Skilhunt

M200 V3 M200V3

A hidden gem in the budget flashlight space. The Skilhunt M200 V3 delivers 1,100 lumens with a high-CRI Samsung LH351D LED from a compact body that runs on 18650 or 18350 cells. The smooth ramping Anduril firmware gives you infinite brightness adjustment — ramp up from moonlight to turbo in a single press-and-hold. USB-C magnetic charging, IP68 waterproofing, and a thoughtful pocket clip make it a daily driver that punches above its weight. Popular on flashlight forums as the best sub-$30 EDC light available.
