Klarus XT1A 2018 Upgraded

A thousand lumens on a single AA battery. That is what makes the XT1A interesting: it runs on its rechargeable battery, and it also works with a battery found in any grocery store.

Dual fuel

14500 lithium-ion battery, rechargeable via an integrated micro-USB port, or a standard AA battery. When traveling or off the grid, this flexibility is often worth more than a few extra lumens.

Modes

Three brightness levels and two signaling modes:

• High: 1000 lm, 182 m beam distance
• Medium: 80 lm
• Low: 5 lm
• Strobe: 1000 lm
• SOS: 80 lm

The LED is a CREE XP-L HD V6.

Direct access

The patented dual tactical switch provides one-touch shortcuts: direct strobe, direct turbo, momentary-on, direct low, and SOS.

Two customizable settings, tactical or outdoor. Direct low is what you use most: it prevents blinding yourself and ruining your night vision when turning it on.

Safety features

• Battery capacity indicator
• Advanced protection circuit
• ITS temperature protection
• Switch lockout
