Real beamshots of the MH12 PRO.
The MH12 PRO has double the beam distance of similar-sized 25mm bezel lights.
SUPER LONG RUNTIME - 4 hours and 30 minutes of runtime in at 1,200 lumens gets all of your tasks done with time to spare. The MH12 PRO runs up to 50 hours on low mode, making it a fantastic emergency light.
BUILT-IN QUICK CHARGE PORT - 3h 30min full charge with a 5,300mAh battery. This is the fastest built-in USB-C port charger ever seen on a flashlight.
BLINDING 3300 LUMEN BEAM - From the new UHi 40 LED. There's nothing like this on the market, it's the smallest, brightest most efficient LED of it's size. This amount of blinding brightness will disorientate anyone in front of you. It also shines through heavily tinted windows, smoke, and fog.
GRIPPY TEXTURE - The body has a new cross diagonal cutout design that stays gripping in wet weather and with gloves on.
PROXIMITY SENSOR - Lowers the brightness of the light when something is placed in front of it, and resumes it's brightness when it's clear. This stops any burning of holes in your pocket, bag or clothing.
NEW GEN2 HOLSTERS - Are lower profile, and take up less space on your belt. It compresses when not in use, compared to the old ones that flop around.
READY FOR ANYTHING - Waterproof and sealed down to 2m, the MH12 PRO can take on any climate. Advanced Temperature Regulation (ATR) technology ensures optimal performance based on the environment's temperatures.
What's the difference between lumen rating and candela rating?
While many companies tout high lumen lights as superior—suggesting brighter is always better—it can be misleading.
Lumens measure the total amount of light emitted from the LED or passing through the lens, indicating overall brightness, but that's only part of the picture.
Candela, on the other hand, measures how concentrated that light is at a specific distance, crucial for first responders and security professionals who need to focus intense light on a target for positive identification and situational awareness. High candela can even offer a non-lethal advantage by disorienting an aggressor.
Consider this simple test: your cellphone’s flashlight emits about 50 lumens, adequate for general tasks but ineffective in tactical situations. However, if you focus this light with a reflector, its candela increases significantly, enhancing its utility.
Similarly, the MH12 PRO doesn’t just provide a bright 3300 lumens; it also focuses this output into a powerful beam with over 63,500 candela, making it an optimal choice for precision tasks and defensive use at a distance.
