Nano Torch Twist By Keysmart Having a "flashlight app" on your smartphone can often be handy, but it still falls well short of the power, functionality, and longevity of a dedicated flashlight. We've all had to rely on the stingy Led on a phone in less than desirable circumstances, and it can't be overstated how helpful a real flashlight can be in these scenarios. enter the nano torch twist from Keysmart. The great thing about flashlights in 2019 is that they have continued to evolve with lighting, charging, and material developments. no longer is a police- issued, 5-pound metal rod required to get a decent light, and you also don't need a fortune's worth of d batteries on hand at all times. the nano torch twist features a rechargeable battery, a maximum of 600 lumens of light, and multiple physical features inside it's 4.5" frame. the machined aluminum case gives the nano torch twist a very pleasant feel in the hand, but when you need your two hands, Keysmart has you covered. a removable belt clip can hold this 3.25 ounce flashlight anywhere, whether stashed in your pocket or strapped to your backpack. Of course, its eponymous twist action lets the head swivel for 90 degrees of illumination, which becomes even more versatile when paired with the nano torch twist's magnetic base. the powerful magnets in the base allow you to set it and forget it, leaving your hands free to do what they need to. After 7 hours, once the battery has drained thanks to one of the five light modes, its easily recharged via Micro UsB. the twist here (pun intended) is that the charging port is on the battery itself, and its shaped the same as a aa battery. Untwist the end, take out the battery, and plug a cord right in to start charging. Keysmart even includes a short charging cable, making this a great travel flashlight, or keep it in your car for emergency repairs. need more reasons to keep the nano torch twist with your essential travel gear? a strobe light and s.O.s. mode are built in for emergency situations. and at 600 lumens, they are hard to miss. When you have access to a decent flashlight, you'll realize how truly useful they are. With the advances in batteries and Leds, a feature-packed light like the nano torch twist is no longer a burden or a heavy afterthought. For more information, visit: www.getkeysmart.com
