Rechargeable Batteries?

Our next question comes to us from John in Michigan. He asks “Can we use rechargable batteries in the flashlight rather than ultracapacitors?”

Thanks John for the question! Let me list some of the reasons we have picked the advanced capacitors as the source of energy for our flashlight.

1. Recharges in 90 Seconds.
2. The advanced capacitors are better for the environment that batteries.
3. You can recharge the advanced capacitors more times (50,000 times)
4. Lighter weight
5. Advanced capacitors hold their charge where as batteries start to lose their potency the older they become.
6. Because no-one else is doing it!

Great question, keep them coming!

Rechargeable Batteries???

Many people are starting to ask, “Can I use rechargeable batteries in the flashlight?” Well the answer is simply, no. The reason is because 5.11 Tactical uses advanced capacitors to power the UC3.400 Light for Life Flashlight. As you know, this revolutionary technology is exclusive to our Light for Life Flashlight and no batteries are required for operation.
