2. LED Head with Adjustable Spot-to-Flood Focus & Candle Mode

The ML25LT 3C combines LED Heat-Sink technology with an adjustable focusing system. Turning the flashlight head changes the beam from a concentrated spot for longer-distance viewing to a broader flood for illuminating a wider nearby area.

The head also serves as the flashlight's operating control, providing simple twist-head ON/OFF operation and focusing without a separate push-button switch. Candle Mode adds hands-free area illumination by allowing the head to be removed and used as a base so the flashlight can stand vertically.
