because of its 3000-lumen output it eliminates the need for anything larger for 99% of what you might need a flashlight for. For all round usefulness this flashlight will be hard to beat.
This thing is really built like a tank; it just feels that way when you first pick it up. I'm not saying you could hammer nails with it, but you certainly could beat off a bad guy with a few bashes to the head.
I haven't had a lot of time to use it at night. but from my preliminary use it does case a nice beam a great distance. It can easily light up all the houses on my block from top to bottom (sorry neighbors).
I don't see any negatives on this flashlight, but I would like to make a few suggestions. A slightly crenelated bezel so if you accidently put the flashlight face down you could easily see if you left it on. The rubber tail cap switch seems a bit thin compared to other flashlights I own. And finally, the lanyard could be a bit beefier for such a brute of a flashlight.
In summary, I have no regrets. It is beautiful flashlight, well made, super sturdy and will make your flashlight friends jealous and leave your wife shaking her head as to why you needed another flashlight.

I think the color is lovely a nice change of pace from traditional black.

The L3 Wuben flashlight is currently my favorite medium-sized handheld flashlight. It feels great in the hand—compact, lightweight, and simply a pleasure to use.

The rear push-button switch is tactile and satisfying, allowing quick and easy brightness adjustments with just the right amount of pressure. The beam has a warm, yellow tint that’s easy on the eyes, yet when you need maximum output, a long press lights up the night sky with impressive intensity.

I highly recommend it as an emergency flashlight or a versatile everyday adventure light—its "Goldilocks" size strikes the perfect balance between portability and performance.

Wuben continues to impress me with their build quality and attention to detail. This flashlight easily rivals competitors that cost two to three times more. I highly recommend the L3—and honestly, anything from Wuben
