here are the rules for our shopping
spree number one it must be an actual
keychain light if there's no hole for
the keyring it's out regardless of the
size number two must be AAA powered
no coin sells number three all the
lights must come from bang good
seriously though all the lights in this
video are my picks based on my
experience and what I've read from other
flashlight forum members the links in
the description will be two banggood
because they chose the sponsor the video
and because I think they have good
prices on most lights so off we go first
in our lineup is the convoy tiny
stainless steel it's a sharp looking
light and the design kinda reminds me of
some of the custom lights that I've seen
not that I'm saying it rivals any of
those for quality but it just because of
the color and the machining on it it
kind of reminded me of that it uses a
cree XP to LED the batteries installed
from the tail on this one and it has a
twisty on-off head the hole and the tail
is large enough for a full sized keyring
it comes in three color temperatures and
I chose the warm the LEDs not quite
centered the head can be pretty sticky -
when I was fooling with it I actually
got it stuck so hard one time I had to
use pliers to unstick it it seems okay
now though I tested the output online
and I got thirty lumens which i think is
ideal for a triple-a single mode number
two is the Astrolux a01 the
finish is nice and the threads on it are
smooth as glass the o-ring is a perfect
fit - it provides just about the right
resistance that you'd want down the
barrel we've got a nichia 219b LED
an orange peel reflector the emitters
not quite perfectly centered on this one
either
it comes in seven body colours it does
fit our large key ring the user interface
is a low
medium-high and if you cycle through
that set twice you have a strobe for
high mode I got 102 lumens and for
Firefly on this one it was so low it
wouldn't even register in my lumen tube
the instructions say it's supposed to
have an on time memory function after 10
seconds but I tried on time off time
left time right time my time your time F
time bedtime and every other time I
could possibly think of and couldn't get
a memory all I ever got was next mode
memory and for me that's kind of a
problem for 3 the jetbeam u the
finish and the threads on this we're
good right resistance for the o-ring
plenty of room to twist the pocket clip
is a plus although I'd probably take it
off for a key light LED is an XP g2 and
with this one we get an optic I like the
beam from most of the newer optics user
interfaces of 3 mode with memory no
blinky modes on high it tested 110
lumens and on low I got 1.5 it seems to
have really robust looking internal
components a decent spring and the
driver looks good it does also fit our
large keyring number four is the lumen
top worm the finish is just okay right
out of the box I can see a few dings xpg
two LED with a nice orange peel
reflector LEDs perfectly centered the
pocket clips decent the rubber ring on
the head and a perfectly sized oring on
the neck make this one probably the
easiest twist of all the warm also comes
in seven color choices
these are interface on this one starts
at medium then goes low high and has no
memory in high mode I got 117 lumens and
in low I got 3 this one does not fit our
large keyring number 5 the crelant e3
oh look at that finish textured matte
black finish with what I'd call
spider-man knurling no rubber ring
needed there it has our oldest emitter
of the bunch XP II generation one kind
of a lot of space when that heads on I
guess it's okay though no Springs in
this one it's just foam threads they're
a little rough still good though the
user interface is high medium low strobe
no memory with this light I got 137
lumens on high and three on low and it
also claims that with a lithium-ion 10
440 it can get up to 300 lumens but I
didn't have that cell to try it
here's some side-by-side specs that I
came up with including the weight and
maximum and minimum outputs here's a
shot of the lights with the output set
to as close to equal as possible so that
you can see the beam profiles and
comparison of the colors
I know but how else do you record a
time-lapse relevant to your location at
your house the beam on the convoy is a
fairly tight hot spot with decent bright
spill it's not so bright in the center
that it splashes back in your eyes too
much though because of the lower output
of 30 lumens of the bunch it has
probably the most incandescent looking
light the Astra Lux with its Nakia 219 B
has just slightly warmer tint but still
great CRI I find the larger hotspot with
it to be nice to the jet beam you has my
favorite hot spot in the whole pack it's
just one large circle that's smooth and
even from edge to edge that we get from
that optic the worm has a pretty similar
beam shape to the convoy but has the
cooler tint and a higher output because
of the increased drive current the e3
has a good sized hotspot but to me kind
of feels like one of the better throwers
I didn't find the beam of any of them to
be overly ringy they were fairly smooth
in each case if I were to rank these in
order from greatest to least at least
from what I thought they would be this
is how I would have ranked them
except that because I got next mode
memory with my Astra lux I would have to
take this one from first and put it in
last position or really more like last
position I don't know if maybe I just
got a bad sample of this light or if
everybody has this I didn't spend as
much time reading about that one before
I ordered it as I should have
so if you have one please feel free to
share your thoughts on it or any of the
other lights or if there's something in
here that I missed a keychain light that
you think should have been in this
review please let us know for more

thanks for watching
good lucks number three number three all
the lights must be all the lights must
be purchased at vanga banggood or just
it bang bang good at number three all
the lights must cease
